I'll bet, on little direct evidence, that this is the result of US machinations. 
The CIA has run out of color revolutions, or this would be the "Puce Putsch,"

imperial forces need for the war in/against AfPak. This'll teach them (and 
others).  Stopping terrorism demands the destruction of governments: "We had to 
destroy..."
