"Nooo you can't tell civvies to leave an area and then assume everyone left is a combatant!"
Completing starving off northern Gaza is a key prong of the "Generals' Plan", which was proposed by a group of retired Israeli generals. In the words of the the architect of the plan:
"Since we already encircled the northern part of Gaza in the past nine or 10 months, what we should do is the following thing to tell all the 300,000 residents [that the UN estimates is 400,000] who still live in the northern part of Gaza that they have to leave this area and they should be given 10 days to leave through safe corridors that Israel will provide.
"And after that time, all this area will become to be a military zone. And all the Hamas people will still, though, whether some of them are fighters, some of them are civilians… will have two choices either to surrender or to starve."
Any northern Gaza civilians who stay in their homes will be assumed to be "Hamas people" and will be denied food, water, or electricity "for a long time".
The Israelis have given no official indication whether civilians will ever be allowed to return to their homes. But given the statements of Israeli ministers in favor of establishing Israeli settlements in north Gaza, it's pretty clear that the goal is to permanently expel all Palestinians from the area north of Wadi Gaza.
Good. Maybe the fricking fools will for the first time in their existence stop starting wars they're obviously going to lose.

LMAO literally what they should have done last October, instead of fighting over the same city 5 or 6 times in a year.
They should also say that for every day the hostages haven't been released, they will permanently reclaim x meters starting with the northern border.

i think they actually are going to genocide gaza then turn netanyahu over to the hague.
think about it, both Germany and Japan returned to normalcy globally in less than 10 years of the end of WWII, while israel gets shot at with missiles and terrorist bombings for decades while being accused of genociding a population that keeps growing and behaving worse. They really would be better off actually doing the deed then letting Bibi get hanged for it.
