The problem for Obama is he must pick a place and an enemy. He is obviously sympathetic to militant Islam and he is relatively sympathetic to leftist governments like China and not unfriendly to thugs like Vladimir Putin. So where does Obama find an enemy? If he wants to fight somebody I would recommend Iran but that would advance America's interests by depriving them of the bomb so he won't go there. He might turn up the heat on Isis if only to generate a rally around the flag and rally around the president effect but that would run counter to his basic sympathies.
I fear he might turn his attentions to the far Pacific where China would pose a truly existential threat but one which might intrigue Obama.
As far-fetched as all of this sounds, this speculation, and it is speculation, is based on the assumption that Obama hates the country which he leads, is determined to see it diminished, but he is a narcissist who believes that he alone has insight into truth and light. An empty suit who has prospered by adopting a communist line, a man advanced beyond his competence because of a facility with speech and the color of his skin, a narcissist with the narcissist's absence of conscience, Obama is dangerous.
