[edit] Homeland Security

Has Wolfe been hired by Homeland Security or not? I've found some sources on the subject, none of which inspire too much confindence. Anyone have anything? Crocodilicus 04:34, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

I have added David Cornwell's (John le Carre's) denial of his modelling Karla on Wolf. He has debunked this in the past. However, I have included only his most recent denial (quoted in Wolf's obit), because it does make reference to his past statements. When an author specifically and repeatedly makes a statement of this nature, I believe his statement must be referenced when making any assertions regarding that author's intentions.

[edit] Criminal ?

Sorry but Markus Wolf is not person for this category. He is guilty only because East German state has stoped to exist !! Any chief of secret service has minimal 1 time in life been guilty of:

In 1997 he was convicted of unlawful detention, coercion, and bodily harm, and was given a suspended sentence of two years imprisonment. rjecina 16:10, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

He was convicted, that should be enough.--AchtungAchtung 18:06, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
