From Obama’s perspective he’s saving his Sunni Muslim Brotherhood/Al-Qaeda allies.
It appears that Obama wants to draw Israel into the civil war. That’s his goal.
I think from his perspective he is enacting “Cloward/Priven. His handlers want him to destroy capitalism. He has given us huge debt, he has decimated the military, he wants war with Syria so that Israel will be attacked by I ran and Syria, he wants Russia and China to get involved against us...all to destroy America, hopefully giving the left an opportunity to rebuild a marxist, socialist, islamic future.
