My take is that the stalwart military leadership is in a death match with the Perfumed Princes.

Well put.

My personal experience with the Pentagon types is that they are almost (but I'm sure not quite) all Gung Ho pro-American guys (and gals). If this guy is telling the truth and really has the backing of his superiors that would really be something. Good in the sense that the truth is coming out. But something in the back of my head tells me that we don't need the Pentagon messing around (at least publically) in political stuff. They need to fight wars and that is a very tough and definitely 24/7 job. They need to stick to it.

This is a very interesting story. I hope it has legs.

I agree with your hesitation on this point. We don't want the military blythely going around waging successful coups, even in retrospect. I think and hope that may be why this is coming out so slowly and preferably carefully.
