Is it an accident?
Trump (and specifically, the heritage foundation) believe in isolationism. Alienating its geopolitical and geographical neighbors serves that purpose. Think of it as the groundwork for a full North Korea style break from non-state controlled culture.
In 2016, Trump's issue with Libya was that we didn't send troops in to steal their oil, and then make a deal with whatever faction was willing to sell us the oil cheaply. Same with Iraq. You're are wildly overestimating his moral character if you think he is trying to dismantle the american empire.
