When the Pope was being decided in the conclave, people were betting on it. When there was hurricane or typhoons, people would also bet on the casualties. Have you seen people bet on about the war between Iran and Israel and now USA too?

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?

Watching the war on TV or through other channels brings so much pain. Seeing families cry over dead or wounded relatives is a sight that can be heartbreaking. 

I would never bet on any conflict or war, regardless of how profitable it might seem. I am also not a fan of betting on religious activities because it might be offensive to believers. I am a sports bettor, but I also don't bet on violent sports. Gambling should be for entertainment and not to derive pleasure from people's pain.
No doubt its always hurt badly peoples facing serious troubles while they are watching their houses and business places are changing into ruins while kids are always faced the worst scene which no one can delete from their memories for rest of life.
Even I am living away from this, but I watched few kids were crying while they were watching scenes on television and other social media channels going for betting on things like these has never been allowed but sadly now its can't be stopped because they are looking for increase into their money which is more important for them instead of humanity.
Many are always in search of fun and enjoyment even they are also feeling its not good deal, but they are looking for their own sack which is really terrible things now happening around us.
