“I’m not sure I agree that it was wrong. It was war.”
Of course it was wrong-—and racial.
Where were the German and Italian internment camps?
.
There was a difference, apparently we only interned Italian and German nationals, where with Japan we apparently interned Japanese that had already obtained citizenship. That and we paid the Japanese reparations where we didn't the German and Italians.
My guess is that the Japanese had seen a lot of recent immigration relative to the Germans and Italians. But I don't know.

D@mn straight it was racial, we were attacked by the most racist society on the planet.
“Where were the German and Italian internment camps?”
What is this, did you just re-watch Animal House?
The Japanese were the ones who bonbed Pearl Harbor and threatened an invasion of the west coast like they’d done successfully throughout the Pacific.
Are you kidding?
Wikipedia:
German-American Internment refers to the detention of German and German-American citizens in the United States during World War I and World War II. Unlike the Japanese Americans who were interned during World War II and the Italian Americans who were subject to the same fate, these internees have never received an apology or reparations.

I don't know much about Italian camps but they existed as well.
“Where were the German and Italian internment camps?”
There were a lot more people of German and Italian descent here than there were Japanese, some going back the very beginnings of these united States of America. And, of course, there was that little business of a sneak attack...
I believe there was an internment camp for Italians near me in Pittsburg, California. Infact, I believe Joe DiMaggio parents and not sure him though were interned. However, his father believed it was the right things to do because of the war.
