Actually, we practically have been hired by the world to be its police force. When NATO or the UN need someone to do heavy lifting, they call in the United States. But no matter, you are not focusing on the aspects that are pertinent to the analogy in the first place.

Even according to the UN charter, every nation retains an absolute right to self-defense. If we go into Iraq, it will be because we deem it a matter of vital concern to our national interests.
