people of Japanese descent were placed in internment camps. The United States’ justification for this abominable action was that the Japanese American’s may spy for their Homeland. Over 62% of the Japanese that were held in these camps were American Citizens. The United States’ internment of the Japanese was a poor and cowardly method of ‘keeping the peace.’ The United States was not justified in stowing away Japanese Americans into almost concentration camps. This act goes against the basic Bill

Fourth‚ there was evidence to believe‚ provided by code MAGIC that there were Japanese spies living in America. Finally‚ America had to in some way respond to Pearl Harbor for the mental health of its own citizens and protect their home soil.
