The Obama administration's policy in the Middle East appears to be designed to remove secular tyrants and replace them with more religiously oriented regimes. Thus, Gaddafi ("We came, we saw, he died." Ha ha ha.) and Mubarak were targeted. Bashar al Assad is the current target. This policy has been marked by monumental incompetence, mendacity, and confusion. Nothing about it should be accepted without a healthy dose of skepticism, including what follows.
The Telegraph of the U.K. has a video of U.S. commandos fleeing a town under a barrage of insults ("Crusaders! Infidels! Dogs! Get out!") from the Free Syrian Army, our supposed allies. CENTCOM commander General Lloyd Austin testified that a 500-million-dollar program to train opposition soldier had resulted in "four or five" being trained. CIA-backed rebels have had armed confrontations with Pentagon-backed forces. Two of Senator John McCain's Libyan "heroes," Abdelhakim Belhadj and the late Abu Mosa, turned out to be ISIS leaders. Turkish and Saudi allies clearly do not have the same objectives as the U.S. Former U.S. Department of State senior adviser David Phillips said, "Turkey's role has not been ambiguous – it has overtly supported the ISIL."

He will do all he can to harm the United States.
Just so. Nothing confused about it. He’s a Muslim terrorist.
It’s only confusing if you actually believe obama cares about our country.
There’s a policy? I thought they were just winging it - badly.
For,the last time its not confusion.
These jourolistas are propagandists saying this.
It is deliberate policy because hes a g-d muslim.
If there is a policy it's probably something like "What can I avoid doing today?".
Obama is a loyal jihadi-type duck. How hard is that to comprehend?
Excellent point. It's not hard at all to me
Yeah he cares so much about our country that he wants to destroy it.
I disagree, his jihadi support comes from his pro-soviet world view. The more anti-American a group is the more legitimate it is in his view, and very few are more anti-American than jihadis. The rest of US foreign policy during his tenure can be heavily explained as paralysis by analysis; typically by the time a decision has been made, the time for decisive action of any kind has passed (or at least effective pro-US action).
Try again. I am an honest ear.
If Obama is pro-soviet the Pope is Jewish.
