Paying a few extra bucks to fuel your wasteful binge consumption is very different than literal death and destruction.

Americans are truly obnoxious and out of touch from reality.

High diesel prices are not equivalent to getting your cities bombed every day. Imagine going to work but having to divert because some country bombed the highway. That is the reality for countries usually at war with the US, but not for the US, where you have the liberty to go like, "Hey, this war is kind of bad" after watching diesel prices, not after watching Uncle Jamal's head get blown off.
