I am sure there is a reason................


Red Star
The five-pointed red star, a pentagram without the inner pentagon, is a symbol of communism as well as broader socialism in general. It is sometimes understood to represent the five fingers of the worker's hand, as well as the five continents.

History
Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels used the red star as a symbol[citation needed]. It was also one of the emblems, symbols, and signals representing the Soviet Union under the rule and guidance of the Communist Party, along with the hammer and sickle. The star has since become a symbol representing socialism of all varieties.

I think you will find that

a) The rose is used by many european socialist parties.

b) The colour Red is often associated with left wing parties and Blue with right wing parties so what does that say about the Republican party.

Red Star is an authorised private army used certain people whom the UK/USA cannot deal directly with - mainly european mercenaries - small outfit can draw on about 5,000 specilised people - normally no more than 250 people at any one time

The US has its own version of this - but cannot remeber its name ...

Blackwater, GaryPanic.

I would also like to point out that Santa Claus does indeed endorse CoCa Cola and obelisks on Christian Temples are also representative of pagan sun worship.
