My Dad alway said that Hirohito should have been hung at the end of the war, for all the friends that he lost.

Hard to disagree. For all the intricacies of the Japanese government prior to WW2, it's blazingly obvious that if Hirohito had so much as raised an eyebrow, Pearl Harbor would never have happened.

He surrendered. The war (and atrocities) probably would have gone on longer if not for him.
