I was listening to Bob Nevritt last night and he mentioned the US national security
act of 1947 which allowed intelligence agencies to lie to the American public if
necessary.....Hence the term...'National Security' to basically cover all sort of
covert actions.
I found this great old documentary which opens up some of their activities,
in the fifties and early sixties in overthrowing legitimate governments and
includes interviews with CIA director Allen Dulles and Dick Bissel. Explains
a lot of what is going on today...nothing much has changed funding,training
and supporting guerrillas and insurgents & helping overthrow regimes not
in the US interest.

This film presents an account of Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) activities that had
previously been covert, including actions in Iran, Vietnam, Laos, the Congo, Cuba, and
Guatemala. The film includes interviews with CIA director Allen Dulles and Dick Bissel.
About the CIA:
The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is an independent civilian intelligence agency of
the United States government. It is an executive agency and reports directly to the
Director of National Intelligence, with responsibility for providing national security
intelligence assessment to senior United States policymakers. Intelligence-gathering is
performed by non-military commissioned civilian intelligence agents, many of whom are
trained to avoid tactical situations. The CIA also oversees and sometimes engages in
tactical and covert activities at the request of the President of the United States. Often,
when such field operations are organized, the U.S. military or other warfare tacticians
carry these tactical operations out on behalf of the agency while the CIA oversees them.
Although intelligence-gathering is the agency's main agenda, tactical divisions were
established in the agency to carry out emergency field operations that require
immediate suppression or dismantling of a threat or weapon.
The CIA succeeded the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), formed during World War II
to coordinate espionage activities against the Axis Powers for the branches of the United
States Armed Forces. The National Security Act of 1947 established the CIA, affording
it "no police or law enforcement functions, either at home or abroad". Through
interagency cooperation, the CIA has Cooperative Security Locations at its disposal.
These locations are called "lily pads" by the Air Force. The primary function of the CIA is
to collect information about foreign governments, corporations, and individuals, and to
advise public policymakers, but it does conduct emergency tactical operations and
carries out covert operations, and exerts foreign political influence through its tactical
divisions, such as the Special Activities Division. The CIA and its responsibilities changed
markedly in 2004. Before December 2004, the CIA was the main intelligence
organization of the U.S. government; it was responsible for coordinating the activities of
the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC) as a whole. The Intelligence Reform and Terrorism
Prevention Act of 2004 created the office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI),
which took over management and leadership of the IC.
Sometimes, the CIA is referred to euphemistically in government and military parlance
as Other Government Agency (OGA), particularly when its operations in a particular
area are an open secret. Other terms include The Company, Langley, and The Agency.
CIA in the early Cold War-era (1953--1966):
Allen Dulles, who had been a key OSS operations officer in Switzerland during World
War II, took over from Smith, at a time where U.S. policy was dominated by intense
anticommunism. Various sources existed, the most visible being the investigations and
abuses of Senator Joseph McCarthy, and the more quiet but systematic containment
doctrine developed by George Kennan, the Berlin Blockade and the Korean War. Dulles
enjoyed a high degree of flexibility, as his brother, John Foster Dulles, was
simultaneously Secretary of State.
During this period, there were numerous covert actions against left-wing movements
perceived as communist. The CIA overthrew a foreign government for the first time
during the 1953 Iranian coup d'état, at the request of Winston Churchill. Some of the
largest operations were aimed at Cuba after the overthrow of the Batista dictatorship,
including assassination attempts against Fidel Castro and the failed Bay of Pigs
Invasion. There have been suggestions that the Soviet attempt to put missiles into Cuba
came, indirectly, when they realized how badly they had been compromised by a U.S.-
UK defector in place, Oleg Penkovsky. One of the biggest operations ever undertaken by
the CIA was directed at Zaire in support of Mobutu Sese Seko.
