The United Nations has primarily served both to give permission for the State of Israel to exist and to be a meeting place for countries to hammer out armistices to various Middle Eastern Wars such as the Arab-Israeli Wars, the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, the Lebanese Civil War, the Iran-Iraq War, and the Persian Gulf War of 1990-1991.

The United Nations has passed numerous resolutions to try to end the conflict and passed many successful ceasefire resolutions like UNSC Resolutions 242 and 338, which still form the basis of negotiations to this day.

What action did the United Nations take after World War 2 that led to a lot of conflict in the Middle East?
The question is driving at the decision to divide Mandatory Palestine between a Jewish State and an Arab State according to UNGA Resolution 181 (II). However, the qualification of "much" is problematic. While this resolution is responsible for some of the current conflict in the Middle East, most of the sources of Middle East conflicts are endemic to the Middle East and are not due to any UN Resolutions. For example, the Arab-Israeli conflict is the only conflict that resulted from UNGA Resolution 181 (II) and even most of that conflict still would have taken place without a UN resolution since both sides were already fighting. Also the Lebanese Civil War, the Iran-Iraq War, the Persian Gulf Wars, the current Syrian Civil War, and numerous other conflicts in the Middle East have nothing to do with UNGA Resolution 181 (II).

How much time at the United Nations is spent on the Middle East compared to other world regions?
Considering how many people actually live in the Middle East, the United Nations spends an exorbitant amount of time on the Middle East. The countries with the most UN Resolutions are Israel and (distant second) Sudan. There are around 400 million Middle Easterners as opposed to 972 million Americans (North and South America), but there is more than 3x as many UN Resolutions about the Middle East.
