No one has attempted to explain the co-existence of such incredible human misery and suffering as depicted in the OP and a benevolent G_d, yet. Much religious doctrine and philosophy attempts to rationalize this discord, but I've yet to read or hear any that satisfies me completely.

Some believe this was a motivating factor in Iraq. Iran has the 2nd largest reserves of oil and natural gas in the world.

Wait; I forgot the pic. What an aspirational pic and a scenic backdrop. Vogue. (These Candy Brothers look like the primates from the Geico Commercials - look at those ears.)
