Hollweg as Robespierre
The Kaiser: "He has managed to fool the German Socialists. Why should he not fool the Russian Socialists?"
Few things have been more disheartening in the course of the War
than the way in which the Teutonic foes of liberty have used so
many friends of liberty in Russia as unwitting instruments to undermine
and destroy the resistance of the Russian people to the German
armies.
Vast territories, amounting to nearly half a million square miles in area, have thus been abandoned to German domination, practically without a struggle; and over fifty million people in the abandoned regions have seen their prospects of freedom vanish.
The German armies thus released from the eastern front and poured into northern France, have enormously increased the difficulties of the Armies of Liberty, battling in France and Belgium to save the world for Democracy.
