president roosevelt established that the japanese amaericans go into internment camps. he was not justified because the ones in america at the time didnt have anything to do with the bombing,
on the other hand there were some japanese who acted loyal to their culture and were spies. this would be a just reason for him to have done that.
the event of pearl harbor president roosevelt thought it would be a good idea to put the japanese americans in internment camps. he decided to do this because there were spies that helped japan instead of being loyal to the country they were in.

Feb19, 1942 Franklin D Roosevelt, issued Executive Order 9066. This allowed americans to move Japanese to the internment camps. Why would they do this? After Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, America thought Japanese Americans were spies for Japan.
Roosevelt, one our our prior presidents did this cruel act to our Japanese people. This act doesn’t justify him in any way. This act made our internees lose their homes, lands and business. They lost hope. Just like this is going on now with our former president.
As opposed to righteous view that America was safeguarding its position in the war, the Japanese American internments were created out of resentment and racial prejudice fostered by other Americans. As the article “Personal Justice Denied” stated, the internments were led by “widespread ignorance of Japanese Americans contributed to a policy conceived in haste and executed in an atmosphere of fear and anger at Japan” (Doc E, 1983). It may seem like a precautionary cause to make internments but there aren’t any other extreme measures for other fronts. Caused by a hatred stirred by media and society’s view, many people disdain the Japanese.
According to Roosevelt, “ ……………………………………………….” While Adolf Hitler had created the Jewish Concentration camps to not interfere with the war and mainly because Hitler just did not like the Jewish religion. In counter to that, both camps had intended for either Jews or Japanese-Americans to be out of the way of war. President Roosevelt and Adolf Hitler had created the camps for the same reason; to have the Jews and Japanese-Americans to not interfere with the war. It can be said that Japanese Internment camps and Jewish Concentration camps are not the same thing, but mostly anything said in agreeance to that can be
Japanese Internment: Why did it occur? How did it affect Japanese-Americans? Following the start of World War II and due to bad advice and popular opinion, President Roosevelt's executive order 9066 went into effect. This order began the marshalling of over 100,000 Japanese Americans into internment camps.
After Pearl Harbor was attacked many people became anti-Japanese, and were fearful. This fear led the Roosevelt team to make a policy toward these Japanese Americans. This policy consisted of forcing all Japanese Americans to leave their homes, and belongings and go to camps for most of the war. This policy was against many of the most essential constitutional rights of Japanese Americans. About 1,600 prisoners in these camps died, and many lost their properties and businesses because they were forced to leave.
The incarceration of Japanese Americans was unjust because the internment was racially biased, there was no evidence that Japanese-Americans were going to commit acts of espionage and sabotage, and the government
This is not a valid reason to place innocent people in internment camps. The United States government has no reason to believe that only the Japanese American race was unloyal people. “The US War Department and the War Relocation Authority decided to test the loyalty of all people of Japanese ancestry who were incarcerated in the WRA camps. They required all those 17 years of age and older to answer a questionnaire that became known as the “loyalty questionnaire.” (Loyalty).
Many historians agree that this event was undoubtedly unconstitutional and an infringement of basic human rights. The forced incarceration of Japanese
The internment of Japanese Americans during WWII was not justified. After Pearl Harbor, many Americans were scared of the Japanese Americans because they could sabotage the U.S. military. To try and solve the fear President Franklin D Roosevelt told the army in Executive order 9066 to relocate all Japanese Americans living on the West Coast. They were relocated to detention centers in the desert. Many of them were in the detention centers for three years.
Lera Ramsay Hour 5 District Performance Event The year 1939 wasn’t a good year for anyone. In 1939, France and England declared war on the Axis Powers, Germany, Italy, and Japan, starting World War II. During this time Nazi Concentration Camps formed under Hitler’s command and Japanese Internment Camps formed in America.
How would you feel if one day you were told to leave your whole life behind to live in captivity just because people halfway across the world did something wrong? This horror story was all too true for the thousands of Japanese Americans alive during World War II. Almost overnight, thousands of proud Japanese Americans living on the west coast were forced to leave their homes and give up the life they knew. The United States government was not justified in the creation of Japanese internment camps because it stripped law-abiding American citizens of their rights out of unjustified fear.
December 7th of 1941 America would face a horrific scene in their own homeland, the Japanese would attack Pearl Harbor with their Air Force not once but twice. That same day President John F. Kennedy would decide to place the Japanese Americans, living in the country at the time, in internment camps. The civilians would not have a clue what they would be put up against, now they would have to encounter various obstacles to make sure they would be able to survive. “The camps were prisons, with armed soldiers around the perimeters, barbed wire. and controls over every aspect of life”(Chang).
“Mary Tsukamoto once said ‘I knew it would leave a scar that would stay with me forever. At that moment my precious freedom was taken from me’” (Martin 54). The Betrayal. The attack on Pearl Harbor.
Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor is by far one of America’s most remembered events in history. On December 7, 1941, the Japanese dropped bombs on the American base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. This attack is what persuaded President Franklin Roosevelt to join World War 2 and fight on two fronts. Japan attacked Pearl Harbor for many reasons. They attacked because they believed they would create a New World Order, they felt threatened by America and because of the oil embargo.
