Mr. Carlson writes excellent articles for the Deseret News. The British, in the early 20th century, did not have a monopoly on propaganda and lies. The Bolsheviks claimed the “Russian Revolution” of February, 1917 as their own. Lenin had not yet been provided transportation back to Russia, across German occupied Europe, by the German government . Lenin, Trotsky and their Bolsheviks stole the Russian Revolution in October, 1917. Their slogan was “bread, peace and land”. The October Revolution was really a “coup d'etat” or a counterrevolution..

Here are the supporting facts from Mr. Carlson's article.

“...the Russian Revolution broke out that February, and Russia appeared as though it would become a republic. (The Bolsheviks under Vladimir Lenin would not come to power until October of that year.)
