Obama's actions of late have been so confusing, I think perhaps we ought to start a series of articles called "What The Fuck Is Obama Doing?" wherein we all speculate as to the possible strategy.
I wrote one of these, which I entitled "The Huma Initiative."
Today I received an email from Nico containing his speculation.

What The Fuck Is Obama Doing?
Obama's actions of late have been so confusing, I think perhaps we ought to start a series of articles called "What The Fuck Is Obama Doing?" wherein we all speculate as to the possible strategy.
I wrote one of these, which I entitled "The Huma Initiative."
Today I received an email from Nico containing his speculation.
Here it is:
I have been thinking about what's been going on with the US-Iran and US-Israel relations. I haven't come to any sort of conclusion just yet but I am wondering if all Obama wants is to be seen as someone great, as the savior of (those he thinks are) the weak?
He called Mahmoud Abbas as soon as he became president. And tried vehemently to JUST GET A PEACE DEAL done between Israel and Arabs so that he would be "the president who achieved peace where it was impossible". He knew Arabs wouldn't give up anything, so his logical conclusion was to force Israel to give up everything. Because after all, Israel is "mighty" whereas the Arabs are "underdogs", the weak.
That seems to have gone nowhere. So he turned his full attention to Iran.
Iran. Weak, underdogs again, with the "whole world turned against them". No one but Obama and a select few in his admin understand the poor Iranians. Everyone else, including the mighty arrogant Israelis, is too foolish and nationalist and white to understand what the real intentions of Iran are...if only everyone understood what Obama knows!"
That is why the American people, who are mighty and arrogant just like the Israelis, don't need to know the details of the deal since they don't have the awesome knowledge that Obama does. Once the deal has been reached, THAT'S when people will realize the awesomeness and wisdom of Obama's thought. Only then will they realize that he was "the president who saved humanity".
I think this kind of thinking, more than anything else, may be the driving force behind all these utterly illogical and stupid foreign policy decisions that we have seen by this admin. The assistance to Egypt - now that 10 Arab countries are attacking Shiites in Yemen - also fits into that because if Obama was merely pro-Iran, he wouldn't be trying to help Egypt.
This also does not seem like "I will assist them so they fail and then their weapons fall into the hands of ISIS" because Egypt has proper military as opposed to Libya. Even a doofus with limited knowledge of Middle East knows that. The Muslim Brotherhood can not defeat the Egyptian military, and neither can ISIS.
This move by Obama now seems to be a last ditch effort to get his name signed on something else that he did absolutely nothing for. He also seems to be under pressure from the Arabs who are also what Obama would think of as "mighty" (as opposed to "weak"), but are actually leading from the front, unlike what he has been able to achieve so far. He wants to take credit for what they may achieve in this fight.
In the end, I think he wants to be known for something. Its possible that because all he grew up with was "dreams of his father" and nothing real, he is primarily motivated by the longing for some legacy he can call his very own. Something that people would say "well Obama achieved that...". Truth is, he's a community organizer who achieved nothing in his life. Having won elections not because of anything he did but because of his team that was doing everything for him I think he does not feel fulfilled.
And he is ready to burn down the world to make sure he feels fulfilled. I think maybe that is the reason for what he's done. I think narcissism may be the only logical explanation to this.
