Morality of nations is only the sum of that of individuals. A nation is not a super consciousness. That said, I do believe our form of government is a far better moral construct than the far majority that have ever existed. The rule of law, as opposed to that of arbitary totalitarianism, holds individuals to higher standards of behavior in their actions towards others.

onetime - great post. Our perceptions on this matter are quite congruent.
