Andrew Smith's article is close to the truth, he misses some important details. The Duke D'Oleans was funded by the British intelligence to buy up the French grain harvests. He then gained control of the nation's news papers and blamed the famine he created on Louis XVI. Louis did little to stop him, and he learned if you don't use your head you loose your head.

The "Illuminati" keep getting blamed, but what is this shadowy entity? It was the British Crown. They were sore at France for its aid to the American Revolution. Lafayette returned to France and became mayor of Paris. He convinced King Louis to phase out the monarchy and replace it with an American type government. The British crown got wind of this and could not allow France to break away from the ancient Babylonian economic model of despotic Oligarchy.

Interestingly Lafayette housed 3 American spies in Paris, James F. Cooper, (Last of the Mohicans) Samuel Morse (The Morse Code) and Alexander A. Poe.

The biggest threat to the British Empire was the American Constitution. To this day it is still the biggest threat to the ancient Babylonian economic system in the form of the City of London-Wall Street world economic hegemony and all of its auxiliary organizations; also known as The Beast.

Finally somebody made this point clear ( that "revolutions" are always organized and financed from outside and don't arise from the native people's desires ). Also, an interesting addendum, that Robison and other "non-official/revisionist" historians mentioned is that to aid and add numbers to the Jacobins ( Low-level deluded french Freemasons ) thousands of MERCENARIES were hired, specially from Germany and Italy, to agitate and attack Bastille, killing sadistically the Royals.

A reason for this could be found in the Protocols of The Learned Elders of Zion ( book shamefully "forbidden" and out of press here in Brazil due to pressure from the Israelite Federation ) where they explicitly point that the Gentile's only hope and protecting power, his "breastfeeding mother" is the Blood Monarchs, cause corrupted as they may be, they still hold a symbiotic ( and symbolic ) attachment to their original people.

Instead, the document goes on, "we" should replace that with demagogues and opportunists and establish "democracies" in which all parties eat from our hands ( they are begging for campaign money every 2 and 4 years ) . One of the reasons why I stand for the restoration of the Empire here in Marx-stinking ( and bankster-occupied ) Brazil.

Another point nobody makes nor even dare to talk about is the interesting "American Revolution", in which 90% of the intellectually involved were Freemasons and during the Independence War that followed, while British troops and natives were beating the daylight out of each other, Washington, Franklin and others were partying and having eugenic-driven ritualized sexual orgies in the infamous "Hellfire clubs" in ENGLAND. Why nobody digs on that?
