I didn't mean that it should have been in the movie. There has to be scope, especially in movies. But it is important to learn about these things. Oppenheimer just gives an opportunity to revisit these untold stories. It was the article itself that brought up the link between the marbles indicating how much refined (I believe it was actually enriched but the article just talked about refined ore) and what was going on in the Congo behind the scenes. For every great man/woman/story, there are thousands of others that prop them up for greatness, often being forced to do so.
So my intent in posting was not a criticism of the movie, but simply to share this story that I had just learned.
Coming from the Congo, I knew where the essential ingredient for the atomic bombs was mined, even if everyone else seemed to ignore it.

It is a sad history of cruelty and oppression, and a big part of the story that didn't make the screen in Oppenheimer. It gives the marble scenes a much deeper meaning.
The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.

I use organizr and haven't felt the need to try anything else. It can host other sites in an iframe which really gives all the disparate apps a unified feel. Some sites can be a bit difficult to set up, but once you do it works great.
