Every society has its own inherent or evolving moral values. Sometimes, these moral values are linked with the religious standards or cultural sentiments of the society. Surprisingly, many societies have no benchmark for practicing moral behavior. Many societies excel at criticizing the culture of other societies when they lack a very clear understanding of their moral values. This is the main reason why values that were once considered vital are disregarded now.
The shift in values in religious-biased moral grounds of the K.S., with the building of ultra-conservative to secular society led the to compromise on some of its religious values to bring economic growth and prosperity, and to become a most modern and attractive place in the world. However, such transitions often face obstacles, hurdles, and backlash from within their people. Yet, the transition seems to be functioning smoothly and has received positive feedback from people across the world, including the Neom project.
Similarly, the Western Society, which claims the Champion of Human Rights, has been facing criticism from its very own people. Since it has made righteous actions of Israelis of self-defense, in which they have killed thousands of people, including innocent children and women. Without a shadow of a doubt, such actions came under the ambit of a war crime. Knowingly, Hamas's actions amounted to self-defense as their piece of land has been under control by the Israeli government through building fences all around Gaza and taking over administrative control.
Similarly, human rights champions have chosen a path that has changed the trajectory of moral values as they used to highlight to differentiate them from developing countries. It is a moral value, neither a threat nor a dominant strategy, that led Muslim nations to surrender their claim to the Muslim Unity, especially members of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), in fear of restrained relationship with those countries that have strong economic ties.
In a nutshell, the concept of nation-state has been prevalent in international relationships, in which each state has to ensure to protect its interests. Violation of Human rights has become a tool to malign their alienated countries and justify their military actions as the US and UK have done in Iraq.
