Gaza is a challenge, to be sure. But the West Bank is a largish chunk of contiguous land, and is at least potentially a stable state.
But there are also Jewish settlements on the West Bank land, so it's not exactly the contiguous territory that it might be. Two-state solutions usually require either removing those settlements or putting them under Palestinian control, and the current Israeli government is extremely reluctant to accept either of those outcomes.
One could imagine a future government that is more amenable to that. That would still leave a disconnected Gaza, but it might just tamp down some of the hostilities.
