That's the kind of thing that the West did to become the dominant powers in the current world. It's easy to mistake the current system as having been responsible for that. Once you're at the top, you can afford yourself the luxury of acting morally, I suppose, as long as you're the one defining morality... and only while doing that does not go against your "security" or somtimes, making a few bucks, of course.
