I am not sure FDR wanted to pack the Japanese into internment camps. There was a well orchestrated campaign to have the Japanese located in California to be moved out. FDR did entertain alternatives including a national charm offensive to show the Japanese as loyal citizens but before those plans could advance the removal campaign became so loud he signed executive order 9066. Essentially, the internment of the Japanese was a land grab disguised as a security issue.
