Of course Israel knows this is not possible, but it’s a nice statement to point at every time they get caught killing civilians. “Look we told them to leave, nothing we can do after that.”

Evacuation to where?
Considering the end goal is obviously genocide, the ocean?
That’s not the end goal. The end goal is security for the Israeli people. If Palestinians choose peace, they’d have it. They have not chosen that path yet.
The end goal is security for the Israeli people.
This is nearly a certain white supremacist dogwhistle. Don't trust people who want to murder an entire people for the sake of "security" of other people. That's how ethnic cleanses and genocides are justified.
You connected two unrelated ideas.
Israel wants security for the people of Israel. Ideally, this is peace with their neighbors. Hamas has chosen war. Israel has no choice but the take action.
And this action must be extermination of the people of Palestine. If you're going to say it, say all of it. Stop dancing around what you're advocating.
Don’t put words in my mouth. I’m absolutely not saying that. Let me be clear: Palestinians should have a state and live peacefully as neighbors of Israel.
However, as of now, the Palestinian leadership is fracture and (in the case of Hamas) undeniably barbaric. The Palestinians need to choose better leaders and take themselves to freedom and peace they deserve.
When do they choose their leaders? They've not had an election in over a decade.

Yeah Hamas def made those Israeli settlers steal Palestinian homes /s
From the authors of "Why don't Russians/Iranians/North Koreans/etc. overthrow their regimes? It's a simple choice."
Thing is, even if the people want peace there's no one to deliver it. Their leadership has no interest in negotiating with the state of Israel that they see as illegitimate.
Per the linked article "toward the southern part of the besieged territory", which seems awfully vague for a major displacement of people.
