Why The United States Should Remain WWII

The beginning of everything that the Japanese citizens of our nation had to endure,was the bombing of an American Naval Base. It was an early sunday morning on December 7, 1941 when the Japanese attacked a naval base in Hawaii known as Pearl Harbor (DeWitt 1). This act of war cause 2,400 American people aboard a naval ship die. After the attack, President Roosevelt and congress declared war on Japan, with America declaring war on Japan , Japanese-Americans suffered immensely. In fear that the Japanese may attack the weakened west coast, President Roosevelt signed an order, known as Executive Order No. 9066, which let the military remove Japanese-Americans or anyone of the Japanese decent ,and have them relocated into internment camps.

Lastly, The United States should of joined the World War II because we were attacked after we were trying to stay out of the war. The United States only option was to enter World War because Pearl Harbor was an unprovoked terrorist attack. Also, America had to respond and defend itself. Hitler was also posing a threat to the safety of the entire world. If the United States had not counterattacked Japan, we would have looked weak for the world because we didn't defend ourselves.

After the Japanese attack on the American naval base at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. USA enters a war against the Japanese and President Roosevelt declared the 19 February 1942 Executive Order 9066 . The executive order 9066 consisted of transportation and introduction to anyone who was Japanese or Japanese descendent consentracion camps. Many of the transladados were Japanese and American resulado was forcing more than 100,000 people to leave their homes and belongings to be imprisoned only because of their race. The justification of the American govierno for aprensar and detain suspected Japanese Americans since the govierno believed they could have helpers or spy in the attack on Pearl Harbor. The camps were closed until after the reelection

Just cause is the justification of waging war. The simplest way to achieve this is for the nations to defend itself from being physically and aggressively attacked by another nation. The United States and its allies were able to accomplish this. By 1939 Europe was in turmoil and Great Britain and France were watching on in horror as Hitler’s Nazi Germany had steam rolled through Czechoslovakia and Poland; and later in 1940 sweeping through France. The United States faced physical aggression by Japan, and only then was there a call to war. Prior to the events in early December, the U.S. wanted to remain distanced from the war in terms of man power; but not material. The Allies of a matter of self-defense and coming to the defense of others, as well

On December 7th, 1941, Japanese fighter planes staged an attack on U.S naval and military forces based in Pearl Harbour, Hawaii. In around just two hours, America suffered from approximately 3,435 casualties including 2,000 deaths. The shattering defeat cost the U.S, 8 battle ships and around 200 airplanes. The following day, President Roosevelt asked Congress to declare war on Japan. This was approved, and more than two years into the conflict, America had eventually fully committed to the war.

Less than one year into his second presidency, Franklin D. Roosevelt was tasked with consoling a country in a national state of hysteria. Events in World War II, including the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, lead to inflated paranoia and hostility towards people of Japanese descent in America. As a response to the Americans citizens anxiety, Franklin D. Roosevelt passed Executive Order 9066 in 1942. This order gave military personnel the authority to designate areas to be Internment camps to exile and deprive the rights of Japanese aliens, as well as innocent Japanese Americans. Mandatory evacuations were enforced all over the west coast, where those of Japanese descent were forced to relocate to the Internment Camps. Authorizing this situation

Japanese Internment Executive Order 9066 was issued on February 19, 1942, by President Roosevelt, two months after the attack on Pearl Harbor. It declared that “any and all persons” could be detained and taken off of the West Coast due to military necessity. Executive Order 9066 was established because on December 7, 1941, Japan struck a United States Naval Base in Honolulu, Hawaii killing 2,043 Americans and injuring 1,000 more American citizens. They struck the United States with bombs trying to destroy their battleships and their army. One day after the attack, the United States declared war on the Japanese Empire.

After the bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, many people were dubious towards many Japanese-Americans and believed they were working with Japan. With this, on February 19, 1942, President Roosevelt signed the Executive Order 9066, moving several Japanese-Americans into concentration camps, calling it a “military necessity” (Ewers 1). When this happened, many Japanese-Americans lost everything they had owned such as houses, farms, and their rights as American citizens.

World War II began in 1939 and ended in 1945. This war killed more people and destroyed more property than any other war with fifty-nine countries being involved in(2). Pearl Harbor, the first sneak attack by another country on US soil was a pivotal beginning to the war for the United States. There were many reasons for the United States to get involved into the war and help its allies, but it was Pearl Harbor which forced us into it. Because of Pearl Harbor, Hitler and the crimes against humanity that he committed it justified United States entry into the war.

When Franklin Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066 on February 19, 1942,1 thousands of Japanese-American families were relocated to internment camps in an attempt to suppress supposed espionage and sabotage attempts on the part of the Japanese government. Not only was this relocation based on false premises and shaky evidence, but it also violated the rights of Japanese-Americans through processes of institutional racism that were imposed following the events of Pearl Harbor. Targeting mostly Issei and Nisei citizens, first and second generation Japanese-Americans respectively,2 the policy of internment disrupted the lives of families, resulting in a loss of personal property, emotional distress,

The relocation of Japanese Americans was an event that occurred within the United States during World War II. On February 19th, 1942, Franklin D. Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066, which forced all Japanese Americans living in the West Coast to be evacuated from the area and relocated to internment camps all across the United States, where they would be imprisoned. Approximately 120,000 people were sent to the camps and the event lasted through the years 1942 and 1945. The main cause of the relocation and internment of these people was because of fear made among Japanese people after Japan had bombed Pearl Harbor in 1941. Citizens of the United States had been worrying about the possibility of Japanese residents of the country aiding Japan, and/or secretly trying to destroy American companies.

More than 66% of the Japanese-Americans sent to the internment camps in the spring of 1942 were born in the United States and many had never been to Japan but still all were wrongly accused. Soon after the horrific bombing of Pearl Harbor, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066 ordering all Japanese-Americans to evacuate the West Coast and leave their beloved homes. Although many Japanese American internees accepted their fates, there were still many who were strongly against incarceration and spoke their minds.

December 7, 1941 was one of America’s darkest days. This was the day of the famous pearl harbor bombing. This attack came from the Japanese attacking the American Naval base in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The attack had been in the planning for many years to attack and weaken the United States Naval force. Japan wanted to do this to gain more superiority in the Atlantic and to grow their ties with European nations. In this paper I will talk about the people, the planning, the attack, and the aftermath of the Pearl Harbor bombing.

On Sunday morning, December 7, 1941, at 7:55 AM the Japanese Empire led a surprise attack on the US Naval base Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, that would leave millions of Americans in shock, and heartbroken. Before the attack, the United States kept a low profile on International affairs, and concentrated on the domestic affairs at hand. This tragic moment in American history forever remembered. It is a mournful day for the American people, although, for the Japanese Empire it was an honorable day, one they would call a

In July 1940, the U.S. placed an embargo on Japan, hoping they would restrain Japan 's military aggression in China. Japan, a proud nation, would not hear of being dictated to by the United States and began to prepare for the attack on Pearl Harbor in early 1941. Meanwhile, there was some warning of the attack on America, but it went without being duly acknowledged. The day before the attack occurred, a code-breaker intercepted a message from the Japanese concerning the movement of ships at Pearl Harbor. The operator relayed the message to the superior officers who said they would get back to the radioman on Monday, December 8, 1941 (Socolow 43). Also, on the morning of the attack, a radar operator saw a large group of airplanes on the radar screen, and when he reported this, the senior officer said it was probably just some US Bombers and not to worry about them (HistoryNet.Com). The Japanese planes flew under the radar by flying through a pass in the mountains called Kolekole Pass. This maneuver added to the surprise of the attack. The frantic attack began on Sunday at 7:55 in the morning. A little before ten the entire attack was over (Pearl Harbor, Attack On). The men of Pearl Harbor fought with valor.
