Oppenheimer: The Real Plan for U.S. Nuclear Domination, Then and Now

Oppenheimer: The Real Plan for U.S. Nuclear Domination, Then and Now

The blockbuster film “Oppenheimer” shows the lunacy of continued nuclear weapon development as the United States is preparing for war with major nuclear countries. What is the full history of nuclear weapons development and testing in the United States, what was the fallout, and how can the world stop a future nuclear war?

Brian Becker is joined by Greg Mello, nuclear weapons expert and co-founder and Executive Director of the Los Alamos Study Group.
