Unraveling the riddle of the Romanovs
|
Unveiling an Eighty-Year Old State Secret... After McNeal's five-year trek across seven countries, she reveals: The construction of a safehouse built in the remote area of the port city of Murmansk. The structure was funded through the British Admiralty using the Canadian Hudson's Bay Company as a front. Many of the same individuals involved in the rescue attempts were also linked to a British banking scheme that was set up by the Allies ostensibly to fund the White Russian forces in Southern Russia who were attempting to overthrow the Bolsheviks. But the money was in fact part of a two-track policy - one to overthrow the Bolsheviks and the other to rescue the Family and attempt, at the appropreiate time, to assist in a restoration. One of the most fascinating figures that appears in the documentation is Sidney Reilly, also known as the "Ace of Spies."
Evidence exists that the American government was taking a poll regarding the restoration of a monarchy in December 1918, months after the purported deaths of the members of the Family. The motivations of the Allies to save the Tsar and his Family were multi-faceted. King George V sincerely wanted to save his cousins and their family. The Japanese Emperor had a debt of face to be paid since the Tsarevitch had been struck by a would-be assassin while on a trip to Japan in 1891. The English, the Americans, the Japanese and the French were carrying huge assets in their receivables columns that were owed to them by the Tsarist and Provisional Governments. After Lenin repudiated these debts in December 1917, the Allies quickly developed a strategy to rescue Nicholas and overthrow the Bolsheviks. If they were not successful all the assets would turn into liabilities.
Most interestingly McNeal's research categorically overturns the view that King George V and his close allies did nothing to save the Imperial Family. She reveals documentation that clearly demonstrates that President Woodrow Wilson, the Japanese Emperor and the French Government were all implicated in rescue attempts and were pouring money and their best secret agents into Russia in an attempt to topple the Bolsheviks and re-establish the monarchy.
