Two weeks prior to JFK's hit there was a hit in Vietnam. Col. Lucien Conein (CIA) was the point man. JFK stated in his audio diary that he never wanted that to happen. Conein also happens to be standing on the corner as JFK's limo enters the kill zone in Dallas. Apparently Truman had some crazy notion that CIA/Pentagon and JFK were not getting along regarding policy and felt that writing an article a few weeks after his hit was warranted.

It's sad how such programs are circulating in the United Kingdom while mass media outlets in the United States won't dare air something this relevant.

Why would Truman write about the CIA more than 10 years after he was President... And btw, the CIA was much different in the 60s than it is today...

Ike's stunning warning reverberates to this very day. Did Ike figure he was on the way out of office and felt he could at last speak freely?

Perhaps Bush will warn us against the industrial shoe complex...

I never had any thought that when I set up the CIA that it would be injected into peacetime cloak and dagger operations. Some of the complications and embarrassment I think we have experienced are in part attributable to the fact that this quiet intelligence arm of the President has been so removed from its intended role that it is being interpreted as a symbol of sinister and mysterious foreign intrigue—and a subject for cold war enemy propaganda. - Harry Truman DEC. 1963
