I'm less certain about this concept of inter-cultural interference.
Germany and the National Socialist movement is a tremendously bad example, since the matter only arose once the world war started.
Instead I would recognise certain basic rights exist in all people. So does the Un. Those of you who think the Chinese govt. need the assistance of the UN (or even their "orders") to carry out brutal assaults on women need to examine the organisation they accuse.
Forced abortion is wrong simplicitor. So is forced sterilisation and lobotomisation. These are crimes against humanity.
The key is consent. In all things this is the fulcrum of morality for me. People must be protected.
And phred, china was there long before, but not in the form we know now. They are using a system derived from a German, living in England during the nineteenth century, which was implemented by a chinese person who was trained by a Russian organisation headed by a Georgian.
Nations are not independent from one another, we're all part of humanity last I checked.
