Seriously, how DID you manage to do that? Words cannot describe your level of fail, spartan.
Maybe this will help you "Get it". Last history lesson. I don't know how else to defend the Imperial Flag as a flag that's not anti-Semetic:

("Feldrabbiner" translates to "Field Rabbi. This is Feldrabbiner Dr. Siegfried Klein
[born 1882, murdered in Auschwitz 1944]).
Berthold Guthmann with his brother and sister
"Berthold Guthmann was born in 1893 and volunteered for military service in WWI, as did his two brothers (one of whom was killed at Verdun). He became observer and gunner on military aircrafts and
was awarded the Iron Cross (Second Class), the Tapferkeitsmedaille (Medal for Bravery), and the Verwundetenabzeichen (equivalent to the Purple Heart).
After the war he became a successful attorney in Wiesbaden. He was the secular leader of the Wiesbaden Jewish community during its darkest years (1938-1942) and second in charge of the Frankfurt Jewish congregation during its final months (1942-1943). He was murdered in the holocaust.
The following was part of the recommendation for the Iron Cross (ca. 1916) read: >>...
Lt. Guthmann is brave and a fine officer, although Jewish...<<" Even though there was a bit of anti-Semitism, his recommenders overlooked their own prejudices and awarded him the Iron Cross, 2nd Class.
Let me put it this way: You play into the Nazis and Neo-Nazis hands when you try to A) Deny Jews' brave service for the Empire in WWI and B) When you try to affix swastikas, anti-Semetic prejudice and blind ignorance to German symbols that had been around for a long time. Your ignorance is their victory, spartan.
