In 1986, the US bombed Tripoli and Benghazi, in retaliation for Libyan support of terrorism. In retaliation for that, Libya fired two Scud missiles at the US coast Guard LORAN station at Lampedusa, Italy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LORAN-C_transmitter_Lampedusa
Now...what if the US (or Italy) considered that an act of war? What if one or the other invoked Article 5 of the NATO treaty? What would happen then?
