The Racist Rodents relocated the Japanese to camps to steal their wealth, of course.
That's the only reason Rodents ever do anything. For wealth and power.
@Sled Dog Give it a rest.
You MUST give people credit for doing something decent that saves lives,even if it was done accidentally.
Tell me,how much of the property owned by the Japanese,MANY of whom were American citizens,would have been sold at estate sales after their murders if they HADN'T been interned in remote locations?
Many of them seemed to recognize it and proved their loyalty to the US by joining the US military. Every heard of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team? All All-Japanese/American unit that fought in Europe during WW-2,and had the most valor and other combat awards of any unit their size in the US Army.
I have a friend whose father was a first generation American of Japanese descent who was on his way to the recruiting office in Chicago to enlist the on 8 Dec 1941 when he was attacked and almost beaten to death for the "Crime" of "looking like a Jap". He didn't die,but he did spend the rest of his life in a care situation because he was a vegetable.
Luckily for the US Army his 3 brothers made it to a recruiting station and enlisted. One of whom won a Silver Star fighting the Nazi's in Europe.
The only reason my friend and his cousins were even born was BECAUSE of King Franklin's decision to intern Japanese-American citizens for the duration of the war.
Sure,Roosevelt was playing the "race card" after the attack on Pearl Harbor,but there can be no denying that it was what needed to be done at that time.
