I see that point, but I ask how many people also unite under the U.S. Flag for the same thing, thinking that Americans are only white, and every one else is a foreigner? And how many terrorists use their countries flag thinking that they are the ones who will deliver their country from foreign influence. Think about it. It isn't a racist symbol, it a symbol of historical value being desecrated by racists. So they are thieves in addition to racists.
