Hasn't the middle east been around for like 30x as long as the US has though

US is not free of blame of course but it was the colonial powers that ruled the region who intentionally started the fire.

That area has been the subject of war and destruction since it was first settled thousands of years ago. The colonial powers and later the US didn't help but let's not act like that area was ever anything but an ongoing war.
