To a certain extent. But aren't the countries in the near vicinity the most able?

That's the problem.

The western democracies aren't weak like TropicalDingDong says, their governments have chosen their side.

And if the neighboring countries do anything about it, the western democracies will take action.

The inaction isn't due to inability, but due to apathy for the Palestinians.

It's Western democracies that tamed Middle Eastern countries to make sure they're always on Israel's side, or at least effectively neutral. You can see it from Saudi Arabia's weapons and war in Yemen to Egypt's aid; the US spends a lot of money and political capital to buy the Middle East's cooperation in Israel's Apartheid/genocide project. And if that wasn't enough, they deployed strike carriers to make sure nobody intervenes militarily.
