Out of all these Communist regimes the STASI or East German ministry for State Security grew to become the largest and most highly organized secret service in history - even in comparison to the feared KGB. Granted the KGB was larger but the STASI over the course of the Cold War became a much more extensive and elaborate security service. Eclipsing even the feared Gestapo of Nazi Germany. Join us for this episode as we examine The STASI.
