The Economist obituary for Abu Nidal is worth reading. Perhaps he is best remembered as proof that Yasser Arafat is not a worst case scenario. The leaders of Hamas and Islamic Jihad who target their violence toward driving Israel and the Palestinians away from the negotiating table rather than toward it are his spiritual descendants. However, not even they ocncentrate on killing Palestinians rather than Israelis to achieve their ends as Abu Nidal did.
