Boris Romanov - Rasputin. False myths and unknown true

It would seem that in recent years much has been written about the streams of slander and lies that have hit the Tsar’s family in during the time of Provisional Government (March-November 1917) and then in the Soviet Russia and the USSR. Rivulets of dirty rumors begun in 1916, then it turned into the stormy fetid flows. If before the February revolution, these streams flooded only drunk and hysterical Petrograd, then the Provisional Government consciously and purposely hit them in the whole of Russia.

So, it turns out, this heinous flow of slander and lies of nine months of 1917 – it still generates most people’s notion about Raspuitin!.. For almost 100 years!

Have to tell all this in detail.

Until 1912 Rasputin was accused only of belonging to a banned religious sect «whips» (where practiced group sexual orgies). However, the official inquiries in 1903 and 1912’s have not confirmed these rumors.

First new false rumors (and rough jokes) about Rasputin’s debauchery (and his impact on the Empress) appeared in 1912—1915. They proceeded on the one hand, from the revolutionaries (SRs and the Bolsheviks), and they were designed for ordinary people (and for soldiers). On the other hand, false rumors were created and started from the grand salons of some relatives of the royal family, which were in opposition to Nicholas and Alexandra.

The situation has sharply deteriorated in the autumn of 1916, when the Ministry of the Interior and the Russian counter intelligence discovered a large corruption in organizations «Zemgor» and «Military-Industrial Committee», which were led by prominent opposition leaders of the State Duma, Prince Lvov and Guchkov. Cadet Leader Miliukoff provided to these organizations for strong political support, he was also the leader of the opposition bloc «progressives» in the State Duma.

Then, November 1, 1916 followed by the famous speech Milyukov in the State Duma («What is it – stupidity or treason?»), In which he accused the Empress and Rasputin in a betrayal. According to some modern Russian historians, this Milukoff’s speech marked the transition opposition offensive to forestall future charges in corruption and declare these future charges as «politically motivated.» [28] [29] [30]. Since November 1916 Miliukoff and Gutchkov sharply stepped conspiracy against Nicholas II, which they have successfully implemented at the end of February 1917 (with a few generals who have previously been implicated by them in this conspiracy).
