I think people are noting the similarities to the Armenian Genocide with the situation in Gaza. Namely, the forced displacement of millions of people for religious differences, which Turkey denies as a genocide because the Ottomans didn't set up death camps.

I honestly don't know, but just simply flattening all of Gaza can't be the way. Both from a humanitarian perspective (it can not be okay to murder thousands if not tens of thousand by the end of this to save a few), but also in practical sense. I'd even argue the chances of killing the hostages are huge like this, as long as they don't know where they are.

Imagine if these hostages were held on Israeli territory, they wouldn't just bomb the shit out of that, that would be considered absurd.
