Publisher's summary

Since he was a small boy, Mosab Hassan Yousef has had an inside view of the deadly terrorist group Hamas. The oldest son of Sheikh Hassan Yousef, a founding member of Hamas and its most popular leader, young Mosab assisted his father for years in his political activities while being groomed to assume his legacy, politics, status...and power. But everything changed when Mosab turned away from terror and violence and embraced instead the teachings of another famous Middle East leader.

In Son of Hamas, Mosab Yousef—now called Joseph—reveals new information about the world’s most dangerous terrorist organization and unveils the truth about his own role, his agonizing separation from family and homeland, the dangerous decision to make his newfound faith public, and his belief that the Christian mandate to “love your enemies” is the only way to peace in the Middle East.

Eye opening

For my whole life I had heard Israel is the good country, Palestine is the bad country. This really opened my eyes and broadened my perspective. I never knew that Hamas had so many facets and players: some political, some militant, some religious, some a mixture. I also had no idea that Israel has equally contributed to the struggles. Never before was I a proponent of a two state solution, but now I can at least see why some hold that position.

Read This Book

This book is eye opening and truly comes from the perspective of someone who experienced both sides of an endless conflict. My heart is torn throughout this book and even still as Mosab is caught in a world of impossible decisions. It's an incredible and must read story if you want to even begin to understand the complexity of the middle eastern conflict. I love this book.

A well told account

Going into this book, I didn’t know much about the issues in the Middle East but this book gives great insight into some of the inner turmoil that’s been going on over there for decades now.
