Russia has its back against the wall and has little reason to invite retaliation. Israel has the means, motive, opportunity, and lack of restraint to punish its critics with these means, as well as the sway to cover their tracks with nonsensical disinformation. Media is pushing hard for the Russia Orc narrative and it says a lot about the people who are happy to buy it.
What would Israel stand to gain from having any remaining sympathy eliminated upon the discovery that they were behind it?
Chilling effect against detractors who are unable to retaliate in kind. Do they seem concerned at all with courting sympathy to you?
And can I ask you, what would Russia gain from this?
