I think you'd be naive if you think something like Operation Northwoods is the only plot the CIA has cooked up just because we know of its existence.

Something I'd never assume, let alone say in seriousness. In fact, I think my sarcasm couldn't deliver such a line. The CIA is a known entity with known habits, even if given examples are not always known. To this day, they have a reputation even for giving money to terrorist organizations, which is a head-scratcher since I don't think Antifa has gotten a single check since being declared as terrorists here in the US?

Basically, your logic is that the CIA only ever tried something this nefarious this one time and it was stuffed by JFK and they've been relatively above the floor after that

No, my approach is to elaborate on the one example brought up before me, not on anything else. See, here would be like you asking me about a specific kind of apple, and I respond in terms of its color, texture, and flavor, and now you're saying that by my logic, somehow, all apples are crisp and tart because I dared say anything of substance about the one kind of apple you'd brought up.

then I think you've got your head in the sand tbh

Such an ironic idiom since it's used to compare a manmade behavior of hiding from the truth to a separate behavior of a bird seeking to leave their eggs somewhere relatively safe. But by all means keep using said idiom.
