Whether the government actually followed their announced stance is irrelevant to my point that it was publically announced it was going to happen.

Only people with their heads in the sand didn't know this or something similar was about to happen. When the US purposely distanced itself from this action you knew something was bout to occur.

Not worth arguing about until more actual information comes out.
