That's it. That's the actual headline. Nothing I say can make it more absurd than it actually is.
The war-game participants include representatives from investment banks, in addition to current and former executives from pharmaceutical companies and retired four-star US military officers. The committee declined to name the financial executives who will participate.
My read is that the MIC capitalists are very on board with war against China (or at least ratcheting up tensions) but the Industrial and Finance Capitalists are not. This might be an attempt to get the latter groups on board.
