Yeah sure, remove someone from power in a middle eastern country for whatever reason takes your fancy, launch some strikes at another country because chemical weapons were used in a civil war...but don't force the Israelis to stop doing what they want to do. They deserve some slack because of what happened several generations ago and you didn't act fast enough to deal with it at the time.
Also, the northern hemisphere is basically full of potential time bombs.
You reap whatever you sow.
