World War II

During World War II, when Japan aligned themselves with the Germans, Japanese-Americans were considered dangerous to U.S. safety and to the American war time effort so they were imprisoned (many of which were from the bay area) in camps.

What about the German-Americans? Why weren't they imprisoned? Wouldn't they be the larger "threat"?
We dropped the Atomic bomb on Nagasaki and Hiroshima and didn't drop any Atomic bombs in Germany.
Can someone with some real deep knowledge of history justify that to me?

I am asking these questions because I would really like to know and have some justification to put my mind at ease.
