Cupich Calls Out War as Entertainment, Urges Public to See Humanity First

Cardinal Blase Cupich, Archbishop of Chicago, released a 'Call to Conscience' condemning the way the Iran conflict is portrayed online, including a White House video that mixed war footage with action-movie clips. He warns that the shrinking distance between battlefield and living room has led to war being treated as entertainment, desensitizing the public and eroding humanity, and urges people to see Iran as a people rather than a spectacle while calling for restraint to prevent further escalation.
