It's unbelievable to me that people would attempt to justify the internment of American citizens for no other reason than what race they happened to be. The majority of Japanese immigrants came here and did all the things that "good" immigrants were supposed to do. They learned the language; they assimilated; they worked hard and thrived; they educated their children to be good Americans. And yet, they found out that when the chips were down, they weren't really Americans - just a bunch of Japs who didn't deserve the same rights and priveleges as other Americans. And even after the most decorated unit of WWII, the 442nd comprised of all Japanese-Americans fought so heroically, they still had to come back and listen to bigots like this idiot who apparently still thinks it's a good idea to imprison American citizens solely on the basis of their race. How sad.

Do you honestly believe that all of the Arab "Americans" who have pledged allegiance to the U.S. and yet have criticized President Bush and the U.S. position on Iraq are good Americans?

Read the book that is cited here in these replies before you brand a lot of people as biggots.
