From the archives: Robert Oppenheimer in 1965 on if the bomb was necessary

In a 1965 interview with CBS News, J. Robert Oppenheimer said about the atomic bomb, "The ending of the war by this means, certainly cruel, was not undertaken lightly. But I am not, as of today, confident that a better course was then open. I have not a very good answer to this question." #oppenheimer #WWII #history CBS News Streaming Network is the premier 24/7 anchored streaming news service from CBS News and Stations, available free to everyone with access to the Internet.
