The basic rights we take for granted are based on our beliefs or what we are forced to accept by our so called leaders. Other countries are entitled to their own beliefs and we have no right to try and impose our values on them. If "western values" were anything to brag about, then maybe we could comment but the behaviour of the west is as despicable as many other non-western countries and itrying to enforce our values is a significant contributor conflict in the world.
