I like the way you put elastics into the meaning of the word "unlikely" to stretch it beyond the realm of reason. You don't know so leave it at that. You have no way of verifying and your guesses don't constitute absolute truth in the matter.
Here again you talk through your hat. You know nothing of the state of any nuclear program in Germany at that time. We live in a world of possibilities and people ready to do just about anything for money. Sell out their mothers if need be. The Manhatten Project was so secretive they could just as well have been designing M&M candies or ways to get MSG into the food supplies.
If the Germans had spies in the Manhattan Project, they were useless.
I personally have not studied the Reich's nuclear program. On the other hand, I have never seen or read anybody who has argued that they were in danger of getting a working nuclear weapon before 1950.
How are you so sure they would tell anyone that they aquired the information? You assume a lot I find. You assume that history is NOt a set of lies agreed upon. I'll bet in private you agree that history is a lot bull. The victor's truth.
The fact that there are no Brazilian, Greek or Italian atomic weapons suggests this. It took the French until the late 1950s or early 1960s to begin work on such weapons. If their allies had shared this information, Charles de Gaulle would have had a bomb much earlier.
Here again you talk through your hat.
That I may be. If I am, then my hat appears to have more sense than you.
You assume a lot I find.
Indeed I do. I assumed that I could reason with you. I assumed that the others who left this thread were too hasty. I assumed you'd notice that, part from the two of us, the only discussion in here is between RCAF Brat and Blue Max.
They are discussing the fact that, had Little Boy not detonated, the result would have been even more horrific.
Rest assured, I shall take my hat elsewhere, and leave you in peace.
