I think this logo is brilliant since the eye captures the colorful parts and the Star of David, which is hiding colorless in the center and it takes a while until you notice it - Wow!

Ship Called You Do Not Frighten Us

A piece of history (with a Magen David):

Kach Party Logo

Kach Party Logo Shield of David Photo was taken by Asa Winstanley in Hebron.
No wonder the logo of the Kach Party is based on the Shield of David, since Rabbi Kahana, its founder, started his activity in the USA in the Jewish Defense League and Shield of David means defense (as the second word in the name of the Jewish Defense League proves), and it’s also the main emblem that stands for the word "Jewish".
