Well I have to credit the algorithm again for suggesting this to me. I listened to the audiobook and it was a well worth a listen though, as always, I wonder how much is true and how much is the author's slant on things.

I wonder why I never thought of reading about Dulles before because his name pops up all over the place and if the CIA was into some funny business then he was definitely aware of it, if not the instigator of it.

So as such, the story Allen Dulles is the meta conspiracy theory of the 20th century.

A few of the things stuck out to me. All conspiracies seem to have a Bay of Pigs connection. Howard E. Hunt pops up everywhere and could be the common thread. The chaos at the end of WW2 and the hurried rehabilitation and adoption of former Nazi's into the fight against communism. Whoever sponsored Bobby Kennedy's assassination probably also sponsored JFK's assassination as Bobby did not believe the official story and was going to investigate it if he became president. Both assassins were really weird characters. Such unlikely backgrounds.

Lot's of interesting stuff. I'll probably listen again sometime.
