This timeline suggests Duqu hacked Kaspersky BECAUSE they knew they had found the EG tool, not vice versa.

I’m not sure how you’re drawing the conclusion that the US probably helped Israel or that a timeline of events suggest adversary intent

Espionage operations are complex, the reason for DuQu compromising Kaspersky isn’t something we can easily assign with a few data points

True. Backdoor on TAO guy's computer could ALSO be used by Israel. But timeline DOES seem to say Kaspersky found the file and alerted US 1st

Right, could be used by a lot of folks too including other RU if NSA saw RU have the data. Agree on the timeline takeaway on KAS

That's my main point (tho timing of Duqu hack & timing of destruction of GrayFish conspicuously absent fr otherwise very detailed timeline).
