Why were Japanese removed from the west coast?

The Japanese were removed from the west coast because the US government wanted to make sure that none of the Japanese that lived in the west coast could sabotage a base/ bases so the Japanese could invade the west coast. Even though I don't agree with this, I do believe that it was necessary for the time. The Japanese got fair treatment in the camps, they DID NOT get treated badly like what the Nazis did.
