  • They directly murdered them .. they didnt even gave Nicholas II a trial... all on the basement of Ipatiev house on the night of July 17 , 1918 .. All of the companies (even the maids and a dog..) were not sparred and all well brutally murdered! :( ..

  • Царь Николай является великимъ человекомъ въ исторіи.

  • My grandma escaped. They new it was going on.

  • What I found strange is that I was reading the thinie on the bottom, and they included the news in regards to Pakistani Cricket, just how big is Cricket in Russia anyhow???

  • So...it was Lenin who gave the order?

    I understand I never loved to study any references to him.

  • It's completely irrelevent what Tsar Nicholas may have been guilty of or not. His family were guilty of nothing but being related to him yet were murdered in an innexcusable totally unjustified anti-Christian hate crime by Marxist religious bigots who created a tyrannical Frankenstein monster regime responsible murdering tens of millions of human beings in Russia and around the world to steal their property and have left a dying Russia with negative population growth

  • @Texasjim2007

    Let me tell you, Sir; since chldhood I believe on the restauration of Monarchy in Russia. May not the Romanov....but some parallel branch.

    looking at the impending events...I not see any other solution for Orthodox identity...may a good example for western European agnostiques dinasties.

  • Sound is not so good.

  • Nicholas II was a racist and an anti-semite. Consider the words of Count Witte: "To the Japanese His Majesty was in the habit of referring as macacoes (monkeys), using this term even in official documents. The English he called Jews. 'An Englishman,' he liked to repeat, 'is a zhid (Jew).' "

    Shocking that a head of state could display so much racism and anti-semitism. A disgrace that such a low life occupied the throne once occupied by the great Peter - I. 

  • @1mrnewman hey,Imbesil,they did not live in a Specie intergrated society that you do,The Japs are a different Specie and they are evil They have started a lot of Bloody Wars and a lot of Pornographic stuff.

  • It is very anti-Christian, racist and hypocritical that all the prisoners and executioners were JEWS of the Romanov family! While the jews complain about your poor 5 million dying in WW2, your communist Jews killed more than 50 million christians only in Russia and more around other parts of europe.

  • @andjelicd70 :O( , yes but as we see, COUSINS REMAIN !

  • @andjelicd70 only jews were bolsheviks??? there were georgians,latvians,finns,mongo­ls and god knows what in the rank of the CHEKA and later NKVD. Bolshevik society was feeding on feelings of hate and revenge by societies scum...like Stalin,Jezov,Lenin and other pure criminals.

  • please let us be friends with the Romanovs

  • can anyone explain to me, what is rehabilitation?

  • Typical Russia today, only half truths if that. They weren’t shot dead, they were bayonetted to death and made to watch each other’s executions, then they tried to burn and destroy the bodies with chemicals so no one would find out what happened.

  • @heatflash888 what the hell kind of American lies did you read in school. That is nowhere near what happened. Typical American jumping to conclusions with little to no facts.

  • @MarshalGeorgiZhukov no, it is true. im Russian and i confirm this/ тебе самому бы историю поучить не мешало

  • It was a murder, plain and simple. 

  • At least the russian judicial system couldn't get this wrong as the world is them as there are Romanov's whom were or still living in Spain also Prince Michael of kent whom is too a direct descendant of the Romanov family too so the russian judicial system couldn't mask anything at all and I must applaud them for doing the investigation's with the dignity and respect this family deserved. Also I think they would be proud of their gov I think.

  • no volume =(

  • @Amandandoug I have just listen to this video and it was fine for me maybe u need to update your windows program maybe? When u sort what problem u have on your computer this video makes interesting listening

  • My uncle was with Admiral Kolchak during the Bolshevik Revolution. They were to liberate the Tsar, but they arrived three days late and found no bodies. About twenty years later, my uncle was arrested by the Gestappo with 40 other white army officers. He was arrested for giving a speech denouncing both Hitler and Stalin and sent to Sachsenhausen. It was at Sachsenhausen where Yakov Stalin threw himself against the electric fence after his father said: We have no prisoners of war, only traitors.

  • IT WAS MURDER

  • In the 1920's, many Russians came to U.S. to avoid religious persecution in their homeland. One group founded Holy Trinity Monastery in Jordanville, New York. I visited years ago, and remember walking into the dining hall and seeing two large paintings of Nicholas and Alexandra on the wall. It was if time had stood still. The monks intended, in the 1920's, to "wait out" the revolution, then return to Russia. They thought the monarchy would be restored. Perhaps it will, as a constitutional one.

  • Hot for no even one word

  • Viva el Sar ! Larga vida a los Romanov.

  • The Imperial Romanov family should not only be rehabilitated but also declared saint by the Pope himself. Then the successors must be restored to the throne of the Imperial Russia. Long live the Tzar!

  • @anaclet That won't happen, I think Putin would want to be Czar.

  • @anaclet Why should the Roman Catholic Pope declare the Romanovs to be saints? They were Orthodox Christians, and the Russian Orthodox Church has already recognized their sainthood.

  • @lichtbroeder Well one more reason! Then the Romanovs would be saints twice, just reaffirming their sainthood. There only one Church and only one God. Long live the Tsar! Lang lebe der Kaiser!

  • We should do the same with the International Banksters -and political elitists - the real enemies of all peoples around the world.

    Fight for Freedom!

  • British industrial revolution formed capitalism which divided capitalists and workers. Marx and Engels thought of communism. Tsar was responsible for causing the rise of communist revolution because of long lasting serfdom.

  • Please note that Czar Alexandr II freed the serfs BEFORE Abe Lincoln freed the American slaves. Yes, all Monarchs were and are political bullies, along with most modern politicians, progress was continuous throughout the 19th century toward positive reforms in Imperial Russia. The Rothchild banking Mafia unleashed Ulyanov to exact revenge on the Imperial family, then Lenin turned the tables on Rothschild. Rothschild & Cie are enemies to all Freedom Loving people around the world!

  • lenin was a terrorist in the fullest sense, allowing the killing of children and setting up the secret police. he was no better than an islamic jihadist.

    trotsky was truer to international marxism, insisting that people be allowed to choose for themseves. had he instead of stalin ended up as leader, the soviet union might have avoided alienating the world while modernizing itself humanely.

  • oh..Tsar..VICTIM OF POLITICAL SHIT-SSION ?

  • The "international bankers", in particular ,the Rothschild family ,funded the bolshevik revolution ,it was a generations old vendetta between the Romanovs and the bankers , the royal family was killed ,both for control of the country and an act of revenge for Alexander the 1st ,blocking the World government attempt of the congress of Vienna 1815, and Alexander the 2cd ,siding with Abe Lincoln in 1864 : check "Rothschild Fever" Vid

  • whatever about Nicholas, his wife and children did not deserve to be killed for what he may have done. Women were very suppressed in the early 1900's and a child only knows what they are taught to believe.

  • Over 60 million were murdered by the Communists in Russia. Get to the back of the line.

  • @Ggirl91 - Well the tsar's wife was not oppressed. She had influence over her husband and she supported the worst sort of tyranny. She got what she deserved, I'm very sorry to say.

  • @TreblePop The Tsarina got what she deserved? Easy to say so in hindsight. Alexandra was a good wife and mother and she loved Russia. She like many believed that the Tsar ruled for the good of the people by God's will alone, and she no more supported tyranny than did Queen Victoria or any other monarch of the time. The Tsar was not a bad man. He WAS an inept ruler, and never really wanted the job. To understand him in part, look at what happened to his liberal and open minded grandfather.

  • Too bad well you raped the common people everyday & now you want compensation it should be give or take ten generations of manual labor. Sound fair.

  • so are the remaining familly members really rich or?? one would think they would recieve the riches or any other valuables. any help me out??

  • Perhaps by British and American inaction, but America was not directly involved.

  • from America was just USA involved.

  • America is the United States. If you mean the continent, that would be North America.

  • no.. sorry, but it is wrong,.. America is not USA,,.. maybe that´s the confusion in the post.. USA is in America.. or exactly in North America as you said, .. but if you write that America was invlolved, you are including many countries (north, mitle and south America) and if you say North america you could be meaning Canada, USA or Mexico.. and i do not think that Canada or mexico were involver.. ;))

  • America refers to the United States, and it always has - you are wrong. If you want to refer to North America, you say North America. If you want to refer to South America, you say South America. If you want to refer to both you say the Americas. America is commonly used to refer to the United States and no other country, the end.

  • The only ones who 'commonly' use 'America' to refer to the US are you arrogant, self-centered 'Americans' and English speakers. For us, America stands for the full continent and the United States are just one of its sovereign countries.

  • Well, no one gives a shit about Costa Rica.

  • Actually you do, or you would have ignored my post. This kind of answers only shows how egolatric and self-centered you are. And then you ask why some things happen...

  • BTW, my grandfather was what you'd call 'American'...

  • Some things? Being egocentric doesn't really deserve the 'some things' we've asked why about. Also, we are the hegemon, so technically we are number one. We have 25% of the worlds production, over 50% of its military expenditures, and one of the most stable political systems that exist. We are America, if you deny America in modern society equates to the United States, it simply makes you ignorant. These are facts.

  • @muthafakataka2 It is true that "America" once referred to the entire "new world", but "America" and "United States" have been synonymous for almost two centuries, and even Europeans (including non-English speaking) have long used these terms in this way. Easy for you to call Americans arrogant and self centered, yet I'll wager that the U.S. has given the world a lot more than your country has. Your online name says a lot about you. Have a big chip on your shoulder?

  • @lichtbroeder Certainly not yours. America & US "have been synonymous" since the US historians wrote the books (at a time when the US and Haiti were the only independent part of America - although the US didn't recognize Haiti out of racism). I'm not discussing what the US has "given to" (or taken from) the world; but you despising our country (or any other country not named US) just shows how right we are.

  • @muthafakataka2 Sorry, but it is you who are doing the despising. You speak of U.S. racism? Your country of Costa Rica greatly mistreated native people in the past. You accuse the U.S. of co-opting the name "America" for itself? Between 1823 and 1839, your country was part of "The Federal Republic of Central AMERICA", a name chosen by Spain. You speak of bad parts to our history? We, unlike you, have not had juntas and dictators. Before finger pointing and blaming, clean your own house.

  • @lichtbroeder Wow, a history lesson...! Once as an independent nation, Costa Rica did never recognize slavery (now tell me when did the US finally got rid of it). Mistreatment of the native people was performed by Spanish and British troops, although the US continued it blatantly (remember Little Big Horn?)... Many civil rights were granted in Costa Rica long before the US. Of course there was the ocassional dictator (one in the last 120 years), but now tell me what Nixon and Bush Jr. were...

  • @lichtbroeder Wow, a history lesson! OK, once Costa Rica was an independent nation, it did NEVER have slavery (now tell me what happened 40 years later in the US). Mistreatment of the natives, conducted by Spanish and British troops alike, was blatantly continued in the US (Little Big Horn, anyone?). And yes, there was the occassional dictator (one in the last 120 years - don't misrepresent events), but now tell me what were Nixon and the 'democraticly elected' Bush Jr.

  • @muthafakataka2 Yes, a history lesson, which you've given several of already., so get off your pompous, high horse. America historically has had low points as well as high points, but NO country (including yours) is exempt from this. That was my point. You have a chip on your shoulder and enjoy bashing the United States. Go for it. Be the poor, despised "victim". Tell us your tales of woe and enumerate our "sins". It won't make you - or Costa Rica - any the better for it.

  • @lichtbroeder Completely left without arguments. I'm not arguing about the perfection of any nation (but rather at the ones who thinks of themselves as the ONLY worthy nation at all, and actually find pride in their lowest moments). I'm actually sympathetic for the US due to family reasons, but hate this self-centered attitude of brats like you, who act like there's nothing to be appreciated south of Texas.

  • Comment removed

  • @muthafakataka2 You certainly have an inferiority complex. Anyone reading my comments to you will not find one instance of me looking down on your country or any country. My parents came from Germany and Netherlands. They struggled to build a life, and I empathize with all people who do. You berate all Americans (me included) by using a reverse logic that employs the very same demeaning tactics that you say "we" use against any country "south of Texas". I respect Costa Rica. You, I do not.

  • @lichtbroeder Thanks for finally showing any sort of respect for Costa Rica. But I still wonder where did you get your Psychology PH.

    BTW, my grandpa came from the US to Costa Rica, and his grandpas came from both Germany and the Netherlands, too. So I have no reason to "berate" all US citizens, as you could have told if you ever finished reading my comments. I just can't call US citizens "Americans" like if I wasn't a Central "American" or a Latin "American". That said, LONG LIVE AMERICA!

  • @lichtbroeder PD I care absolutely nothing about having or not your respect. Not having it will do me no wrong, and having it will not make me any better. But believe it or not, I got your points. I hope you are capable enough of getting mine without being blinded.

  • I will give you an example of why I think you're confused.

    If you say, for example:

    America launched an invasion of France along with Canada, Britain, and the Commonwealth forces- this is referring to the United States.

    If you say, for example:

    The Americas are currently engaged in the largest war on drugs in history - this is referring to both continents since it is plural.

    I understand it can be confusing, but trust me, I know what I'm talking about as an International Affairs major.

  • mm.. i do not think so.. maybe it is a little bit different to lear geography in USA,.. but America is a continent.. and it is wire to read America if you mean USA.. that´s different.. as a dip. ing. know it ;)) just cultural differences !

  • There is no continent called America. There is North America and South America, or together they are 'the Americas'. America refers to the United States. Seriously, even your own Chancellor has referred to us as America. Every major figure has at least called the United States 'America' once in their career. I'm right, you're ignorant, shut up.

  • oh my God,.. you should correct the books .. they are wrong !!  LOL !

  • Could you please cite a modern book that refers to either continent as simply America.

    Thanks.

  • The Russian Imperial Family were brutally murdered by the bolsheviks it was in no way justified.

  • I hope the Russian Empire is restored. Then they can put the Soviet Era behind and go back to the best form of Government there is. Monarchy!

  • England Crown refused to help to Romanovs but so quickly bought some of the jewels, easter eggs, tiaras...=(

  • democracy is a bitch...

    LONG LIVE THE NEW BYZANTINE EMPIRE SLAVIA

  • The Tsar and his family were killed by

    Lenin in revenge for his brother being hung. He murdered people and was hung for it. The children of NIcholas were killed because their name was Romanoff. How can you just kill children who were innocent of anything?

  • good,, but let not forget that king of England refused to give hospitality the his Cousin and to the Romanov family....

    tha history was not so clear,, Englan and France didn't help to save the Russian Empire. anyway the truth will come out... I hope

  • They did and so did the United States and several other countries, it was too late, unfortunately.

  • If we weren't at war we would have most certaintly taken them in

  • What the heck? Communism or No communism What's wrong here is plain and simple. Violence and Hatred in either side will only result in endless wars and confrontations. Try Loving each other you've got nothing to lose.

  • btho5531 -- Regime murdered them , WHY ? .. cause they were the ones who planed assasination oc Czar ,,,

  • The Romanovs were victims of 'political repression'! Talk about short memory. They seem to forget the thousands that the Imperial Regime murdered.

  • случилось что Bullshit!!!!

  • TSAR deserved death!!!

  • Amen!! Alexander II's violent death is perhaps the most important, most overlooked death in modern history - had he not died so soon, he would have given Russia a constitution, and the history of planet earth in 20th century would have been VERY different - communism would likely never have come to be.

  • Long live Lenin, Sverdlov, Trotsky & Dzjerzhinsky !

    My utmost respect for the leaders of the Russian Revolutions (and French, too).

    Nepal the way to go.

  • IT WAS MURDER! NOT EXICUTION!! and if you would just please look this family up you'll know the truth... i know them better than anyone else in the world for personal reasons so this is the truth.

    i was going through some things... and found something of maria she wrote about innocence and how her and Anya knew what was coming and that all as there father has done was being notified WAY to late before he could do anything!... before you comment back to me i heartly ask don't

  • You know nothing of history, their was a full vrdict and trail carried out, and that was to be their fate, although you do have one thing right they were executed because of democracy, although thats ntheir own fault because they had already had two revolutions before hand and the russian familie had still not changed their ways. Oh except they had introduced a fake goverment the dumark which was still controlled by the tsars. Bitch

  • First, the word is trial not trail. Second, where did the trial take place, who was the defense attorney for the Czar, what evidence was presented against the Czar? Also, why were the children murdered?

  • Agin I have to say this, not all the children died. Scientists are still looking into what happened to anastasia and ay that she was not executed. They believe she was out for a stroll and saw her family getting taken away, and ran for help, when she got back her house was empty. They are looking into if the executors found anastasia or if she excaped.

  • Everybody died, the bodies of maria and alexei were found last year.

  • Yes, and the bodie of Anastasia were found in 1991.

  • YES THEY DID!!

    The DNA results came in

  • OF COURSE HE WAS A CRIMINAL, that doesn´t mean that their children were guilties

  • Nicholas 2 was the "Criminal" if anyone was. Not the children. Little Alexi died last and he was killed in a horriable way. The reds ccould have exiled them. The reds hurt not just the Russian People but the world.

  • The Romanovs were shit! Tsarism is dead; get over it! Socialism and democracy are the future. Long live Lenin and Trotsky!

  • Lenin and Trotsky were very bad. Killing children just to take power is really loose, I don't understand how you can respect them.

  • @Yuletidy did you know that Lenin's reign was just as bloody? he and Stalin weren't little angels, and Russia suffered way too much, and still suffers.

  • @Yuletidy What an imbecile.

  • fuck Tsar's family and fuck this channel!!!

  • well then put a Tsar or Tsarina in power because thats whats going on his Russia unless u think ppl dying in moscow and the murderers getting away with it is ok and old ppl can't afford to buy the pills they need to stay alive and ppl living very poor and begging for money

  • Few revolutions are bloodless. It is tragic what happened but we all have to accept that it did. I doubt if the Romanov dynasty will ever to be invited back to be heads of state in Russia. It is too long ago and do the majority really want it?

  • No one should die they way they did. How they treated the family was utterly heartless. They posed no threat to any revolution. They abdicated the throne and gave in. There's nothing Nicholas could've done. All he wanted was to live out his days in peace with his family. Of course the children were innocent! They completely destroyed their lives. It makes me sick to even think about these bastards.

  • It was nessesary. The revolution could not continue with a figure head that white forces could gather around. They were not innocent, and they were enemies of the people. Get over it.

  • well said

  • excuse me?

  • oh yea and like most of are innocent

  • blame the person who was incharge on Bloody Sunday in St.Petersburg the year was like 1905or something and their weren't cell phones or even good phones then so how could the Tsar know he knew when he got back but blame the person who was incharge on Bloody sunday

  • Imho, the moscow's stance on this is correct. All though I think that Tsar and his family were an ideological symbol that was in need of termination, I also agree that it was a plain and simple murder.

  • You can't be serious. Did you really just compare the murder of a family of autocratic tyrants with the industrialized slaughter of six million innocent jews? Are you really defending the same Nicholas II that was responsible for the murder of over a thousand unarmed protesters in St. Petersburg during Bloody Sunday? If so, your moral priorities are severely out of whack.

    (continued below)

  • The Bolsheviks had valid reasons to eliminate the Romanovs. The Czechoslovak Legions, working under the orders of imperial France, were fast approaching the city of Yekaterinburg, and there was ample reason to believe that they might try to free the Romanovs and reinstall them in power.

    (continued below)

  • The tsarist system was a cancer afflicting the poor Russian people. Do you have any idea how brutal and savage the Romanovs were? Do you have any sympathy for the hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of Russians who were forced to bleed and die on the battlefields in an inter-imperialist war that had no popular support and was prosecuted in the interests of the aristocracy?

    (continued below)

  • I bet you're the type of reactionary who would also approve of "rehabilitating" abominable figures like King George III, Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI. You'll bend over backwards to excuse the crimes of the wealthy and royal.

    (continued below)

  • Revolutions are violent and excessive, as they need to be in order to succeed. No revolution where one class overthrows another (i.e. a social revolution rather than a merely political one) has been conducted without massive bloodshed. Not the American Revolution, not the French Revolution, and not the Bolshevik Revolution.

    (continued below)

  • Admitting their excessiveness, however, is not an argument against revolutions. It is, rather, an argument against the reactionary and anti-progressive classes who try to prevent the fundamental changes that are needed for society to move forward.

  • All that you have stated here convicts the criminal Bolshevics for the murder of the Romanov family, lest they be restored to the Throne. But regarding the revolutions you cited, all except the American revolution purposed to overhrow and replace the existing order, the American Revolution's purpose was to preserve the system they had worked hard to create.

  • @tubamirum007 Americans didn't work hard to preserve "the system" that they had created. They sought to create a new one. The old one was built with as much British blood and sweat as American. During the French and Indian Wars, colonists were only too happy to have the King's soldiers protecting them, and believed in the Divine right of kings to rule. And initially, most colonists did NOT support revolution. America had a king!

  • @lichtbroeder "What we meant in going for those Redcoats was this: We always governed ourselves and we always meant to. They didn't mean we should."

    Levi Preston, veteran of April 19, 1775 at Lexington

    "The people of the colonies are descendants of Englishmen. The people are Protestants, a persuasion not only favourable to liberty, but built upon it. Seek peace and ensue it; Leave the Americans as they anciently stood."

    -- Edmund Burke, Address to the English House of Commons, April 19, 1774

  • Any body remember Joseph Stalin??

  • it's not like he ordered it he sent the troops but not to cool blame the person who was the commanding officer at petersburg

  • Their deaths were no great loss for the world. Don't cry for them.

    In the spirit of Sverdlov-

    Long live Marxism!

  • I can say what I like, thank you very much. If you think the Tsarist system is so great, go ahead and make your case.
