[Brian Allen]

Should people of English descent be put into internment camps because of English actions in Ireland?

What English actions in Ireland?

Beating the Irish at soccer and Rugby, perhaps?

[Bit naughty, that!]

Subsidising them and providing them Billions of Pounds in aid and jobs for their immigrants, for centuries, perhaps?

Oh yes -- and the West Coast Japanese were mostly loyal to Japan -- and made no bones about it. And in any case the "DemocRATS who rounded them up and interned them wanted to steal their money and confiscate their property!

[And did just that!]

Contrary to your claim, the case was that virtually none of the Japanese and Japanese-Americans on the West Coast had the slightest loyalty to Japan. There are a number of reasons for this, most stemming back to an event called the Meiji Restoration.

As a practical matter, most of the Issei would be considered political refugees under today's understanding of the term. In any case, the greater part of the JA population were children. By Constitutional right they were citizens.

There are numerous books written about the situation. You should read them first.

It is rather startling to see the old WWII anti-Japanese racist propaganda popping up here in FR.
