I understand the sentiment. Is it in the best of taste when it refers to a conflict with Great Britain, almost the only country which is (kinda) supporting us at the moment?

Britain is "kinda supporting us". Not enough - the hell with Europe after we saved their sorry rear ends. I have always loved this particular flag - "Don't Tread on Me". God Bless America!

The "Stars and Stripes" was born from our conflict with Great Britain, too. If our national flag doesn't offend them, I doubt this one will, either. Every year, during 4th of July celebrations, I've had British friends wish me a Happy 4th. Though, some couldn't resist indulging in a little good-natured teasing, I've never met a Brit who got seriously offended by Americans celebrating the birth of America.

No.
