George spent time in an internment camp as a child. That’s the grave injustice he would point to, if challenged. But George is a dishonest professional victim. I learned more about him when he was the announcer for the Howard Stern show, he spoke in details about his experience in the internment camp. He described it as “fun” for a kid, like a big adventure with lots of kids to play with and a barracks that felt like summer camp.

We hear plenty about U.S. internment camps, but as usual, the vast network of Japanese internment camps across the Pacific Theater set up by the Japanese to incarcerate Westerners caught in occupied territories is ignored. I recall many years ago reading an article about Westerners held in those camps and their stories detailed varying treatment by the Japanese. Some camps were fairly benign, while others were horrific with slave labor, summary executions, starvation and torture. In some cases, nobody knows what happened in certain camps because the Japanese liquidated the prisoners to cover up their atrocities.

It’s very difficult to find any information about these camps, I can’t find that old article I read from years ago and can only find fragmented references to Japanese internment online. There are references to a few books that were written about Japanese interment camps many years ago but they appear to be out of print and hard to find. Unlike anything that reinforces supposed “White racism,” non-White racism toward Whites is not marketable [or publishers simply refuse to market it]. If you search for “Japanese internment camps” online, you will get hit after hit of stories about US internment of Japanese but it takes some creative searching to finally get a little information about Japanese internment camps. I suspect it has been suppressed because it does not reinforce PC ideology.

Here is a list of Japanese-run internment camps from wiki:
