This article is not to teach people a history
lesson, however, history is a history, but it is
very important to be cognizant with the past
history, especially those individuals’ views and
behaviors, whom did shape the World affair, or
changed political spectrum of the empire of the
early 20th century. This narrating, is no indicative
to represent the defense of a repressive role,
corrupt decay Romanov dynasty in Russia. However,
misfortunate ongoing rampant corruption, absolutism,
and study declining of Czar ‘s role and “disastrous
wars with Japan in 1905 and Germany ‘s declaration
of war on August 14, 1914, it was everything that
the Czar could have wished”: These kind of
circumstances pressured Nicholas II to give more
breeding to political Parties, in which both the
Bolshevik Party and Menshevik Party were vying for
such window of opportunities.
Despite all of the upheaval, Lenin was very well
known for his anti Czar‘s regime activities; he was
political exile along with wife leaving in the
Western Europe. He claimed ( Lenin) was follower of
Karl Marx, strongly defending Marxism theory for
peace, justice, equality for all genders; of course
Marx`s manifesto did not recognize any religions, in
accordance with his theory, the faith is just like
“opium” for people ‘s relaxation from injustice
bestowed on them by the Landlords and cruel
governmental apparatus’.
Here are critical points out to be examined more; if
Lenin was a hypocrite.
-While Lenin was living in France: It was alleged
that he was having a mistress Inessa Armand, she was
revolutionary comrade and his wife Nadezhda
Krupskaya was not happy with love triangle
relationships, perhaps that Lenin did not believe
traditional marriage, both were atheism but still
his wife was reluctant and un- happy with a third
person, partnership; if Linen was struggling for
justice, at same time, he was doing un–justice to
his spouse.
-“Lenin was in Switzerland at the time of the
revolution of February 1917”: With help from German
authority for safe passage by train through Germany,
the whole deal is still mystery, between Lenin and
German authority. “When Lenin train pulled into
Petrograd’s Finland Station greeted with the
Petrograd Soviet Workers and Soldiers’ Deputies
headed by its chairman, a Menshevik named Nikolai
Chkheidze.
At this point the Mensheviks were riding high. They
had a majority in the Soviet and a leading role in
the Provisional Government. Despite their ambivalent
feelings about their old political enemy, they felt
obligated to honor a great name in the revolutionary
movement.
Chkheize was conciliatory. The principal task now is
to defend our revolution” he told Linen, and we hope
that you will pursue this goal with us. Lenin
avoided a direct answer. In June, 1917, delegates
from the various city of Soviets met Petrograd for
the first All- Russian Congress of Soviets. When one
speaker urged that the Congress support the
provisional Government because there was no single
party strong enough to assume Power, Lenin
interrupted: There is. Amid derisive laughter - the
Bolsheviks had only 105 out of 822 delegates”.
“All social movements have an ideology, or sets of
beliefs, that justifies the social arrangement that
the movement desires .The ideology of every movement
provides a diagnosis of what is wrong, an
explanation of how the problem came about to correct
the situation.”
Perhaps many of Lenin ‘s schematic vying for power
will probably never be fully disclosed, but
obviously on surface he was avowed, this is a
struggle for justice , peace, equality for all and a
follower of Karl Marx theory of classless society
however slowly and surely the Socialist Camps
including Soviet Union took different direction
became the most class Society in which the Party
Cadres and hierarchy family members became with
especial privileges’ who shop in the special stores
and drove on a designated roads, etc. The
probability most of the third World dictators came
to power “copy past” from Lenin’s behavior. These
dictators also slowly and surely became ruthless to
their people, for example , despotic Mohamed Hussien
Mubarak of Egypt in 1990’s election he proclaimed
that the Egyptian people over 80% voted in his
favor; no one would dear to question to Mr. Mubarak
‘s claim and another example,www.ekurd.net
Libyan dictator Muammar el- Gaddafi did not allow
any official swimming pools, Mr. Gaddafi considered
them a waste of water, no one within circle would
have encouragement to tell dictator that pool water
can be filtered and recycled . History is cruel and
fair it will not forget, nor forgive any misdeed or
any accomplishment for those individuals who shaped
the political spectrum in world affair.
However, the idea that Lenin was so enthusiastic
about, it was one of the phenomenon’s of mid 18th -
century and it became upheaval of early 19th-
century; it clearly failed to reach any tangible
positive outcome for mankind.
