REVIEW OF WALL STREET AND THE BOLSHEVIK REVOLUTION1 BY ANTONY C. SUTTON (CLAIRVIEW BOOKS, UK 2011, 232 PAGES) CHRISTIAN RIPPEL One barrier to mature understanding of recent history is the notion that all capitalists are the bitter and unswerving enemies of all Marxists and socialists. This erroneous idea originated with Karl Marx and was undoubtedly useful to his purposes. In fact, the idea is nonsense. There has been a continuing, albeit concealed, alliance between international political capitalists and international revolu- tionary socialists —to their mutual benefit. (Sutton 2011, p .17) The open-minded reader should bear two clues in mind: monopo- ly capitalists are the bitter enemies of laissez-faire entrepreneurs; and, given the weaknesses of socialist central planning, the totali- tarian socialist state is a perfect captive market for monopoly capi- talists, if an alliance can be made with the socialist powerbrokers.

Jewish Socialists Around Vpered1
BORIS SAPIR JEWISH SOCIALISTS AROUND VPERED1 SOCIALIST PROPAGANDA AMONG JEWS AND VPERED The importance of the "Lavrists" or "Vperedovtsy", named after the publication Vpered (Forward) (i873-1877) founded and edited by Peter Lavrovich Lavrov, in the evolution of the socialist ideas and groups in Russia has been recognized by historians from Alphonse Thun to Franco Venturi.2 The journal's role in the dissemination of the socialist credo among Russian Jews has never been seriously disputed, although seldom recorded in concrete terms. Of the leading Lavrists only Nicolas Kuliabko-Koretskii left memoirs.3 But he, as well as Lavrov who compiled an interesting outline of the main phases of the "Narodnichestvo"4 were not exceedingly interested in the Jewish aspect of their oeuvre. They touched this topic only in passing and, if at all, referred to Liberman whose Jewish socialism captivated their imagination. There was no reason for them to indicate and to dwell on the Jewish origin of socialist Jews in their midst who never associated themselves with any Jewish cause or aspirations. The outsiders who did so many years afterwards, knew too little about the internal affairs of Vpered and, therefore, either exaggerated its influence among Jews or underestimated the importance of leading Jewish Lavrists or, which 1 With slight changes this paper was read at the YIVO Research Conference on Jewish participation in movements devoted to the cause of social progress, New York, September 10-13, '964. 1 A.

The Russian Revolution: a Wider Perspective
- THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION: A WIDER PERSPECTIVE PREFACE to the Source Collection on the Russian Revolution This is a collection of sources provided by members of the Euroclio network and curated by three members of the Historiana team. It Insert Source here: is not a comprehensive overview of the Russian Revolution. Its purpose is to provide some insights into how politicians, diplomats, senior military officers, other officials, revolutionaries, eye witnesses, bystanders, newspaper editors and journalists, ordinary people and even children perceived some of the key events in Russia from January 1917 through to December 1922. We hope that this transnational and multiperspective collection will widen students’ understanding of what happened in Russia in those critical years. The sources have been provided by history teachers and historians from 13 countries, including the Russian Federation, neighbouring states that in 1917 were part of the Russian Empire, states that were then allies or enemies of Russia and even states which were neutral non-combatants in 1917. To obtain these sources the contributors turned to their own national digital and physical archives. Where necessary, contributors summarised texts in English.

Lenin, What Is to Be Done.Indd
XIII Editor’s Preface This work saw the light of day in the heat of a decisive battle for the international proletariat. What Is to Be Done? constituted the essential weapon with which to fight revisionism. This, even in its Russian form, denied the scientific nature of Marxist analysis, i.e. it excluded for the proletariat even the possibility of equip- ping itself with a strategy. What Is to Be Done? is the precious magnifying glass that allows us to reread the chapters of the history of our class from a Leninist point of view. In order to do this, we can follow the Russian script. Between 1884 and 1894, Marxist theory gathered strength, but the Marxists, among the currents of avant-garde thought, only had very few disciples. Between 1894 and 1898, the labour movement revealed its political awakening in the struggle via strikes. 1898-1902 was a period of dispersion, of theoretical and organisational eclecticism ; it was the artisanal phase of the political struggle fought by the vanguard of the Russian proletariat. What Is to Be Done? was published as the theoretical guidebook allowing that phase to be left behind. Lenin focused on the Russian precursors of revolutionary Marxism. The latter had the merit of being considered the world vanguard of the revolutionary democratic movement. Lenin hoped that the nascent social-democratic movement would be able to be nurtured with the « same devoted de- termination and vigour ». Eighteen years later, in “Left-Wing” Communism : an Infantile Disorder, he picked up this concept again and underlined it : « For about half a century – approximately from the forties to the nineties of the last century – progressive thought in XIV Lenin – What Is to Be Done Russia, oppressed by a most brutal and reactionary tsarism, sought eagerly for a correct revolutionary theory, and fol- lowed with the utmost diligence and thoroughness each and every “last word” in this sphere in Europe and America. -
Issue 82 – August 2018 Chairman’S Column
THE TIGER Remembering Pierre Vandenbraambussche, Founder of the Last Post Association, Menin Gate, Ypres, 5th July 2018 THE NEWSLETTER OF THE LEICESTERSHIRE & RUTLAND BRANCH OF THE WESTERN FRONT ASSOCIATION ISSUE 82 – AUGUST 2018 CHAIRMAN’S COLUMN Welcome again, Ladies and Gentlemen, to the latest edition of The Tiger. Any readers who enjoyed the tennis displayed in the recent Wimbledon Championships may be interested in the following piece from the archives of The Times, relating to a match played during the Roehampton Tournament of April 1919: Captain Hope Crisp, lost a leg in battle. He is determined to keep up golf and lawn tennis and is playing in the Gentlemen’s Doubles and Mixed Doubles. It was interesting to see how he managed. He is a strong volleyer, and naturally half volleys many balls which a two- legged player would drive. The artificial limb is the right, accordingly service is fairly easy. When there is no hurry, he walks, with very fair speed, approaching a run. At other times he hops. His cheerful temperament makes the game a real pleasure to himself and others. Six years earlier, Crisp had been a Wimbledon Champion, claiming the first ever Mixed Doubles Title with his partner, Agnes Tuckey. This victory was marred by an eye injury to one of their opponents, Ethel Captain Hope Crisp Thomson Larcombe whose subsequent retirement conceded the match to Crisp and Tuckey. In 1914 the defending Champions would reach the semi-final stage before being eliminated. Pre-war, Crisp had been Captain of the Cambridge University tennis team between 1911 and 1913 and at the outbreak of War, joined the Honorable Artillery Company before being commissioned into the 3rd Battalion of the Duke of Wellington’s (West Riding) Regiment. -

ISBN : 0399112626 Foreword IN MARCH, 1917, Lenin was living in Zurich in poverty, the exiled head of a small extremist revolutionary party that had relatively little following even within Russia. Eight months later, he assumed the rule of 160,000,000 people occupying one-sixth of the inhabited surface of the world. The Sealed Train is the story of those thirty-four fantastic weeks. The train itself and the bizarre journey across Germany, then at war with Russia, are a vital and dramatic link in the story. For without the train, Lenin could not have reached St. Petersburg when he did, and if Lenin had not returned to Russia, the history of the world would have been very different. For not one of his comrades had the sense of timing, the strength of will, the mental agility, the subtle understanding of the ever-changing mood of the people and the sheer intellectual power of Lenin. -
Clare Sheridan
CLARE SHERIDAN Clare Sheridan’s papers are held at the Keep at Falmer, and an excellent summary appears at http://www.thekeep.info/clare-sheridan-a-woman-ahead-of-her-time/. The purpose of the material below is to expand on that summary with additional information and illustrations. Clare Sheridan (1885-1970), born Clare Consuelo Frewen at Brede Place, was a remarkable sculptress whose career has led to all kinds of so far unsubstantiated stories of her personal life. The popular press of the twentieth century revelled in such lubricious speculation, as it does today, particularly where the subject was so obviously attractive and well connected. Her father Moreton Frewen (1853-1924), was a financial failure but was personally highly regarded and a friend of literary and political figures; her mother was Clara Jerome, sister of the mother of Winston Churchill, and not short of money. Clare was introduced when young to a large number of such people. She had a conventional education for her class, being sent to France and Germany, but already a rebellious streak was evident. In due course, in 1910 and at least initially against the wishes of her parents, she married a stockbroker, Wilfred Frederick Tempest Sheridan (who preferred at call himself William). In the marriage ceremony she by Emil Fuchs, 1907 declined to ‘obey’ in her vows. The couple had three children, the last of them born only a few days before Wilfred, then a Captain in the Rifle Brigade, was killed in action on 25 September 1915 at the disastrously unproductive battle of Loos on the Western Front. -

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. -

Logos im Dialogos : Auf der Suche nach der Orthodoxie. Berlin: Lit, 209-229. Johannes Lepsius: Theologian, Humanitarian Activist and Historian of Völkermord. An Approach to a German Biography (1858-1926) Hans-Lukas Kieser After having been almost forgotten for decades, the German pastor, author and activist Johannes Lepsius has in the last twenty years become a topic of heated public discussions in Germany and beyond. Among the recent bones of contention is the federally subsidized Lepsiushaus, that is the house of Johannes Lepsius in Potsdam, now transformed to a memorial and research center, and which is Professor Hermann Goltz's lifework. With good reason, Lepsius was and remains highly respected internationally as a humanitarian and a brave witness of truth with regard to the Armenian genocide. His commitment and his variegated life raise important questions. Can his intellectual and social biography offer new insights into a history which has all too clearly remained a site of contestation until the present day? What of his theological background and his transnational networks? What about the role of his patriotic bonds to Wilhelmine Germany? Writing in exile in Basel in 1937, a family friend, the art historian Werner Weisbach, described how the life of Lepsius was an inspiring example of truthfulness, philanthropy and patriotism. -
BRITIT ITÄMERELLÄ Ls00-1700-LUVUILLA
179 ENGLANNIN LAIVASTO SUOMEN RANNIKOLLA JA LÄHIVESILLÄ BRITIT ITÄMERELLÄ lS00-1700-LUVUILLA Yleisesikuntakommodorl Olavi Vitikka Englantilaisten sota-alusten todennäköisesti ensimmäinen esiintyminen pohjoisella Itämerellä tapahtui Ruotsin ja Venäjän välillä vuosina 1570-1595 käydyn 25-vuotisen sodan yhteydessä. Kesällä 1573 pidätti Herman Flemingin johtama ruotsalainen laivasto-osasto piiritetystä Narvasta ulos päässeestä, Lyypekin sota-alusten suojaamasta saattueesta toistakymmentä kauppa-alusta, joukossa englantilaisiakin, ja vei ne sotasaaliina Helsingin ankkuripaikalle. Seuraavana kesänä lähetettiin Elisabet-kuningattaren käskystä. Suomenlahdelle aseistettuja aluksia, jotka vapauttivat ja veivät kotimaahan pidätetyt kauppalaivat. Taistelua ei tässä yhteydessä syntynyt. Brittien asema Itämerellä oli vielä näihin aikoihin sotien vallitessa vaikea, mutta kaupankäynti pohjoisten valtioiden kanssa oli välttämätöntä, koska se oli tärkeää laivaston rakentamiselle. Englanti olikin koko purjelaivakauden 1800-luvulle asti riippuvainen laivanrakennuksessaan Itämeren tuonnista. 1600-luvun lopullajohtavaksi merivallaksi noussut Englanti lähetti Suuren pohjan sodan aikana jokaisena kulkukautena 1715-1721 laivastonsa Itämerelle turvaamaan merenkulun häiriöttömän jatkumisen.

Death of Communism Part 1
0 Death of communism Joy of Satan ministers 26.09.2014 1 Preface There is a war going on 'out there' involving other worlds, extending to different parts of our galaxy. The greys made a deal with the Vatican - wealth and power in exchange for souls. That was one. It all has to do with occult power, along with race as well. In addition to the mass murders and tortures of Gentiles, spiritual knowledge was forcibly removed. This is what Christianity and Islam are all about. Spiritual knowledge and occult power are systematically removed and replaced with meaningless crap. This is analogous to a sense taken from one side in a war, say one of the five senses and the enemy who has all five has an obvious clear advantage. The side with four or less will obviously lose. In our case, this was the sixth sense that was removed along with knowledge pertaining to it. In its place, like I already wrote above- meaningless crap along with lies to replace it. The Inquisition even went as far as to murder the grandchildren and other descendants of so-called 'heretics." This is because the "witchpower" is hereditary. This was a huge victory for the enemy, no different from communism where mass murders are committed to wipe out any memory of the former generations that were a threat. Then, the occult knowledge is kept ion the hands of a few, mainly top Jews [they also have full control of the Vatican and also Islam at key points]. This was all accomplished with the help of the enemy human-hating greys and their reptilian superiors, and carried out by the Jews who are tied in with them.
