"US Hid Report in WW2"

Parody Written by:

Robert D. Arndt Jr.

The Lyrics

Newly released documents prove that the Japanese-Americans that were interned during WW2 were unfairly detained. Charles Fahy hid US Naval Military Intelligence reports that indicated that the US citizens were of no military threat, yet Fahy wanted them interned out of "military necessity". 120,000 Japanese-Americans suffered...
US hid report in WW2
it was a crime

Should have stopped US crime during WW2
there’s no denyin’
Charles Fahy was lyin’

President Roosevelt couldn’t stand it
Jap-Americans runnin’ around
He should have known better
Than to put US citizens in (barbed-wire) towns

US hid report in WW2
it was a crime
Exposed in time

Internment in WW2
Internment in WW2
Internment in WW2
Internment in WW2, flaw
Despite Navy Intel report
Japanese-Americans were denied
equal treatment under the law

Military conspiracy
US hid report in WW2
it was a crime
(120,000 imprisoned illegally)

I always thought that the United States was absolutely in the wong for doing the Internment during world war ii. Same with discrimination against blacks. Nice history lesson Rob. 555

555 very nice. The exact same thing happened to Japanese-Canadians in WW2. To make matters worse, after 9/11 everyone around me was shouting the same kind of CRAP and they thought I wasn't too "patriotic" for vocally opposing such a notion ( I am an honorably discharged Armed Forces veteran ). What have we learned? ZILCH! I don't like bin Laden anymore than you do and I sure ain't gonna miss him. But this xenophobic attitude must stop because it plays into enemy hands. George Takei was interred when he was a child. He refers to that part of his life often, not in a bitter way but still clearly telling us that it was wrong. I saw him and met him at a Trekkie event, he's a really cool guy. Just like your parody.
