Did this happen with the Irish in the US during the Troubles?
Same reasons Italians and Germans weren't interned to the same extent the Japanese were during the 2nd World War: They can't be told apart from "proper" folk as easily. You can pick out most Arabs, but it's much harder to pick out most Irish.
Still a travesty. We need to move beyond hatred, especially of people we've never met.
