If japan has to give up the ray sun flag, america has to give up its stars and stripes, britain the union jack, and every other country.

I think weve concluded that the 16 ray flag is a creation to symbolise and represent japan, not any unacceptable political ideals, so just as america has comnmited some regrettable things flying the old glory, japan has obviously commited dark things while their flag flew, but it doesnt make the flag evil, merely the governments who ran the show at the time.

If a US president commits crimes, you dont impeach the flag, you impeach the person or people responsible.
