Have not read much on this topic but I have seen it mentioned here and there that Helms was involved in "restructuring" Saudi Intelligence when he was ambassador to Iran after Nixon thought he'd fired him.
Am curious about two things and also wonder if anyone has any good readings on these:
1. As suciencty as possible what were the changes Helms made in in S.A.
2. Did these changes also involve changes with Pakistans ISI, even though I am assuming that there was already an earlier Saudi --Pakistan intelligence relationship(s) In other words to what extent was Casey later on, picking up on Helms' regional handiwork from Langley East... or to what extent was he starting from other countries' many scratches in Pakistan.
