Middle eastern turmoil is something that has been going on for many years, but has gotten worse since the Reagan admin with the worst act of course being 9/11.
Reagan essentially created the taliban, armed them, and gave them military training, which the later used against us. He even was as far as inviting them to the white house, and even stated they were the moral equivalents to america's founding fathers.
Reagan loved them so much, he even referred to them as "freedom fighters" and went as far as to name the space shuttle columbia after them.

The taliban also have stinger missiles given to them from reagan, which have been largely responsible for american aircraft being shot down.
Taliban still have Reagan's Stingers - Telegraph
Then there is Saddam, whom was BFF with the Reagan admin, even after he was gassing his own people, the Reagan admin didn't care.
Then of course there is arguably the biggest act of treason even committed, with Reagan and his GOP cabinet making illegal arms deals with Islamic extremists with the Iran/contra scandal.
It's interesting to think how things would be now if it wasn't for Reagan and the GOP's actions,...
