Here you go: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_values
Since the wikipedia page also mentions individual liberty and rule of law, let me also link to this topic:

Destroying buildings due to being booby trapped by Hamas; booby trapping I seem to recall was mentioned earlier in this thread as a war crime.
Any evidence of that, that is not Israeli 'evidence'?

I haven't spent any time investigating, because I believe that privacy is nonexistent, but my Samsung phones have always enabled by default, a backup of everything I have (including the removable uSD cards) to a server in South Korea.
Even when I've disabled this behavior, it seems to persist at some level.
I live in the US BTW.

Actually AppCloud is a software that can install apps remotely. Not bloatware. It is spyware. And the location of the developers (example, being in China) would make it a security concern. And Israel is a security concern for countries that don't recognize Israel.
Why are there so many people in this thread lying about this being bloatware? It's alarming

> an ally of the west Remind me again of all the help Israel has provided the USA/the West that they are considered such a great (the greatest, in fact) ally?

I wish people could just state the transparently documented historical truth, Israel is a US ally because Truman and enough other backers wanted to create a state for Holocaust survivors. The leadership and majority of voters in the US have been true believers in Zionism (in one of its many versions) for generations, and supports Israel by essentially the same logic that Israelis support Israel by. This existed as a state of affairs with almost no opposition at any level until a couple years ago when it came into conflict with another basic belief (about being close enough to just in the cause and method of war that most people could somewhat believe it).
Edited. This seems to be according worldwide despite the article saying it's in West Asia and Africa.
