It did NOT end up with the bulk of the resources. At best, it has been overtaking them for China.In WW 1 it became the naval power — displacing little Britain. Then in WW 2 it became the industrialized nation that had not been a battle ground… apart from the token damage in Hawaii.It has held that position until it began outsourcing it's heavy industry in the 1960’s; then in 1989 Europe normalized from the wars and America continued outsourcing. But it's educational system and commerce focus promoted technology's which allowed it to coast ahead.Anti-immigration attitudes which have been systemic to the nation are soon going to have their effect, and China or India, or both, will resume their historic trade positions. The current election will determine how soon, and how much damage the nation will sustain.If sufficient damage, America will take actions which, in 25 years, will force a third war. Based on their scripture, it is a war the Middle East will welcome… for them, the trigger will be the end of fossile fuel dependence and the return to poverty it will force… combined with the practice they are now getting. Of course, the anti-immigration policy and lack of babies will ensure America has insufficient manpower to survive the conflict… though its technological state will ensure the war is messy.As stated, it was temporary guardianship and basically ended in 1990.

Most Americans are aware of President Franklin D Roosevelt's Presidential Executive Order 9066 that forced Japanese Americans on the West Coast to be resettled in interment camps. What is less know is that the FBI rounded up "enemy aliens" to be used for the purpose of POW exchanges. Many Americans citizens had been captured by the Germans, Japanese, and Italians, and after the US joined WW2, exchanges were made between these countries at war with America, for their citizens in America, for Americans held aboard.Within hours after the attack on Pearl Harbor, FBI Director Hoover’s FBI agents arrested hundreds of Japanese that had been under surveillance. By the first two weeks of the war, FBI agents had in their custody 1,430 Japanese, 1,153 Germans 215 Italians in the continental United States and Hawaii.In the course of the war, the US government round up of Axis enemy aliens interned would total 31,275. More than half were Japanese at 16,849, which were totally separate from those Japanese Americans that were sent to relocation camps, and weren’t considered enemy aliens. 10,905 Germans would make up the next largest group of enemy aliens interned followed by 3,278 Italians, 52 Hungarians, 5 Bulgarians, 25 Romanians and 161 more people listed as “other.”What follows is the case of a German family, guilty of nothing more than needed to be hostages exchanged for American caught behind the enemy lines.Mathias Eiserloh and his wife Johanna had came from Germany to America 17 years before Germany declared war on America after Pearl Harbor. They had made there home is Strongsville, a community near Cleveland, Ohio. Mathias was a structural engineer, making a good living at the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company in Cleveland earning comfortable $60 a week, supporting a family of five.Mathias Eiserloh was going to come to the attention of the immigrants that might be suspected of subversive activities. President Roosevelt had ordered FBI Director Hoover in 1936 to investigate American members of the Nazi movement or others that might pose a security risk in the event of war. Just as his reign years earlier in hunting down subversives during the Red Scare in the 1920's, Hoover would far exceeded what those had assigned him intended.Hoover expanded his FBI to counter this perceived growing national espionage threat. Daily reports were expected from Hoover’s spy busting agents out in the field , about subversive activities, real, suspected, or imaged. To gather leads, informants of often used dubious characters or witnesses who tattlings were often used to take up space in the reports. Acting on such meaningless information, Mathias Eiserloh was visited by FBI agents.The Eiserloh had settled in a neighborhood where half were German, many like themselves, having been born in Germany. But it was a non German neighbor that brought the FBI agents to the Eiserloh's house just a month after Pear Harbor. The neighbor reported that the Eiseloh's had a secret room in the basement, and also a cistern there. To add credibility, the neighbor stated the cistern could be “filled with quicklime used to dispose of dead bodies in the event of war.”The FBI made a courtesy call with the local police chief who discounted everything, so the FBI agents paid the Eiserloh a visit, with guns very visible. Mathais allowed them to search the house, though they hadn't needed his permission as they already had a search warrant signed by US Attorney General Francis Biddle.For a few hours the FBI searched through the house, looking for suspicious items, something as common as cameras or refined like a shortwave radio, or even machines guns or dynamite, none of which was found. Letters were confiscated and it was noted from bank statements that the family had $700 in a savings account.Nothing incriminating was found in the search, yet the agents handcuffed Mathias, placing him under "custodial detention." Because Mathias was a legal alien resident from Germany, which was at war wit the US, Eiserloh didn't have any rights under US laws, meaning he could be held in prison indefinitely. Mathis was not allowed to contact a lawyer, and no charges were ever filed, or was he convicted of a crime. But according to the report filed by the FBI. Mathias Eiserloh was now considered a "dangerous enemy alien."Johanna was beside herself. Most neighbors didn't help when they claimed the government never arrests innocent men. Six days later on Jan. 14th. a citizen alien review board heard testimony from some employees at the Pittsburgh Glass Plant that Mathias was "Pro-Nazi." His brother-in-law who had become an American citizen, vouched for Mathis's character, to the point that the board consider releasing Mr. Eiserloh. The meeting was postponed with Hoover adding new charges before the next meeting.What Mathias didn't know was that FBI Hoover had taken a personal interest in this case, and wrote a Feb. 11, 1941 letter to Edward J. Ennis, director of the Alien Enemy Control Unit of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, informing him that Eiserloh should be interned. Feb.12th, Hoover's boss, US Attorney General Francis Biddle issued orders that made Eiserloh an official “prisoner of war”. With nothing more than Mathias Eiserloh, having been born in Germany and been a German citizen before coming to the US, Eiserloh was now a POW. Mathias had expressed support for how Hitler was leading Germany before the US entry into WW2, but was not a member of the American Nazi Party.It was acknowledged to Mrs. Eiserloh, by the US government, that for her, it was a hardship having her husband confined. But it was for the protection of peace and the protection of American that such action had been taken. The Eiserloh family had used up their savings and were now destitute.Mathias eventually learned that there was one prison camp were families could be united. But it came at great cost. The family would have to agree to repatriation to Germany. This prison camp was down in Crystal City, Texas. Mathias’ other family members movement to the camp would be considered voluntary, but once inside the camp, there was no leaving it. It was considered a prison, surrounded by barb wire, and anyone trying to escape would be shot. Still the accommodations were adequate, including food, with camp employees complaining the inmates lived better that they did. Still it was military prison camp, with daily inspections. Flower beds at some of the units gave the camp a somewhat pleasant sight. When the Eiserloh family was united back together in July 1943, the Crystal City internment camp had 400 Germans and 145 Japanese.Inmates could earn 10 cents an hour, or a total of $4 a week. There was a German, Japanese, and American school for the children. Seeing how the his children were going to be repatriated to Germany, Mathias had his children attend the German school. Many of these German children were from South America.January 1945, would be the last of the 6 exchanges of "POW's" that would take place, which included the Eiserloh family. Before departing the Crystal City camp, all adult internees had to sign an oath of allegiance promising not to disclose details of their interment or exchange. Also Mathias had to take an oath not to perform military service in Germany. On the train ride to New York, Johanna gave birth to a son, so the family now numbered six. On Jan. 7, 1945, 183 German "POW's" from Crystal City, and 856 German civilians from other internment camps around the country had boarded the POW exchange ship. In the end, the number of Americans returned who had been caught behind enemy lines totaled 2,361, exchanged for 4,500 Germans, and 124 Italians, who had been interned in American camps.For Mr. and Mrs. Eiserloh, they would once again see the Statue of Liberty like they had viewed 22 years earlier, except this time they were leaving for Germany.In 1947 Mathias’ daughter Ingrid and son Lothar would return to the US, under the guardianship of his sister. The rest of the family would be denied re-entry visas until 1955. Lothar would say his father by then was “a broken man,” having struggled in to support the family in post war Germany. Mathias died in 1960, and a year later Johanna became a US citizen.Johanna was bitter about the US interning the family, especially when reading articles about the Japanese Americans that were interned without mention of German internees. “It made her feel invisible,” said her son Ensi. The US never gave an apology or financial settlement to any of the German “POW’s,” though many had not been convicted of a crime.
