So ture. How many govts have been toppled in recent times through military action. I think surprise is that it is happening first time to west without direct military action. Last time govt was toppeled in west was French govt in WW2.

Actually the last time the French government was toppled was in 1958. The communists had become the largest party, and French officers, unhappy with decolonization, especially in Algeria, seized Corsica and planned to invade Metropolitan France in Operation Resurrection.
