OPERATION TRUST: Soviet Long Range Strategy & Perestroika Deception

We look at a Soviet plan from 1921-1926, possibly longer to create a fake, anti-Soviet opposition "pro-monarchy" group. This was done to out dissidents of Bolshevism and to find the locations of former Czarist generals and members of the old aristocracy. It was designed to make them believe communism was failing and Russia was being more nationalistic and that soon the chances of a restoration of the monarchy was possible. It also got them passive and complacent. It convinced them monarchists had penetrated the Soviet ranks in the highest levels and were about to overthrow it. This was all a lie and cunning deception that went on for years. This was the time Lenin first conceived of the use of Soviet "long range strategy", deception and disinformation. Examples: the fake Sino-Soviet split, the fake fall of communism in East Germany, the fake fall of communism in the Soviet Union, aka Perestroika Deception. This ruse was created to fool the west into complacency and arrogance in thinking they had won.
