If that’s not a denial, what is?

Here's a hypothetical example of what a denial might look like:

"Israel is not committing war crimes in Palestine; everything is by the book and the Palestinians are thankful for having many of their old schools and hospitals demolished to make way for renovations."

The main difference between the two is that the former statements (attributed to Clinton) are fairly accurate and ostensibly made in good faith, whereas the latter statements (the hypothetical example) are not accurate and have the appearance of intentionally creating a false narrative.

To be clear, I think Hillary is a dogshit human being and I think Israel is committing war crimes every day as they continue to murder civilians with the aid of American military tech and funding. But Hillary isn't saying anything that crazy here, or at least not in the actual quotes written in the article.
