You need to make up your mind. Is the pattern of stars a Jewish symbol, or a Masonic one?

13 is a Masonic number and the stars arranged in the pattern of the Jewish symbol.
Coincidence?
I doubt it, since Jews influence and run America!

I
sorta doubt that it's both.

Can you think of ANY other way to arrange 13 stars in a circular pattern? Yes, this is a math
test. Try it out. The pattern is radially symetrical, bilaterally symetrical, 6-laterally
symectrical, remains visibly balanced at any angle of rotation divisible by 30 degrees, and more.

And the people who helped develop the symbols and icons which represent the US included folks who
liked and understood geometry and mathematics. Folks like Franklin (a scientist/inventor),
Jefferson (an architect), and Washington (a surveyor).

I suspect that the pattern is also a kind of cultural Rorschach test. What you see in it has more to do with your own bias and bigotry than with the attitudes or intentions of the people who invented the symbol.
