why is it I can run spy ops, espinoage etc. on someone, they can continually attack me but: GDI authority will not let you attack this opponent! oh and I was able to declare war on the country too.

Can someone explain what the rules for GDI are here?
and its not as stated above, as the country grabbed ne 24 times in 2 days, and was 8 times my nw before the last 8 hits done today.
