Input: Consider Input: By Claudia AllenBBC News The symbol will always be intrinsically linked with Nazi Germany and its crimes, even though its roots go back many thousands of years. But now it has been confirmed the Air Force Command has quietly stopped using this unit emblem. The change was first observed by University of Helsinki academic Teivo Teivainen. He had previously questioned whether the continued use of the symbol was helpful for the Finnish armed forces. Finland's air force has been using a swastika ever since it was founded in 1918, shortly after the country became an independent nation and long before Nazism devastated Europe. Until 1945 its planes bore a blue swastika on a white background - and this was not intended to show allegiance to Nazi Germany, though the two nations were aligned. While the symbol was left off planes after World War Two, a swastika still featured in some Air Force unit emblems, unit flags and decorations - including on uniforms, a spokesperson for the Finnish air force told the BBC. Since January 2017 the emblem for Air Force Command has been similar to the Air Force service emblem - a golden eagle and a circle of wings, the air force said. "As unit emblems are worn on uniform, it was considered impractical and unnecessary to continue using the old unit emblem, which had caused misunderstandings from time to time," the spokesperson said. What is a swastika? The geometric symbol takes the form of a cross with further arms coming off at right angles. The word swastika comes from the Sanskrit for well-being or luck. It has been used for thousands of years in Indian cultures and worldwide, and became a fashionable motif in the West in the early 20th Century. However, in 1920 Adolf Hitler adopted the swastika for his National Socialist party, which came to power the following decade in Germany. The genocidal crimes of the Hitler regime mean that the swastika symbolises Nazism and anti-Semitism for most Westerners. Read more: Prof Teivainen told the BBC that swastikas could be seen in Finland on buildings dating from the 1920s. "In Finland there's this idea that it's a random decorative sign - which to some extent it is," he said. The famed Finnish artist Akseli Gallen-Kallela first used the symbol in a painting in 1889. The Romantic painter went on to use a swastika as part of his designs for the insignia of the Order of the Cross of Liberty. He used a cross with much smaller hooks, so the visual similarity to Nazi symbolism is much less pronounced. It also features on the official flag of the Finnish president. But the swastika became associated with the Finnish air force via a very different man - a Swedish nobleman called Count Eric von Rosen. The count used the swastika as a personal good luck charm. When he gifted a plane to the nascent air force of Sweden's newly independent neighbour in 1918 he had had a blue swastika painted on it. This Thulin Typ D was the first aircraft of the Finnish air force and subsequent planes all had his blue swastika symbol too, until 1945. Supporters of a continued use of the symbol point out that there were no Nazis in 1918 so the air force's use of the swastika has nothing to do with Nazism. However, while Eric von Rosen had no Nazi associations at the time of his 1918 gift, he did subsequently become a leading figure in Sweden's own national socialist movement in the 1930s. He was also a brother-in-law of senior German Nazi Herman Göring, and, according to Prof Teivainen, a personal friend of Hitler. The Finnish air force said that, having been von Rosen's symbol, the swastika remains in some Air Force unit flags and decorations, albeit no longer that of the central Air Force Command. Prof Teivainen told the BBC he had never argued that the swastika should be banned in Finland (as it is in Germany). But he said the military's duty "is to defend the nation - not to defend an old symbol given by a Swedish count in 1918". He was concerned that it could affect young Finns' attitude to the military (at a time when male citizens are still conscripted). Finland's huge neighbour Russia might see the symbol as a sign that its neighbour remains an enemy, he thought - and, crucially, could it impact on Western neighbours' attitudes to supporting Finland if the non-aligned nation ever came under threat again? While the emblem of the Finnish Air Force Academy still features a swastika - superimposed with a propeller - the unheralded move away from the old insignia of the central Air Force Command suggests that the military top brass are ready to move on from Count von Rosen and his blue and white swastika.

Input: Consider Input: American Kevin King and Australian Timothy Weeks were lecturers at the American University of Afghanistan when they were kidnapped in 2016. Anas Haqqani, a leading figure in the Haqqani militant group, and two other senior commanders are part of the deal. It is unclear how or when the exchange of prisoners will take place. "In order to pave the way for face-to-face negotiations with the Taliban, the government has decided to free Taliban prisoners in exchange for two university professors," Mr Ghani said in a televised speech. There was no immediate response to the announcement from the Taliban, who have long refused to negotiate with Mr Ghani's administration. The two professors were ambushed by gunmen and taken from a vehicle while leaving their university campus in Kabul in August 2016. The pair then appeared in a video, released in January 2017, appealing to then US President-elect Donald Trump to agree to a deal to secure their release. The exact condition of the two men remains unclear, but in his speech Mr Ghani noted "their health has been deteriorating while in the custody of the terrorists". Mr Ghani said the decision to conditionally release the prisoners was "a tough, but important decision" and a "humanitarian gesture". Anas Haqqani's older brother, Sirajuddin, leads the Haqqani network of fighters and is a deputy leader of the Taliban. The Haqqani network has been behind many of the co-ordinated attacks on Afghan and Nato forces in recent years and has been blamed for some of the deadliest blasts in the country, including a truck bomb in Kabul in 2017 that killed more than 150 people. Pakistan has been accused by the West of backing the Haqqani network to counter the influence of arch-rival India in Afghanistan, a charge it denies. Anas Haqqani was captured in 2014 alongside another commander, Hafiz Rashid, who is also set for release. The other militant involved in the swap was named as Haji Mali Khan, who is reportedly an uncle of Sirajuddin Haqqani, the AFP news agency reports. The Afghan government was shut out of negotiations between the US and the Taliban earlier this year. In September President Trump declared that effort "dead", shortly after cancelling secret plans to host a Taliban delegation at Camp David in the US. Swap shows concessions Analysis by Auliya Atrafi, BBC Afghan in Kabul President Ghani's confirmation of this prisoner swap came as no surprise, as negotiations behind the scenes have been happening for some time. Until now, he had made clear that the release of Haqqani Network members was a red line for his government, but it now seems the president is willing to make a range of concessions to the Taliban if it paves the way to direct peace talks. For some it's a move by the Afghan government to try to appease, in exchange for including it in peace talks in which the National Unity Government has so far been kept out. But the Taliban have previously made clear that foreign forces have to withdraw before they start intra-Afghan talks. Even then, the Taliban say, they will only treat the Afghan government as a part of the conflict and not as a state.

Input: Consider Input: Some of the first people on the Smiler ride cheered and clapped when it moved off, as crowds arrived for the new season at the Staffordshire theme park. Two women needed amputations after two carriages crashed on the track in June. The park said it had introduced "additional safety procedures" to the way the ride operates. Jim Harvey and his 14-year-old son Liam, from Bloxwich, West Midlands, were among the first on the Smiler when it reopened. 'Terribly sad' Mr Harvey said: "It was fantastic, a bit daunting being first on - my son Liam forced me to sprint to be first. "After the terribly sad crash, you have to feel really bad for the people that got hurt but hundreds of accidents happen daily on the roads. "There's not a nice way to say it but accidents happen. Alton Towers have to move on." Rainbow Serina, 28, from Southend, Essex, who also went on the first Smiler ride, said: "It was great to get back on. The park is busy and people are out in force to support Alton Towers and show that we're absolutely happy to ride, we know it's safe and we trust the park. "What happened last year was awful and should never have occurred but we know it was a human error and measures have been taken to ensure the same mistake is never made again." However, some of the people injured in the crash last June have said they wished the ride would remain closed. Vicky Balch, who along with another passenger, Leah Washington, from Lancashire, had to have a leg amputated, told ITV: "I understand it's a business and it's what they have to do. I just didn't think it'd be so soon. It's only nine months, it's not a very long time." "It feels like the money comes before the people on the ride." Joe Pugh, of Barnsley, South Yorkshire, Daniel Thorpe, from Buxton, Derbyshire, and Chandaben Chauhan, from Wednesbury, West Midlands, were also seriously injured. In total 16 people were hurt in the incident, which park owner Merlin Entertainments said was due to human error. BBC reporter Becky Woods, at Alton Towers Rollercoaster fans arrived at Alton Towers from dawn to be among the first to ride the Smiler. Hundreds of people queued to get into the park on the first day of the new season but the queues moved quite quickly. The theme park sent empty carriages around the Smiler before allowing members of the public on. Its first riders cheered and clapped as the ride was started. Many visitors headed straight for the Smiler - although the queue for it remains relatively short. Smiler riders voice support for theme park Alton Towers said the safety of its guests and employees must always be paramount and that the Smiler ride been re-examined and issued with a document of compliance before reopening. "The park has implemented a number of changes to the way the ride is operated, including enhanced training and additional safety procedures," a statement said. The Health and Safety Executive is prosecuting Merlin Entertainments over the crash and the company is due in court next month.
