I am not familiar with a report being issued by Admiral Sherman. Do you have a link?He ordered the report before Pearl Harbor. The report was done before Pearl Harbor. Once Pearl Harbor occurred it became a military affair, concern, and responsibility. You are suggesting FDR should have listened to the diplomat instead of the General.First, the report was created and finished before Dec. 7 and beginning of the war. Second, Munson was nor a soldier or military expert. He was a State Department staffer. Third, the report admits that acts of espionage and even sabotage may occur, in his judgment, the Japanese pose no real threat to be concerned about.Digital History
"The Munson Report
In October and November of 1941, Special Representative of the State Department Curtis B. Munson, under Roosevelt's orders, carried out an intelligence gathering investigation on the loyalty of Japanese Americans. His report concluded that Japanese Americans are loyal and would pose little threat. He wrote: "There is no Japanese `problem' on the Coast ... There is far more danger from Communists and people of the Bridges type on the Coast than there is from Japanese."
Munson investigated under fdr’s own yorders. The scumbag fdr was told there was no threat, and the piece of shit insisted on building his concentration camps anyway.
Chief of Naval Operations is the military as well.
Stop disgracing yourself trying to play the apologist for the fucking scumbag fdr.
