Also I think we have plenty of evidence that these hare-brained Dr. Evil 
  schemes are not the way major nation-states do their dirty work 
anymore (if they ever did.)

If they want someone dead they send some guys to straight-up gun the 
target down one day as they walk out of their front door, like Russia 
has been doing in Spain recently, and like Israel has been doing 
everywhere for decades.

If they want a bridge blown up they drop some of those same guys off 
with some C4 and blow it up.

It all has a much greater chance of achieving the same effect reliably 
and is still entirely plausibly deniable. "We didn't blow up your 
bridge, don't know anything about that. And even if we did what are you 
gonna do about it. Bitch"
