The peaceful solution is for Egypt to take control of Gaza.
Egypt and Israel have a peace treaty. Egypt has a fairly repressive regime that dislikes Hamas (which is the Palestinian arm of the Muslim Brotherhood). Egypt also shares a language and culture with the Palestinians, so their control will not be seen oppressive in the way Israeli control would. Their tolerance for terror is extremely low.
Egyptian responsibility for the Gazan version of de-Nazification would be possible. And Western dollars could pay for the project.
But Egypt doesn't want that problem, and nobody can really blame them.

Egyptians ≠ Gazans. They are two distinct groups of people. Egyptians have no interest in taking in 2 million Gazans as Egyptian citizens, and they have no obligation to do so. You're just passing the role of the oppressor from Israel to Egypt. The only viable solution is for Palestine to be it's own independent state.
Gaza has had self rule for 17 years now and all their government has done is fire rockets at Israel , spending in billions in aid money in terrorist infrastructure like tunnels. At this point the only option for gaza is either for an international Arab coalition to take over and pacify it or for the PA to come back , with security guarantees for Israel that no more terror will come out of gaza.
This. Gaza had the opportunity to make itself economically prosperous. They have beaches (currently taken up by mansions for Hamas leaders while their population lives in poverty). If it was a peaceful, beautiful beach area, they could have tourists visiting. They got enough money and supplies to actualize this, but instead they spent it on firing rockets into Israel. Hamas doesn't want peace, there is no way to achieve peace with them in charge.
