Excellent Resource for Causes of the 1917 Russian Revolution
By Edmund P. Leigh
Robert Wilton was a British military liason officer and witnessed first hand the terrible tradgedy of the 1917 Russian Revolution. He was with the British consulate during the start of the 1917 revolution and the terrible aftermath. He took many notes and wrote about what he saw when he returned to Britain in 1919. He was there trying to ascertain the reasons why Russia allied with Britain and France in the struggle against the Central Powers was undermined by left wing Marxist revolutionary forces led by Lenin and Trotsky. He explains the main reasons why a great nation imploded and went from Orthodox Christian Civilization led by a Czar with a free press, trial by jury and a fairly stable rule of law to a Russian provisional government to Red and White Civil War and finally to the abysmal and savage Red Terror or government by the end of a gun and where opponents were sent in massive numbers to build Gulags and canals.
How did this tradgedy happen ? What were the causes ? Who was responsible ? Wilton spreads the responsibility around to several parties. He laments that Alexander II was a fine family man but was not suitable for ruling Russia; he could not make tough decisions when it matter the most. The Czar lost prestige and crediblity from his family ties to the notorious Russian mystic Rasputin who remarkably had the ability to stop bleeding in the Czar's only son who had inherited hemophilia from Queen Victoria's side of the family. Russia was not ready for conflict logistically. They did not have the munition cabability or the latest communication ability. They did have the bravest soldiers in Europe but logistics and armaments were not sufficient and the Germans drove them back with severe defeats such as at Tannenberg. There were shortages of food for the Russian population and after four years of war much of the population lost faith with the Czar and the Red Soviets eagerly exploited the difficulties with a vision of a worker's paradise where there would be no rich or poor but all proletariats......all brothers in sharing Russia. Desperate people do desperate things especially when evil men beckon with promises to make things better in a worker's paradise. Although the serfs had been freed decades prior probably 80 % of the population was semi-illiterate. Having many, many ill informed, illiterare and easily swayed ex-serfs was another salient cause for the Red Revolution. They could be whipped up into a frenzy to kill the upper classes and they did at the urgings of the commissars who acted as secular priests for the revolution. It was a terrible storm of murder and vengence on millions of innocents.
The Czar had kept Russia intact in the 1905 Revolution thru a combination of reform and increased security measures. But this time the Marxist's forces had outside funding from America and Germany and had improved their game plan for conquest. They had learned their lessons and improved their skills. Karensky was head of the weak and feckless Russian provisional government. He was inept and not capable of seeing the internal threats until it was too late. The Marxists were experts in persuading the poor and have-nots that all would be well in the Marxist workers paradise. Most of the former serfs believed that a classless society would be an improvement on the class structure. They allowed themselves to be enslaved for 3 generations until 1991. The Ancient Greeks were right; the rule of the mob is the worst form of government. In this case it was rule of the mob which did not believe in God or the existence of the human soul.
Of course the Germans wanted Russia out of the war and it was not hard to convince Lladimir Lenin to leave Switzerland and enter on a sealed train to Leningrad to arouse the masses during the provisional government phase after the Czar abdicated.
Germany of course supplied Lenin with funds to ensure the revolution would be successful. Also the provisional Russian government allowed many left wing radicals from New York to take part in the incipient revolution. It was a tradgedy with many fathers and causes. But there was some good news. Finland, Poland, Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia did break away successfully and formed independent courtries not under Soviet control.
Excellent research book on a topic most people are not familiar with. Highest recommendation.

Taliban in Motther Russia
By moises pittounikos
Believe it or not, the United States and the British Empire officially saw the Bolshevic's as a crazy bunch of Talibani's. That's why Sir Winston Churchill wrote that famous article that I won't go into here. But it was the official line until 1939. Before 1939, the Americans gave those commies a wide berth.
So Robert Wilton isn't at all controversial because even the yanks and the Brits knew that it wasn't Russians who seized power in Russia. It was an alien, 'diabolical', people who wanted revenge, as Winston Churchill wrote in his trademark Gibbonesque prose.
By some crazy alignment of the stars, the Taliban parallel hasn't been pulled out of a hat. The editors of the time-line inspired the Taliban to blow up those giants Buddha's? Why? Well this was a warning from history. The destruction of a beautiful monument to architecture was a warning that an alien culture will do this.
So when the Bolshevic's took power, they blew up the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, the biggest cathedral in the world. But this wasn't because of ideology, as they say. The Nazi's didn't blow up cathedrals and neither did the French revolutionaries. It has to be an outside force, or, as they used to say, an alien tribe.
So the way a muslim can easily dynamite those giant Buddha statues, a Jew dynamited the Cathedral of Christ the saviour, and use the Icon of the Mother of God as target practice!
