Abstract
This chapter tests the claim whether US foreign policy under President Obama represents continuity or change. It also proposes the real Obama Doctrine and its principles. In order to test the claims, the study conducts a comparative case study analysis of US foreign policy toward Iran, Turkey, Syria, and the war against the ISIL. It finds that US foreign policy under President Obama represents continuity and the principles of the Obama Doctrine are in line with the geostrategic objectives of the USA in the Middle East and the strategies it has been implementing to achieve those objectives. What makes the Obama Doctrine different from other doctrines is its emphasis on the speak softly and carry a big stick principle of the Roosevelt Corollary.
