Couldn't it be the Texan lone star?

The problem with that, is that the star is red. The people who designed this symbol weren't dumb enough to do something like that accidentally. Typically a lot of thought/research goes into designing something significant like this.

Also, there wouldn't be a reason to use the Texan star in the SoTU stuff.

Wow, now that is interesting! Almost too much to believe. The airplane and the twin towers. The communist star. I'm completely dumbfounded.

Thanks for sharing that!

I think youre right about people taking more notice or even allowing yourself more aware, theres nothing wrong with that. The point is that i admit i hadnt noticed it so youve done a good thing even if its me that has been offered another perspective. As for been a ufo nut.....theres 2 of us
coz i am too. Last night seen something trippy about 11pm looked like a star then looked like a helicopter it sat for around an hour an a half. Through my telescope looked like different semi transparent lights, i dont know what it was. I popped into the house when i came back it was gone. I cant see a helicopter hovering for an hour or so and also having no noise. The video on the phone shows absolutly jack, not a thing. I`ll be watching tonight though. The problem is the fact i live in an urban area and as well as the street lights spoiling it theres also the fear of a neighbour seeing me with a telescope pointing over their house
It doesnt look good

I was thinking of putting together an entire thread linking the communist star with all the intel that has come up regarding China's activities as of late. I decided not to. Instead, I'll just post on this thread since it's already started.

It is my opinion that there is more going on than meets the eye. If you notice, there are constantly articles regarding China on ATS. Also, a lot of our products in this nation come from China. China owns our currency if you really think about it. And Obama's bow made headlines. (though the more dramatic bow was to the Japanese leader)

So food for thought.

Are we already owned by China? We're certainly "waving" their star in the MSM. And in Obama's logo.

Give me some thoughts regarding this.

Well spotted though i cant say i would have noticed


I was going to mention this, the star and target was AF symbology that came over from the RAF, during WW1 when at the end the AF was finally gaining its own ground as a branch of the US military. The star has been used for Millenium now as a symbol of courage reach and protection, no suprise the mind power scared
Soviets adopted it as a banner, it almost scream "No more Rasputin!!!" the Russians have never gotten over Rasputin and his alleged hypnotic powers. The star as a symbol is something to reach for, a symbol of hope, the US has always had stars, but lately the single star, single world, single world credit organization. One path focus on it. that is what it means to me.
I've always found it funny that the symbol of the Hexagram has gone from protection symbol, to symbol of evil and those allied with it, to a symbol of freedom and, ipso facto, protection once again.

Dont be led see with your own eyes. Walk your own path. and always, always cross reference

Hi, I sincerely appreciate your thoughts on what the star means. And I am honestly not trying to offend you or say you're statement is false, but do you have any sources to back up the meaning you're claiming?

When I looked up the meaning of the red star, I found nothing that indicates hope, freedom, courage, etc. The only meanings I found were communism.

America does use stars. I understand that. But never red stars.

Regarding the red star


This image shows (or resembles) a symbol that was used by the Communist government of the Soviet Union, Soviet-installed communist governments in Europe elsewhere, or organizations closely associated to them, or parties which have been banned in their respective countries. The use of this insignia may be illegal in Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia and Poland, depending on context. In Hungary, the applicable law is the Hungarian Criminal Code 269/B.§ (1993).

More On Red Star

In some countries it's even illegal. I don't see it being used as a symbol of courage or anything positive. If you look through that page, at the bottom it has links. 95% or more of those links are regarding communism.

C'mon you guys, give me a reason to believe our country isn't being handed to communists. Or already belonging to socialism.

To be honest, I'm shocked this thread isn't getting way more attention. It's not just any symbol we're talking about. They're waving the symbol for communism/socialism right in our faces.

So basically, it's either communist or still it points to the NWO. Nice. I think this should be far more important to everyone.

If you go to the Truth Seeker forum

and look down the sidebar (I think)

you'll find a series of archived articles by the now-deceased Joe Vialls

In one of his articles, he spends a lot of time on the 'star' symbology

At the time he wrote it (at least four years ago) he was referring in particular to US vehicles (tanks, etc.) in Iraq

He includes diagrams to illustrate how the symbology is subliminal in many instances. It's a very good read

Ok. And here are the Joe Vialls archived articles

...you chose to accept that meaning of a red star, so the problem is yours to fix...

...there is no symbol that has not been used many times in many different ways... ie: christianity uses the cross as its symbol - nazis use the swastika... neither group created their chosen symbol... neither group force you to only see their meaning of their chosen symbol (although many would if they could) - but - like with the swastika, far too many people prefer to only see the most current or most negative interpretation of a symbol... the same is true of the red star, a triangle, a circle, a pentagram or any other shape including an eye, nose or penis...

I completely get what you're saying. It's a matter of perception, but that doesn't remove the meaning of the symbol. You don't see everyday people walking around with nazi symbols on their clothes, or satanists with crosses on their shirts. (unless their upside down)

The point is, the symbol has been adopted. It belongs. And in this case, no one but the communist/socialist countries are using it. None of the research I found revealed anything but communist/socialist.

Now, I won't claim I know all. But saying that the symbol is just a symbol. Well, I'm not buying that. They know what they're doing. The real problem... is that some people are choosing NOT to see it for what it is.

...agreed...
...so why do you believe that one interpretation of that symbol trumps all other interpretations?...



You don't see everyday people walking around with nazi symbols on their clothes, or satanists with crosses on their shirts. (unless their upside down)


...whom do you consider "everyday people"?... those that believe / dress / look like you?... are you one of those "hive / collective / we're all one" types?... thats simplistic communism, ya know, lmao...

...what do you consider nazi symbols?... the swaztika?... phoenix rising?... those symbols had other meanings long before the nazi culture came along and adopted those symbols... have you ever considered that promoting the mindset that the nazi interpretations of those symbols are the only valid one = endorsing the nazi culture?... if not, well, maybe you should...

...lets pretend you enter my house and notice several paintings: one is a red star - one is a swastika - one is a cross - one is a big eye on a triangle... do you automatically presume that i'm a communist / socialist, nazi, christian, nwo-supporter?... i have a great big red setting sun too... would you also attribute that symbolism to an ethnic or political system?... ever hear lucinda williams' song "big red sun blues"?...



The point is, the symbol has been adopted. It belongs.


...adoption does not eradicate previous meanings, other current meanings or future meanings...




And in this case, no one but the communist/socialist countries are using it. None of the research I found revealed anything but communist/socialist.


...if thats all you found, you werent looking for anything other than what you wanted to find... if you abhore communism or socialism, why are you endorsing / promoting / supporting those concepts by pushing the view that the meanings behind their choice of symbolism is the only one that matters?...



But saying that the symbol is just a symbol. Well, I'm not buying that.


...doesnt produce enough paranoia, huh?...




They know what they're doing.


...but do you know what you're doing?...



The real problem... is that some people are choosing NOT to see it for what it is.



...funny... imo, that aptly describes you...


...its your choice to perceive a symbol any way you choose to, including refusing to recognize that there is not just one meaning and that no meaning is superior to another...

...that you insist the only valid meaning is the one you approve of makes me wonder why you're honoring political systems that scare you by helping to spread the concept that a particular symbol is theirs and theirs alone or that their adoption of that symbol eradicates all other meanings...

First of all allow me to apologize if I come as being a close minded person who is unwilling to accept correction. I will be one of the first to admit when I'm wrong. I was certainly not trying to paint the picture that I am a fear mongering, political agenda pushing person who can't stand to be wrong. Actually, I appreciate intelligence and correction.

What I was trying to say, and apparently failed at, was that I didn't agree with your theories. Not because they were wrong, but because they didn't fit in with why they're using the symbols behind the capital building and in the SoTU logo. It just doesn't make sense to me. I mean, I could be wrong. And if I am, great. But if I'm not, shouldn't people be paying attention?

If you can do me the favor of finding out exactly why they're placing the most common symbol of communism in their logo, I will apologize, and thank you for helping me understand.

Also, looking for the answer to this logo is the only reason I made this thread. I simply want to understand what their reason was. I don't think it's "just because". I believe there is a reason.

So... what do you believe is their reason?
