It’s not compelling enough unless we find out who was behind it, which is probably unlikely.

Well, the identity of who's behind it can be left to the imagination of the authors.

I think it's reasonable to think that behind this attack there is a well organized intelligence agency of a big country, so the author can choose the one that they likes more.

Or, even better, delay the issue to the season 2 :D
