If we, in modern days, looked back on this moment, we can see FDR was not so different than Hitler for forcing Japanese Americans out their homes and into camps. However, when we look back at the actions during WWII and we understand America's relationship with Japan and the unease it caused Americans, we may be able to sympathize with FDR and understand why he made that decision. He should be criticized for his actions, but those who criticize him should also understand why he made the decision he made.
