Why google doesn't have the flags of AL Qaeda and the Talibastards on its search page is a mystery to me.

Those holidays are all American, usually they do holidays that people all over the world celebrate or a least know about.

Persian new year and Chinese boat day are pretty tame. Memorial Day and Veterans Day, in the sense they're presented here, are U.S. holidays dealing with military action. If I were a huge company interested in keeping an international user base, I'd probably shy away from those. The problem is that someone will make it political.

IF that were true then Google could rightfully be branded anti-America. Memorial Day is a day of rememberance for fallen troop in ALL wars the US fought in. You know the ones that were for all of civilization like WWI and WWII. Are you saying Google doesn't want to take sides between the Allied and Axis forces? Maybe the founders never visited a Nazi Concentration Camp before. Veterans Day is a day to honor those who stuck their neck out (literally) to serve their country. Maybe all the wars down the line have not been popular, but that is no reason to shun those who served. These are not political holidays, they are NATIONAL holidays. Those that think they are partisan or political are very sad people. And it's quite easy to avoid using a gun. Memorial Day... turn an "O" to a wreath like the one on the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington Cemetary. Veterans Day...turn the "e" into a general saluting. “I believe that it’s really hard to draw Memorial and Veteran’s day without putting a big gun on the logo and basically taking political sides by focusing on essentially military events.”
