My auntie phoned my mum and asked me to take a photo of my Grandad with his medals from WW2.

Eight campaign six pointed stars were created for the 2nd World War (1939-1945)


Samanids

There's a six-pointed star on a Samanid coin. The dynasty of the Samanids ruled in Persia during 9th - 10th centuries. 

Early Christians

I read three very thought provoking points on Israel Today from Sunday, October 09, 2005
1. 
- Is the Star of David an occult Symbol   
If the Star of David is an occult symbol, then so is every snowflake

2.
Because Yeshua (Jesus) was from the House of David, the Star of David served as a symbol to the early Christians of the link with their Jewish brothers

3.
During the reign of the Third Reich in Germany, the Star of David was labeled an occult symbol. This caused many Christians to refrain from trying to save Jews because they didn’t want to come under occult influences from the Jewish Star they wore

Star of David Dance

Magen David Dance is quite a rare phenomenon. It makes one think why is it so rare. It seems that for some mysterious reason we are not at ease with out national simbol - we have no songs about it, nor musicals nor symphony nor dances. I asked several musicians to write a special piece dedicated to  the Magen David. I'll update you if it happens.

Anti-Semites: Jewish StarThis is how The Star of David is viewed by anti-semites: on the head of the "Jewish Snake" that strangles the world. Photo is of the Brazilian edition of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, 1937. Source: Poliakov, Leon (1997). It is copied from Wikipedia.
The Magen David is hated by some in the same intensity it is loved by others. No wander it is the symbol of the unifying of the opposites...

Now that mobile phone are so common it will be interesting to follow if people start showing their Magen Davids on their mobiles instead of on their necks...
