You are giving them far too much credit. Do you really think Allen Dulles and the United Fruit Company murdered Jacobo Arbenz in Guatemala because they were worried he might become the next Hitler? This is just one of dozens of cases where their actions were clearly not meant to benefit anyone other than the small sliver of ruling elites sitting atop the Western power structure.
Dulles literally passed around little copies of this mural because he was proud of how it depicted him! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Gloriosa_Victoria https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Gloriosa_Victoria
And this is without even getting into the fact that the CIA's early leadership worked at Sullivan & Cromwell when they helped fund the Nazis' rise to power, or that they helped thousands of actual Nazis escape justice after the war in order to bring them to the US to aid in all kinds of research.
