Note, this isn't a satanic symbol, which would be this upside-down. My point is that now every religion is going to want its own symbol as part of the Red Cross, and where will that end?

I'm not aware of any religions affiliated with the International Red Cross, though you're welcome to educate me. I suppose it will end when sovereign nations cease using the symbols of "new religions".

BTW, a clue as to why the MDA uses that symbol.

As you may have read, the Red Cross came from the Swiss flag inverted, not as a religious organization. Then the Muslims want their own because they don't like the cross. Now the Jews want their own as an official part of the Red Cross. Next the [insert religion here]. The Red Cross was good enough with just the cross.

No slight intended against the great work of Magen David Adom.

I believe the Red Crescent is already.

[ The red crescent, along with the Red Lion and Sun of Iran, was enshrined with the red cross in the Geneva conventions of 1929.]

Is the Red Cross really trustworthy? I have read on two occasions that they kept donated monies for their own use and that they have a checkered past being closer to some of America's enemies than to us.
