"איך קען נישט מער שטיל בלייבן וועגן דעם..." — זון פון חמאס מיטגלידער ברעכט ווידער זיין שטילשווייגעניש

Mosab Hassan Yousef, the son of one of the founding leaders of Hamas, is once again making headlines — this time with a powerful public declaration:
"I can't stay silent about this any longer..."
In a renewed wave of interviews and public appearances, Yousef is opening up about his childhood inside Hamas, his break from the terror organization, and why he chose to risk everything to help Israel thwart violent attacks.
From the Heart of Hamas to the Heart of Israel's Intelligence
Yousef’s story first shocked the world in his 2010 autobiography "Son of Hamas", where he revealed that he had served for nearly a decade as an undercover agent for Israel's Shin Bet, the country’s internal security service.
Born into a family revered in the Palestinian territories, Mosab was once on track to inherit a leadership role within Hamas. Instead, he chose to cooperate with Israeli intelligence, providing life-saving information that helped prevent suicide bombings, assassination plots, and other deadly operations.
“I was born into a culture of hatred and destruction,” he once said. “But I chose to stand for life.”
Why He's Speaking Out Now
In light of the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, Yousef says he feels morally obligated to speak up.
"Hamas is not just an enemy of Israel. It is an enemy of humanity," he said during a recent interview. “I know their ideology. I know what they teach children. I lived it. And I escaped it.”
His decision to go public again is not without risk. In the past, Yousef has received death threats, and his defection was considered one of the biggest intelligence coups in Israel’s history.
A Voice From Within
Now living in exile, Yousef has become a unique and controversial voice in the global conversation about terrorism, peace, and the future of the Middle East. His calls for moral clarity and condemnation of extremism continue to resonate with audiences worldwide.
Yousef’s message to the world is urgent:
“This isn’t just about borders. It’s about values — choosing between life and death, freedom and tyranny.”
As the violence continues to rage in Gaza and beyond, the voice of the “Son of Hamas” is a reminder that even those born into hatred can choose another path — and speak truth to power.
