While you're not entirely wrong about that, there's more than enough blame to go around:
Via the Sykes-Picot agreement, the British, French and sorta the Italians laid the groundwork for centuries of violence by betraying the Arabs (who helped them topple the Ottomans) in order to further their own colonial and arguably Zionist objectives.
More recently, the French were the first to go all-in against Gadaffi. While the US piled on later, it's difficult to argue that the US is the sole military provocator in recent middle-eastern refugee-spawning wars.
I overall agree with your points, but attempting to declaim all responsibility by pointing at the big evil Americans comes off as ahistorical, head-in-sand deflection.
