CNN has reported that Israel’s Mossad headquarters are located in a “densely populated area” in Tel Aviv, posing risks to civilians during Iran’s attack.

“The concern is if your firing, even though Iran might consider that a military target, it is in a densely populated city with civilians around it," CNN reported.

The remarks raised questions on social media on why West did not accuse the intelligence agency of using Israeli civilians as “human shields”, as they claim Hamas and Hezbollah do.

    Because they never thought people would attack it. When it was built, attacks were bombs on busses, not hypersonic missles shot from Iran.

        Totally unheard of! Bombing cities?! Don’t they know innocent people live there? Like putting “strategic targets” in densely population centers? It’s like Isreal is using its people as human shields. Israeli people should leave those areas if they don’t want to be caught up in the fighting.

          Most certainly. I mean why can’t Israel just put all their military assets in one very clearly cordoned off area in the desert with a big neon sign that says ‘all our tanks, artillery, airplanes, small arms, and ammunition for everything is right here’ and make abso-fucking-lutely sure that no civilian is within 10KM of the area and anyone working there is 100% military and also armed.

          Oh and they can’t live on-base. Because that is still using them for human shields, too. Oh and nothing ‘civilian’ to transport them either. Regular cars and buses? Nope. Only armored vehicles. Anything else would be perfidity!

          I mean if they have a single area that is put in secret it is like them being worse than Hamas. Actually it means they ARE Hamas all along! Bomb them! Bomb them to the stone age!

      That can’t be it. Of course the foreign intelligence headquarters were built with all sorts of security in mind.
