It makes perfect sense for the US to outsource controversial work to the Israeli military industrial complex, just like it makes perfect sense for fortune 500 corporations to outsource controversial work to mckinsey. Plausible deniability for the party that cares about their image, money for the party that has embraced the destruction of theirs. I guess the US could use domestic contractors instead, but then they'd have to admit the contractors were sanctioned when they don't bring criminal charges.
I'd be much more worried if US government was found to be hacking/assassinating Saudi dissidents, because that would mean the leaders of the US government are completely incompetent. That's not to say it's not happening, just that it would be idiotic for the government to do that themselves when they can use foreign contractors instead.
