[edit] Contradiction
How can a revolt which began in 1916 have been against the 'Soviet government'? I'm not saying there's anything inaccurate here necessarily - there's just a clear need for clarification. mgekelly 20:39, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
It was against the Russians in general. It was a revolt that took many forms over a period of decades and eventually became anti-Soviet post 1918. In essence, though, it was anti-foreign-power, in this case Russia.
