Lenin Returns to Russia!

"On this historic day, Comrade Martov and I have returned, united as one!
The Tsar is gone, but our fight has only just begun. Who controls our homeland now? Bourgeois liberals and capitalists, supported by their traitorous Trudovik allies! They seek the destruction of all that the Tsar's toppling has given us! They canot even decide which course of the war to take! The Foreign Minister wishes for a peace, while the War Minister seeks its continuation!
Lvov, you cannot have it both ways!
We socialists promise three simple things: An end to the capitalist war, land for all in our homeland, and ending the famines that we have been stricken by. In short, we promise you peace, land, and bread!
The Tsar may be gone, but there is much to do. Today, the revolution has truly begun!"
