I agree. I understand that there was a crowd photo where everyone was giving the “devil” hand sign.
Also look at the name of the band “EAGLES of death”. For me that is a warning that the United States is on the verge of dying. Eagle is a symbol of our nation, is God trying to tell us something?
The "Devil sign" was popularized by Ronnie James Dio when he took over as the lead singer for Black Sabbath after the departure of Ozzy Osbourne. Ozzy used to flash a peace sign during concerts and Ronnie wanted to keep some continuity in the show without it looking like he was just trying to be an Osbourne clone. He borrowed the hand sign from his Italian Grandmother where using it to ward off Malocchio, the evil eye, was commonly used. So it became popular basically because it was easy to do and looked cool to the audience. The only connection to Satan was made by people who were totally clueless but wanted to find a way to disparage a type of music they didn't like.
“Also look at the name of the band “EAGLES of deathâ€. For me that is a warning that the United States is on the verge of dying.”
I think it is a spoof on the country rock band “The Eagles” who are roundly hated by metal types.
Wherever we(govt)perform, death and chaos follow.
Benghazi for example. Syria.
The fans flashing the devil sign are the pro govt people.
This is just a weird thing that just popped into my head when I read your post.
The world is burning.
I’m not blaming America or the military.
Our government issues the orders and mucks it all up with lies and obfuscation so nobody really knows whats going on.
Or maybe it’s just business as usual muslims gone wild.
Could be a mixture of both.
Um.... Their band name is a joke. One of them said they would be a death metal band, and the other said, “Yeah, the Eagles of death metal!” The Eagles band being a lighter, mellow per version of rock.
