and so the missile was shot down." (whether it was ours or theirs).
This is a much more likely scenario in reality. However, governments are not required to tell their peoples the truth about anything. Just look at the John F. Kennedy assassination for example. Because of the lies then only about 11% of the American people have faith in our government since then. Everyone in the U.S. knows we were lied to then. Why should we believe anything they say now?
After the Kennedy assassinations and Martin Luther King's assassination there is really no reason at all to believe anything the government says at all ever. If you have seen "The Post" after the "Pentagon Papers" came out there was even more reason not to believe anything anyone says in government after they lied and killed 50,000 of our boys for nothing.
The Post is how the Washington Post risked everything (Jail, bankruptcy everything) to bring the truth to the American people. Daniel Ellesberg's papers were what they were after in "Watergate" which eventually bought down Nixon and forced him to resign from the presidency.
