People's moral framework can be different. Is is surprising that not everyone find this a moral dilemma ?

I think you'd have to be psychopathic and lacking the ability to empathize to not consider this to be a moral dilemma.

Empathy is exactly the wrong emotion to have here. Empathy doesn't work at scale, just makes you pity people that are like you more than people unlike you. Regardless of objective relative hardship.

Do soldiers have to be psychopaths to kill their enemy in a war? It's only a moral dilemma until you've made your choice. Fundamentally, the world is still kill or be killed. It's just hidden behind many layers of abstractions.

Maybe but still not everyone is the same, is it surprising that not everyone has the same level of empathy or even same definition of empathy ?
