I was having similar thoughts. A distant life lost, shown as a mere statistic, a tally in the competitive activity.

The propagators need us to switch out of humane thinking, switch empathy off, regard both sides actions as justifiable.

Thanks William, I find this war extremely disturbing coming after so much trauma in Ukraine and Gaza -

Yes, and so frustrating. The personal agenda of leaders, their seemingly not knowing, nor particularly caring, very much about outcomes other than their own power.

I suspect that Trump might have been partially triggered by his own commitment or assurance issued to the people of Iran.

The lack of empathy in the Leaders is shocking and disturbing. What happened to their humanity?
