Honestly, did the United States have problems with the Middle East prior to the creation of Israel or even up until the 1960's?

Even further, maybe the Middle East has been so distrustful of the West since Britain, for example, tried to take over Afghanistan in the early 20th Century, which was further supplemented by American fuck-uppery in the whole region?

If the United States were so concerned over protecting themselves, wouldn't it make sense to build a strong defense instead of spreading its army over the entire world?
