      That was a military coup. They put their generals in charge leaving a puppet government, to be led to sign over assets. When resistance forms to looting resources the military will likely do the old collective punishment to villagers with paramilitary death squads paid by cia fronts sellung drugs and guns. Classic us military really.

      It is a template they filled in the blanks. That op was not possible, with helicoptors, unless the military stood down, there is no question.
