He actually said Hezbollah and Hamas have used it repeatedly to force concessions from Israel..

Yes, I am aware that the author is a pathological liar. Hamas has not earned a single concession from Israel, though Hamas terrorism was at one time funded by Israel. Hezbollah is not a terrorist organization. The author's inclusion of that group tells us something about his bias, and thus his ability to analyze the Palestinian conflict.

The terrorists have their ends. Deny these — make sure that suicide terrorism does not pay

Hamas' goal is to drive Israel out of the occupied territories. This has not been accomplished. Their ends were denied (in fact, Israel has increased the occupation dramatically), and yet their attacks continue.
