🔍 Discover the Chilling Secrets of the Stasi — 🌍 The World’s Most Fearsome Spy Network 🕵️♂️
STASI – five letters associated with dictatorship, terror, violation of human rights, and mass surveillance. These all-powerful secret services disappeared almost instantly following the fall of the Berlin Wall, leaving behind 111km of files, 41 million record cards, 1.4 million photos, and several films and audio recordings. Those are still being explored today by historians, journalists and the victims who want to understand why their lives were shattered.
Over the past thirty years, this reconstruction process has already revealed new information: it has shown that the Stasi had recruited minors as official informers, and had also forced former Nazis to spy for them.
But the Stasi has not yet revealed all of its secrets. In order to accelerate the process, German engineers have developed a special piece of software to put pack together 60 million pieces of paper.
Using new discoveries and original Stasi documents, and with the help of experts, we will tell the story of the most effective secret service in the Communist bloc. At the same time, interviews with several ex-Stasi officers will shed light on their methods and allow us a rare glimpse at their state of mind, and the reasons why they pursued their compatriots for the sake of an ideology. Their victims will also tell their stories, helping us understand not only the repression they faced, but also how this affects their lives to this day.

We have new Stasi in the UK.
One of Stasi's top echelons, was arrested in early '90's, at the hotel of an old friend of mine, in Athens. It seems that the fool thought that just because Honecker's personal doctor was a Greek, that he could find a safe heaven here, after the collapse of the DDR!….FAT CHANCE!
P.S. there's nothing better about communism, capitalism It really a whole lot better, but we have somewhat of a choice.You all just traded one dictator for another😮😮😮
I would like to have some fun with Anna Funder.
Hottie. ❤❤❤
If any of you form a workers of this organization are watching all I can say is you lose. Your system sucks.
Ai voice , too bad…
Corporate 🇺🇸 & CIA.
How the hell can anyone think Communism is good…
There will be no peace until it's wiped out.
I covered this extensively in my book, but in 1989, In Berlin, I was " befreundet" by a guy who said he was a " truck driver with special permission to drive in the West". I immediately picked up on the Sachsich accent. But as a savvy Officer, I knew/ suspected what I was dealing with. I was very often in Berlin to include East Berlin. So evidently I was ID'd as someone to " approach". Later, the Wall fell, the DDR dissolved, and the Stasi was heading for the exits. Imagine seeing this same guy, standing at my table at ny favorite Greek restaurant…just 1km from my Base in Ansbach, two beers in hand. He then admitted to being a Senior Captain in the MfS. Not just that…but a member of the " Auslands Aufklärungs Einheit". These were the special Unit responsible for Foreign Reconnaissance/ Espionage/Sabotage…to include assassinations. We spent 2 hours together, he shook my hand…( offered to " help me" with a problem I was having at the time…) so read my book! 😉. He wished me well…said he had a duffel bag full of cash & documents and to visit him on Mallorca! An amazing time….oh, he gave me his dress uniform and parade dagger. I still have it in my collection.
And here in the UK the government are slowly building up a Stasi.
