But Prince Max of Baden was sleeping. There are only two reasonable explanations of him sleeping that calmly on the decisive moment of the German history. Both of them make us feel that the German “revolution” is very similar to a plot or to an operation of an Intelligence Service.
• It wasn’t by chance that the ill Prince got the horse drench of dormitive and that no one who could have woken him up was allowed to see him.
• Prince chose that pathetic alibi himself, pretended to be ill and quietly “slept” in his study, not interfering into crushing of his country (as all of it had been agreed before).
Let inquisitive historians determine what really happened there. In this case more details doesn’t really make more sense. However, we will mention one more interesting point, featuring the German revolution and “the Sleeping Beau”, Prince of Baden. As it is well-known, crush of the Kaiser Empire started from the sailors’ revolt in Kiel. Just as in Russia, sailors were “beauty and pride” of the revolution. Both our and their Naval forces spent most of the war in ports. Dreadnoughts and battleships were too expensive to let them sink during battles in vain. Thanks to idleness and propaganda, sailors became the impulsive force of “changes”…
The revolt in port Kiel took place, because “the buddies” disaccustomed to military service didn’t wish to take part in the decisive battle with the British fleet. German admirals had a good idea, actually, they wanted to give a fateful battle. And then let the luck hold. Victory could have totally changed the situation, but defeat wouldn’t have made things any worse. Anyway, dying in a battle suits military honor better than capitulation. Though, sailors propagandized by social-democrats failed to support such great idea and started a revolt.
How shall we call this? A military rebellion. Such fault has always been severely punished in every army. In wartime Court martial of any army would simply sentence the guilty ones to execution. However, the German government, including social-democrats, didn’t use force against rebels. Moreover, Prince Max issued an order, prohibiting to use weapons for suppression of expanding disturbances. When his inaction weakened the regime enough, the Reichschancellor instantly woke up and called to headquarters of Kaiser Wilhelm in the town of Spa, suggesting that Kaiser should abdicate. “Only his long-drawn sleep prevented Prince Max from making certain suggestions to Wilhelm before”[46], the British Prime-Minister Lloyd George wrote in his memoirs. You might not feel so, but the more I studied the miracles of that time, the more I doubted that the valiant German Prince Max was sleeping, indeed…
This situation looks very alike our February revolution, when the Monarch was made to abdicate. It was this abdication, not “the revolution situation”, which instantly put the country on the Death’s door. Though, whereas Nicolas II yielded to blackmail, Kaiser showed some temper. He was able of doing it, because unlike his Russian cousin he wasn’t under arrest. However, such persistence of the Monarch prevented starting of the further mechanism, intended to quickly liquidate the entire German Empire as the powerful military country. So, it was necessary to tell some bold lies.
Max of Baden made something absolutely incredible, which Prince and Prime-Minister could never have done. He announced that Kaiser had abducted despite the fact that the latter clearly refused to do so!
The Head of the German government Prince Max of Baden “fell asleep” in autumn 1918. That time was so crucial for history of Germany that he can be easily convicted of treachery
In fact, Wilhelm abducted only three weeks after his abduction had been announced![47] And Prince wasn’t just Reichschancellor, he was the cousin of Kaiser. If this was not treachery, what shall treachery be like?
There are some other “accidental coincidences” assuring us that both our and the German revolution were made with one pattern. February disorders in Petrograd started on February 23, right after the Tsar left for his Headquarters in Mogilev. Eight days later Russia learnt that he had abducted. It was all the same in Germany. On October 28, 1918 Wilhelm left Berlin for his Headquarters in Spa, and twelve days later Germans learnt that they didn’t have a Monarch anymore…
It is well-known that when the Moor has done his work, the Moor can go. Having appropriated the God’s authority (as the Monarchs were the Lord’s Anointed), Max of Baden instantly announced his retirement and appointment of Ebert, leader of social-democrats, to the Chancellor’s post. At first he ceded his Kaiser, then he ceded his post. In an hour (!) after that the second leader of the social-democratic party Scheidemann extended the revolution even further, having arbitrarily announced Germany a Republic!
The Government of “the sleeping” Prince Max stayed at power for only a month. And within this period it managed to loose all German allies, and even Germany itself! Later Hitler called these gentlemen proditors and traitors. And it wasn’t only about smooth liquidation of Monarchy. Scheidemann, Ebert and their accomplices hastily signed cessation of arms with the Entente countries, as soon as they came to power. It was made so handily that Germans were outwitted as a middlebrow in a shellgame. When one reads this document, no doubt about sponsors of the German revolution remain.
“Clause 4. The German army shall cede the following military goods: 5 thousand cannons, 25 thousand machine guns, 3 thousand trench mortars and 1,700 airplanes…
Clause 7. … The Allies get 5 thousand steam locomotives, 150 thousand wagons and 5 thousand trucks…
Clause 9. The German Government undertakes to support occupation armies in the Rhineland (excluding Alsace-Lorraine).
Clause 10. Immediate one-sided repatriation … of all army prisoners, who belong to armies of the allies…”[48]
Besides all the above-mentioned, Germany was obliged to provide its entire fleet to the Entente, i.e. 6 heavy cruisers, 10 battleships, 8 light cruisers, 50 destroyers and 160 submarines[49].
How do you like this armistice? Can text related to armistice contain such clauses? The other wording for armistice is ceasefire. However, the document offered by the Entente and hastily signed by the new German government can only be considered as unconditional surrender. At the same time, if Germans learnt what the British and the French demanded, the population would go on rebelling. That is why the document was called armistice. At first, Germany surrendered its weapons, obliged to withdraw its troops from occupied lands and to hand over its fleet to the Entente’s supervision, to hand over all of its heavy armament and transport means and to release all captives. Only when Germans had no more army and means of resistance the peace talk was to be started. In fact, at first Germans surrendered their weapons, and only then they learnt the terms and conditions of the deal!
Germany was crushed without a hitch. With Kaiser’s consent the German delegation started peace negotiation as early as on November 7, 1918, even before Wilhelm had abdicated. The allies let Germans consider the offer for 72 hours, which expired on November 11. But Kaiser would never have agreed to such predatory terms. Signing such document actually meant that Germany lost World War I! So, it was necessary that by the time of signing the truce Kaiser wasn’t the Head of Germany anymore. Otherwise, this ceasefire, looking more like surrender, wouldn’t have been signed. That is why Max of Baden had to lie about Kaiser’s abdication on November 9. And the new puppet government instantly signed the documents till November 11, as demanded by the enemy.
