If Western culture has embraced genocide then can you please demonstrate how India and China, both non-Western cultures, have acted to condemn and prevent genocide? Many thanks.

You make the mistake of thinking the US represents Western culture, or whatever people believe Western culture might be. It does not.

Western culture is essentially the modern world and it likes to think it is the democratic world but that is no more than variations on the theme of democracy. The US is not a democracy but a Constitutional Republic and its system of the Electoral College. There are democratic aspects to the US but it is hardly representative of the Western democratic world.
