The US military has plans for everything. We have plans to invade the UK, Mexico, and Canada. We also have a large stack of smaller operations always on the drawing board.
This wasn't a plan that Obama approved of. If Obama approved of this plan, it would have happened months ago. Instead, it was one of dozens of plans drawn up by the military. The Trump administration pulled it off the shelf, and gave the go order, and it went bad.
No matter what, the ONLY person responsible for this is the President. The President gave the go order.
