Christmas colours and Bangladesh flag

The red and green colors of the Bangladesh flag are also the traditional colors of Christmas which commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ whom Christians call the Prince of Peace.
The red in Christmas could symbolize the blood of Christ who gave his life to redeem sinners which we all are to varying degrees. The red in the Bangladesh flag could symbolize the blood of the intellectual martyrs, the freedom fighters, and countless others who sacrificed their lives for the Liberation of Bangladesh.
The green in Christmas could symbolize the new life spiritually available through Christ as he rose from the dead. The green in the Bangladesh flag could symbolize Victory Day and the birth of Bangladesh and the potential hope this brings.
Merry Christmas to you whoever you are wherever you might be! Also, congratulations to Bangladesh for breaking the world record for the largest man-made flag on Victory Day! May peace, justice, freedom, and hope prevail in Bangladesh!
