"After all, it's the US who's providing security to most of the western world."
If I do what the bully tells me to do, he leaves me alone and attacks other people. That's not security, that's abuse.

Most of the western world and the US have extremely aligned interests when it comes to security. And most of it revolves around making sure that trade routes stay open, and also making sure that instability doesn't end up messing with trade.
