I will ask though, on the suggestion to leave ... let's assume they were willing to do that. Leave and go where?

If referring to GD post above, the text was ...

Quote:
In a statement on X, he wrote: "All of the places which Hamas is deployed, hiding and operating in, that wicked city, we will turn them into rubble.

"I say to the residents of Gaza: Leave now because we will operate forcefully everywhere."

So believe he was referring to Gaza city and not the Gaza strip as a whole. If I was in Gaza city, I would leave for smaller towns/villages or countryside.

If referring to Bishop's statement to leave, as an individual/family, I'd leave for Fatah's West Bank where it's relatively more peaceful. Let the hardcore Hamas fighters fight it out with Israel for Gaza. In the meantime, I'll try live my life and see my family grow up in the West Bank (and start applying to immigrate to other countries).
