In 
the
book, Utopia In Power, we read that the leaders of the White
Army wrote their "Objectives": "On December 4, 1918, the constitution
of the Volunteer Army was published. It recognized the laws in effect
on Russian territory before October, 25, 1917; that is, it recognized
the February revolution, and it guaranteed freedom of religion, the
press, and assembly and the inviolability of private property. On
November 18, 1918, Admiral Kolchak declared in his first appeal to
the population that his main aim was 'the creation of an effective
army, the defeat of bolshevism, and the establishment of law and
order so that people can freely choose the form of government they
desire and put into effect the great ideas of liberty that are now
being proclaimed throughout the world.'"
When WWI ended in November, 1918, Kolchak and other
anti-Bolsheviks formed their White Army. The allies sided with
Kolchak but they never supported fully and they were ever united and
committed in fighting Lenin. There were many different armies from
different nations at that time. There were tens of thousands of
Japanese soldiers, 7,500 Americans, many Canadians, Italians, French,
British and Czech. Lenin was united and determined and overcame all
of the forces against him because they were weak from their disunity.
Also Lenin was absolutely cruel and effective with propaganda: "This
mixture of utopian promises and ruthless mass terror produced an
explosive compound enabling the Bolshevik party to blast its ways to
victory in the civil war. A crucial factor in this process was the
presence of a leader who knew how much of each component to put into
the mix, depending on the needs of the moment.
Some of the leaders in Russia tried their best to teach
President Wilson, the Congress, and the American people how important
it was to fight Lenin. Books on this event go into detail on all the
communications they made trying to influence public opinion
especially Wilson and the Congress. In the end the American
government and the American people did not do what God wanted them to
do. Even though everyone was war weary America was supposed to rise
to the occasion and fight an even more deadly enemy. America in the
20th century has consistently failed to measure up to its
responsibility as God's champion -- superpower. It just breaks your
heart to read how passionately the few voices for God were.
In the book Intervention At Archangel, the author gives
much of the history of how 
some
of these voices spoke out against the diabolical enemy the Russian
people were facing. This is an example of one of those voices:
"DeWitt Clinton Poole, the American charge d'affaires at Archangel,
who had spent almost a year in Moscow as the senior American
representative there and who was well able (through daily contact
with the Soviet leaders as well as through observation on two
extensive trips in Soviet-help territory) to form his opinion on the
nature of Bolshevism, expressed his indignation at the Prinkipo
proposal and his support of the anti-Bolshevik cause in an eloquent
telegram in which he said in part:"
...
"I have given all there is in me to reveal, and possibly
thereby slightly to abate, the utter wickedness of much the
Bolsheviks have done and are still doing, in the thought that I might
be contributing in some slight way to better the world's affairs.
Knowing as I do, possibly better than any other American, the
complete unmorality of the Bolshevik leaders -- though the
aspirations of a few be sincere -- and the demoralization which their
cynicism and cruelty work upon those whom they lead, I can not in
honesty or self-respect do other than protest against any course of
action which does not take unmistakable account of these facts. . . .
Affairs at Archangel are critical."
Leonid Strakhovsky wrote another book called, American
Opinion About Russia 1917-1920. He writes that America is to
isolationistic. George Washington was wrong when he said that America
should not be so involved internationally. The founding fathers were
not perfect. He goes into detail showing the course of public opinion
towards the Russian Civil War. One of the most outspoken newspapers
who had constant editorials speaking strongly for US intervention to
help Kolchak was the New York Times. For example they wrote
once, "we do assert that there is one single, simple, utterly
uncomplex fact in it. That is the fact that if we let Russia go the
way she is headed, the world is doomed. On the salvation of Russia,
whether she likes it or not, depends the salvation of all of us." The
Times lashed out at Wilson for being wishy-washy and not
giving clear direction to fight. The troops in north Russia were
confused as they fought a bitter war with the Red Army. In the end it
became like Vietnam where parents started visiting Congressman who in
turn denounced our involvement. Eventually Satan was able to get
America out as he had done with the Vietnam War.
The Times for example would say such strong things as,
"Lenin and his colleagues have said that Bolshevism cannot live in
Russia alone, have said it so often that even our Government so hard
of hearing ought to have caught his meaning by this time. To succeed
anywhere Bolshevism must prevail everywhere."
The New York Tribune, "Peace will be unstable while the
cancer of organized Bolshevism remains." All this while America's
young men were going through hell. One book wrote that it had
"bottomless swamps and clouds of mosquitos in the summer. During the
winter months homesickness and melancholia were induced by the short
days and temperatures as low as 53 below zero. The food ration,
consisting primarily of black tea, hardtack, and canned willy (corned
beef), also left much to be desired."
Saturday Evening Post
Article
In the Feb 21, 1920 (four days before Sun Myung Moon was born)
issue of The Saturday Evening Post, a woman wrote an article
about the situation in Archangel. She writes some moving passages
trying to touch America's heart and will to help Admiral Kolchak's
armed forces and the Russian people. Her husband was Russian and went
back to do what he could to help. He got an interview with Kolchak
and his wife in America (who was also a Russian and now living in
America) wrote what her husband had told her about the desperate
situation in Russia.
She writes, "The interview with Kolchak made a great impression
on my husband. He was finishing his coffee, looking out of the
window, and the admiral sat my husband down opposite him. He was
uncommonly nice to one who he felt would be understanding, both of
his traditions, habits and life. He complained of the Allies'
indecision, also of the Bolshevik armies, who were fighting with
extra punch just then."
...
"Kolchak said he had wished to appeal to America; that by his
clamorings he had hoped to bring help in material forms at least --
food, clothes, medicines, ammunition and arms."
"'It will help the Americans themselves, to aid us, for
Bolshevism is the world's enemy, and especially against a democracy
such as the American Government is. The necessity of the civilized
world's hanging together, as against red doctrines, is
obvious.'"
"Kolchak soon had another caller come for orders, and my
husband had time to look about. Kolchak lives in a tiny house, quite
unpretentious in its arrangements, and only the two sentinels at the
door mark it or suggest its rank. The supreme commander had no
visible servants besides his striker, who waited on him without the
least ceremony or formality. Notwhere a sign of luxury."
...
"Personally he gives an impression of enormous strength, as one
meets him or as he sits talking at his desk, leaning forward slightly
in his intensity. The rather large square head, face and shoulders
impress one with his complete reliability. The eyes and hands are
remarkably fine. Impulsive, quick in manner and articulation, he can
be very silent too; and is so while listening mast attentively. He
has great magnetism, all the qualities and defects of a man who is
very big -- honest, loyal, patriotic, with not the least desire to
save himself from trouble, danger or responsibility. Always ready to
die, and asking nothing but to go on fighting Bolsheviki until the
end of either his own life or theirs. It is his one ambition and
policy."
...
"He was so faithful and so patient in the face of far-away
allies, who now and then revived his hopes by a promise flung across
the seas. Always this was followed by long silence and no action
whatever, while Kolchak, between the devil of Bolshevism on the one
hand and the deep sea of rising discouragement and misery about him
on the other, fought intrigues and poverty, famine and propaganda,
reactionary and radical groups; hoping against hope for recognition
and relief from without and for calm about him. Recognition by his
allies would have meant a new strength to fight the contradictory
elements at home; relief would have minimized the sufferings of the
needy refugees and population, stamped out illness and dismal misery,
aiding the general morale, giving him arguments to quiet all the
complaints."
"But nothing came -- save smooth words from missions sent to
investigate."
...
A British officer at Archangel wrote the following to the
author saying, "... disease is rife and their are no medicines. The
great heart-rendering cry is, Oh, for some warm clothing! For
soldiers -- warm underclothes and shirts and socks. For women --
outer garments, underclothes, if fact, everything; children's too,
anything to warm their freezing bodies. Thousands of lives depend on
these things, so please do what you can for the sake of humanity. No
other form of propaganda can do so much for the prestige of
civilization as this. Wool, flannel -- any materials sent can be made
up in our workroom. We will have the women make up garments, sewing
or knitting. It would do your heart good to see how grateful these
Russians can be, and are, for what has been done. Russia moans and
cries out to the world. She is a living body, and her tortures cannot
be looked upon in cold blood as extraordinary. Never before has the
world witnessed such an experience in social evolution. Russia is
living, and every pore in her body is shedding blood."
Sadly, hundreds of young American men died an agonizing death.
In late 1919, Wilson pulled them out against the pleadings of all the
generals there. Kolchak was captured by the Red Army. He was taken to
the river Ushakovka on February 7, 1920 to be executed. He kept his
dignity. They shot him and pushed through a hole in the ice to
disappear forever.
On February 21, 1920 at 1:00 pm the 154th Red Infantry Regiment
entered Archangel. Lenin had won. Satan had won. Three days later Sun
Myung Moon was born -- the greatest anti-communist in the 20th
century.
