From a military perspective: fringe is documented to be ornamentation ....
However .....
A few years back, I saw a picture of a minister of foreign affairs holding a speech at the Atlantic Council. The "Dutch" flag was infringed with yellow. There is no tradition or law in The Netherlands to do so. I have to say though, that what is considered a Dutch flag, is actually the flag of the House of Orange i.e. The Kingdom, not the state of the Netherlands. So .... in essence, is signals that the Kingdom is in a state of war.
Ukraine flag in 2022: infringed with yellow.
Presidential flag of Russia: infringed with yellow.
So, it is not just ornamentation: it signals: Martial
Infringing the US flag with a yellow ornament of martial, is not right, as the flag stand for the republic. And the republic is formed based on the Constitution. That is not a martial matter, but a civil matter.
As soon as we are talking Martial, we are talking post-office and post-office-accounts, which means: Special Agency of the UN, like UPU and ITU.
Retrieving the flag from the WHO, is a statement, indeed.
However, the term: "shall not be infringed" all of a sudden gets a different ring, is it not. not infringed means unbound, unlimited, unimpeded i.e. free.
I always thought this was one of the dumber conspiracy theories--I thought the fringe was just there for extra ornamentation.
It was even mocked on King of the Hill once, which is not only where I first heard of it, but I first noticed the fringe.
You're telling me there was actually some truth to it?

Thank you.
Honestly, I don’t know.
