Palestine was given to Israel by the UN, who had no claim on the land. Israel moved in and terrorist organizations, the most prominant of which being the PLO, sprang up. As the Palestinian population was displaced by the hundreds of thousands, Lebanon, seeing the humanitarian nightmare, opened its borders to the Palestinians. Unfortunately, some very selfish and cowardly terrorists used Lebanon to strike at Israel. Instead of trying to work with the obviously overwhelmed Lebanese government in order to stop terrorism, they invaded. Had Israel made the right call originally, the Hezbollah wouldn't exist today.

We've interfered with Israel/Palestine, Israel/Lebanon, Iraq/Iran more than anyone else. We're more to blame for the current situation in Israel than Jordan or Egypt or Iran.
Also, none of this changes or excuses the fact that Israel is committing human rights violations every day against a militarily inferior Palestine.
