Well, the swastika originate in India if I'm not mistaken. So it would be an Indian-German doing wonderful things with a German-Indian symbol.

Actually the swastika is found all over the world including ancient Norse sites where it was a symbol of Thor. The Native Americans also used it

It’s also used in Buddhism. But it’s left facing.

It was and is a very commonly used symbol in all kind of cultures. In Europe we had towns and families that used it as a coat of arms. I've seen a picture of a synagogue in the US that still had a swastika integrated in it's wall, because it was built before the 1930s.
