Its cyber-enabled influence operations take a different form because of those different end goals. It&#39;s not just about technical capabilities.

My comment elaborated on different goals. If you can&#39;t sway a whole election or this wouldn&#39;t achieve high end goals (such as shifting US support from Israel) it seems likely the aim is to influence or smear who might be close to a future administration, on both sides. The tactics reflect these goals.
