From the article, here is a statement from the movie:

“Every man who worked on this thing told you what would happen,” Julian argues. “The scientists signed petition after petition. But nobody listened. There was a choice. It was build the bombs and use them. Or risk the United States and the Soviet Union and the rest of us would find some way to go on living.”

Simply and completely false. Essentially, better Red than Dead. Steyn is usually better on his science.

The author is Rick McGinnis, who does the movie reviews for Steyn-on-Line. And I think that’s what the character from the movie is saying.
