Mosab Hassan Yousef

Mosab Hassan Yousef was born in Palestine and was part of a strict Muslim family where his father was a leading political figure and a founder of Hamas. Never able to reconcile himself with the killings he witnessed, Hassan rebelled against Hamas, became a double agent, and risked his life to fight terrorism. Eventually, he found his way to the United States and has spent the last several years assimilating to American culture.

Hassan is a sought-after lecturer on the Middle East and a frequent contributor to news networks such as Fox News and CNN. He now devotes himself to writing as well designing and building houses; he also enjoys yoga, deep-sea diving, and running.
