Answer:
They believed that internees should not help in the war effort because the internment of the Japanese was unjust.
Explanation:
With the attack on Pearl Harbor during the Second World War, the war in America began to form internally. The Axis powers in which japan was a part of in conflict with the Allied Powers, which included the United States. And as such, action was taken against the Japanese- Americans living/ settling in America.
As it was the Axis powers (Japan) that attacked an American military base, the United States' government began to order the internment of its Japanese-American citizens just because of their physical connection to the enemy. With the attack deemed as a huge threat to the national security of America, every Japanese descent American was ordered to move to the internment camps, leading to a massive round-up. Though it was never a case of trying to 'punish' them for what their home country had done to their adopted country, it was evident that the move was to 'isolate' any Japanese man and restrict any chance of an 'informer' or 'secret agent'.
So, in protest to this order, the internees objected to anyone who chose to work for the US government because the internment was an unjust and unfair act in itself to the Japanese people.
The United States wants Japan to get rid of the clause. The reason behind them wanting to do this is for Japan to rise in the region in response to China. China is becoming very powerful in the region and has a lot of influence over the region and the US would like Japan to deter China's influence.
