Following are excerpts from an interview with Hamas spokesman Ismail Radhwan, which aired on Al-Jazeera TV on April 16, 2008

Ismail Radhwan: [President Carter's visit] reflects the recognition that the Hamas movement cannot be ignored. We will benefit from this meeting by explaining our cause, our positions, and our principles and by presenting our just cause. We will adhere to our principles, and will demand that the oppressive siege be lifted from our Palestinian people.
