Why did executive order 9066 not apply to persons of japanese descent living in hawaii? a. the number of japanese americans in hawaii was so insignificant that the order seemed irrelevant. b. most persons of japanese descent in hawaii actually served in military units. c. at the time, the federal government did not yet have such jurisdiction over its territorial possessions. d. in the wake of the u. s. navy's defeat at pearl harbor, it was the japanese that governed hawaii. e. since nearly 40 percent of the population was of japanese descent, the evacuation order would have been impractical?
