the problem with trying to be the world's policemen is that many if not most of the world's countries are dictatorships of one form or another and it has been like that since the beginning of civilization, 8,000 years ago. So where do you start?
North korea? China? Burma? Sudan? Congo? Syria? Kazakhstan? Saudi Arabia? Egypt? Lybia? Algeria? Chad? Venezuela?
The U.S. had grand ideas of bringing western style democracy to Iraq and the middle east when it invaded in 2003. Look how well that turned out..
Better to deal with the urgent problems on a case by case basis.
