if the AI does something bad to you, whose attitude does it hurt?

In a recent game my ally, Hiawatha, tried to put spies in my country and I caught him 3 times. He was still gracious I think. Does this make me annoyed towards him? Does your civ have an attitude towards other civs? It angered me because if I did the same to him we'd have very bad relations.

No, no attitudes for the human player; after all, you can keep track of it yourself.

You're free to declare war, though;

just wait for all your deals to expire and you can do it without ruining your rep.

I wish there was a way to tell the AI after he's done something bad to you, "What you did really pissed me off. The only reason I'm not nuking you is because we're good friends."

I'm sure the US and the USSR have exchanged that quote many times...

I think that this is a finer point of diplomacy. There have been many times I have wanted to tell the Ai "If you settle by that iron I'm coming after you!" I just don't see that the AI would have the capibility of evaluating some of the more subtle facets of relationships. If it could though, that would be very cool.
