	Erich Mielke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mielke headed the Stasi from 1957 until the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
		In 1989 Mielke was responsible for one of the most famous TV incidents of East Germany: When he addressed the members of the Volkskammer as "comrades", as he was accustomed to doing, some angry non-SED members asked him to refrain from calling them that.
		Mielke's unmarked grave is outside the memorial section established at the entrance in 1951 by East German leaders for communist heroes.

	Erich Mielke, Former Chief of Stasi, Dead at 92
		Mielke's career epitomized the grimness of Communist rule in East Germany, where assassination, kidnapping, execution, denunciation and intimidation were instruments used to achieve and maintain power under the long, menacing shadow of the Soviet Union.
		Mielke reportedly was morose in his cell at the old Moabit prison, where warders supplied him with a red telephone, the kind he had enjoyed as a member of the East German Communist Politburo, but not connected outside.
		Erich Mielke was born on Dec. 28, 1907 in a tenement in western Berlin.

		Erich Fritz Emil Mielke (December 28, 1907 - May 21, 2000 in Berlin), was a Germany Communist.
		From 1936 to 1939 he was sent to fight in the Spanish Civil War on the Republican side; during World War II he found himself caught in France, interned as an enemy alien by the Vichy regime.
		However Mielke's activities during World War Two are disputed, for he was often heard singing Soviet Partisan songs with fellow Stasi officials and hence it is possible that Mielke fought as a partisan behind Germany lines on the Eastern Front.

	The Enemy Within
		He is one of the most appalling individuals of the past century; the secret service Mielke built was, given the size of the population, the most powerful and most absurd in human history, and it ruined the lives of thousands.
		Mielke is best remembered for the line "Everyone is a potential security risk," a sentiment he would have applied to himself, if circumstances demanded it.
		In the end, Mielke succumbed to his own unrelenting suspicion: he assembled a body of information as extensive and impossible to encompass as life itself, and since he was suspicious above all else of the party's leaders, he saw to it that they didn't receive even the most basic data.

	Obituary: Erich Mielke--the career of a German Stalinist
		Erich Mielke was born in 1907 in the Berlin district of Wedding, the son of a cartwright.
		The KPD Mielke joined in 1927 was, however, quite a different one to that which had been created eight years earlier under the leadership of Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht.
		Mielke dated his party membership back to 1925 and stated he had been the political leader of a local street branch and had undertaken a “struggle against the ultra-left Trotskyists”.

	Stasi
		It was Erich Mielke, a three-star general (awarded four stars in 1980) and head of the Ministry for State Security (MfS), the secret police, popularly referred to as the "Stasi." Mielke was already the most feared man in East Germany.
		This file contained materials assembled by a Berlin court in the 1930s, and included details of Mielke's activities as a young communist thug and agitator; police reports of his involvement in the 1931 murder of two police officers in Berlin; and records of his schooling in the Soviet Union.
		Mielke was found guilty and sentenced to six years in prison -- a virtual life term for a man who was then eighty-six.

	Spying Berlin
		In Erich Mielke's office, Minister for State Security of the former East Germany (GDR), my hand hovered over the three telephone sets - the `secret, the top secret, and the ultra top secret.' Lifting the `ultra top secret' handset to my ear I half-expected a voice to crackle at the other end.
		In Erich Mielke's quarters everything is as Mielke and his secretary left it.
		I scribbled the details of Mielke's apartment: the TV in a corner, the lace windows drawn, the bed neatly done, a blanket folded at the edge of the bed, and a tray full of clay models - banana, gnome, dog, lemon - that kindergarten children presented to Mielke.
