The September edition of Commentary magazine has a movie review entitled “Oppenheimer was a Communist” by the venerable Cold Warriors Harvey Klehr and John Earl Haynes.
Bravo to you Bruce for helping set the record straight! The movie was very good but the "hearing" scenes were a little too dramatic...and did not give the audience a full appreciation of the facts.
Another great article Bruce. I saw Oppenheimer over the weekend - a worth see movie which handles the AEC review in detail. Your clarity is very welcome in fully explaining the situation. The historical context is so complex as the twenties lead to the thirties and then into a world war of alliances of convenience.

Will we learn to no longer denigrate those who seek truth and follow their lead.
