In the UK and other countries. The Chruchill V-Sign is there equivlant
of the finger. It literally means F-off. So when Chruchill made is V for
Victory sign, he was basically also cursing out Hitler. (Isn't pointless
knowledge fun)

	No.
	In Australia, when the V sign is given backwards (that is, the
back of the hand is towards the recipient), that's when it means f*** you.
Churchill was giving the straight-out victory symbol.
	In Japan, also, it's never read as the "peace" sign. Just good ol'
victory.
