But there is a certain set of common values ...

The USA grants citizenship (with all the rights which that entitles) to any human born on its soil .

Israel accepts a human born anywhere on the planet of a Jewish mother as an Israeli citizen, and denies that same citizenship to non-Jewish, non-Israeli children regardless of where they were born.

The first rule is part of the US value that all men are created equal. The second rule is part of the Israeli value that says Jews are different from non-Jews. There's not much "common" in those two understandings of humanity.
