    "Such a weapon goes far beyond any military objective and enters the range of very great natural catastrophes. By its very nature it cannot be confined to a military objective but becomes a weapon which in practical effect is almost one of genocide”
    ― Enrico Fermi (1901-1954)

      RockinD - You realize the script was written by Albert Einstein…???…And that the narrator is reading Dr. Einstein’s words….Then again, maybe a cartoon is the only way to reach certain people.

    Einstein was a great physicist. But he wasn't neither perfect, neither a marvelous politician, nor a true philosopher... we really should stop using him as the universal "ad authotitas" because it really makes no sense..

    • @GiacomodellaSvezia
      @GiacomodellaSvezia 6 років тому +9

      Your comment makes little sense, using a double negative. And what does "ad authotitas" mean?
      Einstein wasn't just a great physicist, he had a profound opinion on life and religion and he was very aware of the consequences of his mathematical work, that was foundational not only to the development of nuclear energy, but also of nuclear weapons. What he feared didn't come true in his lifetime, but it could still happen.

    • @Panglos

      True, but should we be criticizing people if we aren't willing or able to produce more than they have ourselves? I don't recall anyone named Ignacio Miranda Saldivar providing improvements to the human condition to the extent Einstein did (despite the fact that many of his efforts were more than undone by politicians). Let he who is without sin cast the first stone, hmm?

    So you could have saved yourselves some time by just having a 5 second video that scrolls "Mutually assured destruction" across the screen. This IS the policy the USA adopted ... I'm not clear on the purpose of this video unless you're attempting to use the current heightened state of worry among citizens and a difficult to understand accent to fear-monger for the sole purpose of views.
