Now that is pretty great, imagine Fermi saying that to Groves, esp. in that time and place...
Groves' own claim to greatness came of course from no battles at all, but from being the guy overseeing the construction of the Pentagon. So he was in essence a good large-scale contractor, which is why they put him in charge of the Manhattan Project in the first place.
Was it something about the 15th of March being the 1st anniversary of the Syrian uprising and the day when Western politicians said that since the government is getting the upper hand, the Western governments ought to provide arms to the people, thereby prolonging the civil war, increasing the number of civilian deaths, providing further post-war arms in the region, increasing guerrilla training to militants and generally adding to suffering whilst claiming to keep their hands blood-free whilst aiding democracy?
Shall I shut up with the politics now?

He was an evil, selfish, scheming, lying, untrustworthy, callous, man who should have been dealt with at the age of 16 as originally intended.
Sadly, he understood how to use the cult of personality and so he is assumed to be some sort of hero. He was a shit.
So a through and through politician then? Thatcher, anyone?
You don't want my opinion of her!
