Revolutions cost money. Not much, actually. All it takes is an angry populace and an inept government with a poor hold on its coercive apparatus. You haven't answered my question on motive. Why would international bankers lend money to a communist organization that would not have any conceivable intention of paying them back? What would they stand to gain? Who loaned the money, in exchange for what? What do you think was exchanged? There is no need to look for a conspiracy behind a revolution. Not that outsiders do not occasionally try to forment discontent and provoke revolution in other countries, for their own motives. But unless the basic prerequisites for revolution - a government without control and an angry populace - are present, no degree of conspiracy or provocation will produce revolution.
