    Not by your strict moralist idea of Western.

    Greek philosophers did not describe ancient Greek society.... they criticized it.

    Eastern Europe is also a part of Western Civilization. There may be some inner-cultural & political division between eastern and western Europe, but eastern Europe is still Western or ‘Occidental’. The same way there are inner-cultural & political differences between Japan and China, they are still both safely categorized as Eastern or ‘Oriental’ cultures.
