Was President Roosevelt justified in ordering Executive Order 9066, which resulted in the internment of Japanese American citizens?


Sagot :

Answer:

He was both justified and unjustified.

Explanation:

When the Japanese attacked pearl harbour, the fear, hatred and outrage against the Japanese Americans grew and it was a common belief that the Japanese Americans had helped them to plan the attack. Later president Roosevelt issued Executive order 9066 on February 19, 1942 to evacuate all persons who could be a threat to national security from the west coast to be moved to relocation centres. More than 100,000 Japanese American women, men and children were moved to camps which were guarded and isolated. Along with Japanese Americans, Italian Americans and German Americans were also moved to concentration camp. He was justified because Article Two grants him authority to issue executive orders. But it can also be considered as unjustified because he doubted the intentions of millions of people who were American citizens. They were suspected because of their ancestry.
