That could be a cover story though. Attack, but offically say we didn't. Confuse the hell out of them. Don't let them know what we're planning (thats a basic principal of war).
We did say we never crossed into Cambodia during the Vietnam War, but now we say, "Hell, yeah. We were in there all the time".
I personally don't know what to think about that. Cruise Missles maybe from US warships and submarines in the Persian Gulf, but you can't tell. We won't know for awhile.
Still, there has been all sorts of crazy talk, like a truck loaded full of explosives for the Washington Bridge in New York City, but that turned out to be untrue in about an hour too.
I'm guessing that it probably is the civil war, but it still could be US cruise missles too.
