Russia re-examines tsar family murder http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/russia-re-examines-tsar-family-murder/ar-AAeGxaJ?li=AAa0dzB&ocid=mailsignout Russian investigators have reopened a notorious murder case dating back to 1918 - that of the last tsar and his family, the Romanovs. The bones of Tsar Nicholas II and his wife, reburied in a St Petersburg cathedral, will be re-examined. Revolutionary Bolsheviks killed the family in a cellar in the Urals region. The Investigative Committee, a state body, says new checks are needed in order to verify the remains of four other Romanov family members. The Russian Orthodox Church requested the new investigation in July - despite the fact that the murder case had been closed in 1998. Some church members remain unconvinced that the buried remains are those of the tsar and his wife. The Romanovs were ousted from power and exiled in 1917, shortly before the communist Bolsheviks overthrew the provisional government. Tsar Nicholas II, his wife the Tsarina Alexandra, their four daughters - grand duchesses Anastasia, Maria, Olga and Tatiana - their son, the Tsarevich Alexei and four royal staff members were murdered at a remote house in Yekaterinburg in 1918. The remains of nine victims were found in a mass grave in 1993. But the remains of Tsarevich Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria were found in 2007 at a different spot. DNA tests identified them as the murdered royals. The royal couple and three daughters were formally reburied at St Petersburg's Peter and Paul Cathedral on 17 July 1998 - the 80th anniversary of the murder. They were canonised by the Russian Orthodox Church in 2000. The new investigation is focusing on the remains of four Romanovs. They are: Tsarevich Alexei, Grand Duchess Maria - both kept at the Russian State Archive - Alexandra's sister the Grand Duchess Elizabeth Fyodorovna, and Nicholas's grandfather, former Tsar Alexander II, who was assassinated in 1881. Only now can investigators get access to Elizabeth's remains, which are in Jerusalem. Investigators want to examine spots of blood on the greatcoat of Alexander II. He was killed by a bomb thrown by a "People's Will" revolutionary, and buried in his military uniform in the Peter and Paul Cathedral. Documents from the so-called "White Guards Investigation" concerning the 1918 murder will also be studied. They came to light in the past four years. |

I hate to sound totally shallow but I'd like an investigation into why ABC cancelled The Love Boat. I think there is a really big story behind this. |

The international banking criminals (mainly Morgan/Rockefeller in the USA and others in UK) knew that Nick was the richest man in the world so they decided to go kill him and steal his dough(plus his oil and business interests of course).....and that is exactly what they did. In conjunctia with financing the Bolsheviks Lenin, Trotsky, etc. Nick had made the fatal mistake several years before of moving a few billion to London and NYC banks, which money is still there btw. Though we are not supposed to remember that because if a valid Romanov claimant were recognized then the criminals of JPM Chase et al., would have to fork over billions(including the interest since 1917). Naturally no USA federal judge would agree to this since they are all stooges of the banking criminals. Perhaps the doubters of the Orthodox Church have a point....it is certainly possible.

They were all so beautiful. I know there were lots of poor people at the time, but it seems prophetic that the uglies killed all the pretties. Look what Russia became. Is it better now? Putin is Satan. |

No, Putin is good. He restored Holy Mother Church and had the martyrs declared saints/ Edited by Erna, Sep 26 2015, 10:03 AM.

True, plus the Russian people have more freedom under Putin than they ever did under the Marxists/Communists/Socialists. |

Being muslim is not a race/ethnicity. There are muslim people of all races including white/Caucasian, and Asian. A friend of mine from South Korea was surprised when he learned that there are even some people in South Korea who are Muslim. |

Last night we ate in a Towel restaurant(Lebanese). We have learned to be extremely wary of trying a new restaurant in Barcelona where dining out is often a grim experience. But we observed fish in towels dining there, even an entire Towel family so we thought it would be good. It was not, really. We shall not return. |
