Yes, these are all good points and completely true. Westerners have been exporting their own morals onto other countries since the dawn of the Age of Exploration. I don't think this tendency is necessarily bad in and of itself, since it is a natural human instinct to convince your neighbors to share your morality. But the intellectual dishonesty and self-contradiction you mentioned is indeed very insidious. If you're going to go on a moral crusade, then be upfront and talk about it honestly; don't try to hide it underneath a cover. I'm not super familiar with this topic, but apparently this phenomenon happens quite frequently in African countries as well, where struggling African governments, which would prefer to build bridges and hospitals, are instead economically compelled to address moral issues that are dictated to them by westerners.
