"Actually, some of the most dangerous terrorists that the West ever experienced came from very wealthy Arab oil countries like Saudi Arabia. The only difference [with Gaza] is poverty, and that they are very close [geographically] to the Jews. Like, for example, if Pakistan was close by, jihad would not be limited to the Palestinians."

"Terrorists, jihadists, are worldwide. What we saw, for example, in Syria, remember ISIS? Remember what happened just recently against the Druze in Syria? See what the Houthis are doing. See the barbarism of the Iraqis, for example, during the Shia-Sunni clashes. But of course, there were no headlines. Take Algeria also. I can go on and on. Look at Sudan recently."

"What I'm trying to tell you is that the entire region is ruled by tribalism. This is not only unique for the Palestinians. It's a death culture. They just find in Israel a common enemy, because they are Jews. But practically, if they don't have the Jews to kill, they will kill each other."

"But as of now, I think the vast majority of Gazans, they don't see Israel as a possible peace partner, and they don't recognize Israel. They will want a Palestinian state on the rubble of Israel."                                                                                                                  Mosab Hassan Yousef, eldest son of Sheikh Hassan Yousef, a founder of Hamas

Dedicating himself to exposing the reality of Islamist totalitarianism and conquest, the oldest son of one of the founding members of the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas which along with Hezbollah, the Houthis and other death-cult groups operates as an offshoot of the Islamic Republic Guard Corps of the Republic of Iran, Mosab Hassan Yousef has his work cut out for him. He has a large following among those who are in the crosshairs of Islamist jihad, and no doubt he is extremely aware that he is considered a traitor and worse by the very communities he was brought up in. He was thoroughly indoctrinated as a child.

 

Born in 1978 in Ramallah, he is aware the world's longest-reigning 'refugees' and their 'victimhood' saga is a parody of reality. At one time fully involved in the ideology of jihad he was in line of inheritance as an  elite leader within Hamas. And then, in late 1997 he began to view matters through the lens of reality, witness to the lethal violence unleashed by Hamas upon any whom they suspected of collaborating with Israel when so-called 'collaborators' (on suspicion; no formal much less informal trial was conducted, no evidence supporting that suspicion) would be hog-tied to the back bumper of vehicles and driven at high speed through the streets of Ramallah as a warning to all Palestinians in Gaza.

 

His conscience and his native intelligence informed him that what he saw and heard and was brought up to believe in -- an unwavering commitment to killing Jews in Israel to free up the land for the 'rightful owners' -- was a troubling perversion of reality and justice. He was recruited by Israel's internal security agency, the Shin Bet, to act as an informant; his code name, 'The Green Prince'. He worked undercover, sabotaging terrorist plans, helping to secure hundreds of lives both of Palestinians and Israelis, for a decade. Even as his father was a leading figure in Hamas.

 

Exile from his past was inevitable. He wrote a memoir, "Son of Hamas", revealing his entire story, in 2010. A later publication, from Hamas to America told of his years as a citizen of the United States, where he converted to Christianity. He has never stopped speaking up, telling the world of the dangers of Islamofascism, and in very particular his intimate knowledge of the victimhood culture of those that identify themselves as Palestinians. As an Arab and a former scion of Islamist jihad, very few have the background and knowledge his narrative describes.

 

The Jewish group Tafsik invited Yousef to speak in Toronto, and on November 19 he addressed the issue of Palestinian flag raisings in Toronto, Calgary and Winnipeg. He spoke of Canadian politicians as "hypocrites looking for votes, supporting chaos and terrorism". Supporters of Hamas and the Palestinians in their regional demonstrations against Israel are "spitting venom, taking advantage of Gaza's tragedy -- using your freedoms to destroy your freedoms". 

 

Islamists, he said, are "savages" immune to negotiation and reason. They perpetuate an "inverted narrative" using projection to accuse Israel of genocide and colonization, while they themselves are the genocidaires and colonists on traditionally Judaic ancestral lands. "The problem with the government of Canada", he stated, "is they have been platforming Palestine. This is the biggest antisemitism out there -- rewarding Palestinians for their violence, then expecting from such a government to actually be fair to the Jews. They are appeasing Muslim voters, and there is going to be consequences...they are part of the problem, not part of the solution".

"The Jihadists are going to be violent, and anyone who would oppose them or offends their religion or criticizes their religion, they are going to kill and kidnap and commit terrorism."

"This is paving the way for a new generation. Right now it's like a cancer; it's a big problem that nobody actually knows how to deal with."

"What we need is to bring the truth to the people. For example, all the allegations of occupation, of genocide, of colonization, of stealing the land from the Palestinians, these are baseless accusations. And they are very serious accusations. We need to shed light on how the Gaza tragedy was the outcome of Hamas weaponizing civilians."
