Sometimes betting is just ridiculous. Sometimes it is complete nonsense.

[Crypt0Gore]

People can be creepy at times, I am sure that these gamblers betting on war are rich people, my grand father once told me that when the rich people have everything life gets boring for them and they look for crazy ways to get entertained, even if its inappropriate.

I can never place bet something that has to do with losing lives, it is so inappropriate and if I have the power I will get such platform closed down, I am not surprised though, there are too many creepy people living in the world today.

I feel pity for those who are caught in this ongoing war, they can't even flee their country into another, everyday people are losing their lives in both country, it is very sad and disheartening.

If I'm not mistaken previously there was a casino that provided bets on the pandemic how many would die and so on, the good thing was it was a new gambling site so it didn't get enough attention and now the gambling site has died without leaving a trace and is actually betting on tragedy humanity is unreasonable, and casinos should never provide that even if there is a request, and if there is a casino that does that, it is better to leave the casino or not bet at all because taking advantage of human tragedies such as war is very inhumane.

User Eternad has mentioned Futuur. They can be the one who might actually have that kind of betting option. I was not familiar with Futuur, but after checking it, it really looks that we dont have to wait long until people would make and other would participate in absurd betting. If I understood concept of Futuur platform, anyone can create any prediction and bet on it. I believe they had sort of a monitoring and specific ToS, but with platform like that, war outcome betting isnt much unreal.

That's really a ridiculous bet, how can a human tragedy be made into a bet just to get a win, it's like you are risking human lives for your own interests indirectly. Yes thank goodness if indeed the site has now completely disappeared, honestly I don't know if there are sites that bet on humanity during the pandemic but the main focus is that the betting option is really absurd and I have been very disgraced.

I understand that maybe casinos are smart enough to take advantage of every opportunity in various circumstances, but on the other hand such bets are really absurd, and I hope no more casinos will come up with such ridiculous betting ideas. But on the other hand it is indeed beyond our control, we as ordinary people cannot fully restrict their actions because they have a lot of money to build such casino sites even though it makes no sense, and maybe it comes back to us, as you said it's better not to participate in betting and I'm sure for people who have common sense will not follow such bets.

Things that should not be used as betting material in my opinion are about someone's life and I don't think it's a fun bet even though maybe some people want it, it could be that they have an abnormality in themselves so they need something different from other gambling, I I've also often heard of strange bets like that, but I've never bet on them and there's no reasonable reason for me to bet.

Moreover, why should we bet on something that we think is something that is not worth betting on, honestly I also don't expect casinos to add strange bets like that because it's not a joke that should be used as a new betting material on gambling sites, I don't even think so. would like it, especially other people, who in my opinion also don't like such extreme bets.

I checked the futuur website and discovered that one can gamble with almost everything you can think of in as much as it can be predicted and many people are interested in it. There is even a section for predictions of events in the cryptospace. Talking about predictions of war there are predictions on Russia and Ukraine war titled: Will Russia take Kiev by force by the end of 2022?. I suspect that those who have accounts with futuur can start any prediction on any event and the gambling platform has a Curaçao Gaming license and also has a physical office there. The terms of service will be so loose or free that people would have the opportunity to gamble on events that people might see as forbidden.

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.

This was a joke but I also think casino will soon start having options to bet on events like this. It's sad but the casino will always give the people what they want and if some gamblers starts requesting for betting on events like this and it doesn't go against any laws, we might start seeing them. On the dark web I think we also have platforms like this that allows individuals to bet on outcome of wars between countries, diseases outbreak and all sort of events.

Gamblers don't care about what they're gambling on, what they're after is the profits they'll make because most individual that gamble don't watch the league they gamble in or are familiar with the sports, they just gamble because they see an opportunity to make money and what to take it and that's why we have many gamblers losing because they don't understand what they're doing but only doing it for the fun or they feel they can win.

[0t3p0t]

If this happens, I think this is a game of rich gamblers or to make it short a leaders game. Fake or not, I don't think gamblers care about anything as long as they can place a bet on something they will surely jump-in just like national elections, animal fights and other inhumane gambling activities. All of it are inappropriate and should be penalized by law.

[letteredhub]

From joke and rumors to reality the next thing is that it will be taken as a normal event and some who will be proponents will find words to justify the disturbing and irrational betting option like war. Any casino that can boldly create a space for such for gamblers to place bet predictions on it is just an enemy of the remaining peace we are all enjoying In this disturbing world. I hope and pray as a gambler this doesn't take center stage in my time, if it's to be then should be when am long gone. Hallelujah!

Do you really think that it could be possible? Do you really think that there would really be that demand on that? Do you really think that government would really be that allowing for that kind of betting which is really that correlated or connected to war? I dont think so. Also, just like the rest been saying that its never been that ethical on having one. So if this one had been pushed through, then what would be the betting type or options could be? Like who would be the one will win the war? How many casualties or people who die on the said period? etc. etc...

With those kind of betting lines, then you do really think that people who are in their right minds will really be that loving on making out some bet?
Even with those gambling addicts would really be having doubt on doing so yet there's still humanity on  their hearts and this is something
which isnt really that ethical.

Even thought it was definitely terrible, it is also real that it did happen. I mean the sadness is true, there are some places that literally has "who will win Ukraine or Russia" bets, and you do not really have clear winning lines neither, like how do you know who won? That is not really a case of winning or lose, it is a different situation.

This is why it is quite important to realize that you are not going to end up with morality or ethics when you are talking about neither casinos nor gamblers who bet on these. You should just simply consider it a bit different and it could be something that will be acceptable in the sense that we just have to accept that these people and these type of situations do exists.

I don't bet and will discourage people from betting between two countries about war, it's very insensitive, and war is something you don't include betting on because human lives are at stake here, and I don't think any casinos will include this bet, they could lose their license and they will receive massive criticism for being insensitive, they can think of any outrageous kind of bets but never bets about lives especially on war where the victims are innocent children and elders

[btc_angela]

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.

It's photoshop, but even in the future, I don't think that sports bookies are going to list this kind of bets in their platform because they know that whole gaming industry will come after them. And for the photoshop, yeah, maybe it was just a joke or something, but it's up to the person who's going to read it, for sure there will be a lot of us here going to be hurt with this kind of jokes.

Or maybe some who will just take it as it is because they know that this is fake and we should take it seriously.

[bakasabo]

After observing how many here did not understand that this was just another cruel internet joke, it makes easy to understand why people are so easy to be manipulated. It also shows how greedy and barbaric people are. They find it normal to earn on peoples tragedies, and they are ready to use any method do earn. War betting was just an example. People could use less absurd, yet still inappropriate betting variants. Like placing bet if there will be storm this winter, that will destroys houses. Tragedy for someone, profit for other.

Moral aspects must be taken into account, bets on any events that involve human deaths should be prohibited and punishable by law. Each casino has a huge variety of events for every taste and I don’t see the point in adding wars, pandemics, or anything else of that kind. It is clear that the post on Instagram was a photoshop, but nothing happens for nothing, human stupidity knows no bounds and I am sure that if the bookmaker added the same event to the line, then there would be those who would make bets on these event.

SOMEBODY PHOTOSHOPPED THIS. THIS IS NOT A REAL BET.

Of course, it will be impossible for a casino to create a bet about a war between Hamas and Israel, even though casinos are profit-oriented there's no way they are going to monetize wars, they are going to lose support they are going to lose their license that could spell the end of their existence.

Casinos cannot be involved with killings and exploitation, what we are seeing now in the war between Israel and Hamas is just full of atrocities and inhumane we have seen children and innocent civilians under the crumbles of buildings and we cannot just stomach these scenarios, much more creating betting on this.

Can you see it happening? The thought of betting on war is not only disgusting, its also morally wrong. Even the idea itself raises moral and human questions. Bets on how the war will end? Any deaths? There is no doubt that it is a dark road. Still, lets not be naive; morals are different in different parts of the world. The picture could be fake or edited, but its not impossible that this kind of illegal betting does exist and is popular with a small group of ethically ambiguous super-rich people.

Some people have moral limits that are both fuzzy and open to change. Everything in their world costs something, even pain. That thought is scary, isnt it? Some people who are addicted to gambling might not want to make such bets. What about people who see war as nothing more than a way to make money and have no morals? The bad parts of people cant be ignored. In plain sight, they are always there, hidden.

Edit:
As people did not bother real whole post, I will make it more visible

SOMEBODY PHOTOSHOPPED THIS. THIS IS NOT A REAL BET.

the real problem with the "internet" is that now anyone can express an opinion.
I'm sure that somewhere, unintelligent people find this thing even funny without realizing the drama they are joking about.

In this case I feel sorry for the betting company that finds itself associated with such a violent&sad message.

[Rockstarguy]

I find it inappropriate to offer a betting option on the winner of a war; it's just edited, and the screenshot isn't even clear. Regarding other betting options, such as elections, Oscar winners, or music event winners, I don't see anything wrong with that, as people enjoy betting on various events.

What I believe is that a regulated casino won't joke around on serious matters, especially those that involve the lives of many.

I don't think this is appropriate to do, it is not everything that must involve gambling.  War is not a game,  it is a critical event when people are really hurt and going through difficult time irrespective of the country that is leading in the war. I think casino starts playing bet on war it can make the fight to be even worse because people from the countries where the war is taking place may just want to join the fight just to make profit from their bets, I don't think war should be something anybody will be involve of, war should be a situation that people should pray for peace to put a stop to it.

War will only bring suffering to many people and can spread to other countries. There will definitely be many casualties and it is not appropriate to bet on war. In fact, we should all support the war to stop immediately so that there are no more victims on both sides. If casinos make bets like that, it's not a good idea because it could hurt the hearts of people from both conflicting countries even though they don't know anything about the causes of the war. It would be better for casinos to place bets on other things and not bets on war and casinos should not get involved in war affairs by making such bets.
