Incomprehensible means impossible to make any sense of. Utterly incomprehensible, incomprehensible to me, an incomprehensible decision.
It is often a complaint about the writer rather than a statement about the reader, since most incomprehensible prose could have been written clearly. Added to a decision it means baffling rather than merely wrong, which is a sharper criticism.
