"Ok we're bombing schools but have you thought of all the people getting cancer?".

It maybe true, but it truely shows where your priorities are. Dead civilians? No body cares. Putin making a bit more money? Real shit.

Did I say nobody cares or that it is not important? No, I did not. The topic being discussed is "beneficiaries of the Iran War". It is interesting that you don't take issue with the priorities of the OP, who is falsely defending Russia, but instead take issue with my priorities, when I state that the OP is factually incorrect, despite the fact that the OP is the one who has chosen to speak about beneficiaries of the war instead of the tragedies of civilian deaths.

His defense is factually incorrect.

Since you'd like to open the discussion up to topics beyond the beneficiaries of the war in Iran:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russo-Ukrainian_war_(2022%E2%80%93present)

An investigation by AP from the end of 2022 estimated up to 75,000 killed civilians in the Mariupol area alone.

The Russian military and authorities have been responsible for deliberate attacks against civilian targets (including strikes on hospitals and on the energy grid), massacres of civilians, abduction and torture of civilians, sexual violence, forced deportation of civilians, and torture and murder of Ukrainian prisoners of war.
