Why not encourage people to move from Gaza to the West Bank, Egypt, etc

Still, many individual Gazans presumably want to leave, and would move to the West Bank if they could, but according to the Wikipedia article @Elmer_J.Fudd linked, Israel does not allow it. It doesn’t really explain why.

Security concerns. You’ll note that movement opens up when things are calm and shuts down when they heat up.

Re Hamas’s leader, they are apparently trained and funded by Iran, and have just acted in Iran’s interests, so why would he be in danger?

Being in Qatar will not shield this guy from Israel.
