Simulates, not advocates.  The thing you learn by playing
wargames is:

It's A Damn Good Thing This Isn't For Real, As Otherwise I'd
Have Way Too Many "We Regret To Inform You" Letters To
Write.

The other thing you learn is:

Or My Boss Would Have To Write One For Me.

The people I know who are most serious about avoiding war
are the ones who've been out at the sharp end.	Contrast
that with our draft-dodging President, who launches raids to
divert media attention from his Scandal-of-the-Month.
