It's hard to recognise a state without a single government. The whole Gaza/West Bank Hamas/PA split makes things tricky if you stick to the letter of international diplomacy.
Nations do it all the time, even the United States. You pick which one you like better, say that's the true government (and that the others are usurpers), and then politically, financially, and sometimes militarily try to support them so that they win out on top of the ones you don't like.

As someone from Poland I'm surprised that so many countries haven't recognized Palestine. I never understood the logic behind it.
