Stopped the exportation of us goods but actually caused economic despair in port towns and loss of jobs, failing immediately. Internment of japanese americans (1942-46, franklin d. roosevelt) Detained more than 110,00 japanese americans in fear that they would side with japan after pearl harbor, even though 60% were american citizens, some even remaining in camps after the war ended. Sold illegal weapons to iran to the contra right-wing group based out of honduras trying to overthrow the regime. Broke an embargo act against iran and there were congressional hearings.
