Mosab Hassan Yousef, a former Hamas insider who became a key Israeli informant, sharply criticized the President’s approach to the group in a social media post, calling a recent threat of “complete obliteration” against Hamas “bold but hollow.”
Yousef, who was with Hamas in his youth and later detailed his experiences in his memoir "Son of Hamas," said financial and political ties to countries such as Qatar and Saudi Arabia compromise U.S. policy in the region. While praising the humanitarian evacuation of Gaza civilians, he argued that inconsistent strategies allow Hamas to regroup, conceal themselves among civilians, and maintain power.
“The root of this bloody war lies in Palestinian lies, fueled by fourteen centuries of Islamic conquest and deception,” Yousef wrote, blaming historical narratives of occupation and property disputes for perpetuating the cycle of violence. He urged independent, decisive action against the group’s backers in the Middle East, calling on the President to prioritize truth over optics.
Known as the “Green Prince” during his time as an undercover operative, Yousef is widely regarded for exposing Hamas’ inner workings and advocating for a hardline stance against Islamist militancy. In his post, he emphasized that real leadership requires confronting uncomfortable truths rather than issuing empty threats.
