Read the following quote from U.S. Congressman Gerry Studds, “If John Cabot were alive today, he would not recognize Georges Ban

He is talking about the aspirations of a death man, John Cabot, and the "good" things he hoped for Georges Bank. He wanted greatness, and the reality was there was not more than a disaster. Nothing had turned the way he expected.

We can notice because of the contrast seen in the words used: He wanted lots and good fishes, (using a metaphor) and got bad and disastrous ones.

Was President Roosevelt justified in ordering Executive Order 9066, which resulted in the internment of Japanese American citize
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Argument Detailing Roosevelt was not justified:

Roosevelt Put thousands of Japanese citizens of the US into Internment camps, initially ending Japanese freedom in the US. Now, I could see this as an act to prevent Japanese sabotage in the United states however, This act ended Japanese Business, Japanese dreams of success. This was effectively one of roosevelts worst descisions. Roosevelt justified the order on the area  of military necessity, declaring that Japanese Americans were a threat to national security. This was not justified at all! How could every Japanese citizen collude with its  government? I think that Roosevelt was blindsided by the suprise attack just like every american and treated the japanese nationality with hostility and disrespect!

Argument Detailing Roosevelt was Justified: He was very justified. We were talking peace with the Japanese before the pearl harbor attacks,trying to find a solution to our deteriorating relations, Thousands of american Sailors and marines died that day and the Japanese could attack from inside the US using Sabotage and spies, Many Japanese agreed with Imperialistic Japanese views! They believed Japan should be a Great empire with vast territory and a large army. The only way to stop an entire attack from inside the US was to put Japanese citizens in these internment camps!
