Annex it and be done with it.

Though that said, I almost favor giving the Palestinians exactly what they asked for, their own state. Then when they inevitably launch rockets into Israel (because there’s no way they won’t), go crush them as a formal state perpetrating acts of war and be done with it. “We gave you a state, you kept attacking us, no more state for you.”

The Palestinians can't get their own state under current circumstances because the geography and politics simply won't work.

Someone actually proposed an interesting "Three-State Solution" recently that made more sense than a "Two-State Solution" in many ways. That proposal involved the creation of two separate Palestinian states, recognizing the reality that the West Bank and Gaza can never be a contiguous state and have grown increasingly disconnected politically and economically.

Didn’t that already happen in 1969?

That’s been done - Israel gave the Paleoswinians all of Gaza, complete with productive properties (mainly farms and green houses producing tens of millions of dollars worth of flowers for Europe), and all they did was destroy the properties (because JOOOOOOS built it) and use the entire place as a launching pad for mortars and missiles. Screw them, they’ve had their chance on multiple occasions. Every time Israel offers their hand in peace, they get it back missing a few fingers. ENOUGH!
