The '''October Revolution''' (Russian: Октябрьская революция, Oktyabrskaya revolyutsiya), is also known as the '''Bolshevik Revolution'''. The [[coup d'état]] began with an armed [[bolshevist]] insurrection or [[coup d'état]] in [[Saint Petersburg]] traditionally dated October 25, 1917 (Julian calendar; November 7 Gregorian calendar). It was the second phase of the [[Russian Revolution of 1917]], following the [[February Revolution]] earlier that year.

==Background==
[[File:Bolsheviks armed with guns ride in a truck in Vladivostok, Russia, in 1920..jpg|thumb|305px|[[Bolsheviks]] armed with guns ride in a truck in Vladivostok, Russia, in 1920. Led by Vladimir Lenin, the [[left-wing]] [[terrorist]] Bolshevik regime sought to silence its enemies through a state-sanctioned policy of mass killings and detainments known as the "[[Red Terror]]".]]
The '''[[February Revolution]]''' was an almost spontaneous affair brought about by war-weariness, corruption, and starvation. It is said to have come as a surprise to [[Lenin]], who was in [[Zurich]] at the time. Lenin returned to Russia, first crossing Germany in the infamous [[sealed train]] and then across the Baltic; others went by sea.

The '''October revolution''' was the Bolshevik seizure of power, the destruction of democracy and the [[Russian Provisional Government]]. Their armed gangs attacked and occupied all strategic government buildings on October 24 & 25. The new [[Bolshevik]] regime, the [[Russian Civil War]] (1917–1922), the creation of the [[Soviet Union]] in 1922, and the massacre of millions followed.

{{quote|''The Bolshevik Revolution and some of its aftermath represented, from one perspective, Jewish revenge. During the heyday of the Cold War, American Jewish publicists spent a lot of time denying that—as 1930s anti-Semites claimed—Jews played a disproportionately important role in Soviet and world Communism. The truth is until the early 1950s Jews did play such a role, and there is nothing to be ashamed of. In time Jews will learn to take pride in the record of the Jewish Communists in the Soviet Union and elsewhere. It was a species of striking back.''|Jewish Historain Norman Cantor<ref>Norman Cantor, “The Jewish Experience” (1996, p. 364) [https://books.google.com/books?id=f0ss6A58NxAC&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=%22and+some+of+its+aftermath%22 Google Books]</ref>}}

===Tyrkova-Williams===
Ariadna Vladimirovna Tyrkova-Williams (1869–1962) was a Russian-born politician and writer, who organised anti-Bolshevik resistance in Southern Russia. After emigrating to [[Britain]] in 1918, she published ''From Liberty to Brest-
Litovsk: The First Year of the Russian Revolution'', in which she commented:

: ''Besides obvious foreigners, Bolshevism recruited many adherents from among émigrés, who had spent many years abroad. Some of them had never been to Russia before. They especially numbered a great many Jews. They spoke Russian badly. The nation over which they had seized power was a stranger to them, and besides, they behaved as invaders in a conquered country. Throughout the Revolution generally and [[Bolshevism]] in particular the [[Jews]] occupied a very influential position. This phenomenon is both curious and complex. But the fact remains that such was the case in the primarily elected Soviet (the famous trio—Lieber, Dahn, Gotz), and all the more so in the second one. In the Tsarist Government the Jews were excluded from all posts. Schools or Government service were closed to them. In the Soviet Republic all the committees and commissaries were filled with Jews. They often changed their Jewish name for a Russian one—Trotsky-Bronstein, Kamenev-Rozenfeld, Zinoviev-Apfelbaum, Steklov-Nakhamkes, and so on. But such a masquerade deceived no one, while the very pseudonyms of the commissaries only emphasised the international or rather the alien character of Bolshevist rule. This Jewish predominance among Soviet authorities caused the despair of those Russian Jews who, despite the cruel injustice of the Tsarist régime, looked upon Russia as their motherland, who lived the common life of the Russian intelligentsia and refused in common with them all collaboration with the Bolsheviks.''<ref>[https://archive.is/ZbXQ ''"such a masquerade deceived no one"''] at [[Winston Smith Ministry of Truth]]</ref>
