"Succumbing to bad advice and popular opinion, President Roosevelt signed an executive order in February 1942 ordering the RELOCATION of all Americans of Japanese ancestry to CONCENTRATION CAMPS in the interior of the United States."

According to this , it wasn't really FDR's fault that he sent Japanese io internment caps. It was those who gave him, "bad advice."

This was taught for years in American History classes and probably still is.

There was a very funny line in a recent National Review article about Philip Roth who wrote a historical fantasy, The Plot Against America. The writer says that Roth's novel made her think:

Wow, yeah. It certainly is a good thing FDR was in office, so that we didn't wind up with any internment camps in this country

Funny. True. And something most of the reviewers of the book apparently didn't notice at the time.
