some things here:

      • Ruination of the Russian Empire wasn't predetermined.

      • The revolution wasn't inevitable.

      • The operation of the British intelligence for the destruction of their opponent, Russia, wasn't a perfectly designed ingenious plan.

      A great number of invisible facts, details, and contingencies had to match each other as in a puzzle. They had to coincide for our REVOLUTION to happen. In such a large-scale project many facts developed favorably for those wishing to destroy Russia and unfavorably for its people and government, Yet, don't get depressed. Every spectacular success of the Anglo-Saxons is always followed by a failure as spectacular. Russia, which seemed destroyed in 1917–1924, managed to retrieve it power. When with a sore heart we think of the year 1917, so fatal for our country, let's remember that in 1945 our tanks entered Berlin.

      The main culprits behind the tragic events in Russia were Great Britain and the USA, and to a smaller extent, France. These were the countries that allied the Russian Army to fight their common enemy. An enemy can't be blamed for inciting chaos in the opponent's country to try and win the war. An enemy is an enemy, and any claims in that regard are ridiculous and absurd. However, there is no forgiveness for pseudo-friends that hug you with one hand and stab you with the other.

      The next person guilty is the Russian Emperor. His particular government "genius" allowed the Russian enemies to implement their plans. It was he who had given key jobs to the people that betrayed him. It was he who made his immediate surrounding permanently allergic to himself. It was he who let his country be dragged into the World War and who sacrificed hundreds of thousands of Russian soldiers' lives for mythical "allied" ideals. It was he who abdicated all of a sudden, unexpectedly for both his army and his country turning the unrest of the workers and the revolt of the Petersburg garrison into the February Revolution. However, Nicholas II paid an ultimate price for his mistakes – he paid with the lives of his innocent children. Only God can judge him…

      Other culprits behind the country's destruction should be named, too. Or, let's say, one culprit. This is not an organization or person, this is a social stratum. This is the Russian social elite. The revolution and everything that followed it was accurately orchestrated and supported by the intelligence services of the "allies." They were the main culprits behind what happened, but we need to understand that it was the treacherous behavior of the Russian elite that helped the "allies" to turn their ominous plans into reality. Today, when top leaders of our country call for unity, for rallying of the elite, we have to understand that it was the absence of such consolidation that had brought the Russian Empire to ruination. As the proverb goes, the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. It was the attempt to make the country more prosperous and to improve the Russian realities that lead to millions of victims and destruction of the country.

      The policy of Nicholas II was leading monarchy to its end – this was what the other members of the ruling dynasty thought. The Tsar was steering the country to a catastrophe, leaders of most Duma parties believed. Mediocre war running ended in outrageous losses and defeats, this was what the Russian top military leaders said. Everyone saw the only way out – Nicholas Romanov had to be dismissed. No one expected that their attempts to save the country would trigger its ruination. If all these groups hadn't started "to save" the Russian Empire, it might have withstood the test of time till today!

      The interior plot against the Russian monarchy started long before. Those looking for changes construed the war as a favorable opportunity they were afraid to lose. If Russia had won the war, it would have only reinforced the accursed autocracy, so they needed to seize power right at that moment and to bring this war "to a victorious end together with the allies." This was the stance of the main Duma parties, the KDs and the Octobrists, members of the so-called "Progressive Block." The plot was led by the leaders of these parties, Pavel Milyukov and Alexander Guchkov, as well as the Chairman of the State Duma Mikhail Rodzianko. High-ranking military officials also took their part in the plot – Generals Mikhail Alexeyev, Vasily Gurko, and Nikolay Ruzsky.

      In 1915, the SR Alexander Kerensky decides to take some care of his health, sapped in the Duma battles. Later he became the most famous member of the Provisional Government. The future "Father of Russian Democracy" goes to a holiday resort in Finland. Let's pledge him the honor, "Soon after my return, I attended a secret meeting of the Progressive Block's leaders where it was decided to overthrow the Tsar by a palace revolution and to replace him with his 12-year-old heir Alexei, appointing Grand Prince Michael Alexandrovich of Russia as his regent."[45] The military men had their part in the coup d'état. I mean the high general officers that were dissatisfied with the Tsar's personality and his attitude in the World War. Many members of the Romanov family also craved for Nicholas to abdicate as they hoped to get better positions with the new monarch. Some members of the ruling dynasty and fans of the Republican regime didn't understand how abnormal their ideas were for those of royal descent. Just like some vegetarian lions, they dreamt of the times when everyone would be vegetarian and missed the fact that in that case they would inevitably starve themselves to death.

      Freedom fighters in their white gloves during a dreadful war conspired to depose the leader of the state. Naturally, they believed there would be no blood. Imagine if the City Committee of Moscow decided to dismiss Stalin "without violence" in December 1941. None of the plotters expected that with the war going on, the country, exhausted by overwhelming efforts, might fail to stand the race for power. And it never occurred to them that they might be unable to retain that long-awaited power. Most of the Romanovs who simple-heartedly had taken delight of the February overthrow were killed by Bolsheviks, and the rest had a narrow escape from the country in turmoil.

      The Russian elite perceived the fever for changes in the ruling circles, and it became the basis for the country destruction plan of the "allies." "Soft" monarchists like Rodzianko, Milyukov, and Guchkov hoped there would be a constitutional monarchy led by Tsarevich Alexei or Grand Prince Michael Alexandrovich, the brother to Nicholas II. The political Lefts, who used Kerensky as a megaphone, wanted a republic. The military men wanted to have a steady hand and to stop treachery from the pro-German party in the Tsar's circle. No one was confused about the absence of real evidence for that treachery – as the Tsarina was German, she was considered to be the culprit behind our defeats. And it was she and Rasputin who were supposed to seek a separate peace agreement with Germany. These were the rumors spread in high society salons, blight barracks, and the Duma corridors.

      To turn their plans into reality the plotters initially planned to arrest the Tsar and the Tsarina and make him abdicate in writing. This was the main scenario, approved by the Duma and military plotters. As the "allies" had a bigger plan, their intelligence services decided to correct the plot scenario to make it more natural, to provide a motive and to make the revolt look like popular discontent, not a plot.

      Indeed, at that time many people knew about the plot against Nicholas. It was definitely known in London and in Paris. General Mikhail Bonch-Bruevich knew many plotters in person, "The idea that sacrificing the Tsar might save the dynasty called into existence a lot of plotting groups and societies that were considering a palace revolt… Paleologue and George Buchanan, the French and the British ambassadors, were also aware of it."[46]

      In May 1916, Europe was attended by the Russian parliamentary delegation led by Milyukov. "Allied" governments had a liking for this "parliamentary social" group. The Russian intelligence reported that during informal meetings of the parliamentarians they often discussed matters that normally lead to execution in wartime. Nicholas II was receiving more and more reports about that, and he was also aware that the Duma opposition members were supported by Britain and France. Anna Vyrubova, the Empress's maid, wrote, "The Tsar told me that he knows from reliable sources that the British Ambassador Sir Buchanan is actively engaged into intrigues against Their Majesties and that he is as near as holding meetings with grand princes in that regard."[47]

      Such evidence is in plenty. Major General of the Cortege, Palace Superintendent Voeykov recalled his impressions from meeting the British and the French Ambassadors during the New Year's levee in 1917 in Tsarskoye Selo.
