Murder is never ok (I assume you were sarcastic) but the difference is that here in the west, 'we' can do something about it and 'we' don't tolerate it.
In the east, what 'we' think is irrelevant because whatever they do up there is out of our control.
I absolutely despise the fact that women have no rights in countries like Iran, and that being raped can be a hanging offense (or was it stoning?). But it would be silly to say that I don't tolerate it. I am in no position to make a decision to be tolerant.
