Why the British Royal Crown Failed to Save the Romanovs
History.com ^ | 7/17/22 | Barbara Maranzani

That the end of the Russian Empire brought about by Russian Revolution also resulted in the former Emperor’s execution now feels like an inevitability. However, though his monarchy was overthrown, Nicholas and his family were related to many other royal families, thanks to Queen Victoria’s habit of arranging marriages for her offspring across Europe.

In the 15 months from his abdication to his death, royal relations still in power debated if and how they should grant the family asylum, with many of the Romanov descendants believing King George V of England, the czar’s cousin and grandfather of Queen Elizabeth II, could have saved them.

Would this have been a possibility, or were they doomed from the start? Here’s how the events unfolded leading up to their brutal deaths

For the history impaired - they fought on the side of the Limeys, Eyeties and Frogs in World War I and on the side of the Krauts and Eyeties in World War II.

Wokesters be triggered.

Nobody said anything about Jews, you big dummy!

We’re talking about the synagogue of satan from Revelation 2:9.

Italy lost hundreds of thousands of men in battle and felt they didn’t get enough land in return.

Japan got an attitude but lost almost no troops in battle.

Frankly I’ve lost all trust in the establishment’s version of history.

“Caesar Same Etymology as Czar Kaiser & Khazar”

“Japheth’s grandson Togarmah bore a son named Cuzar (according to the Chronicle of Jerahmeel) whose name may have become known for his dictatorial leadership even before the confusion of language at the Tower of Babel, and after the confusion of language his name adopted to mean a dictatorial leader, a czar, kaiser, caesar, the Japhetic language speaking people having spread north and west from Babel.”

God made a covenant with Abraham and blessed his seed through Isaac and Jacob. These are God’s chosen people.

The synagogue of satan are God’s enemies.

Agreed, but I think the elites were bored and didn’t think it would be a big deal.

Watch, and wait patiently. All will be revealed.

Queen Victoria and her progeny were and are a menace.

There are bad alliances in every family. Monarchies are inherently an evil in the end.

A tiff between cousins led to the slaughter of millions and was the precursor that would lead to a six year cataclysm humanity would barely survive.

“Kaiser,” “Czar,” “Caesar” and “Khazar” all date back to Cuzar, or Kozar, who was the great grandson of Japheth, son of Noah.

Kozar means “dictator” and Kozar the man is the ancestor of the Khazars, who answer to the devil and perpetrate the evil in our world.

Where did you get that from ? Most definitely not from the Bible, which makes no mention of anyone named Kozar or Cuzar. There's plenty of evil in the world, but I don't attribute any of it to a medieval Turkic tribe that disappeared in the tenth century.

I think it was Josephus.

Are you saying Josephus is not credible?

Josephus is definitely credible, but I don’t think the name Cuzar/Kozar/Khazar shows up in his works. The rise of the Khazar kingdom would also have been ahead of his time. However, that name does show up as the son of Togarmah, the grandson of Japheth, in documents dating from the Middle Ages and shortly afterwards.

Three steps we can take, using experience and intuition, which help to understand that the established historical record is likely to be significantly falsified:

1. observe and acknowledge that deceptiveness is inherent to human communications, including in the historical record

2. understand the strength of motivation for the elites to falsify the historical record

3. recognize that revelations in our age of the degree and frequency of deception by authorities regarding current events can be extrapolated to illustrate the extent of deception dating back many centuries

Indeed, elites pushing agendas have often tried to falsify the historical record. For example, Jew-haters and anti-Zionists have sought to exploit the dubious hypothesis that modern-day Jews are descended from the medieval Khazars, a conjecture which has largely been discredited by historical and scientific research.

Are you attempting to dispute Revelation 2:9?

Keep in mind, this verse is made in the context of love for God’s people Israel.

Revelation 2:9 exhorts the Christians of Smyrna to hang in there in the face of persecution.

Don’t forget the part that goes:

“And I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.”

If the Khazarians are not the genetic origin of all low IQ in the world, I’m not aware of how such a thing could be true.
