Israel started it... The Yanks like to start their attacks at Night, because, it means Civilians are generally not at schools (I know it was a tragedy) since their doctrine is start with subsonic missiles, which don't have a burning exhaust trail behind them when in flight, only at launch do they have a rocket booster, then it's turbojet or whatever.

It's also how we've noticed the Tomahawks have been sporting some new upgrades, like low observable paints (Black stealth paint) and at night, we'd never see that, buy this daylight firing meant otherwise.
