We've overthrown at least half a dozen South American leaders in a hundred years. Look up the term color revolution, just because a government helps doesn't mean it's what they wanted or planned for. Gaddafi, Sadaam, The Iranian revolution we helped spark, hell we even tried to oust Assad under Obama. Eastern Europe has nations that change names very 10 years. Remember Georgia fell on Obama's watch?
I will say it's the hard truth that they fell for being weak, but there exists an entire book of nations we start proxy wars over. I study these events because I have understood they were necessary at the time, the alternative would have been horrendous. This backfired horribly with Iran and now we have to deal with that mess.
