Yeah because wanting basic human rights is just something "the West" wants

I'm 99% sure the person you are replying to was saying that tongue in cheek / sarcastically.
Of course not, but The West (NATO and its allies) uses those excuses to support coups, dictatorships and regime changes that benefit American companies. The objective is to plunder the country of its natural resources, and control it politically and militarly. Do you think the west gives a flying fuck about human rights? Do you see protests erupting in Saudi Arabia or Dubai or other western allies? They dont care about human rights, they care about stealing and controlling the resources of another nation.
You don’t see protests in Dubai and Saudi Arabia because these countries are (compared to Iran) really rich and liberal
Saudia Arabia liberal? The place where they execute reporters and punish homosexuality?
