> The issue is national origin, not ethnicity. Japanese Americans were thrown into camps for the same reason
```
Of 127,000 Japanese Americans living in the continental United States at the time of the Pearl Harbor attack, 112,000 resided on the West Coast.[9] About 80,000 were Nisei (literal translation: "second generation"; American-born Japanese with U.S. citizenship) and Sansei ("third generation"; the children of Nisei). The rest were Issei ("first generation") immigrants born in Japan who were ineligible for U.S. citizenship under U.S. law.[10]

What do you suggest?
Should there be a upper limit on the generations to be considered not originated from a nation state? According to what happened to WWII Japanese ethnic Americans, that number seems have to be > 3?
And remember that what happened in WWII Japanese internment camp is an evidence that "national origin" as an association was plainly wrong, from the same wiki page:
```
In 1980, under mounting pressure from the Japanese American Citizens League and redress organizations,[30] President Jimmy Carter opened an investigation to determine whether the decision to put Japanese Americans into concentration camps had been justified by the government. He appointed the Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians (CWRIC) to investigate the camps. The Commission's report, titled Personal Justice Denied, found little evidence of Japanese disloyalty at the time and concluded that the incarceration had been the product of racism
```
Emphasis on the last statement: `the incarceration had been the product of racism`.
