Stop the presses! According to the Supreme Court of Russia, Czar Nicholas II and his family were executed for political reasons when the Bolsheviks dragged them into a basement and shot by firing squad in 1918. Until now, this was considered a murder that had no political motivation. Bolsheviks killing the Czar as they took over power in a bloody coup…nope. No political motivation there.
The Romanovs have already been declared saints by the Russian Orthodox Church. In all the fervor, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin accepted the titles of saint, and Czar of Russia.
While the Russians are going crazy for their Czars, the Georgians are ironically excited about Stalin. Remember Stalin, the brutal tyrant who killed literally tens of millions of his own people, not to mention the terror he inflicted on others outside his country? Yeah, he was Georgian so, how can you not love him?
