Is this new campaign patch a not so subtle nod to the Muslim Brotherhood terrorist group or just really ugly?

The Operation Inherent Resolve campaign patch has been widely criticized for its similarity to the logo for the radical Islamist and terror front group, the Muslim Brotherhood.
The campaign patch and accompanying medal feature a palm wreath in a crescent shape, three stars, and crossed scimitars on a green background, all of which bear similarities and associations with symbols of Islam, particularly the short, curved swords and crescent moon shape.
“You can keep that ISIS patch featuring swords that chop off our heads,” wrote former Army chief warrant officer David Clay.

Do you think this is a deliberate slap in the face of the military by the Obama administration or just the result of poor taste?
