Hate to say it, but God forbit another 911 on America the Jews, myself included, will then cease to be the most hated people on the Earth.

How much did Japan pay the prisoners of war forced on the Bataan death march?

Japanese permanent resident aliens who were interned at Justice Department camps received compensation as well. Their German and Italian counterparts, however, received nothing. According to Immigration and Naturalization Service statistics, nearly half of all enemy aliens held in Justice Department internment camps were of European ancestry.

Ah, nothing like the smell of PC in the morning...

I love this babe. There is no backdown in her!

I suppose Michelle Malkin thinks she's smarter than Ronald Reagan now.

The Japanese were interned en masse to protect them from the general population.

Just as Arabs will be after another jihadi atrocity on American soil.

The commission's legal counsel hastily dismissed MAGIC's importance in President Franklin D. Roosevelt's decision to approve Executive Order 9066 and the West Coast evacuation.

Nice of a SF newspaper to run a story like this, what with Reagan recently deceased and still being mourned, and an election going down the tubes for the Demagogic Party. It'll try anything to split off a few Bush supporters. The reason these reparations were done is to pull down the Marble Man version of FDR.

George W. Bush will be reelected by a margin of at least ten per cent

"When every detention of a Middle Eastern illegal alien is tantamount to the "unjustified" internment of ethnic Japanese, there is no room for rationality. This absolutist resistance to wartime threat profiling, based on falsified fears of repeating the "mistakes" of World War II, reduces the security of our nation"

Michelle couldn't be more correct.
