This has already happened. When I first began posting here, I had to argue with people over the legitemacy of Arafat, with people who at the time defended him as an "elected leader". Hamas will likely be elected, this time through a proper election. There are reports that the EU, and US have approved this possibility, and won't stop it even though the organization is on our terror lists.
Keep in mind the scenario your describing already happened. The PLO were no different then Hamas. They splintered into several organizations, one of which became known as the Fatah party.... and that's who the PA are now. Leftists have already defended them going so far as to call them moderates, or "men of peace"....Fatah's military wing is called Al Aqsa Brigade, and according to a CNN report this week, the majority of thuggery in Gaza today is not at the hands of Hamas, but Al Aqsa.... the current recognized government party. Hamas are known for having neato social programs, and cool summer camps where you learn to be a suicide bomber, so it won't be long before Leftists focus on that aspect of the group rather then their genocide charter. Even now, when Leftists critisize Hamas it's often followed by a conspiracy theory that they're a front group for Israel.
