Hamas: Israel's willingness to free prisoners shows legitimacy of demands

Hamas reiterated on Saturday its stance on a list of 1,000 prisoners it demands from Israel in exchange for kidnapped soldier Gilad Schalit. According to Army Radio, Osama Al-Mazini, Hamas' representative in charge of the Schalit deal, said that Israel's willingness to release 450 prisoners proves the legitimacy of the terror organization's demands, but added that it was not sufficient. "We will continue to insist on our demands that the Zionist enemy will answer to," the Hamas official said.
