How can we tell if Heisenberg was telling the truth or not in regards to the Atom bomb ?
In truth, we can't know for 100%, but all the evidence points to him being, if not a Nazi as such, a loyal German.
With the exception of his error in working out the amount of material needed to made a bomb, there is no evidence of him hindering the Nazi war effort in any other way, and he didn't claim he had hindered the Nazi atom bomb work until sometime after the US had dropped the bomb on Japan.
