Not well, and it’s unfortunate. Nicholas II was beginning to turn a corner when it came to domestic priorities, deciding to do more for his people. The Reds killed him and his family before he could implement, according to some documentary I watched awhile back. I guarantee that they weren’t willing to give him an opportunity by that point.

The doc was in Russian (subbed), and hell if I can recall the title.

Then again, if Tsarist Russia remained, Hitler may not have been so easily able to come to power, having been unable to receive aid he would have otherwise gotten from Stalin. If he’d found aid elsewhere, then he may have won without the brutality of the Red Army and two fronts to deal with.

Such an interesting notion.

If the bolsheviks hadn’t come to power, there might never haven been a Nazi party.

It all came from Bolshevism. All of the misery and horror of the 20th century. The ‘errors of russia’ indeed.

FRiends - look carefully at the symbol in the centre of a post-tsarist 1917 ruble. *That* symbol on russian money, at a time where Hitler was in some trench on the western front.

Murdering the family of Nicholas was, in my opinion, one of the worst moments in modern history.

Another was the so-called French revolution, which in NO WAY resembled our American revolution.

Revolutions DO NOT HAVE TO BE SAVAGE TAKEOVERS.

I despise what the French and the Russians did to their countries.

And if we do NOT STOP these “progressives” in America, we will meet the same disgrace in history.
