Most of these were coup attempts with some or any assistance from the US rather than directly orchstrated by the US.

If you had the global reach as a global super power and you saw a country is undergoing a coup, would you not attempt to assist the side you deem more favorable? Even if it is just providing piecemeal assistance?
