Hell, I'll go into them willingly.

Is Israel blameless in the ME mess? Not hardly. For one thing, it was originally stated by Israel that those settlements were just temporary and were intended as bargaining chips to force the Palestinians to the bargaining table.
Yeah, right, anyone want to buy a bridge? I've got the deed to the Golden Gate in my pocket.

And it is quite clear that the Israelis did intentionally and knowingly fire on and sink a US Navy vessel in international waters. And got away with it.

Are the Arabs blameless? Not hardly. Except for the 1956 War, they started each of the Middle Eastern wars. THey have refused to recognize Israel and have denied its right to exist and have repeatedly vowed to destroy it. In the light of that, it is easy to see why Israel feels it must be armed to the teeth and why it wants a buffer zone of former Arab territory around itself.
