What the 'scientific community' doesn't understand is that since 1905 Albert Einstein made a beeline
to building an atomic bomb. That was his baby. That was His experiment..."prove possible - to test this theory" of his.

It had noting about killing Germans. It simply was just an ...experiment.  ("to test this theory")



By 1939..in order to "test this theory", he needed money to buy more uranium, so he conned the USA government by telling them
'If you don't give me the fuckin money you are all going to die!'


"...b) to speed up the experimental work, which is at present being car-

ried on within the limits of the budgets of University laboratories, by

providing funds, ..."



In order words, Albert Einstein (a government unto himself) was selling 'protection'.


to speed up the experimental work
which is at present
being carried on within the limits
of the budgets of University laboratories




So, he wouldn't have taken TEN YEARS to finish General Relativity if he wasn't
soooo preoccupied  "to test this theory". 





Here is his blueprint to build an atomic bomb
