I suspect that what was meant was that the attacks themselves were far more sophisticated than what a skiddie could do (after all, if you just run scripts, you probably don't really learn anything from the information you get back), not so much that the person ordering the attacks was anything more than a script kiddie. Of course, they didn't really make it clear what exactly they meant by it.
