chile got a bad hand from the us dislike of their choice of president and wound up with the cia option gen. pinochet, i'd say they would be a loser.

Different scenario. The CIA is under the same rules as MI5, much to our (and I assume your) chagrin. Plus, some Chileans wanted Al Gore

as much as i'd love to believe the cia are a complete law unto themselves i am going to guess that somewhere, someone reports to a bloke in an oval room.

Obviously I don't know. I suspect that since we change administrations every 4 or 8 years, there are departments in the CIA that have set policies & report to no one, due to agenda changes. Plausible deniability scenario.

i like the idea of plausible deniability, it's like selective ignorance
