We interred nearly as many Italians and Germans as Japanese.
....hmmmm....that's the first time I've heard a claim like that. From what I've read in the past, internment of Italians and Germans numbered in the four, five, six thousand range. And mostly adult working age males. Not women, children and the elderly. And of course, the Japanese Americans, in the hundreds of thousands and included women, children and the elderly.
The 'relocation' affected many more, and according to what I read was a 'voluntary' policy, meaning anyone who had a place to go anywhere east of the Rockies was free to relocate there, while those who didn't had to go to one of the camps. Of course, most had no where else to go.
Not justifying what happened, but the situation was a little more complicated than most today realize.
Gotta remember to check the date on these articles.
