Remember which side the protest is on do not matter. The American tactic is to use populist movement to topple existing government, then hijack the movement to install the correct leader. The said leader's ideology do not matter, they can be islamist, military junta, whatever, as long as he listen to America's directive he stays. Bonus point if the person submit all his wealth to US as demonstration of loyalty (blackmail). Follow his action, not his words.
It’s quite unbelievable that governments still fall for such easy CIA colour revolutions. We all know the playbook yet countries still fall for it. NGO, student protesters, social media. Do these countries have counter intelligence? If you can’t protect your country from foreign subversion, no point even having a military. If they are too stupid to still fall for this trick, they are too stupid to live.
