[edit] Directorates

Should we not list the other directorates? Or if they are all listed, why are there no 6 or 10-15?

On a related note, I think the fourth directorate is transportation security and not transportation.

[edit] Operations

These two are not "operations". Removed.

  • Former Hungarian Prime Minister Medgyessy Péter worked for the Hungarian secret service closely affiliated with the KGB, though he himself denied the accusations by claiming he "defended Hungary against the KGB".
  • Russian President Vladimir Putin was a spy for USSR in the GDR during the 1970s

[edit] ...

Alger Hiss, to the best of my knowledge, was never proven to be a KGB spy, though many people tried to label him as such. Even if this is wrong, I would think that it would be a good idea to point out the controversy.

Fixed. mikka (t) 23:25, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
Here's the relavent document regarding Hiss [1]. It should be noted Hiss worked with GRU. See also Noel Field. Nobs01 16:08, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, never have worked for the KGB, during the Rosenberg's case KGB did not exist, -I think it got to bee change, to (NKVD/NKGB).

  • Please do not confuse the organisation and its name. I commented the section acordingly. mikka (t) 01:19, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] John Walker

I'm surprised that John Anthony Walker isn't mentioned in this article (I don't have good enough writing style to do it myself). He was one of the KGB's successes, right? He spied for a number of years and compromised the US Navy's crypto systems for a number of years, which may have had a part in their bombing failures during the Vietnam war according to this military historian's Master's thesis: [2]. 24.43.87.201 00:27, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

Agreed - from 1968 to 1985, the Walkers did significant damaged the US - they deserve the same billing as Ames and Hanssen. Peckmeister 03:29, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removed

The following whole section is removed. It is quite unprofessional to add such huge lists into the article body untranslated. Not to say that there already is the "Organization" section. Also, this sturcture requires a timestamp attribute. Surely, it was not chizeled in stone forever. Also, a source is also desirable; for verification purposes. mikka (t) 01:23, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism!!!

User:Bass67 Erased the entire article and put information about some Ottawa band under the same name in. I erased it and put the old info back! --(Aytakin) | Talk 21:28, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion

I've deleted the following from Tasks & Organization:

Unlike Western intelligence agencies, the KGB (theoretically) was uninterested in learning the enemy's intentions--only their capabilities; intentions were political decisions based upon Marxist theory.

If it means anything, it ought to be more clearly expressed.--Jack Upland 21:40, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

I'm deleting a part of the Trivia section. It includes unsubstantiated allegations against someone and makes assumptions about future events. --146.57.85.100 05:07, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Well, Stalin's Anus?

"Aldrich Ames was a KGB mole in the anus of Stalin. CIA."

That sounds a but odd, hmm? I don't even know what to correct in that. Jay Kay 16:41, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Last line

The last line of the page is incomplete.

I found where it was deleted and corrected it -- about half the page was missing. - ArglebargleIV 16:12, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Beautiful emblem

It's beautiful! Shiny! Gorgeous! ^_^

these sods murdered my great grandfather, he was Mongolian leader fighting the japanese on the eastern front.
While we're at it, the Schutzstaffel logo looked pretty stylish too. --Green Hill 20:04, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image restored

Some rampaging 'bot deleted the image of Andropov, so I found an Andropov photo [3] on a Marxist website that claims that all of its content is "Creative Commons". So I presume that its OK for Wikipedia. (The only "problem" with the photo is that he's giving a quite friendly wave, for a KGB guy.) There may be some Khrushchev photos too, I didn't spend time looking through their gallery [4] and photo album [5]. - Ryanjo 03:00, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Protection

Since the last several edits have been either vandalism, or reverting vandalism, I think we should consider protecting the page. Comments? Verin 22:09, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Strange section

I have seen this part in "Suppression of dissent" in this article. It seems like a somewhat out-of-place thing to be there, and the spelling is kind of weird, don't you think?

"Some places in gulag was created only to destroy people, not to reform or fix their mind or help them change. Not enough food, no basic life supportive instrument such as bath, or appropriet medical treatment were practiced to exterminate those who was not able to think by templates created by regim, party, KGB. Documents from the archive of the Yale University"

Shall this be removed...or improved, or moved to gulag? -Uagehry456talk 03:07, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] editprotected

Two requests: Unprotect or add a template making note of the protection (EG. Vprotect), and add {{who}} after "by some" in the first sentence of "Modus operandi". Thanx, 68.39.174.238 (talk) 03:30, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "The CPSU directly controlled the KGB and guided its operations"???

The article states, "The CPSU directly controlled the KGB and guided its operations". Is it misprint? There are sources indicating that KPSS followed instructions (recommendations) by KGB. Can anybody provide a source indicating that KGB followed instrucitons or recommendations of KPSS? dima (talk) 09:47, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

You are kinda confused in politics. One thing is to follow recommendations, another thing is to take orders. Everything in the Soviet Union took order from CPSU. Even American President has advisers, whose recommendations he follows. `'Míkka>t 00:00, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
Actually that was Stalin who controlled both NKVD and CPSU. Everyone took orders from him. Later Stalin was replaced by the Politburo of CPSU. Andropov as a KGB boss was able to partly control the Politburo and Brezhnev. To simplify, Brezhnev was drugged by his KGB nurse and transformed into a barely walking and talking garbage, just like Yeltsin later.Biophys (talk) 03:50, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
Nice conspiracy theories you got here, an evolution of Mitrokhin like. How come KGB has been sound asleep face to the wall with Gorbachov? My pick is that KGB was just as stagnating as the Party. Clearly, late Brezhnev was a puppet, but whose? remains to be written. Anyway, the talk page is for discussing the article, and with references, too. `'Míkka>t 05:30, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
