An artistic protest against the world's self declared police. Notice the rocket shaped pedestal, the rocket crown, the chains, the crucifix, the swastika, the David star, etc. I don't know where did Ramon Arellano get this information... For me the appearance of Swastika and Star of David together is enough to bring this photo to your attention...
