Apparently the UN didn't mind when they pleaded that the US solely take care of the situation in Liberia, which even the UN had no competence or guts of themselves. Sort of like Iraq where the UN bailed at the very first sign of trouble. The world wants the US to be the World Police but not the consequences of what actions that would entail. Clinton had no policy whatsoever which amounted to appeasement and ignorance, of which their consequences came to bear later. The world wants more for itself but is unwilling to take the risks to do so. They are jealous that the US is able to do (and be stretched too thin in the process) and thus wants it both ways, the US muscle but not its superpower. The whines and cries of most other nations ring very hollow and quite without credibility.
