It's like going to war except instead of shooting and bombing people you give them food, healthcare, help them build houses, mentor their government and get the country back on it's feet....It's also good how they won't shoot back at you and blow you up.

That would be nice, but once the peace keeping force left, the same warlords would be greedy again and start doing the same thing just in a nicer, rebuilt place.
