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. 

Well, how do you know all that? You paint it as quite an undisputable fact that barring Iran everyone is so unhappy and disgusted with Hamas and that they have no sway at all. Is that really a fact.
Eg. Iraq paints the Hamas attacks as a natural consequence of the Zionist occupation authority's oppression. The official Syria 'raises its head high in honor of the martyrs of the Palestinian revolution and the heroes who planned and achieved the Al-Aqsa Flood operation'. That aren't quite the words to describe the deeds of a pariah. At the very least it's a bit more complicated than that.
