there is a German race? Concentration camps for Japanese? Hardly. Though the encampments and confiscation of property were problematic, they were not concentration camps. Reparations have been paid, wrongly to my pov. I'd not feel the same if the reparations were for loss of property, but instead done on a revisionist agenda.
According to the definition of race there is a German race as one of the most widely accepted definition of race is "a class or kind of people unified by shared interests, habits, or characteristics (the English race)." As for your attempt to be ambigious or vague in your use of concentration camps the reality remains that they were concentration camps according to the proper definition of concentration camps. As for reparations those are not at issue here. My point was that had a resolution of Congress existed at that time condemning bigotry, intolerance and acts of violence against Japanese Americans that American citizens would not have been housed in concentration camps simply because of their race. There is no use debating whether it was right or wrong or attempt to re-write history as you people are so fond of doing.
