Since 1947, when the CIA was established, the US has had a continuous semi-covert, semi-overt policy of overthrowing foreign governments. In fact, the CIA was designed to avoid genuine democratic oversight and provide presidents with “plausible deniability.”
自1947年CIA成立以来，美国一直有一套半隐蔽半公开的颠覆外国政府政策。事实上，CIA就是为了避免真正的民主监督、为总统提供“合理否认”（plausible deniability）的。CIA在全球各个地区推翻了数十家政府，在当地和国内从未受到问责。
