Last Tuesday (July 22, 2014) morning, it was discovered that someone had removed the American flags atop the Brooklyn Bridge in New York and replaced them with white flags. (See Trail Dust’s post on this here.)
The white flag is an internationally recognized symbol of military surrender. The first mention of the usage of white flags to surrender was made during ancient China’s Eastern Han dynasty (A.D 25–220).
Finally, the identity of the perpetrator of this heinous act has been uncovered by @RudyHavenstein! LOL
