Strongest Versus Weakest
ATR commented jewishanswers.org:
The star is reaching out in all directions and anchored by a central point, I would surmise to be the Torah. Each of the six lines of the star is attached to another, and stands upon a foundation. The whole star system is very powerfully supported in its design.
You might contrast this with a swastika, which also has six lines, and without support or anchor. The Mogen Dovid is the strongest and most supportive thing you can do with six lines. The swastika is the weakest.

Stop Learn Math
On March 2nd, 2007, Patung wrote in Cities & Regions, News, Java, that:
The head of the organizing committee of the PKS, in… East Java, one Ach Ready, has threatened to erase some kind of artwork, perhaps a mural, at the Adipura park in the city, which he says is a six sided star and therefore looks like the Star of David on the flag of Israel.There were 28 Comments to this article among them was this one which I liked the most:
Dimp Says:
I think they will not learn math as well as the triangle clearly part of the star of David, and next they will eradicate the color blue as this is also the color of star of David, next the word star will be eradicated, and demanding people with the name of David to change their name.

Thought Provoking Idol
This is one of the most thought provoking images I ever saw!
What is My National Emblem doing on the heart of this Idol?
What whould have been the decision of the first Zionist delegates who chose this emblem to represent their movement if they saw this photo before voting?
How does an anti Israeli thug react when he sees this Heart Chakra?
