One thing to consider, as if there aren't a billion things to consider: Red October refers to the Russian Revolution of 1917. Look at what is going on in Russia right now, with the situation in Ukraine. There are a hundred observations and corollary discussions to be made, but one thing is for sure - the 1917 October Revolution changed Russia forever when the old Czarist hierarchy was overthrown, and to them at that time Russia became a "New Order." If Russia succeeds [and I believe they are succeeding] and Ukraine is absorbed, the world order will change, and it is how the West responds that will be under the microscope.
