How long into the game is this happening? You might be crossing the Mega Evil Empire threshholds.
There are entries in Setting.txt to either turn off MEE, or change the trigger conditions.
The other possibility is that the Partnership allows them to see all your colonies, which can upset them if they colonize the same planet type. This is one of the things that's set in the race's Anger file.
I've had the same thing happen, and it's obviously due to your second point (i.e., the AI got upset when they saw all my colonies), because I was in 5th or 6th place at the time. My only complaint about it is that the AI still showed "brotherly" towards me.
BTW - the other possible reason for war between partners is the intel op "Communications Mimic", which always manifests as a declaration of war from one empire to another.
