Much of my older research tracked family fortunes and so many times deep pocket profiteers are on both sides of conflict. Our generic history sources rarely teach us the critical elements. The Forbes clan has deep ties to China opium trade that are rarely noted, nor Chamber of Commerce and DJIA notables operating there for over a century. I can't resist adding ties to toxic history and blue blood titans when the rare opportunity pops up.
