 No state has morals.
History is the proof.
At any time the state will sacrifice any follower for it's own agenda.
The same as any cult.

If you believe in any state, you are part of a cult.

 On the contrary, the state has the morals of the people it employes.

For the most part, that morality can be summarised as "whatever keeps me in the job (for at least 4 more years)".
