Q

This thread is a little difficult to explain in a preface, but, the premise is essentially as follows:

In among all of the corruption, including efforts to investigate by those here and elsewhere, a recurring element in many ways is Russia - a prominent example being the "Russian collusion [with Trump/Clinton]",

I mention both Trump and Clinton there due to both names coming up in their own ways:

• On one hand we have a strong push to have people believe that Donald Trump and those connected with him, colluded with Russians(inc. Putin) in order to rig the 2016 election.
• On the other hand we have mounting evidence to suggest that Hillary Clinton and those connected to her, have been far more involved with Russians and in a more sinister context than anything involving Donald Trump.

Even my own research has brought up Russia-related curiosities, especially relevant to the subject of election fraud(linked to Democrats, with even elements of pedophilia)[0]. Many recent events on the global stage also have strong relevance to Russia, for example, the cases of people being poisoned in the UK being blamed on Putin/Russia & also including accusations that Russians shot down MH17. Other examples exist and I could go on to talk about the Helsinki summit and other recent events, but, that's not exactly the direction I want to go with this.

The underlying point is that looking at the past and present, there's no denying that Russia is an important and consistenly present factor in the investigation of global corruption.

What I'm going to attempt to lay out here is a variety of events and curiosities which appear to link up with and perhaps explain some of these recurring Russia-related elements, in the broader scheme of Hollywood corruption and human trafficking, pedophilia, strange/suspicious deaths, war/terrorism, etc. Indeed, I will also be touching on the subject of the Ottomans again.

The Hunt for Red October

[2. wiki: The Hunt for Red October(film)]:

The Hunt for Red October is a 1990 American espionage thriller film produced by Mace Neufeld, directed by John McTiernan, that stars Sean Connery, Alec Baldwin, Scott Glenn, James Earl Jones, and Sam Neill. The film is based on Tom Clancy's 1984 bestselling novel of the same name.

The story is set during the late Cold War era and involves a rogue Soviet naval captain who wishes to defect to the United States with his officers and the Soviet Navy's newest and most advanced nuclear missile submarine. An American CIA analyst correctly deduces his motive and must prove his theory to the U.S. Navy before a violent confrontation between the Soviet and the American navies spirals out of control.

The film was a co-production between the motion picture studios Paramount Pictures, Mace Neufeld Productions, and Nina Saxon Film Design. Theatrically, it was commercially distributed by Paramount Pictures and by the Paramount Home Entertainment division for home media markets. Following its wide theatrical release, the film was nominated for and won a number of accolades. At the 63rd Academy Awards, the film was honored with the Academy Award for Best Sound Editing, along with nominations for Best Sound Mixing and Best Film Editing. On June 12, 1990, the original soundtrack, composed and conducted by Basil Poledouris, was released by MCA Records.

The Hunt for Red October received mostly positive reviews from critics and was the 6th top-grossing film of the year, generating $122 million in North America and more than $200 million worldwide in box office business. The film was the first in a series involving the fictional character Jack Ryan, played additionally by Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck, and Chris Pine. Jack Ryan is also played by John Krasinski in the upcoming TV series Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan.

[3. wiki: The Hunt for Red October]:

This article is about the 1984 novel. For the film of the same name, see The Hunt for Red October (film). For other uses, see The Hunt for Red October (disambiguation).

The Hunt for Red October is the debut novel by Tom Clancy, first published on October 1, 1984 by the Naval Institute Press. It depicts Soviet submarine captain Marko Ramius as he seemingly goes rogue with his country’s cutting-edge ballistic missile submarine Red October, and marks the first appearance of Clancy’s most popular fictional character Jack Ryan, an analyst working for the Central Intelligence Agency, as he must prove his theory that Ramius had intended to defect to the United States. The book was loosely inspired by the mutiny on the Soviet frigate Storozhevoy in 1971.[1]

The Hunt for Red October launched Clancy’s successful career as a novelist, especially after then-U.S. President Ronald Reagan remarked that he had enjoyed reading the book.[2] A film adaptation was released on March 2, 1990, and several computer and video games based on the book have been developed. Since then, the book has become instrumental in bringing the book genre of techno-thriller into the mainstream.

The first thing I will note here, is an inconsistency regarding the above wiki entry: In the above, it is stated that the mutiny of Soviet frigate Storozhevoy was in 1971 - all other sources seem to indicate that the mutiny actually occurred in 1975 - as seen even in the description of the book used as reference 1 in that wiki entry, Mutiny: The True Events That Inspired The Hunt For Red October.

[4. wiki: Soviet frigate Storozhevoy]:

Storozhevoy (Russian: Сторожевой, "guard" or "sentry") was a Soviet Navy 1135 Burevestnik-class anti-submarine frigate (NATO reporting name Krivak). The ship was attached to the Soviet Baltic Fleet and based in Riga. It was involved in a mutiny in November 1975.

Mutiny

The mutiny was led by the ship's political commissar, Captain of the Third Rank Valery Sablin, who wished to protest against the rampant corruption of the Leonid Brezhnev era. His aim was to seize the ship and steer it out of the Bay of Riga, to Leningrad through the Neva River, moor alongside the museum ship Aurora, an old cruiser symbol of the Russian revolution, and broadcast a nationwide address to the people from there. In that address, he was going to say what he believed people publicly wanted to say, but could only be said in private: that socialism and the motherland were in danger; the ruling authorities were up to their necks in corruption, demagoguery, graft, and lies, leading the country into an abyss; communism had been discarded, and there was a need to revive the Leninist principles of justice.[citation needed]

On the evening of 9 November 1975, Sablin lured the captain to the lower deck, claiming that there were some officers who needed to be disciplined for being drunk on duty. When the captain arrived at the lower deck, Sablin detained him and other officers in the forward sonar compartment and seized control of the ship. Sablin then summoned a meeting of all the senior officers on the ship. Here a vote was taken amongst the fifteen officers present. Sablin informed the officers that he planned to sail to Leningrad and broadcast his revolutionary message. Eight officers voted in favor of the mutiny; the remaining seven senior members of the ship's crew who did not wish to go along with the plan were locked in a separate compartment below the main deck.[1]

When Soviet authorities learned of the mutiny, the Kremlin ordered that control must be regained, fearing Sablin might follow in Jonas Pleškys's footsteps to ask political asylum in Sweden. Half the Baltic fleet,[3] including thirteen naval vessels, were sent in pursuit and were joined by 60 warplanes[3] (including three Yak-28 fighters), which dropped 500-pound bombs in the vicinity of the rebel ship. The aircraft also strafed Storozhevoy repeatedly. The ship's steering was damaged and she stopped dead on the water 43 miles from Swedish territorial waters and 330 miles from Kronstadt. After warning shots from the closing loyal warships, the frigate was eventually boarded by Soviet marine commandos. By then, Sablin had been non-fatally shot and detained by members of his own crew, who also unlocked the captive captain and officers.[4] All the complement from Storozhevoy was arrested and interrogated, but only Sablin and his second-in-command, Alexander Shein, a 20-year-old seaman, were tried and convicted. At his trial in July 1976, Sablin was convicted of high treason and was executed by shooting on 3 August 1976, while Shein was sentenced to prison and was released after serving eight years. The rest of the mutineers were set free but dishonorably discharged from the Soviet Navy.[5]
