So,,,,let them, does anyone care? Only by careful manipulation can the word zion be formed from the logo.
This is just a case of them jumping on the discrimination wagon. What next I wonder,will we be barred from using words like black, brown etc. in case it offends some idiot in a far off land?
I’m sure the games will proceed quite well without them.
