If you find this interesting, read "The Devil's Chessboard" by David Talbot. Nixon was highly indebted to the Dulles brothers, and they carried out many operations like this at home and abroad (including against their own-- see Frank Olson). They also looked the other way (if not helped facilitate) such plots that were carried out by foreign governments they were working with (see Jesús Galíndez case). But let's not pretend this is only something that happened in the past, and would only happen in "Putin's Russia" today as this article's annoying preamble suggests.
