Internment of Japanese Americans on mainland USA was due to two things. One was the total absent of leadership by FDR and two, sheer panic generated by General DeWitt who commanded the western military district. But this cannot be equate with any sort of travel or refugees ban imposed by Trump. To do so is an insult to every Japanese Americans imprisoned. Unless we forget, Japanese Americans are American citizens. Injustice done upon them, cannot be equate to any injustice done upon foreigners. Least we all forget, Japanese Americans living in Territory of Hawaii, center of US military operations against Imperial Japan, were never interned in mass. Japanese citizens were interned and often they were mistaken for Americans. My grandfather lost his fishing boat so say the family history but that was the extent and there were no whining.  It did not prevent my own father from joining the MIS. Too often, this internment are often misused for political purposes......by both sides of aisle.
