[Elizaveta79]

This was a provocation, everybody knows the truth now.

Important note:

The part where it says: 'Nicholas ordered his troops and the Cossacks to brutally suppress the peaceful demonstrators. A massacre followed.'

should actually read:

'Nicholas' troops and loyal Cossacks were ordered to brutally suppress the peaceful demonstrators. However, they were not ordered by Nicholas himself.'

Happy?!?!? Whether you like it or not, Nicholas was responsible for those troops, therefore, he loses respect and the kind nicknames, even though he did not order it

[ThomasSmithThomas]

Nicholas didnt order the killings, he was away from the Palace and in the confusion his troops fired and charged, there was no order from the Tsar

[Maxwell0396]

@ThomasSmithThomas Read previous comments

[raghureddyias]

watch the movie nocholas and alexandra. awesome movie abt the final years of the czar.

[Maxwell0396]

@raghureddyias I've been looking for that everywhere!!! where can I get it!!!??!?!?!

[WRiimzeee]

thiss iss a reallyy good vid!

[littlenemo1]

You are actually wrong in your condemnation of Nicholas II. He was not even at the Winter Palace at the time of the Protest, and he did not order the brutal attack on the people. Although Nicholas was not a good Tsar - he stated as much himself - and greatly ineffectual, he was not responsible for this massacre.

[Maxwell0396]

@littlenemo1 again, will you please look at other comments, I made a mistake in making it and have said so many times to others.

[Jegor19940125]

@littlenemo1

He was responsible for the Bloody Sunday

[Maxwell0396]

@littlenemo1 Plus they are still the troops responsibility so therefore, he is in part to be criticised.

that was a nice duco .. btw wat was that noise lol .. im havin an exam on it in a week and u help me refresh my mind thanx :D

[BrionyMae]

this is such a horrible massacre. I'm studying russian revolution at the moment. only thing i'd say thats wrong with this is that you said Nicholas II ordered the attack, when actually he wasn't even in that city at the time.

[Maxwell0396]

@BrionyMae

Yeah, read below. Don't know why I put that in there. Definitely wasn't right.

[blahblahjeni19]

you're a life savor, i hope you don't mind I use this for my project too...?

[Maxwell0396]

Yeah go for it!

[killakhalilking]

helped in an english and modern history assignment. thanks man.

[Maxwell0396]

No problems, glad to help

[gerherbel]

I would like to use this video for a project. may I?

[Maxwell0396]

Yeah of course you can, just make sure you point out Nicholas wasn't actually at the palace at the time and he didn't really directly order the cossacks and troops to attack

[Ella14z]

Thank you for this wonderful summary!

[UKMonarchist]

he didn't actually order them to fire so that bit is wrong bit otherwise very good RIP to all those that died on that day

[alooghee]
