BOOGA BOOGA!

Scary, isn't it? No? Probably because that's the very non-scary Sudanese flag.

This is the Palestinian flag.

So much scarier!

I think that it’s the red arrow that does it. So much scarier than a green one.

/s

Although if you think that flag is scary, the Kuwaiti flag has a fucking trapezoid on it!

And I thought they were supposed to be on our side!

Wait until you see the Nepalese flag. It's not even a rectangle!

(It's also the only flag in the world to be mathematically defined by its country's constitution)

That's like, half a hexagon! Truly terrifying

If I was Israeli I may be afraid of someone wearing a Palestinian flag tshirt. Also the other way around. Seems reasonable.

Why?

If my country was at war with another, of course I’d be afraid of their supporters
