No, because no man is an island, and a country should also respect his place in the bigger span of things and not just microscopically. If a country believes what it does is moral, when in reality it can be dangerous to the rest of the world, then it is not a moral thing at all. Morality is an elusive and dangerous word, can be used and bended according to the times and ideologies.

No--moral principals can vary from person to person, and for the government to determine what measures can be taken to legislate morality gets a little to close to state sponsorship of religion for me. The Constitution guarantees certain rights to us, and the government has no right to infringe on those, even if it is for a "moral" cause. The end does not justify the means.

If you are asking do countries make mistakes. The answer is yes. They are called crimes against humanity.
