MilitaryTimes.com on Sunday reported that California-based security firm HALO Corp. will incorporate training to fight the undead during its Oct. 29 to Nov. 2 Counter-Terrorism Summit expected to draw 1,000 military personnel, law enforcement officials, medical experts and government workers to the 44-acre Paradise Point resort island in San Diego’s Mission Bay.

they are using the zombies excuse as a diversion!!!!
its possibly an exercise to de-humanise the soldiers/mercenaries into being able to pull the trigger...
train em for zombies...
spray some sort of bio-agent on the unruly population that makes them sluggish and unable to speak
social unrest by real people then is passed off as the "real deal zombie apocalypse"
making murder of fellow citizens like a recent zombie video game and "much fun"

The question is not whether zombies exist.

A modified version of rabies that was fast acting would be plenty enough to cause zombie like effects. Scary? You bet. Plausible? Not really. Although I think a zombie outbreak would be one heck of a party, I dont think its ever going to happen.

They are fighting Humans, not "Zombies", they just don't want to admit it and show the nation that they are preparing to take out their own citizens when the real collapse happens.

Yet, they're fighting humans in every other scenario they have there (well, maybe not so much the cyber-security parts) and don't try to hide it at all. How does that make sense?
Seeing as how nobody else has done it, here's Halo's little promo video for the program:
They don't mention zombies, but they do mention additional "surprises".
I'd say the zombie thing is Halloween fun for security types.
