I don't know if I would want the other world superpowers around the world acting as the sheriff. I don't trust India or China on that level period.
While we accuse American troops of being heavy handed, they are nothing compared to the to how China and India's military operate. China would go in there, execute anyone that they deemed a threat. India's troops would probably lose control and go on a country wide killing spree.
If China had gone into Iraq or Afghanistan for pretend example, you would probably have far far greater civilian casualties.
On a humanitarian level, China and India are simply not interested in putting themselves out there and helping. disease and devestation in Haiti, tough luck there. a massive earth quake in a poor country, sorry we have different priorities. India has flood problems the first thing they do is scream to the world, we need your money even though we're an emerging economy, but did they offer to help out anyone else. No.
Its simple, if people want America to stop playing world cop, then simply stop asking for their help.
But how would people react if America hadn't intervened in Korea the first time, or told Kuwait to piss up a rope. How would the world react during the next earth quake or flood or storm if America sent a nice fruit basket with a card saying "Sorry about your luck".
