It is not normal that today, Albert Einstein has such great popularity (the SR is not him, but the French; the RG, it is Grossmann and Hilbert), the atomic bomb, he (he only knew Pouic, it was Oppenhaimer). This is obviously voluntary.

Question: Who? For what? Which great power had an interest and still has an interest in promoting Einstein (a useful idiot) rather than Poincaré (the greatest mathematician in history, and the only one to have been able to master the entirety of three sciences, mathematics, philosophy, physics) ?

It's a good question.

Note that part of the answer consists of:
- Albert Eisntein was naturalized American.
- In his political will, François Mitterrand will say:
“France does not know it, but we are at war with America, a merciless war, apparently without death, but a war to the death.”

François Mitterrand led France for 14 years, and he had the nuclear code. When a man like that says things like that, we should at least open an investigation.

As we never talk about who blew up the Nordstream which supplied France and Germany with quality gas.
Hence, in part, the fall of the current European economy.
Who was annoyed that Europe bought gas from the Russians?
There are things you shouldn't talk about.

 This is quite (pathetically) funny to read such demented people (Richard
& Thomas) confronting their "views".
 Richard: according to Thomas Einstein is not really *German*, (blink
blink) if you see what I mean (blink blink)... It is obvious when you
read his posts. Of course he cannot express as clearly as he wanted
his opinion because there are some laws about that in Germany.

My assumption was, that Einstein's CV was seemingly impossible and a more possible explanation would be, that Einstein was a Swiss citizen from birth and his CV a fake.
As impossible I would regard his work in the Swiss patent office, because in the German speaking world 'Amt' means 'state owned facility' and is the place to work of 'Beamte'.
Such employees of the state had certain (very desirable) privileges, like lifelong employment and high pensions.
As they represent the state, only born citizens were eligable as 'Beamter'.
This was the case at least in Germany in the early 20th century.
About Swizzerland I'm uncertain, because I don't know Swiss laws, but assume, they were relatively similar to German laws.
This assumption (Einstein was actually Swiss) would, btw, fit to all other known fact about his life.
Therefore, this is a very good assumption, even theough it might be actually wrong.
