Fearing that Japanese living in the United States would help Japan, the government gathered up almost 120,000 Japanese-Americans and resident Japanese aliens and placed them in internment camps. Some people remained in the camps for over three years.

A:The Japanese residents of the United States were placed in internment camps because the United States was at war and there was the chance that the Japenese people would try to assist the Japanese war effort. This was quite different to the situation after the 911 attacks, when even the most conservative politicians recognised that the loyalties of most Muslims in the country were with the United States. There was no need or reason to place them in internment other than as a misguided and misplaced punishment for attacks they had no prior knowledge of.
No. There is no provision for this in the US Constitution.
During World War II, many Japanese Americans were forcibly relocated to internment camps across the United States. This was a result of wartime fears and racial prejudice following the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. Approximately 120,000 Japanese Americans, two-thirds of whom were U.S. citizens, were removed from their homes and placed in these camps, which were often located in remote areas. The internment is now widely recognized as a violation of civil rights.
