Why do the Israelis and the Palestinians both want the Gaza Strip?
The Israelis believe it is rightfully theirs according to the Biblical land of Israel, but the UN-recognized border goes outside it, so the Palestinians want to have it as their own nation. The previous opinion is incorrect. Israelis do not actually want the Gaza Strip, specifically because it is NOT part of the Biblical Land of Israel (Gaza is recognized to be part of the Philistine State in Biblical Times). The reason that there is conflict in Gaza is that Israel believes that the regime in Gaza is hard-set on the destruction of Israel. Palestinians do want the Gaza Strip, as explained by the previous opinion, so that they can have their own country.

Why was the Gaza strip not included in Israel?
Answer 1Israel from the beginning did not seek the land that was not part of the territory formed by two Hebrew Kingdoms of the past: Northern Kingdom of Israel and Southern Kingdom of Judah. Gaza was the land where the "sea people" from Greece called by Ancient Jews "Plishtim"- invaders in Hebrew - founded their five confederate cities. Later the word "Plishtim" was transformed in "Philistines" in Greek and "Palaestinians" in Latin. Although these invaders -Palestinians- were finally defeated by Israelis/Jews, they did not look at Gaza as at their land.Answer 2If you are referring to the Modern State of Israel, the Gaza Strip was never really a part of the Jewish State. According to UN Resolution 181, the whole of the Gaza Strip and a much larger piece of land would belong to an Arab State. During the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-9, Egyptian troops were still in the Gaza Strip when Egypt agreed to a ceasefire, giving Egypt control of Gaza. In 1993, the Oslo Accords set up the Palestinian Authority in the Gaza Strip that would be a functionally separate state. Gaza has never bee under Israeli Civilian Control and most Israelis are quite happy with that.
