I guess they're not willing to let it go, yet. I agree with you, though. It would make things easier for all - and better for the Palestinians (and Israelis, of course) - if they would make peace and move forward.
I suppose the tensions are still fresh enough that your "let it go" mantra would probably sound really patronizing to people in the area, though. I imagine it would be similar to telling Ukrainians to "let it go" while currently in an active war.
