I disagree, I don't think it was colonialism at work here. The middle east, with the exception of Israel is a very unstable region. I think there are many factors at work here and to blow it all off as "Western Imperialism" is a tad lazy on your part.
Since the last half a century there's been just one reason for the unstability in the middle-east ... the creation of Israel by snatching away a large portion of a sovereign state, followed by the Zionist occupation of whatever was left of that land.
