Abstract
The scholarly consensus regarding the CIA and the Six Day War holds that the Agency’s intelligence enjoyed a clear impact on President Johnson’s policy and thereafter markedly improved the White House-Langley relationship. Yet this narrative places excessive emphasis on the role of the Agency, while additionally overlooking several other international and domestic contextual factors that would have informed Johnson’s policy decision-making. Subsequently, evidence also suggests that Johnson’s relationship with the CIA and its intelligence did not improve after June 1967, and that DCI Helms did not become a close confidant of the President.
