>but this was not an act of war against Merck, which BTW isn't a country,

Its an insurance policy...an act of war is a limitation on coverage.

No one is saying an act of war was specifically committed against Merck. Merck was damaged, filed a claim with its insurance and the insurer denied coverage because the damage was the result of an act of war (that has nothing to do with Merck being a county or the attack being directed at Merck).
