Squish means extracting out the material inside by pressing it ..... just because atom has a nucleus in which there present neutrons (charge-less) and protons (positively charged). protons have strong electrostatic forces of repulsion between them that makes them cover a certain area which make nucleus...around nucleus there are electrons revolving around. having negative charge on them attracted by the nucleus...but electron also have a strong fore of repulsion among themselves which force them to cover the area....due to the presence of these forces it is impossible to squish an atom.
