In the '80s and '90s, the US and Europe were actively arming and supporting their settler-colonial project named "Israel." Ditto for the 2000s through today, as well as going from the '70s all the way back to 1948. Even further back, from 1920 to 1948, the British were administering that colony more directly, under the name "Mandatory Palestine." Immediately before that, Europe was fighting, defeating, and partitioning the Ottoman Empire.
Oh and by the way, Britain was also controlling Egypt at that time, having occupied it during the Anglo-Egyption War starting in 1882 and not giving it up until 1956. And let's not forget about India, either, including the part that would later become Pakistan. Britain's colonial interests there led them to become adversaries with Russia over their spheres of influence in central Asia, including fighting various wars in Persia and Afghanistan in the 1800s.
So yeah, by my reckoning, "Europe and the USA" (but mostly Britain until after WWII) have been fucking with the Middle East CONTINUOUSLY AND WITHOUT EVEN A SINGLE DAY OF PAUSE for 200+ years. And that figure is only because that's as far back as I care to list, not as far back as the colonialism goes!
