Charles,
To say Allen Dulles is CIA is really not at all accurate.
He was much, much more than that.
It is not at all an exaggeration to say that he and his brother were responsible for much of the Cold War, even BEFORE Allen became Deputy Director. This was through Allen's association with Gehlen, the rehabilitation of Germany much too fast--in service of their clients at Sullivan and Cromwell, and their clear encouragement of the second Red Scare through their attacks on Truman, their fostering of Nixon, and their role in the Alger Hiss case. (Which was well hidden.) This all came before Allen was Deputy Director.
Beyond that, Dulles was directly associated with the greatest power center in America at the time i.e. the Rockefeller/Morgan nexus, through his employment with both Sullivan and Cromwell and his lengthy role with the CFR (and his brother's even lengthier one).
I mean, do you know how far that goes back? Like the 1920's. They were present when the thing was being set up as a transfer of power from London's Chatham House.
The Dulles brothers, after the war, clearly decided to rehab Germany, and create the Red Spectre as a way of creating even more profits for the Power Elite. And to say they served this Ruling Class, is wrong. They were actually a part of it. They made both their careers and their fortunes from it. Which, in only a slightly modified way, John McCloy did.
Did they know it was BS? Almost certainly they did. They did it anyway, simply because it was their ethos. If you want to see a clear example of this, read McCLoy's testimony at the Japanese internment hearings. Read what he said when Hotel Terminus was released. THere is a guy living in denial.
Those on the operative level, would never have done what they did unless they knew they would be protected in advance. This is where Allen Dulles came in. As Lisa Pease has said, he was Mr. Outside. Angleton was Mr. Inside.
Let us never forget from where Angleton rigged the Italian elections of 1948.
Let us never forget who carried Allen Dulles' ashes at his funeral.
And finally, more and more people are recognizing how key he was. Including, thank God, David Talbot. He was not only a facilitator.
