Historical Flags of Our Ancestors - Flags of Extremism - Part 1 (a-m)
The "Shield" Banner
(Bordered Variant)
The AN flag has appeared in both a square and rectangular shape, and is sometimes displayed with a gold fringe when used indoors. The square variant is called the Aryan Nations "Shield" and was carried in demonstrations in the form of a vertical banner. The AN also used a stripped version of the AN flag, as well as re-purposing for their demonstrations the more traditional Confederate Naval Ensign, the Christian Church Flag, and various versions of the Confederate Stars and Bars. The Aryan Nations also uses several white fielded flags: the first charged with "The Shield" and the second charged with an alternate emblem (sword over the letter N, both in blue, surrounded with a bicolor ring, top half of which is red and charged with the inscription ARYAN NATIONS, and bottom half is blue and charged with the inscription OUR RACE IS OUR NATION; the tip of the sword is set over the bottom of the ring, dividing it into two).
  
CFPA Security Service Flag #2
   
CFPA Security Service Flag #3
During the CFPA's active existence, their private militia security force called FALSEC (Falangist Security) has used three different flags. These were produced as a part of a whole range of flags, including a naval flag, called "jack" before the 2003 flag change and "ensign" afterwards, and a standard for the Directors (national and state heads of the party) since 2007.  Probably the strangest flag was "The flag we can never use", which was declared as banned on the party website because its design resembled some far-right flags too closely and might have misled visitors to attribute the site to a neo-Nazi group.
   
Golden Dawn Banner
Also used by Unit 88 (New Zealand)
The Prasini Pteryga (Green Wing) is an ecologist organization founded by members of the youth wing of the Golden Dawn. It uses a green flag, charged with a white Celtic Cross with outer white and inner green fimbriations.
A new flag appearing in 2010 has blue field and is charged with a smaller maeandros (meander) within a wreath, between the inscriptions LAIKOS SYNDESMOS (People's Association) and H RYSI AYGI (Golden Dawn), possibly now the official name of the organization.
Another Golden Dawn flag (Variant #5), using a combination of a football (soccer) club colors (orange and blue), is now used by some fans of the Apoel Football Club of Nicosia, Cyprus.  This is an example of how ultra-rightists attempt to infiltrate normal society, and by introducing their flag to football fans as a non-political symbol, it provides them with a valuable tool of later indoctrination.
   
   
Meander Variant 2012 (use unverified)
Two new Golden Dawn flags were introduced in 2011 and 2012. The first is charged with a large letter epsilon within a wreath, all black with white fimbriations, on a dark red field. The letter epsilon probably stands either for Ellas (Greece), Ethnos (Nation), or Ethnikismos (Nationalism). The second Golden Dawn flag appeared in 2012 and has a black Meander symbol with white fimbriations placed on a red shield with white border, all centered within a red wreath on a black field. "Golden Dawn" (in Greek) is spelled in red block letters directly below the wreath. Note: This second may only be an illustration used for Golden Dawn articles, its actual use as a flag is unverified.
In late 2013, a new flag with meander within a wreath, surrounded with the full name of the party, has appeared. Its field is red and the charges are black, fimbriated white. The earliest photos can be found is also being increasingly used abroad, by ultra-rightists wishing to show the support to like-minded "persecutees", considering the criminal charges against the party and its members, a number of which was brought since 2012, merely as the "persecution" campaign.
GR Flag
Green Rights (Belgium)
Groen Rechts
The Groen Rechts (GR) is an Ecologist ultra-rightist organization. The Green Rights website contains almost no information about the group, although since the logo of N-SA appears at the bottom of all the pages it suggests that members of the Nieuw-Solidaristisch Alternatief (Neo-Solidarist Alternative Movement) must have founded the GR. The flag of the Green Rights, with its black Celtic cross on a green field, also further suggest ties between two organizations.
The Groen Rechts green flag has been prominently displayed at various Flemish rightist demonstrations in recent years, suggesting an active membership in the area.
Hammerskin-Crew 38 Flag
Confederate Hammerskin Flag
Hammerskin Nation (USA)
The Hammerskins, or Hammerskin Nation, are a white supremacist group formed in 1988 by Sean Tarrant in Dallas, Texas.  Their primary focus seems to be the production and promotion of white power rock music, and many white power bands claim affiliation with them. The Hammerskins host several annual concerts, including the "Summer of Hate" concert and the "Hammerfest" in honor of deceased Hammerskin Joe Rowan, the lead singer of the band Nordic Thunder, which has become an annual event in both the United States and Europe.
The Anti-Defamation League describes them as the best-organized neo-Nazi skinhead group in the United States. They claim six chapters in the United States: The Northwestern Hammerskin Chapter (NWHS), Western Hammerskin Chapter (WHS), Confederate Hammerskins (CHS), Northern Hammerskin Chapter (NHS), Eastern Hammerskin Chapter (EHS), and the Midland Hammerskins (MHS). The ISVG (Institute for the Study of Violent Groups) says the movement is now international, with chapters existing in Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. According to them there are about 200 members with group affiliations with the Aryan Nations, Ku Klux Klan, National Alliance, Vinlanders, Volksfront, and White Aryan Resistance. The Hammerskins also have what they call supporter chapters, known as Crew 38, for non-members who support their activities.
The Hammerskins logo, "depicting two claw hammers crossed to resemble goose-stepping legs," is based on the 1982 film Pink Floyd The Wall. Their logos and motto "Hammerskins Forever, Forever Hammerskins" (HFFH) often appear on their buttons, T-Shirts, posters and tattoos. Crew 38 and Hammerskins members also frequently identify themselves with the slogan "838," meaning "hail the crossed hammers" (the acronym HCH translates into the eighth, third, and eighth letters of the alphabet).
The first Hammerskin flag shown here was used at the Summer of Hate concert, organized by the Western Hammerskins, the Southern California branch of The Hammerskin Nation.  The second flag design has been also used as a badge and logo, and the Confederate Hammerskin flag has also reportedly been used as a square wall banner.
HDJ Flag
German Youth Loyal to the Homeland (Germany)
Heimattreue Deutsche Jugend (HDJ)
The Heimattreue Deutsche Jugend (HDJ) is a neo-Nazi youth association offering Hitler youth-style camping holidays and other youth activities for children and young people that attempts to familiarize participants with Nazi thinking and teach children, as young as six, that foreigners and Jews are a threat to the nation, leading them into right-wing extremism.
The HDJ emerged from the "League of Youth Loyal to the Homeland - Free League" (Bund Heimattreuer Jugend - Freibund), an organization originating in late 1950s that was based on the traditions of early 20th-century German youth movements, and co-operated closely with the Viking Youth and other neo-Nazi organizations until the late 1980s when it began distancing from them, causing its most extreme members to break away in 1990 and found "The Youth Loyal to the Homeland" (Die Heimattreue Jugend), renamed the HDJ in 2000.
Involvement of Viking Youth members in their activities, as well as the members' participation in acts of violence, resulted first in a ban on wearing uniforms in 2007, which they declared they wouldn´t obey, and eventually by the complete banning of the group itself in 2009. The HDJ website claimed it fought "for an independent Germany, for traditional values and for a lifestyle reflected in a healthy body, spirit and character. It also [fought] the use of English in the German mother tongue." Its newspaper "Firebrand" (Funkenflug) had a subtitle "Young, Stormy, Loyal to the People."
Since it is illegal to display Nazi symbols in Germany, the HDJ´s flag features a stylized campfire,  but maintains the traditional national socialist colors of red, black and white. On some reported variants of the flag a caption in a red ribbon is located below the campfire reading Heimattreue Deutsche Jugend (German Youth Loyal to the Homeland).
IE Flag
Empire Europe (Malta)
Imperium Europa (IE)
Empire Europe, more commonly called Imperium Europa, is a far-right Maltese political party, founded in 2000 by racist Norman Lowell. Its primary aim is to unite Europe into one political unit as a homeland for white people, organized similarly to the Holy Roman Empire, but ruled by "The Elite." Their goal is to see Europe "liberated from the enemy within and the enemy without." Lowell's beliefs were first published in an article, titled "Our Age", published in The Times of Malta in 1981. Their propaganda is written for those Lowell calls "Radical-Racialist-Right-Revolutionary-Reactionaries."
Although the IE uses a symbol of a gold lightning bolt superimposed on a orange red filibrated sun called "The Lightning and the Sun" as a logo, they use a Nazi-style flag, with a black Maltese cross replacing the swastika.  The earliest appearances of these flags are in videos released by the party in 2012, so that year is probably when this flag was adopted. More recently, the Maltese Civil Ensign (a white Maltese Cross centered on a red field bordered with white) has been modified with a black cross replacing the white one, and has been reported in use at demonstrations.
IFL Flag
Imperial Fascist League (United Kingdom)
This was the flag of the Imperial Fascist League (IFL) a British Fascist movement led by Arnold Spencer Leese between 1928 until 1939. The IFL was a small group with never more than a few hundred members. They wore black shirts and were organized for street battles. Initially, they used the fasces as a symbol, but adopted the swastika superimposed on the Union Flag after Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany.
The group was in harsh competition with the British Union of Fascists, and more than once there were street battles between the two extremist groups. Eventually, the BUF proved too strong, and by 1939, the IFL had largely disappeared. Their flag regained brief notoriety when a picture of it being used in a 1938 pro-nazi demonstration in London was re-published in a 1997 edition of Newsweek magazine. The IFL flag variant, modified with text, was adopted by the new National Socialist Movement - Britanna (NSM).
INP Flag (Type #1)
Nationalist Party (Iceland)
Flokkur Þjóðernissinna
Nationalist Party was founded in 1934 by fusion of the Icelandic Nationalist Movement (Þjóðhreyfing Íslendinga), founded in 1933, and their breakaway members - the original Nationalist Party. The party believed in Aryan supremacy and anti-Semitism, and intended to make Iceland a Corporativist state, but never developed a personality cult of a supreme leader. The membership never exceeded 450. The British invasion of Iceland in World War II in 1940 caused a mass exit from the party which was officially disbanded in 1944. In Iceland today, membership in the Nationalist Party is a matter of embarrassment and very few objects, including the party flags, have been saved, except perhaps by a small number of collectors who are interested in this period of Icelandic history.
The Nationalist Party used two different flags in national colors. The first flag added the swastika to the 19th Century proposal from which the national flag was derived. The swastika was placed on a white diamond, conjoined with the cross into a single charge. The second flag had a typical Nazi design, with red swastika on a white disk in center of blue field.
IPGB Flag)
Integralist Party of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (United Kingdom)
The Integralist Party of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, founded by Robert Stead and Benjamin Noyles, is a small political movement in Great Britain that seems to be a strange combination of neo-Fascistism, localism, traditionalism, trade unionism, corporatism, and environmentalism. It combines elements of both the political left and right, but claims not to be racist, although they do oppose mass immigration and what they call the EU "straightjacket." They see the nation as an organic unity, and feel that there has been a social, political, and economic decline suffered in Great Britain that must be corrected.
Their flag has a green lightning-bolt or thunderbolt on a white circle, called "the lightning in the sun," placed on a plain green field. The Integralist claims their symbol is a modern adaptation of the British Union of Fascist’s "action within unity" symbol, and although clearly derived from the BUF flag, the flag´s designer, Benjamin Noyles, once claimed the symbol isn't neo-Fascist in nature.
IAMF Flag
Iranian Aryan National Front (Iran)
Jebhe Nasionalisti-ye Iranian-e Arya
The Jebhe Nasionalisti-ye Iranian-e Arya (IAMF) is an ultra-nationalistic organization with Iranian national ideals as its prerogative.  They emphasize Aryan Values and are definitely in support of the concept of Aryan Racial superiority.
Although the Iranian Aryan National Front is a new organization, they do supports a website with their views, agenda, and articles in a semi-organized format.
IBDA-C Flag
Great Eastern Islamic Raiders' Front (Turkey)
Islami Büyükdogu Akincilar Cephesi
The Great Eastern Islamic Raiders' Front is an Islamic militant hate group that follows the teachings of Necip Fazil Kisakürek and his racial hate philosophy of Büyük Dogu (Great East). The group's goal is to create a new Sunni Caliphate in the Middle East. They claim credit for attacks on Shia, Alevi, Christian, and Jewish diplomatic, business, and religious interests in Istanbul. The group has defiantly moved from rhetoric to violence and is credited with a series of 90 bombings and attacks in the 1990s.
The flag of IBDA-C is blue with three white crescents arranged in a triangular pattern at hoist. The inner crescent is accompanied by a white 5-pointed star.
INSM Flag
Iranian National Socialist Movement (Iran)
Jonbesh-e Nasional Sosialist-e Iran
The Jonbesh-e Nasional Sosialist-e Iran (INSM) is the latest addition to the Internet-based National Socialist organizations of Iran. Although the organization is Iranian, strangely enough they use the English script letters "INSM" centered on their flag standing for "Iranian National Socialist Movement."
The background colors on the flag (red-brown-black gold clockwise) are the colors used on the Derafsh-e-Kaviani, the oldest Persian flag dating back to the Persian empire. According to legend, it had be made of a long rectangular leather apron used by national hero Kaveh the iron smith during the reign of King Fereidoun, and mounted on a spear.  This leather banner became the symbol of Iranian independence, resistance, resilience and the revolutionary momentum of the masses revolt against evil invaders.   Today it is known as the"Glorious Flag" of Iran.
INBP Flag (Type #1)
Israeli National Bolshevik Party (Israel)
also National Bolsheviks of Israel
The Israeli National Bolshevik Party is a strange contradictory one.  National Bolsheviks in other countries generally have an anti-Zionist and pro-Palestinian attitude, but their Israeli counterparts are openly Zionist and frequently co-operate with other extreme Zionist groups. They also claim the heritage of Poalei Zion and other Jewish leftist organizations from the Russian  Empire (most of their members are immigrants from ex-USSR countries). They also frequently express  the solidarity with the "repressed" Russian NazBols, but generally seem not to be very close with most  of their European counterparts, who, as mentioned, are generally very anti-Zionist and pro-Palestinian.
According to the INBP itself: "Israel was invented and founded by Red Zionists geopolitically as part of Eurasia, from the beginning oriented towards the Eurasian continent and developed as a Red proletarian communal republic. We, the National Bolsheviks of Israel, see our global mission in the resurrection and reworking of the idea of very great social justice for the Workers of Zion in the context of an interconnection with Russian National Bolshevism and the construction of a single imperial state free from the tyranny of globalism."
Along with their Type#1 flag, the party sometimes also uses the "generic" National Bolshevik flag (Type #2) with the hammer and sickle on a white disc. However, it seems to be done quite rarely, mostly because the Nazi-looking design of the flag, which must be quite unpopular in Israel.
French Nationalist Party
Roussillon Branch
The Irminsul Symbol
Irminsul (mighty pillar) is a Germanic neo-pagan symbol frequently used by the neo-Nazis. The name originated in old Saxony for a wooden pillar or tree trunk used as a place of worship. Little is known about their exact appearance, but the modern symbol is generally based on a 12th Century relief carved at the Externsteine Rock Formation near Detmold, Germany. The symbol, which vaguely resembles a palm tree, was first described as an "irminsul" in 1929 by archaeologist Wilhelm Teudt. He believed that the Externsteine site was a place of worship to commemorate the victory of Christianity over paganism. While no evidence exists to support his hypothesis, it caught on among the neo-Nazis.
This flag used by the French Nationalist Party in Roussillon, France, provides an example of the use of the irminsul by extremist.  Their flag depicts a white irminsul symbol within a white ring, placed on a black field.
JAU Flag
Army of the Nation (Palestine)
Jaysh al Ummah
The Army of the Nation is a small terrorist group based in the southern Gaza town of Khan Yunis and led by a man known only as Abu Hafss.  The armed members of this group wear black robes over black pants with red or black "death squad" headbands. The group considers themselves "brothers" of the al-Qaida terror network and threaten not only to operate in the Giza-Tel Aviv  area, but "God willing" to take the fight to Washington. Hamas has supported and allowed such extremist groups as the JUA to train openly in Palestine.
Abu Hafss's group has claimed responsibility for several recent mortar and rocket attacks on Israeli border communities, and is one of several small al-Qaida-inspired groups, such as the Army of the Nation and the Army of Islam, that have emerged in Gaza in recent years as the area goes deeper into poverty, which, of course, creates fertile ground for such militant groups.
Kahane Chai Flag
There several variants of this flag with various customized inscriptions in use.
The "Thus Kahane Lives" Movement (Israel)
Kach Kahane Chai
The Kach Movement began as a far right political party in Israel, founded by Rabbi Meir Kahane in the early 1970s. It was barred from participating in elections after 1988 under Israeli elections laws that banned parties that incited racism. In 1990, Kahane was assassinated after making a speech in New York City.
After Kahane's assassination the party split with the Kahane Chai breaking away from the main Kach faction. Both the Kach and Kahane Chai Movements were banned outright in 1994, and today, both groups are considered terrorist organizations by Israel, Canada, the European Union, and the United States.
The group has been responsible for using explosives that has done damage to property, including an attempt to car bomb a Palestinian girls school in East Jerusalem, threatening and conspiring to carry out assassinations, and for soliciting funds and members for terrorist organizations.  Splinter groups of the Kach now include the Kahane Chai Organization in the USA and the Ligue de Défense Juive in France.
Knight's Party Flags
(Variants for wall hanging)
Knights' Party (USA)
The Knight's Party is now a registered political party whose purpose is to provide an avenue for the members of the Ku Klux Klan (see below) to run as political candidates in elections.  They host a new look for their website and now claim to be "peacefully" seeking to abolish all discriminatory affirmative action programs.  They wish to become known as the "White Rights Movement" and consider themselves as "the Last Hope for America." They are still in the same old business, but trying for a newer more "politically correct" look.
  
Knight's Party Flag with border
  
Knight's Party Flag without border
This new flag is clearly inspired by the traditional National Socialists design, but instead of white disc with a black swastika, it has a white diamond enclosing a black Sun Wheel. Flag variants include diamonds with black borders or without borders.
The Blood Drop Flag
The Sun Wheel Flag
Knights of the Ku Klux Klan (USA)
The Blood Drop symbol is most often used by various Klan organizations throughout the United States.  Usually at clan rallies there are actually a lot more United States Flags displayed than KKK flags, despite their very un-American racial beliefs.
The Ku Klux Klan was established in Tennessee in 1866. Most of the leaders were former members of the Confederate Army and the first Grand Wizard was Nathan Forrest, a confederate general during the American Civil War. In the late 1800s and early 1900s Clansmen wearing masks, white cardboard hats and draped in white sheets, have been responsible for torturing and killing black Americans and sympathetic whites.  The Civil Rights movement of the 1960s prompted a modern rebirth of the Ku Klux Klan activities that has persisted until the present day.
  
  
KKK-White Power-CSA
The variant KKK flag (red-white-red background with the center Blood Drop symbol) is commonly called the "Duke Flag" named for neo-Nazi, turned clan leader, David Duke. David Duke was also shown in KKK broadcast with a red flag (complete with centered white disk and black Sun Wheel) hanging on a wall behind him, apparently a holdover from his neo-Nazi days.
In addition to the American and Confederate flags, there is a KKK "White Power" flag with fist emblem centered on a black field, that occasionally appears at Clan rallies. A new, but undocumented flag is a KKK/White Power/CSA Flag currently being sold.
NOKKKK Flag
New Order Knights of the Ku Klux Klan (USA)
Another small splinter group (or individual) claiming to be part of the KKK are calling themselves the New Order Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.  Proclaiming themselves the "Blue Tunic Army," they claim that their mission is to preserve the white heritage, so future generations will know and learn from their history." They proclaim a strange combination of anti-semitism, national socialism, and Christianity claiming that National-Socialism is the way of the Aryan warrior, yet say their "dedication is to educate, not in hatred, but with pride for the race that (they) are a part of." Not much is really known about this group.
Their flag has a silver eagle and wreath reminiscent of those used by the Third Reich centered on a light blue field, holding a KKK Blood Drop symbol where one would expect the swastika to appear.  The words "New Order Knights" in a black script are written above the badge, with the words "Ku Klux Klan" appearing below.
KKK-LLC Flag
The Ku Klux Klan, LLC 2003 (USA)
Headquartered in Compton, Arkansas, the Ku Klux Klan Limited Liability Company (KKK LLC), is yet another attempt to legitimize the KKK.  A limited liability company (LLC) is a legal form of corporation that provides limited liability to its owners.  Chartered in the State of Arkansas, and working under a legal business structure, this branch of the KKK claims its actions are all completely legal and aboveboard. They pay taxes, keep legitimate financial records of all their activities, and claim to act only as a resource for Klan philosophy and its meaning.
The emblem in the center of their flag is the "Triple Tau." They claim it is a symbol of Christianity dating back to the time of Christ.  According to the Klan the cross symbol (a H bisected by a T) represents the Cross, God and Christ. A variant of this flag does not have the gold border surrounding the red field.
Libertarian Green Party
Libertarian National Socialist Green Party (USA)
The Libertarian National Socialist Green Party (LNSGP), is an American organization that cites the National Socialist German Workers Party as its primary ideological inspiration, while also incorporating elements of Libertarianism and the Green movement.
It has not been established whether LNSGP has any activity or existence other than through its website. It doesn't appear to have any active membership.
LANC Flag (1923-c.1927)
National Christian Defense League 1923-1935 (Romania)
Liga Apararii National Crestine - LANC
National Christian Defense League was founded in 1923, by transformation of the National Christian Union (Uniunea National Crestina), which was founded previous year. Founder and leader of both parties was Alexandru C. Cuza, a politician already known after his extreme anti-Semitism, in service of which he was using even the proposals that would otherwise sound progressive for those times, like universal male suffrage and land reform. Second position in the new party was held by Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, whose political mentor Cuza was during previous years. The flag of National Christian Defense League was black with a white disc charged with a black swastika, all within a border in national colors. According to Codreanu, black field was the symbol of mourning, white disc symbolized the "hopes surrounded by the darkness they will have to conquer", while the swastika was adopted as the worldwide symbol of anti-Semitism. The last statement suggests that the symbol was actually borrowed from the Nazis of Germany, although Cuza later claimed that it was used in Romania since 1910, when he took part in founding of the Democratic Nationalist Party (Partidul Nationalist Democrat), from which he later broke away to found the National Christian Union, the party whose use of the swastika is indeed verified.
Although the National Christian Defense League drew inspiration from Italian Fascism and German Nazism, it was not as militant as these movements and Cuza was constantly refusing Codreanu's proposals to turn the party into a militia. This eventually caused a split in 1927, when Codreanu broke away to found the Iron Guard. New movement quickly took many supporters from the National Christian Defense League, which managed to survive, although somewhat weakened, until 1935, when it merged with the National Agrarian Party (Partidul National Agrar) to form the National Christian Party (Partidul National Crestin). Some time after the split, the National Christian Defense League adopted a new flag, Romanian tricolor with a black swastika in the center, which it transferred to its successor in 1935.
LeT Flag
Army of the Good (Pakistan)
Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT)
The Lashkar-e-Taiba, or Army of the Good (Righteous, Pure, etc.), is one of the largest and most active terrorist organizations in South Asia, operating mainly from Pakistan. It was founded in 1987 in Afghanistan, with funding from Osama Bin Laden. Its headquarters is in Muridke (Punjab province of Pakistan), but the group operates several training camps in Kashmir.
The LeT has been banned as a terrorist organization by India, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Russia, and Australia.  Although it's political arm, Jamat ud Dawah (JUD), has also been banned since 2015, the Pakistani government seems to still allow it to work openly as a "charitable" organization.
LITAS Flag
Lithuanian National Union (Lithuania)
Lietuviu` Tautos Sa`junga - LITAS
The Lithuanian National Union, founded 2011, is the most current neo-Nazi party in Lithuania. It is the successor of a host of previous neo-Nazi organizations. To name a few:
Lithuanian Union of National Socialist Unity (LNSVS) - Lietuviu` Nacionalsocialine's Vienybe's Sa`junga (1996-1999)
Lithuanian National Democratic Party (LNDP) - Lietuvos Nacionaldemokratu` Partija (founded independently 1999-2009)
Lithuanian National Labour Union (LTDS) - Lietuviu` Tautinio Darbo Sa`junga (1999-2000)
Lithuanian National Socialist Party (LNSP) Lietuviu` Nacionalsocialine' Partija (2000-2001)
Unified Lithuanian National Workers Movement (VLNDS) - Vieningasis Lietuviu` Nacionaldarbininku` Sa`ju^dis (2007-2011)
All of these organizations, except the LNDP, were founded and led by the same man, Lithuanian neo-Nazi activist Mindaugas Murza (also known as Mindaugas Gervaldas). Each of these Lithuanian National Socialist Parties used a range of flags, many of which are derived from those of their predecessors. Regardless of their varying names and flags, members of all these groups attacked Lithuania's minorities of Jews, Poles and Russians, and demanded that these minorities be made to leave Lithuania. They also advocated restrictions on immigration and on the import of foreign goods and expressed doubts about whether Lithuania should seek EU membership. Mindaugas Murza compared globalism to Zionism, and preaches hatred of the Jews (anti-Semitism) and other Nazi policies, including paraphrasing the German National Socialist slogan with "Lithuania, wake up!" Murza was imprisoned for his activities, but his followers still occasionally cause trouble.
    
LNSVS Flag
(used by LNDP and VLNDS as a "heritage" flag)
The VLNDS flag most frequently used was originally described as the "National" flag. The party described the cross as the combination of two swastikas, one right-facing and one left-facing. The flag they called the "Honor" flag has never appeared in any public demonstrations and was perhaps only used during private meetings, if any copies were made at all, for its design was never made known to the public. The VLNDS "Party" flag ("Organizational" flag, as it was called by them) was shown at the party website, but its actual use was not verifed so far. It is derived from the flag used by the LNDP in 2001-2007 (while Murza and his followers were its members) and also by the VLNDS in early 2007, but the white disc and black cross of the original design were reduced in size and superimposed over a "Black Sun," a well-known Nazi symbol, depicted here in gold color. To denote its ideological heritage, the VLNDS also sometimes used the flags of the Lithuanian Union of National Socialist Unity and the Lithuanian National Socialist Party.
The flag of the Lithuanian Union of National Socialist Unity (LNSVS) which featured a white swastika on a white outlined red disc placed on a red field, was most likely the flag of some earlier neo-Nazi group, because it does seem to be more traditional, and there have been many similar organizations previously in Lithuania. Their verified flag was similar to that of the LNDP, but was charged with a cross crosslet instead of the cross potent. The Lithuanian National Labour Union (LTDS), founded by a re-organization of the Lithuanian Union of National Socialist Unity (LNSVS), but replaced almost imediately the next year, used a flag that had a red cross crosslet on white field which differed from most used among the neo-Nazi groups in Lithuania that all favored red fields. Its replacement, the Lithuanian National Socialist Party (LNSP), used a red flag charged with a white cross crosslet on a white outlined red disc; the dark shade of red was also sometimes attributed to other flags used, but was verified only for this one.
LN/PNF-L Flag
Nationalist Lorraine (France)
Lorraine Nationaliste
Nationalist Lorraine was established in French region of Lorraine in December 2012 as the local branch of the French Work. After the latter was dissolved in 2013, the Nationalist Lorraine kept operating and eventually joined the newly formed French Nationalist Party (PNF) in 2015, as the PNF Lorraine.
The flag of Nationalist Lorraine / PNF Lorraine is derived from that of the French Work, by replacing original blue and red colors with red and yellow, respectively, and addition of a white alerion in each red quarter. An alerion is a heraldic charge which looks like a small and simplified image of an eagle and appears in the traditional heraldic banner of Lorraine, from which the arrangement of colors is also borrowed. The use of flags and arms of traditional provinces is widely spread among French ultra-rightists, many of whom wish to re-establish the traditional administrative division of the country.
LOEF Party Standard
The French Work (France)
L'Œuvre française
The French Work is a French ultranationalist movement, founded in 1968 by Pierre Sidos. Sidos has a long history of founding, providing leadership, and memberships in a variety of different extremist groups such as Young Nation, the Nationalist Party, 13 May People's Movement, Organization of the Secrete Army, to name just a few. Most of these organizations were banned by the French government for being either anti-semitic, neo-Nazi, racist, or prone to violence. Somehow, the French Work has remained marginally legal in the French political picture. The L'Œuvre française main goal seems to be replacing the French Republic with a new monarchy whose goal would be to return France to its "historic role and civilizing mission."
On the L'Œuvre française website there is much discussion on the origins and meaning of the "Celtic Cross" and its meaning and use as the party standard, explaining that they "rightfully consider the Celtic Cross as their oldest national emblem, without fearing any kind of comparison," one would guess, to the swastika used by the German Third Reich and the Celtic Crosses used by many other neo-Nazi nationalist groups. Another symbol of the movement was the "Triple Ensign" - three plain square flags flown together, each in one of the national colors.
The Four-Quartered flag was reported to have been used as the emblem of the LOEF Secretariat during the Nationalist Congress (Congrés nationaliste), a gathering of various French ultra-rightist organizations which took place in year 2008. A variant of the party standard, with blue and red areas within the Celtic cross changed into gold, was used at the same event.
The French Work was banned in July 2013, along with several other ultra-rightist groups, after the street fighting which took place in Paris previous month resulted in death of one anti-Fascist. It had already been pushed aside in 2011, when Marine Le Pen became President of the National Front and decided to distance the party from more extremist groups, expelling the leaders of French Work and others with "double membership". After the dissolution, former members of the French Work have founded a number of new organizations, sometimes using its flag as the model for their new ones.
LOEF Caryatids Flag The Caryatids (France)
Les Caryatides
The Caryatids was the women's wing of The French Work (LOEF), the ultranationalist movement founded in 1968 and banned in 2013. Not dissolved, The Caryatids kept operating and eventually joined the newly formed French Nationalist Party in 2015, to continue as its women's wing.
The flag of The Caryatids is blue with a white Celtic cross, superimposed with a yellow cross flory, i.e. whose arms end with fleurs-de-lis. An orchid flower in proper colors is placed over all in center. The flag design is derived from that of the French Work.
LOEF-JN Flag Nationalist Youth (France)
Jeunesses Nationalistes
The Nationalist Youth (JN) was established, as the youth branch of French Work (LOEF), in October 2011 during the 14th Forum of the Nation, organized in Lyon. Its activism, often leading to violence, eventually made it one of the organizations, together with the French Work, which were banned in July 2013.
The flag of the Nationalist Youth is white with the movement emblem: an eagle of Fascist inspiration, holding a fasces in its claws and surrounded by a wreath of laurel, all in gold color and set atop a black scroll bearing the movement name in golden letters. The laurel branches are, most probably, modelled on of the Fred Perry sportswear brand logo. Fred Perry shirts are equally prized by the skinheads and the antifas, as well as various other youth groups; the riot that eventually lead to dissolution of the French Work and Nationalist Youth  had actually started when the two rival groups unexpectedly met at a Fred Perry private sale.
Speculative Flag of the LRA

Speculative Flag of the LRA
(reported, but questioned)
Lord's Resistance Army (Uganda)
The Lord's Resistance Army (Lord's Resistance Movement), led by Joseph Kony, who proclaims himself the spokes person of God and the Holy Spirit, is a militant terrorist group which was started in 1987 in the Acholi region of Northern Uganda. The LRA operates in northern Uganda, South Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Central African Republic. The LRA has been blamed for widespread human rights violations, including reported murder, abduction, mutilation, cannibalism, sexual enslavement, and seizing child conscripts to participate their terrorists activities. The LRA forces are now shrunken in size and on the defensive, with Ugandan Defense Forces, aided by American Special Forces commando trainers, determined to put an end to their violent activities. The remaining LRA forces appear to be now mostly active in the Orientale province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where the DRC provides a safe zone and refuses to allow Ugandan troops to enter in pursuit of the LRA.
The illustrated red-black-blue striped flag, although commonly presented as the LRA flag, might, according to Vexillologist Jaume Ollé, be a variant of a South Sudanese Liberation Movement flag photographed with South Sudanese guerrilla fighters operating within North Uganda and mistaken for the LRA.  The colors are, however, the same as those used by the Uganda People's Congress Party, but with the top red-black stripes reversed. Many Ugandans still associate the UPC party with the military excesses of the past and especially the rule of the Military Junta of the early 1980s and the resulting civil war.
According to Ollé, the Lord's Resistance Army flag is a bicolored striped flag (either red-yellow or yellow-red) of two horizontal stripes (these colors are also present on the LRA uniforms). He adds that the flag is defaced with an emblem showing a half moon, a star, law tables, and a heart in the design. Unfortunately neither his red-yellow flag, or the commonly accepted red-black-blue flag, have been reliably documented, and since contact with the LRA is difficult, exactly which flag they are using, if any, remains a mystery.
MAN Flag
National Action Movement (Portugal)
Movimento de Acção Nacional
The Movimento de Acção Nacional (MAN) was a "classical" European-type neo-Nazi style movement, which operated from 1986 to 1992. They used a white lined Celtic Cross (Sun Wheel) on black flag. Technically, this was not a party, but a neo-fascist movement connected with groups of "skinheads" and football supporters.
After the murder of a black man in Lisbon by these skinheads, they where outlawed by court order because the Portuguese constitution prohibits organized movements that promote fascist ideology.
MANS Flag
Movement of National Socialist Action of Chile
Movimiento de Acción Nacional Socialista de Chile (MANS)
Founded in 1996 as the Horst Wessel Standard (Standarte Horst Wessel), this group adopted its present name in 2000. It claims the succession to the National Socialist Movement of Chile and the National Socialist Workers Party of Chile . Its flag is red, with a large white disc in center, charged with an oak wreath surrounding a spade between two wheat-ears, all in black; the charges in center are borrowed from the flag used by the National Labour Service of the Third Reich, but are differently shaped. Abbreviation MANS is inscribed in white in canton.

National Fascist Party of the Philippines 2012
Partido Fascista Nacional de Filipinas (PFNF)
NDNMP Logo/Emblem
There are a number of neo-Nazi and neo-Fascist web-based organizations, all hosted on FaceBook, that seem to all be the work of a small group of persons or person.  According to these closely affiliated and similar websites, they all support goals of "anti-communism, militarism, the abolition of democracy and its ideals, the abolition of the old system of corruption, a strong ultra-nationalistic fervor, glorification of the past, statism, and glorification of the nation." The term "maharlika" refers to a feudal peasant warrior class that once existed in the Philippines, but in modern Filipino the term has come to mean "royal nobility." and has been adopted by these Filipino extremist. The word maharlika was used during the Kilusang Bagong Lipunan (New Society Movement) of Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos to describe Filipino nationalism, incorrectly indicating that it referred to the ancient Filipino kings and princes.
On their flags they claim that "red symbolizes the blood of the Filipino race, the blood which the fathers of our nation shed to attain freedom; the sun represents the eternal sunshine of the Philippines and its people which will last thousands of years; the eight rays of the sun represent our aims...and the eagle represents the might of the Philippines and its people."
Mexica Movement Flag
Indigenous Movement of the People of Anahuac Flag (Mexico)
As the self-proclaimed "revolutionary voice" of the indigenous people of Mexican descent, the Mexica Movement wants to unite North and Central America into the "Nation of Anahuac" whose rightful inhabitants are indigenous Native Americans.  They advocate that all white Americans should return to their true homes in Europe, and leave the Americas to its original people. They view Latin Americans of Amerindian descent, Native Americans, and the Canadian First Nations as one people who are falsely divided by European-imposed borders.
The black-and-white design in the center of their flag represents the Mayan depiction of duality (life and death, male and female, matter and spirit, etc.). The four colors of the flag represent both the four directions, and the two solstices and two equinoxes of the solar year, which all play an important part in all indigenous believes and religions.
MNS Flag
Hungarian Welfare Association (Hungary)
Magyar Népjóléti Szövetség
The Magyar Népjóléti Szövetség (MNS) is a neo-fascist movement. It is small, but they are visible at public demonstrations on national days or anniversaries linked to World War II. The Hungarian Welfare Association, which has appeared under various names and in different guises, adheres openly to the legacy of the Hungarian fascist Arrow Cross, or Cross Star movement, led during the World War II by Ferenc Szalasi.
Various small groups, such as "Blood & Honour," are still active in organizing demonstrations on anniversaries linked to World War II and the legacy of Hungarian fascism.
MNSC Flag 1932
National Socialist Movement of Chile
Movimiento Nacional Socialista de Chile (MNSC)
The Movimiento Nacional Socialista de Chile (MNSC) was formed in 1932 by General Diaz Valderrama, Carlos Keller, and Jorge González von Marées, who became leader. Initially supporting the ideas of Adolf Hitler, the party received financial support from the German population of Chile and claimed a membership of 20,000 people. The movement stressed what it saw as the need for one party rule and solidarity between classes, and soon set up its own paramilitary wing, the Tropas Nacistas de Asalto. However, support for Hitler was abandoned in the late 1930s and anti-Semitism was scaled back, with a more domestic form of Fascism being offered publicly. The movement was active until 1938, when it merged into the Popular Liberating Alliance (Alianza Popular Libertadora), a nationalist and populist party which eventually distanced itself from the Fascism.
The flag used by the MNSC was derived from the first Chilean flag by addition of a red thunderbolt pointing upwards. As the oldest Chilean Nazi flag, it was reused in 21st century by neo-Nazi groups such as the National Order Front.
MNSU Flag 1988
United Nacional Socialist Movement of Chile
Movimiento Nacional Socialista Unificado de Chile (MNSU)
United Nacional Socialist Movement of Chile was founded - or "refounded" - in 1988. Its flag is derived from that of the original National Socialist Movement of Chile, whose successor they claim to be, with a differently stylized thunderbolt and addition of a red lauburu symbol on blue field in the canton. According to them, the lauburu is a "Spanish solar symbol". In reality, it is a specifically Basque symbol, but was obviously chosen due to its resemblance with the swastika, which is why it was also attributed to the National Socialist Movement of the Basque Country, a non-existent Spanish neo-Nazi group.
MNSVN Flag
National Socialist Movement - National Vanguard Flag (Peru)
Movimiento Nacional Socialista Vanguardia Nacional
One of the newest neo-Nazi groups in Peru is the Movimiento Nacional Socialista Vanguardia Nacional (MNSVN) which was founded in 2010, with branches in Lima, La Libertad and  Lambayeque. The National Vanguard uses a flag featuring a black arrow pointing upwards, said to be the "tyr" rune (tiwaz). The rune, shaped as a raised spear symbolizes power, resistance, determination and fighting spirit, according to the group.
The flag, which is presented in the traditional National Socialists colors with red field, and white and black striped detailing, is reminiscent of one of the variants of the Hitlerjugend (Hitler Youth) House Flag, with the tyr rune replacing the swastika.
MNR Flag
Republican National Movement (France)
Mouvement national républicain
The Republican National Movement (MNR) was founded by Bruno Mégret in 1999 as a splinter of the extreme-right party National Front (FN or front national). Although political observers have considered the MNR to be a far-right party, the MNR presents itself as classical liberal and nationalist. It opposes immigration, Islamisation, and the European Union, but, unlike the National Front, supports free markets and neoliberalism.
The group  uses the emblem an oak leaf, usually within a French tricolor flag. According to the party's website, "the oak leaf within the tricolor flag is the symbol of the struggle for our identity, of the attachment to our roots and of the continuity of our country. The oak symbolizes strength, nobleness and justice. In ancient Rome, the oak represented the civic virtues. It is shown in the arms of the [French] monarchy as well as in the arms of the Republic."
The flag of the MNR is vertically divided blue-red with, in the middle a white oak leaf with blue veins. The supporters of the MNR sometimes use another flag, probably unofficial, made of the French national flag charged in the middle of the white stripe with a tricolor oak leaf not reaching the horizontal edges of the flag.
MNSDP Odal Rune Flag
National Socialist Movement Awake Peru (Peru)
Movimiento Nacional Socialista Despierta Perú (MNSDP)
The Movimiento Nacional Socialista Despierta Perú (MNSDP) is a radical neo-Nazi group in Peru whose activities center around Cieneguilla according to the Peruvian police.  Their motto of "Peru Awake" is obviously paraphrasing "Deutschland erwache!" (Germany awake!). The MNSDP formed what they called a super "creole" neo-Nazi group to celebrate Hitler's 119th birthday called the Peruvian National Socialist Union (UNSP - Unión Nacional Socialista Peruana) which briefly existed in 2008-2009.
The National Socialist Movement Despierta, in the tradition of the original National Socialists German Workers Party, maintains a militant and lightly armed "Brown Brigade," complete with flags, brown uniform shirts, black ties, and red and white MNSDP arm bands with the "Odal Rune" logos prominently displayed on them. The Odal Rune is also widely used by right-wing nationalist youth groups like the " Wiking Jugend " in Germany and " Afrikaner Student Federation " in South Africa.
The historical Spanish Cross of Burgundy has also been used by the MNSDP during their rallies. (The Cross of Burgundy was used as a military ensign in New Spain by Cortes and the Spanish Conquistadores in their conquest of the Mexico and later California.)
