Vis-a-vis the most important question, this difference doesn't matter at all.

I'm even a bit astonished that anyone would think it does make a substantive difference (other than the incidental points mentioned by @ariehkovler in the replies).

2 If this was an act motivated by antisemitism (as it appears to be), it wouldn't matter if they rubbed chicken sausage all over the walls believing it to be pork sausage. Or if they smashed a loaf of Wonder Bread, thinking it was a challah, thinking that was a sacred object.

If you think there are other reasons why this isn't what it seems to be—false flag, the detergent fell off the shelf, a philosemitic attempt to clean the scroll gone wrong—then make that case. Anything is possible. But "it wasn't a real Torah" doesn't cut it. At all.

To point to a (much more extreme) example: Were American Muslims supposed to be unconcerned about anti-Muslim sentiment when Sikh's were attacked after 9/11?

I don't really understand why this is complicated. Am I missing something?
