Well I insert that the world of gambling is getting ridiculous and extremely wild but meh betting on a war will be very insane and what would be the criteria for judging the war results and who will be officiating a war match that has to do with guns and explosives? I never thought it wrong about betting on elections and other stuffs but betting on war isn’t a nice idea as it seems it’s encouraging killing which I’m sure we actually don’t desire.
I hope the image is actually photoshopped else it’s not a funny one.

People who lack morality are reprehensible, they can use any problem to make money, I see this as an inhumane act.

War bets through gambling are defamatory to human rights laws, but more clearly, the internet space is not always clean because these dirty things pollute life itself and it appears in many different forms.

Regarding betting, I don't know where the limits of the jokes are because I myself once joined FTX to bet on the results of the US presidential election, but in terms of competing for the common good, not For either side, I know that it is also a lack of respect.

Jokes are made for fun, but I think this one is not funny at all. Reputable casinos do not entertain this kind of bet as it could only offend those countries involved and might trigger for another war. And obviously no one wins in a war, as both countries have put their people in danger.

However, if you do this kind of bet between your friends, this could be possible but I still see it very inappropriate when people bet on war while seeing those countries affected still struggling to survive.
it's possible to place bets on election results, Oscar winners, music show winners, it still makes sense, but if it involves someone's life or betting on war, it's an unnatural and inhumane bet. If we want to get a chance, we can make a profit in other bets, but don't bet on the outcome of winning the war, as fellow human beings, we must have empathy, not just to make a profit from other people's suffering, for example, if you bet on Israel and you win, then you are happy, isn't that no worse than the Israelis who have killed a lot? indirectly supports Israel in this battle, this is really not good and hopefully casinos are not interested in opening betting services like this.

This is not the first time bookies have provided a place for betting on war, as far as I know on the Ukrainian and Russian wars there were several bookies that provided bets on who would win or how many casualties would fall on either side. This is disgusting, how could someone have the heart to post a bet like this. What if this happened to them? Don't they have a little heart to grieve? or at least just ignore it if they don't think it's important.
I think the bookies should take action against this, because it's disgusting how these fools bet on something that really shouldn't be bet on.
If this isn't the first time bookies have provided slots to bet on wars, then I think this world entirely is the most atrocious place to live in... honestly. How could several sportmakers use
Its fake, so theres no point on telling or making out discussions about this. There would be no bookmakers would really be including this one out and just like the rest been saying that its never been that ethical.
Checking out previous replies as if they do really think that this one is really that real, no legit bookies will really be that making this kind of betting and it would never be.
If this one turns out to be that real then i dont see for it to be that ethical on betting on it, you are making bets on someones lives? Its never been that good in feeling.

First of, hope you do actually realize that the image was just Photoshoped and not actually real. And yeah it would be the most ridiculous thing of bookies and casinos were to make available options for player to bet on war, lol, I have never heard of anything like this and it sound kinda funny that someone's mind could even conceive such an idea. Indeed people are full of surprises lol
Totally funny and it doesnt really make any sense and in the first place, for sure lots of people had checked out and and thought that it was actually for real. Cheesy

There's absolutely nothing to say about this since I'm not even a party of any form of gambling; how do people feel when others are suffering??..Does it really make sense to feel very comfortable and make jest of situations like that?

Betting on war? How can bookies be providing service for their customers to be betting on war. Betting on who to win election, who to be the next miss world and something entertaining is better, but betting on war is just not appropriate and not entertaining at all. But people are people, they like to be full of something surprising.

I understand that this is fake and was made for a joke. But some people dont know what jokes should be ended or are inappropriate... However, since some casinos have "special" section in sports betting (why this is in sports betting anyway?), and allow to place bets on election outcome, or on Oscar winner, or on music event like Eurovision, I would not be much surprised that in 5 or 10 years we would really have such absurd betting options. And most important what scares me, that casinos will hide behind "there is a demand on such betting" and there really be people who will find this demanding.
Welp. You underestimate the lengths at which most people would go to receive their 5 minutes of internet fame. and this is no different. No matter how sensitive a topic is, as long as it's going to cause uproar in the internet and they'd get clicks for it they'd do it. Just take American School Shootings for example. This is a massive cultural problem that's caused more deaths than what America knows what to do with, and yet we see this being humored and sometimes even glorified in social media.

What I would suggest people do is just avoid giving these people the time of day. Whether you react in accordance or you show your dismay through commenting or angry-reacting their posts, that would count as an impression to them and at the end of the day, you're just going to feed their inflated sense of ego.

I still really remember when the war between Russia vs Ukraine happened, there were jokes about bets like this and to be honest making the war a bet was a bad joke, there were a lot of human lives that died, really only wild animals would make the lives of those who died as a joke bet. Currently the war between Israel vs Palestine will happen again because the 4 day ceasefire agreement has passed, there will definitely be more casualties and if there are people who make the war between these two countries a bet then they are lower than animals.

Betting on war never makes sense at all. And what kind of casino that is expected to deal on this, if there's any then that could be an illegal one. And those who probably bet on this have no sense of right thinking as they chose to make fun of the event despite of how many people that have lost their lives on a war.

No gambling site is supposed to have this kind of betting option on their gambling site. How will people gamble on countries fighting war? It sounds crazy to me. I know if this kind of option is available on gambling sites, people will place bets on it, but it’s not making any sense in any way. War is not what we will pray for, people are losing their lives and properties, and we shouldn’t be happy about that. There are just some things that I just think are not supposed to be on gambling sites.
 
I have seen lots of gambling sites giving the option for everyone to gamble on the outcome of an election, which I see as normal, everyone has the right to select a leader, and we have the right to vote for whomever we want during an election, but it’s not making sense to me to see who is going to win or lose a war being implemented on a gambling platform, and gambling sites caught should be punished for implementing that.

I think this is a joke taken too far. It is very inappropriate for them to have done that. I understand that who ever did it was just doing it for fun but there are things that ought not to be taken for granted as this. Things of this nature are very much sensitive and as such should not be taken for granted.  
War is not what people wish to experience again in their lives and here someone is making jokes out if it. Do they know the thousands of lives already lost as a result of the war to be making such fun on betting for who will win a war or whatever the case may be. This is absurd and a no no for me.

Personally I see this as unacceptable, why would the bookies make a bet out of war, something that is traumatizing some other people, causing them to grieve and here is another making money off it , except it's photoshopped and not real, such shouldn't be tolerated by regulatory bodies of the country where such bookies are found.

The out come of election, Oscar and other entertainment related awards could be put up for gambling by bookies and that could be considered fine but war is out of place because making money off people's pain sounds inhumane. I know reputable casinos knowing how much trouble such can causes, will never put up such in their casinos for people to bet on because it will definitely tell on their reputation.

Anything that will attract attention to a casino and increase their revenue is what they are going to do. This is not new, and, providing there is no law which stands against such, they will continue doing it and many other casinos will buy the idea. 
 
In my country there is a local and international in-house-competition, they normally use to host on a yearly basis, a lot of companies including bet companies have been part of their sponsorship. This is just a competition, where housemates are inside and do all sorts of in-house-games and all that. During this period most of our local bet companies add this to their Prediction-option and allow users to predict, who will be the winner at the end of the day. 
 
But this warside is really out of it. That could bring some legal action to the casinos who add that, as it will look as if they are in support of war and they also be accused of sponsoring a side of the country in war with each other.

Have you ever thought that there is a war bet and we don't know how to make an analysis of the bet? Even though this is just a joke, I don't think it will ever happen in betting because betting on war is unethical, and we take pleasure in the suffering of people who die.
Maybe the bet still makes sense with the election betting, Miss World and we will find out from the side of those who have prepared for this tournament, but my war is impossible, even though you would never do it.

i looked it up on Stake, there is none of this on their list. it's fake.
betting platform knows this is gonna be controversial to list such a thing. presidential candidates are okay or something like oscar awards is fun. even if he meant it as a joke to get followers, it's not morally right to do this regardless of which side he is betting. but damn he is supported by his followers seeing it got a lot of views with 152,431 likes.
That's simply shows how shallow minded people can actually be and although you have checked it and it's false but the possibility of this particular game actually being featured in any casino can't be written off because the human race now is UpTo something else and to even have the thought of this just show how stupid and cruel people can be.

Yes, people would bet on all sorts of crazy stuff. And this didn't start now. Many years ago in the Roman Empire people bet on gladiators to fight to death. Wars should be shocking to anyone. And I will not be surprised if there is a bet for the country where the next pandemic will break out from. I wonder the casinos who give odds for this have no ethical or moral judgement. And people who bet on these types of events are morally depraved too.
we could make huge profits from the bet we thought would never give us winnings. This is one of the reasons why gambling can be ridiculous or purely nonsense. We might make profits from bet we thought we will never make winnings from. All we have to do as a gambler is to keep trying our best for us to make huge profit one day. The people that had been winning jackpot and crashing casinos finance are doing that or reaching that level because of consistency. This is one of the ways for us to profit and make expected winnings without even having the hope.

Because it's ridiculous, that's why we have to make gambling a place that is only for entertainment, the final situation always cannot be completely predicted and as you said, sometimes when we don't expect a win, the win  actually comes by itself, which means we are right. - really lucky that session. On the other hand, you cannot say that gamblers must be able to maximize their gambling so that they can win, this is contrary to what you previously said above, where the conclusion is that the final result is always unpredictable and that means what things we must maximize. while on the other hand, only luck will determine it?

Is there anything else that is quite meaningful and influential that people who win big jackpots do? I think not, I would say that they were really lucky in that  session, on the other hand you said consistency in trying to chase victory, I think that would just be a waste of your time and money, you have to understand what What is meant by the concept of luck in gambling, no matter how often you gamble, if you are not lucky then you lose, so it is better to try to apply lots of limits, that is better.

I thought it was a real one, lol! The first time i do saw it, then i have in mind that on what the f*ck did i just saw? War tab on a betting site? How could they be including this sort of stuff?

These are the questions that do comes up into my mind on first glance but later on then it would really be just that impossible that betting sites will really be that allowing such line
considering that its never been ethical on betting someones lives or people who are dying and people do make out some bets? It is really just that brutal.

It doesnt really make sense on this regard and to the one who had photoshopped it, then i dont see for it to be impossible or simply does have make sense.
It is really just that people around doesnt really like on seeing these type of things specially talking about war, how much about on making bets or wager into it?

Really, sometimes bets can be this ridiculous sometimes. Anything can be bet on, but some situations are special and it is unethical to place any bets on them. I can understand Sportmaker, maybe the bettors wanted it so much and they made it happen, that's why I can't be angry.

I can only say that I was upset when I saw this bet. There were also bettors who placed bets on the Ukrainian-Russian war, they can be really ridiculous sometimes.

I think this is edited? The images is not that clear tho. Betting who is winning in a war is completely ridiculous and insane, you know? there's a lot of lives taken and those kids who doesnt know anything and innocent are suffering to their country. It is very inappropriate to make fun of this as you know that this is a serious matter and it can affect other countries too. What is happening to the world? seems like were living in a cruel world. I understand that It's all about making money, that this is how casino business works but life shouldn't revolve around money, we still have something called Humanity.
Different people has different ways to view an event or something in particular. Of course if we would ask the majority, all of us would say it is a topic we shouldn't make fun about or even bet. It involve lives and struggling of people. However, some people are having low sympathy towards others and we won't be able to do anything about it. The least thing we could do is to either support or avoid betting with such topics if it is outside our interest.

Anything could be gambled about; presidency, and even the weirdest topics we know as long as there are two or more different  biases and opinion, and as long as people behind the differences would be willing to put money on it. That's just how generic gambling is.
