Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

They knew OF the bugs before then, and although intent seemed clear, I don't believe they were at war before Buenos Aires.
It was definitely the attack that sparked the invasion and made Rico and friends give it 100% since their home was destroyed. Gotta get payback for that.
Weren't the previous marines harmed fighting the bugs?
If by "previous marines" you mean the news report at the beginning of the movie?
That's the invasion of Klendathu that Rico goes on after BA gets hit. We even see the reporter giving the report from a different angle later in the movie.
No I mean people like his instructor who was already missing a limb before BA gets attacked. There are a bunch of people missing limbs before any attack.
Ah. Presumably these were lost in some other conflict, probably against other humans. We don't know of any OTHER Aliens, and since the war hasn't started yet we don't know one way or another.
