Didn't the German's dress up some concentation camp prisoners in german uniforms and have them shot, to make it look like they had been the victim of a Russian raid to provide an excuse for invading?
It would take up a unit slot, but you could have a barbarian "slave labour" unit be to be killed by Germany to trigger the war: would make it seem a bit more logical.
The "slave labour" unit could be build by the germans (and Japanese and Russians) or given via event using the settler slot? So you dont waste the unit slot.

By Jove!
I think I have it!
The Barbarossa invasion solution that is! 
It may require a slight twisting of history events...
What do you guys think of this!
In april 1941, the German civ announces it's 'invasion' of Yugoslavia...Thus:
@IF
TURN
turn=12
@THEN
TEXT
^Taking advantage of the confusion in Yugoslavia,
^the German high command orders an attack on the country.
^It begins with air raids, followed by the ground forces that advance from all sides.
ENDTEXT
JUSTONCE
@ENDIF
Then followed by this trigger...
@IF
TURN
turn=14
@THEN
TEXT
GERMAN WAR MACHINE UNLEASHED IN THE EAST!
^June 22, 1941 - Hitler sends more than three million German soldiers,
^reinforced by half a million auxiliaries from Germany's allies, to attack the USSR.
^This is the conflict of the dictators that will decide the world's future...
^"All we have to do is kick in the door and the whole rotting edifice will collapse" - Adolf Hitler
ENDTEXT
MAKEAGGRESSION
who=Third Reich
whom=Eastern Allies

JUSTONCE
@ENDIF
@IF
UNITKILLED
unit=anyunit
attacker=Germans
defender=Eastern Allies
MAKEAGGRESSION
who=Third Reich
whom=Soviet Union
JUSTONCE
@ENDIF
Voila! War in the East, and on Germany's turn too! 
Attacks on Yugoslavia can be put down to 'anti-partisan attacks'...
And if the anyunit trigger does not work, I can just make two, one with: 'unit=Infantry' and 'unit=Partisan'...
I know there is these units in Belgrade and Bucharest, the two cities that get attacked right away!
What do you chaps think?

Played a game as the United States and I was planning on staying out of the war until I was attacked or until the war got out of control.

July 1940
-After the Neutral Allies started demanding techs from me, I decided it was time to attack them and take care of the problem

QUESTION-Partisans seem a bit too strong, don't know yet though, depending on what you are going for
QUESTION-Noticed something weird, the AI was able to contact me, but I couldn't contact them?
-Hanoi taken over by Eastern Allies
August 1940
-Possibly give the Americans more buildings to build from the start, what I mean is maybe give them less buildings in their cities from the start of the war. Pretty soon I will start building military exclusively and the build-up will start a little too soon IMO.

It took a year longer than in real life, but at the same time, I did not use any nukes, and I did have to fight through every city. I played very cautiously the whole game, only attacking if I was sure I would win the battle. The B-17 was the weapon of choice and I will give some production numbers so you can see what happnened.
At the end of the war, I had 32 B-17's located split between both fronts. I lost 84 B-17's throughout the course of the war, so I managed to produce more than 100 B-17's from mid 1943 to early 1945 as I stopped building all weapons in late 1944 because they were not needed anymore. I built 20 Battleships very early, all before 1942 and I only ended the war with 1 remaining. I worked on building Super Battleships also, but only managed to produce 10. I did very little ground fighting because the M4 was inferior to the German tanks and they could not attack amphibiously in the Pacific. I did build more than 60 Shermans, but only 20 or so survived and they were used to garrison cities until Motor Infantry could be built.
It was a good game and I enjoyed it very much, I'm actually going to continue this and probably start a war with the Russians who control more than half of Europe. I may attempt a war with the British also, but that will come later.
Curt, I just did this so you could see how the war was progressing to see if you wanted to change anything etc. I don't expect you to read half of this, but at least you have it to look back at.

Why not having regions on that map which are as full as possible with cities?
