Yeah, noticed that as well …
CNN did not, of course, vehemently denounce Israel’s use of civilians as “human shields” when it noted Mossad’s civilian-dense location. Because for CNN, like almost every Western media outlet, Israelis, unlike Palestinians, get to be human.
Mossad’s headquarters is a legitimate military target. It is located in a densely populated area in the same sense that, for example, the Pentagon is located in a densely populated area. It’s still a distinct target, not a tunnel under a hospital.
This isn’t double-speak from CNN. It’s equivocation from the author of the article.

We’ve still never seen anything supporting the “tunnel under a hospital” rhetoric. The whole thing started and ended with Israeli lies getting disproven and no real conclusion.
