The world needs more like him:
The son of one of Hamas’s founding members was a spy in the service of Israel for more than a decade, helping to prevent dozens of Islamist suicide bombers from finding their targets, it emerged yesterday.
Codenamed the “Green Prince” by Shin Bet, Israel’s internal security service, Mosab Hassan Yousef, the son of the Hamas co-founder Sheikh Hassan Yousef, supplied key intelligence almost daily from 1996…
…Mr Yousef, 32, a convert to Christianity who now lives in California, has revealed the intrigues of his years as a spy in a new book called Son of Hamas…
The man just painted a huge target on his back – not only betraying the terrorists of Hamas, but becoming an apostate of Islam. People will be displeased – including, no doubt, his former bosses in Shin Bet, given that spy agencies never like it when someone talks, no matter what the reason.
But we need people in this world who can see what is right and what is wrong and then have the courage to act on that conviction. Mr. Yousef is probably not the perfect man, but he is someone who helped to thwart terrorist attacks, even though his own family was involved in them. That takes rare courage – and it may end up costing him his life.
