Trum-an inspired Trum-p with a MAG-Forever. WHAT FOOLS!!
OPPENHEIMER, WHEN THE US
STARTED TO LOSE THEIR ETHICS
Oppenheimer
is an essential character in US history. He is the left-leaning Jew who provided
the USA with the Atom Bomb that enabled the US to defeat Japan faster than the
planned standard land and air attack by the Soviets and the Chinese Communists,
officially endorsed in the Yalta Conference ( 4–11 February 1945) by
Churchill, Truman, and Stalin. Truman did not have the atomic bomb yet and will
only have it in July 1945. So, he bluffed and agreed with the Soviet plan
because he had no alternative … yet. He reneged his agreement in July-August
1945, and he dropped two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and
9, 1945. The victory over Germany was a joint effort. The victory over Japan
was a self-centered and egotistic solitary procedure not even negotiated with
the allies of the US. The United Kingdom might have been informed, maybe. But
the USSR was not. The Americans were already and had been for nearly two
centuries, on the “America First” and “Make America Great Forever” lines that
we have known all along and directly since 1918.
And
within 9 years Oppenheimer will be ostracized because he was leaning to the
left and there were Communists around him. He submitted and disappeared in some
sideline university job. He had nowhere to go, as opposed to Charlie Chaplin
who went back to England. As a Jew, he could have gone to Israel, but that was
not a real optimistic solution at the time. He might even have gone to the USSR
with his communist wife. But he stayed put in the USA, in his closet-university-job.
The film does not really explore this dilemma: hide away in the USA, go to the
Jewish Israel, or go to the USSR. On one hand, it was his old depressive nature
that came back. On the other hand, it would have been going back to his faith
and his roots, even if it could have looked like treason. On the third hand, on
yet another other hand, it would have been plain treason.
The
special features on the second DVD do not correct this mystery and do not even
envisage it, in real terms. Yet the bio-doc there insists tremendously on his
left-leaning connections. If he had been black, he could have moved to Paris
where Black American authors and musicians were vastly welcome. In France, he
could have worked with the Joliot-Curies, though Frédéric Joliot-Curie was
against working for nuclear weapons. He refused the demand from the French government.
But The film and the special features lock Oppenheimer in a strange straitjacket
of an obsessive psychotic prison, till the end of his life with only one single
supporter named in the marginal side ditch of the story, John Fitzgerald
Kennedy who voted against the ostracization of Oppenheimer in the US Senate.
One vote out of – at the time – ninety-six.
I
will regret that the special features did not insist enough on the basic, fundamental,
and unethical treason of Joseph – like Stalin – McCarthy though in perfect line
with the Monroe Doctrine of the Manifest Destiny of the USA to dominate forever
the whole world. Imagine the frustration of all the MAGA supporters who will
never see that, except if the USA starts the third world war with nuclear
weapons. And try to survive after that.
No one can imagine what makes a film great in the West. It has to caress you on your umbilical egocentricism, and in this case the USA is the greatest entity in the cosmos, even if Truman is nothing but a nearly misspelled Trump.
