to go on this, if i may.... Maritunia, which is close to morroco have kept low, but open relationships with israel and are opening more relations with them. Im still not sure the circumstance of the coupe, but i think it was kinda the same as Shah of Iran being toppled. he got toppled because many people hated his rule and hated the fact that he had close and corrupt ties with america, as they accuse! It is the same in this scenario. The Iraq war made it worse, and the Israeli relations was fuming... so, a coupe occured..
