Post #6 Osama Bin Laden, then Internment Camps

First, with Osama's recent death, I feel it is important to outline my opinion on the current events.  I believe that the death of Osama bin Laden will change nothing.  If anything, we are now going to get attacked out of revenge.    We have turned bin Laden into an immortal legend that stands for an ideal that will never die.  I think we should have taken every opportunity to capture him but not kill him.

The readings for this post were very interesting and hit home for me as a person of Japanese ancestry.  It is horrible to hear the conditions that the Japanese had to live in and the awful prejudice they had to endure.  Living in horse stables is not right for someone that is an American citizen who most likely has more allegiance to the United States than to Japan.




This picture shows how many Japanese were forced to leave their businesses that they had built even though they wanted to help with the war effort like every other American.

  1. I really liked that you used your blog to comment on current events and the inclusion of pictures helps as well. However, more detail and analysis about the stories you read would have been helpful.
