B-Chan is absolutely right. Russia desperately needs to reconnect with her pre-Communist past and repudiate Marxism once and for all; restoring the monarchy would accomplish this firmly and decisively. (How can anyone still rejoice in the alleged "fall of Communism" when a KGB hack is currently leading the Russian government?) What Russia needs is a head of state not tainted by any connection to the Soviet Union; who better than HIH Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna, 49, or her son HIH Grand Duke Georgiy, 22, who were born in exile?

That said, I'm not optimistic; we monarchists are still a small minority. But one can always hope. God Save the Tsar!

I agree. His Imperial Majesty Czar Nicholas II was a weak ruler and a terrible judge of character -- but let no one criticize his devotion as a husband, a father, or a Christian. He made mistakes, he sinned greatly, true, but he was not a monster and did not deserve to be butchered with his family in a dank basement far from home.

Despite the misery of life in pre-revolutionary Russia, the peasants never lost their affection for nor reverence toward the House of Romanov, and the steps taken by the Czar in the last years of his reign did more to improve the lot of the average Russian (especially the Kulak) than anything the filthy Bolsheviks ever did.

The regicide of the Romanovs at the hands of the godless Leninist monsters that destroyed the Christian empire of Russia will echo down the ages as an example of what happens when a nation attempts to kill God and remake the world in the image of Man. May St. Vladmir and St. Andrew pray with Our Lady of Fatima for the people and the crown of Russia!

Not Georgy...even Patriarch said never that spoiled brat. When funeral ceremony start for Tsar, what Georgy do? He go and jump on throne to "feel it out"....Russia need strong leadership not spoiled British style royal.
