Indeed. If the "Palestinians" had spent the last 60 years building

Israel, then they, too, would have a country, *and* permanent peace and
friendly relations with Israel.

It seems to me, the Palestinians have, over, and over, and over again.
It also seems pretty clear, that for the same 60 years, Israel has been
fighting the same war, the same way, and they still don't have peace.
Neither side appears to have learned anything.
