So obviously you are for the internment of all Arabs in the US?

I find this statement of yours implies you do not understand the circumstances involved otherwise you would have not made such a, dare I say for fear of censure, ridiculous statement.

You claim it was a 'terrible loss of liberty' which indeed it was, but then justify it as their country of origin, be it them or their great grandparents, was one we were having hostilities with?

You then sweep it under the rug by holding onto the 'last 30 years' as if there is something special about it, beyond the time when most of us grew up? I see that history is only convenient for some when it can be meshed with their philosophies, and ignored when it shows how wrong they are.

I admit I stopped reading at this point, the justification, condemnation, and dismissal of what is perhaps the greatest loss of liberty Americans have faced required its own response. If circumstance permits I will continue reading at a later time.
