1. "Crossroads of Europe," right?
Everybody knows Jesus was crucified on an X.

2. I think the Swiss have the right to use the Swiss Army Knife logo as their flag...

It is a sovereign nation.

3. I thought the Crescent was the symbol of Islam..
As in the New Moon, the first sighting of which begins Ramadan, IIRC..

I was not aware that Switzerland had banned the public display of the Crescent Moon.

You learn something new every day on DU.
