I didn't see complete and total blame of the war being laid on the humans
because of their spying. I did see Adama insinuating that belief, which
goes a long way toward explaining his guilt over the entire series so
far, but I didn't see some definite statement by TPTB. Roslin noted how
it could have been numerous other events that triggered the war, and we
still have no idea what the cylons were thinking before attacking.
I think there has been a lot of projection recently of current events
onto BSG. That's understandable to a certain extent, but it's also a
risky avenue to take, especially without knowing the intentions of the
writers. Goldberg makes all these assumptions about what Moore and co.
were thinking while writing this ep, yet has no proof beyond his own
interpretation to back up his claims.
