Not sure this makes sense. Isn't the slogan "All Power to the
Soviets of Workers', Peasants'. and Soldiers' Deputies" precisely a
concrete in the circumstances way of saying "turn the imperialist
war into a civil war"? And wasn't the Bolsheviks opposition to
continuing the war after February even to "defend" the Provisional
government an application of "revolutionary defeatism"?
