Some might view that as a pariah visiting a pariah state. 

But you point is well taken. I don't mean to equate Hamas with ISIS. 

Their representatives are sitting at tables with government representatives in Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Qatar, and with Hezbollah. 

I just mean to say that none of these parties is happy to be dealing with them, and their diplomatic range is very limited,

but they're necessary to resolve the current war and, further down the road,

to construct a future for Gaza and perhaps a Palestinian state.
