it is also available on demand. oliver stone joins us here in new york and his co-author also joins us. we welcome you both to "democracy now!" you have been working on this for years, unbeknownst to many people. why? >> it is pretty epic. from the 1940 -- 4.5 years off and on. i did do three feature films and two documentaries during that period. we started in 2008. discussed in 1997. we talked about making a documentary of about one hour or one hour and a half. he is an expert on weaponry and the atomic on. he founded the department of nuclear studies.

they areo the link -- still learning this myth that we learned -- that we dropped the bomb because we had to. that we would have lost many american mice taking japan. there is no alternative to that story. process ofnning the saying, the bomb did not have to be dropped. strategically it made no sense. >> why? >> because the japanese were already defeated. they were looking for a way out of the war. the united states knew they were defeated. telegram fromed a the japanese emperor asking for peace.

everybody knew they were militarily defeated. trying to get the russians to intervene on their behalf. they wanted better terms. they wanted to welcome an american invasion, inflict heavy betteries, and then get terms of surrender. we had already been bombing japanese cities. we firebombed over 100 cities. from the japanese standpoint, whether it was 200 planes with 1000 bombs or one plane and one bomb, it did not change the equation. changed thenvasion equation. a huge army to the east from the german frontier.

they wiped out the army in about two days or one-day. , ifou let one month go by we really are interested in ending this war and using russian troops, we can do it. theet's get a clip from series. this challenges the prevailing logic on world war ii. generations of americans have been taught that the united states reluctantly dropped atomic bombs at the end of world war ii to save the lives of hundreds of thousands of young men poised to die in an invasion of japan. moretory is really complicated, more interesting, and much more disturbing. many americans few world war ii nostalgically as the good war in which the united states and its allies triumphed over german not see is him, tell you in fascism, and japanese militarism.

others, not so blessed. they remember it is the bloodiest war in human history. by the time it was over, 60 million people lay dead, including an estimated 27 million soviets. between 10 and 20 million chinese. 6 million jews. 6 million germans. 3 million non-jewish poles. 2.5 million japanese. 1.5 million yugoslavs. >> oliver stone, the good war and the war with the most carnage in the history of the world. >> it is a huge story. we deal with the rivalry.

the british empire is the dominant empire. churchill is fighting, among other things, for the retention of the colonies. very important. and north africa, egypt, suez, india. he never starts a second front for about two years. stalin is rolling the germans back and winning the war as the americans and british are preferably pecking in retaining the british colonies. the british went into africa after they liberated it and end up fighting street battles with the communist resistance fighters who fought later on. wasut in a greek who working with the nazis.

it is a dirty story. >> most people think that the united states won the war. for most of the work, the american and british combined were fighting 10 german divisions. the russians alone were fighting 200 german divisions. churchill himself said the russians tore the guts out of the german army. >> let's go to another clip. wallace,is about henry franklin delano roosevelt's vice president and commerce secretary. it suggests that he would have put america on a radically --ferent subject or he trajectory had his path not been blocked for the democratic leaders. >> seeing the workload gathering , -- war clouds gathering, decided to break with

precedent and run for a third term. the stakes were high. options andited his chose his controversial secretary of agriculture, henry a wallace, as his running mate. wallace had seen an extraordinary return to agricultural prosperity during the great depression. these policies had been at the heart of the new deal. for the urban poor, he had also provided food stamps and school lunches. he instituted programs for land-use planning and soil conservation. he carved out his credentials in the new deal years as an outspoken anti-fascist. consider the scientific community's best ally, he spoke out strongly against the building up of false racial theories, and rebuke of the hitler policies in germany. chemiste carver, now a

at tuskegee university. he first introduced me to the mysteries of fertilization. he spent a good many years breeding corn. deepened myst appreciation of plants in a way that i can never forget, superior ability is not the exclusive possession of any one race or any one class, provided men are given the right opportunities. but democratic party bosses feared wallace's views, mistrusting his devotion to principle over politics. it looked like the wallace nomination would go up in flames when roosevelt, angry and frustrated, wrote a remarkable letter to the assembled delegates when he turned down the presidential nomination. >> the democratic party has failed when it has fallen to the control of those who think in terms of dollars instead of human values.

arty shakesmocratic off the shackles of controlled fastened upon the by the forces of conservatism, reaction, and appeasement, it will not continue its march to victory. face in bothnot directions at the same time. therefore, i decline the honor of the nomination for the presidency. >> his wife saved the day. the first president's wife ever to address the convention. delegatesisgruntled that they faced a grave situation. >> an ordinary time. >> the bosses buckled. news ofe just heard the my nomination and there was one thing i want to say. that under the

leadership of president roosevelt we shall have a united democratic arty, victory in november, and security for the american people. of henryas the voice wallace, nominated as vice president. oliver stone, your inspiration for the soul series was about henry wallace. why? talk about his significance. >> i would say the inspiration was the bomb, the atomic bomb. i grew up right in that period. the bomb shaped all of our lives. we lived in fear of it as we were in school. we came near the cuban missile crisis. it haunts our policy. we were in a cold war up until my teen 89 with the soviets. it continues on. there was no peace dividend. i am wondering what happened in the 1989-1991 period.

this goes into the war on terror, the war on drugs. i talked to peter. he knows a lot about the bomb. did the bomb have to start all this/ the bomb leads you to wallace because wallace was the key fake your -- figure. it is an inside deal. it is really ugly. it is a frank capra movie. in one particular night, it comes down to a moment in time like nine seconds one wallace almost makes it, he almost squeezes in. the crowd is cheering. the bosses convened the convention that night and overnight they turned favors and money and bribes. wallace does not end up as vice president. roosevelt dies. an unknown party hack called harry truman at one of the most important times in the history of the world becomes leader of the world, with all of the power

and like a george bush he blows a. -- it. >> henry wallace would later run for president. >> he was smeared repeatedly as a communist at that point. the real drama is the 1944 convention. a visionary. he has been lost to history. he was an extraordinary man. said the 20th century must be the american century. famous countered in a speech that said the 20th century must be the century of the common man. he called for a worldwide people revolution in the tradition of the american revolution, french revolution, russian revolution. he said we have to wipe out the monopolies and cartels. he said, we have to end colonialism, imperialism, raise standards of living. the u.s. and the soviets have to

collaborate to remake the world at the end of the world. the party bosses hated him, as did wall street. the anti-labor people hated him. people against civil rights hated him. the people against women's rights hated him. we will be back in a minute. ♪
