Flags in a synagogue

Hi,

Rav Moshe Feinstein wrote that flags do not belong in a synagogue sanctuary, as they have no inherent holiness. However, he also wrote that their presence in a sanctuary does not detract from the holiness of the space, and should not be used as grounds for forming a separate minyan.

(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 1:46)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
