Did Eleanor Roosevelt give the atomic bomb to Joseph Stalin?

Answer 1

Maybe. I mean, somebody had to do it.
ER: "Hey Joe, how are you?"
JS: "Ah, Eleanor, always a pleasure! What can I do for you?"
ER: "Straight to the point!"
JS: "I have little patience for pleasantries, something we have in common."
ER: [Laughs] "Yes, Joe! You see, my departed husband left this atomic bomb and it's giving me ... problems."
JS: "MMM ... I see. And what does Eleanor want with this ... white elephant?"
ER: "You see everything, Joe. You're such a special man."
J'S: [laughs] "And you are too honest for deceitful flattery. So your complement rings true, Eleanor. The elephant is too heavy, no?"
[both laugh]
ER: "Joe, take it. It's just better that you have it. I'm a pacifist!"
JS: "I know my dear, so how do we manage this ... exchange?"

Hitler had the knowledge, but he couldn't use it because it would have ruined him politically. After the war, the remaining powers employed his scientists and the information became available. That makes sense.

Answer 2

Absolutely no.Joseph Stalin was a dangerous man and Roosevelt was not a mad man to do so,any way ,the American propaganda at that time said that the German scientists helped the Soviets to have the atomic bomb.

Answer 3

Well, that one's a doozy. How in the dickens would ER have known how it worked?

Current thinking is that several scientists at Los Alamos revealed the workings of the A-bomb. They were not traitors in the traditional sense, but moralists who feared the power that one nation would have if they were the only owners of this weapon.

Further, no one person could have passed this info along. The workings were so complex - as was the theory - that a combined effort was necessary.

Answer 4

No, she would never do such a thing. She was a good woman.
