The MB was heavily involved with the German Third Reich. Interestingly, they had considerable contact with agents of British Intelligence, as well, throughout World War 2 and then were later incorporated into British MI6 and used to foment the first Arab-Israeli war so that the British could sign a treaty with Iraq.
The gist of it is that there seems to be quite a few problems that are either fomented… Or leveraged from an organic state, before a solution is billed from the same group which started it in the first place.
The Bolsheviks are a fun group to trace. When I search for Bloody October, the wiki article on Bloody Sunday comes up with relation to the Bolshevik revolution in Russia that would lead to the consolidation of power under Lenin and the communist party.
Are there Bolsheviks elsewhere in the world? What if Red October, as a movie, is allegory to the Russian Revolution? I am stretching a bit, as my memory of red October is sketchy… But it is an intriguing angle. The hunt for Red October being the hunt for a Bolshevik plan to stage a revolution using a secret group of conspirators.
