Survivorship bias. Every Palestinian faction that advocated for peace or a two state solution no longer exists.

What happened to them? I don't know, but their land is now claimed as a part of Israel. I don't believe they gave it up willingly. Back when people were debating genocide, one of the arguments was that there's more Palestinians than ever before. It used to be ~1 mil over the various states of Palestine, now it's ~5 mil in West Bank and Gaza, and many more all over the world.

The only ones left are the militants because everyone who tried everything else were killed or displaced.
