Well, try living in a country that shares over a thousand kilometers of border with Russia, and which has been invaded many times by them during past 300 years, resulting in massacres of civilian population. Then you might see things differently.

Without US playing world police my home would probably have been bombed by now... Or maybe Hitler would have won and destroyed Russia, who knows. In any case, I much prefer living in an independent country protected by NATO, over being a member of an enslaved ethnic minority inside Russia, in which case I would have probably been sent to the front lines in Ukraine already.

A flawed world police is better than no world police at all.
