If yes, do you think it is morally or ethically correct? For me, no. There are real people's lives at stake here. I think it is so tone deaf for people to bet on their lives. What do you think?

I've been following the Iran - Israel war and its so ugly and inhuman you are not human if you can bet and wishing the country that you bet is winning, so many lives have been taken away and so many houses and hospitals have been shattered I cannot stomach betting a true war.
Seeing what's happening on the two countries you'd wish that these leaders have a heart and just talk and discuss on how to resolve the issues.War is what evil men do

I completely agree with you, betting on war is inhumane. It's a way of disrespecting fellow human beings, as many innocent people die because of war. Personally, I hope these countries choose to make peace as soon as possible, they're making their societies bear so much suffering. I don't have much to say to anyone who bets on such wars, it's crucial to have morals, even if the bet offers huge profits. America is reported to have joined in attacking Iran, this will trigger a bigger war, and of course will increase the number of people dying.

The same thought here.
IMO, it seems unethical to bet on a war when we know that people are being killed in it.
Do you guys also place bets like this?
Do you really want to earn money from the suffering of those affected by the war?
I think it's against my morals, and that's not right. I'd rather choose to gamble on sports betting and fight against the house edge than make a profit from the suffering of others due to war.

If you still choose to bet on an event like this, a war, it raises a question for me. Are you even human?
