Nein.
Ich schreibe über EU-Verordnungen, EU-Richtlinien und Produktsicherheit.
Find ich wichtiger als über Politiker.
Es ist schön, dass du die Leute dazu aufrufst bei #wikipedia zu schreiben.
Man kann auch selbst tätig werden und nach Korrektur über die Berichtigung trööten. Fände ich glaubhafter.

From #Wikipedia: Internment of Japanese Americans
"During World War II, the United States forcibly relocated and incarcerated about 120,000 people of Japanese descent in ten concentration camps operated by the War Relocation Authority (#WRA), mostly in the western interior of the country. About two-thirds were U.S. citizens.
"These actions were initiated by Executive Order 9066, issued by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on February 19, 1942, following the outbreak of war with the Empire of Japan in December 1941. About 127,000 Japanese Americans then lived in the continental U.S., of which about 112,000 lived on the West Coast. About 80,000 were Nisei ('second generation'; American-born Japanese with #USCitizenship) and Sansei ('third generation', the children of Nisei). The rest were Issei ('first generation') immigrants born in Japan, who were ineligible for citizenship. In Hawaii, where more than 150,000 Japanese Americans comprised more than one-third of the territory's population, only 1,200 to 1,800 were incarcerated.
"#Internment was intended to mitigate a security risk which Japanese Americans were believed to pose. The scale of the incarceration in proportion to the size of the Japanese American population far surpassed similar measures undertaken against German and Italian Americans who numbered in the millions and of whom some thousands were interned, most of these non-citizens. Following the executive order, the entire West Coast was designated a military exclusion area, and all Japanese Americans living there were taken to assembly centers before being sent to concentration camps in California, Arizona, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, and Arkansas. Similar actions were taken against individuals of Japanese descent in Canada. Internees were prohibited from taking more than they could carry into the camps, and many were forced to sell some or all of their property, including their homes and businesses. At the camps, which were surrounded by barbed wire fences and patrolled by armed guards, internees often lived in overcrowded barracks with minimal furnishing."

Prior use of internment camps in the United States
"The United States Government had previously employed civilian internment policies in a variety of circumstances. During the 1830s, civilians of the indigenous #CherokeeNation were evicted from their homes and detained in 'emigration depots' in Alabama and Tennessee prior to the deportation to Oklahoma following the passage of the #IndianRemovalAct in 1830. Similar internment policies were carried out by U.S. territorial authorities against the #Dakota and #Navajo peoples during the American Indian Wars in the 1860s.
"In 1901, during the Philippine–American War, General J. Franklin Bell ordered the detainment of #Filipino civilians in the provinces of Batangas and Laguna into U.S. Army-run #ConcentrationCamps in order to prevent them from collaborating with #Filipino General Miguel Malvar's guerrillas; over 11,000 people died in the camps from malnutrition and disease."

Now this is very dangerous under #Trump. Think about everything folks have been saying about what's going on -- suddenly becoming ILLEGAL! Just like how #GeorgeSoros paid us all to take to the streets (did you get your check yet?)! But seriously, look what #EnergyTransfer are doing to #Greenpeace! Suing them for "reputational damage"! It's the same BS!
