Einstein was a life-long pacifist.
The 700-page book "Einstein on Peace" is the most comprehensive record of everything he wrote, during his life, about Peace. It was published posthumously, by his family foundation, to counter the uninformed claims, that he gave up his pacifist convictions.
Einstein never urged FDR to start the Manhattan Project. He hadn't believed that energy would be released from the atom, during his life-time. When early experiments showed that this might actually happen, Leo Szilard asked Einstein to sign a letter to FDR, telling him about this possibility.
After World War II, Einstein continued his pacifist views, and became a crusader for nuclear arms control, and peace-making through international negotiations.
