And then you get the problem ... where is the moral dividing line?
Well, as morals are inherently subjective/intersubjective I'd say that there very much isn't a line, there's a great big blurry grey area.

If a country seriously believes that life begins at conception sees a neighbouring country practicing abortion (and so, by country A's morals, is killing thousands of human lives) is it ok for Country A to invade Country B?

Ok by who's standards?

I can't answer that aside from the "if I point at it and say I think it's valid, then it's valid" level of decision making.
Me either. I'm ok with that though.
