The swastika was originally a Buddist symbol originating in China (the swastika valley to be more specific) which symbolized peace and harmony. In it's original form however it is the reverse of the symbol we normally associate with Nazi Germany. I guess someone in the party had a sick sense of humor when they decided to take the reverse of a symbol of peace and make it their symbol of war.
