Answer:
Explanation:
Born from the wartime hysteria of World War II, the internment of Japanese Americans is considered by many to be one of the biggest civil rights violations in American history. Americans of Japanese ancestry, regardless of citizenship, were forced from their homes and into relocation centers known as internment camps. The fear that arose after Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor created severe anti-Japanese prejudice, which evolved into the widespread belief that Japanese people in America were a threat to national security. On February 19, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, giving the government the power to begin relocation.
Executive Order 9066 placed power in the hands of a newly formed War Relocation Authority, the WRA. This government agency was tasked with moving all Japanese Americans into internment camps all across the United States. The War Relocation Authority Collection(link is external) is filled with private reports explaining the importance of relocation and documenting the populations of different camps. WRA Report No. 5 on Community Analysis prepares the reader for the different ways and reasons for which the "evacuees" might try to resist, and how to handle these situations.
This order of internment was met with resistance. There were Japanese Americans who refused to move, allowing themselves to be tried and imprisoned with the goal of overturning Executive Order 9066 in court. The Japanese American Internment Camp Materials Collection(link is external) showcases the trials of Gordon Hirabayashi and Minoru Yasui, two men who had violated the relocation order. In the case of Japanese-American Gordon Hirabayashi, an entire defense committee was created to garner funding and defend him in court. The case made it all the way to the Supreme Court, where the President's orders were declared constitutional and Hirabayashi was pronounced guilty. Minoru Yasui v. The United States met the same fate, with the justification that Yasui had renounced his rights as a citizen when he disobeyed the orders of the state.
While many fought this Order in the court system, non-Japanese Americans found other ways to voice their dissent. Church Groups provided boxed lunches for Japanese people as they left for internment camps, but even this simple act of charity was met with contempt. Letters and postcards from the Reverend Wendell L. Miller Collection(link is external) admonished one group of churchwomen, exclaiming that they were traitors for helping "the heathen" rather than the American soldiers fighting for their country. >

One goal of U.S involvement in the war in Afghanistan was to eliminate the terrorist cell led by Osama bin Laden, after this cell made itself responsible for the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.

Answer:
It grew bigger and stronger.
Explanation:
After the war there were many workers that had been making military equipment and vehicles for the armed forces for years and when the war was over the factory workers all over America now made and produced more goods for common life post WWII such as cars, tvs, refrigerators, houses, etc. There was more of a demand of products of that nature which then brought on more workers to build them which made companies bigger from increased revenue and increased revenue for the steel and lumber companies, which made shares of those companies stocks more valuable in the economy. After the war there was also research to be conducted when the Allies now had access to German inventions such as jet aircraft and recoil operated muzzle boosters to make guns fire faster. More and more jobs were being created and more and more money was made for everyone all over America. In a way, WWII saved the U.S. from more devastating years of the great depression.
