"Do you want to return home? Please make the call if you recognize one of them," the leaflets read, per Reuters.

1. That should go over well with the Palestinians, after Israel killed thousands of their family members.

Are they entirely clueless in the Netanyahu/Likud government?

2. My thought exactly, plus

the IDF has destroyed a majority of homes, infrastructure, mosques, hospitals, schools, roads in Gaza, making repatriation nearly impossible.

And what do these "generous" Palestinians get in return for helping to return Israeli hostages? Exile.

4. so bombs would be better than leaflets?

or maybe you favor Hamas executing the hostages?

Hamas will not even negotiate the return of the hostages. What would propose that Israel do?
