      Even if they have payable SLA on this, most SLAs have Acts of God and Acts of War exemption.

        But do they have Act of Special Operation exemptions?

          I&#x27;m going to reword my Terms of Service this second to add &quot;any military operation&quot; next to &quot;acts of war&quot;. But I&#x27;m sure we&#x27;ll then have to demonstrate whether paramilitary are assimilated to the military.

            I was just reading an insurance policy and it said &quot;any war, including undeclared wars&quot;

            The insurers always know how to weasel out of it.
