Despite being dumped by JFK at the advice of RFK, who served on the Taylor Committee to investigate the Bay of Pigs fiasco, Dulles was alive until 1969. He could have taken both Kennedys out. I began to think that was a possibility after reading: "Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA" by Tim Weiner. I just ordered a used copy of "The Devil’s Chessboard" from Amazon. Both Dulles brothers were a-holes. The CIA is the way it is because of Allen Dulles running it exactly the way he wanted, without interference from anyone. And even with Congressional oversight, the CIA is still a corrupt, criminal organization.
I’d be curious to hear your thoughts once you’ve read it.
