Me asap what were the motivations for japanese american internment during world war ii? do you feel this act was a mistake? how did this act stand at odds with our traditional american values?

a) The official motivation of FDR's administration for the internment of Japanese- Americans into concentration camps was the fear of sabotage, espionage and even an armed revolt of the Japanese-Americans against the United States as their loyalty was deemed as questionable.

b) This act was a mistake as most of the Japanese living in U.S. soil were doing their best to be considered as U.S. loyal citizens.

c) The internment of the Nisei, U.S.-born Japanese, stood at odds with the traditional American values as it mostly affected U.S. citizens, in other words, the U.S. government acted against its own citizens on racist grounds, something usually seen in dictatorships and autocracies, counter to the U.S. trust in a government of citizens and for the citizens.

Explanation:

The internment of the Nisei after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the beginning of the state of war between the Empire of Japan and the U.S. was an unfortunate result of the absolute lack of information and knowledge about the Japanese immigrants and Nisei's lifestyle and political views. These immigrants had arrived in the U.S. a long time before the war, and according to their mindset, the moment they settled in the U.S. they vowed to become the best U.S. citizens they could be, in spite of their emotional ties with their old land. The Nisei were raised to see themselves as U.S. citizens, as they had been born in U.S. soil and constitutionally that automatically made them Americans. Furthermore, the Nisei, with no direct ties with Japan, were prone to embrace the American way of life. Proof of that is the enlistment of many Japanese during the war and the fact that a U.S. Army first-line combat outfit made up of Japanese recruits, the 442nd Regiment, was the highest decorated unit of the U.S. armed forces in World War II.

Not until after the war, it became clear that the decision to intern only the Japanese-Americans, and not the Italian and German Americans, had been a huge mistake based on racist grounds.

1) checks and balances- this idea is implemented in the constitution to ensure that no one branch of the federal government gains too much power. for example, the legislative branch(congress) can approve a bill that will then be sent to the executive branch (president). if the president does not like the bill or thinks that it violates the rights of citizens, he/she can veto the bill. vetoing the bill stops the bill from becoming a law. this check on power ensures that congress makes laws that do not violate the rights of citizens.

2) anti-federalists do not want to ratify the constitution unless it includes a bill of rights. the anti-federalists are worried that the constitution gives too much power to the federal government. having a strong central government caused problems when the us was still part of great britain. this is why the anti-federalists are fearful of this type of system.

3) federalists want a new constitution passed because it will fix america's weak political structure. before the us constitution is implemented, the constitution being used is known as the articles of confederation. this constitution has an extremely weak central government, allowing for disunity among the states.

can't do the whole thing, hope this
