What difference does it make if it kills Germans of Japan? We went to war with both. Japan attacked America. Was Albert Einstein had some kind of Hatred of Germans??? Was it personal? He was with war with Germans all his life? Who made Albert Einstein President of the Earth? Does he think he can tell the United States what to do? Who to murder, who not to murder? You give these little 'science guys' in their lab coats a little power and they want to blow up the Earth!
