In South American and Central American cultures, the military usually sees itself as "guardians of the constitution and State", which is why they frequently move on refractory and uncompromising political factions and feuders. When the feuds (which, like Roman politics, usually commingle the personal, the familial, and the political indistinguishably) become intractable, the army usually steps in. In this case, the president has turned out to be a Marxist lout intent on revolution, so they appear to have moved to protect the constitution and society at large.
