Talk:Robert Wilton

Unsourced claims and heavy use of primary sources
Before this section is restored we need to: Find a source claiming he was accused of being a right-wing antisemite; find a source claiming he was a proponent of blood libel. Find a source claiming he was criticized by liberal journalists for supporting Kornilov.

"==Criticism== Wilton was accused of being a right-wing antisemite. He was a proponent of blood libel, claiming in his 1920 book The Last Days of the Romanovs that the execution of the Romanovs was a ritual murder by the Jews.  He was criticized by several liberal British journalists for supporting the attempted military coup by Lavr Kornilov.  In 1919 he published "Russia's Agony", which claimed (p. ix) that "Bolshevism is not Russian - it is essentially non-national, its leaders being almost entirely in the race [Jews] that lost its country and its nationhood long ago."

Robert Wilton's "Bolshevik Jews" list
Does anybody want to include in the article a paragraph addressing Wilton's hoax list he allegedly "obtained from the Soviet govt" and included as an appendix in his Book "The Last Days of the Romanovs,"? You know, the list that gets repeated a million times in youtube comment sections, stormfront, reddit etc. that is somehow "proof" that the early Bolshevik govt was comprised of 95% Jews...the list is a hoax, most names are fabricated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8388:540:3980:71E4:75DE:11A9:E465 (talk) 13:47, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
