The Japanese internment camps in the United States during World War II are widely regarded as a violation of civil liberties and human rights, but whether they constitute a war crime is a more complex legal question. War crimes typically refer to violations of the laws of war during armed conflict, and the internment was a government policy rooted in racial prejudice rather than military necessity. While many consider these actions unjust and discriminatory, they were not prosecuted as war crimes at the time, and the legal definitions of war crimes have evolved since then. Today, the internment is often condemned as a grave injustice rather than a war crime in the strict legal sense.
