If it weren't for "The Bomb", many of us baby boomers wouldn't be here......therefore more free stuff for the freeloading DUmmies.

The way things were going had we not used the bomb, Germany would have soon cracked the code and we could today be all speaking German.    OH they were so close, IIRC their problem was Heavy Water--what ever that is----    Rosenberg's       were executed for giving the Russians the final code,
but  at the end of the war the scientists from Germany went to Russia or to the U.S.     

I never believed the Rosenberg's were guilty, they were Jews and not found of Russia.

nadin vesta,

Germany surrendered 3 months before the US used nuclear weapons on Japan. How did the atomic bomb, which had not even been tested yet, influence Germany's surrender?

Julius Rosenberg was dirty. There is some doubt about Ethel, based on later statements by her brother, who was part of the spy cell.

The Japanese were closer to having an atomic bomb than were the Germans. They knew what the bomb was when it was dropped. They destroyed all the paperwork they could on the work they had done toward an atomic bomb. They have never fully admitted that they were trying for one but information came out in the early 90's that they were trying to develop one.

....and the Germans may have contributed some atomic material to our two A-Bombs....look up the last secret mission of German submarine U-234.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

I just looked at the story of U-234. Thanks!

Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

That one would sure come in handy now.

I'm pretty sure DUmmy arcanenumber has no idea what the word "alienable" means.
