Answer:

1. Intense pressure by the Japanese-American Citizens league and redress organization caused the President Jimmy Carter led administration to form a commission to investigate the Internment of the Japanese Americans in 1942.

2. The commission examined the reason for the exclusion and the justification for it. They found that the reasons for exclusion was based on racial prejudice and fear and the justification for internment was baseless.

Explanation:

After the aerial attack of the Pearl Harbor in 1941 by the Japanese government, the U.S Department of War started nurturing suspicions of the Japanese-Americans and therefore sought the Internment of these people. The U.S Department of Justice debated this move as they believed that this decision would result in trampling of the rights of the citizens. President Franklin Roosevelt signed the Executive Order 9066 which saw the actualization of the Internment of Japanese-Americans.

When President Gerald R. Ford realized the injustice meted on this group of people in the year, 1976, he repealed the Executive Order 9066 and in 1980, under President Jimmy Cater, a commission was launched to examine the reasons for the Internment. The commission found that the justification given for the decision of Internment was baseless, because the move was borne from fear and racial prejudice.

What did kennan predict might happen in the soviet union if containment were practiced consistently?
Elanso [62]
Over time, the Soviet Union would either soften in its stance or would break apart from the internal contradictions of its system.

One of the things George Kennan said in his "long telegram" (8,000 words) sent in 1946 was that the USSR's overall methods of propaganda and control were negative and destructive.  "It should therefore be relatively easy to combat it by any intelligent and really constructive program," he said.  Urging a policy of containment rather than direct confrontation with the Soviet Union was a plan for waiting the nation to change in a positive direction or fail because it could not maintain control of its own system.  Kennan said, "<span>Success of Soviet system, as form of internal power, is not yet finally proven. It has yet to be demonstrated that it can survive supreme test of successive transfer of power from one individual or group to another. ... Internal soundness and permanence of movement need not yet be regarded as assured."</span>
