Question

To what extent was President Roosevelt justified in issuing executive order 9066, thereby putting all Japanese-Americans in internment camps during WWII

Answer 1

Well,

Answer 2

The American people after Pearl Harbor were terrified of the Japs. And quite frankly, they were safer in camps. The American People are EXTREMELY patriotic at this time.

Answer 3

So, if he hadn't put these people in camps, they would have more than likely been attacked by American White people

Answer 4

That plus he was afraid they would become a spy for Japan against the Untied States.

Answer 5

^Awesome point. Double agents are a big issue when we are at war. That is why sometimes people are nervous around foreighners from the middle east. Not because they are all bad. It's just, a few bad apples ruin the whole pie

Answer 6

@conrad757 Thank you for pointing out that issue
