Coup de tat Made in the USA?

Lt. Col. Isaac Zida, the army officer who has seized power in Burkina Faso amid popular protests in the West African country was twice selected to attend counterterrorism training programs sponsored by the U.S. government.

Similarly, in March 2012 in Mali, Capt. Amadou Sanogo, who had attended a half-dozen military training courses in the United States led a coup that deposed his democratically-elected government.
