Theatre
The theatre of war
Is two steps from your chair.
You watch it on the screen,
You calculate the odds
While weighing up the form
And placing your next bet
On where the bombs will fall.
Those in the know predict
That Kyiv is odds-on.
The news comes through at six:
Bulls-eye! Time to collect,
For your holiday cruise.
But please, gamble responsibly!

I think you put it well, Uilleam. Since one can bet on anything now, why not bet on war? I'm sure someone is doing it, not very successfully perhaps.
And many thanks to Nigel, John, Purplemoon, Pete and Rudyard.
