Homeland Security Calls Good Evil
by Jan Markell
www.olivetreeviews.org
June 2, 2010
Mosab Hassan Yousef tells Americans that they have no idea about the
dangers ahead. Who is this young man and should we pay attention to
his warning? Yousef is the son of Sheikh Hassan Yousef, a founding
leader of Hamas. The organization is a brutal terrorist outfit
responsible for endless carnage not only against Israel, but also
America. They currently control what is known as the Gaza Strip,
surrendered by Israel for promises of peace in 2005. Only more
bloodshed followed this give-away of land.
Yousef is the author of the book, Son of Hamas: A Gripping Account of
Terror, Betrayal, Political Intrigue, and Unthinkable Choices,
published by Tyndale House. He has a remarkable story. Before the age
of 21, Yousef saw things no one would want to see from abuse of power,
to torture, to death. He also witnessed the behind-the-scenes dealings
of top Middle Eastern leaders who make headlines around the world
daily. He was trusted by the highest levels of Hamas leadership.
Yousef worked alongside his father, Sheik Hassan Yousef, in the West
Bank city of al-Ghaniya near Ramallah, while secretly embracing the
Christian faith and serving as one of the top spies for Israel's
internal security arm. Yousef was recruited by Shin Bet in 1996 at the
age of 18 while at an Israeli detention facility. He then became an
official spy for Israel for a decade.
But in spite of his conversion and pro-Israel work, in the eyes of
Obama's Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Yousef is a security
risk -- at least to the top dogs there, including Janet Napolitano.
This is the same agency and director who wants to call terrorism a
"man-caused disaster." She will not allow immigration agencies to
increase deportation of illegal aliens. She claimed "the system
worked" when a young Nigerian tried to blow up a plane on Christmas
Day. And she allowed the release of a DHS report that said the real
homeland threats are war veterans, pro-life activists, gun owners, and
individuals who are interested in the end-times. Add to that list a
former terrorist, now a Bible believing Christian, who only wants to
save the lives of innocent people, particularly Jews and Americans.
And somehow Americans are expected to trust Janet Napolitano in spite
of her comment that "Amnesty (for illegal aliens) is good for
national security." Homeland Security is clueless when it comes to
security issues.
But neither Napolitano nor anyone in her department likes Mosab Hassan
Yousef, now best known as the "son of Hamas guy." Yousef just revealed
on his blog, hosted by Tyndale House, that DHS has asked him to appear
on June 30 before immigration judge Rico Bartolomei at the DHS
Immigration Court in San Diego. The DHS does not want to grant him
asylum which he has asked for because the DHS believes he is "a danger
to the security of the United States and he engaged in terrorist
activity." My wildest imagination could never make this story up! The
department that likes to see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil
when it comes to real terrorists, is painting with a broad evil brush
when it comes to Yousef.
Yousef states on his blog, "Don't think that I am writing this post to
get you to feel sorry for me or even to write your congressmen or
senators on my behalf. I believe that God is using this situation to
expose the weaknesses of Homeland Security and to put pressure on it
to make changes that can save lives and preserve freedom."
He also states on his blog, referring to comments he made to DHS
folks, "I am the son of Sheikh Hassan Yousef. My father is involved in
a terrorist organization, and I would like political asylum in your
country. You didn't catch me. I came to you to wake you up. I wanted
to tell these folks that they have huge gaps in security and I wanted
them make changes before it is too late."
Homeland Security would not even listen to our FBI director who sees
Yousef in a far more favorable light. The FBI is heeding the warnings
of many, including Daniel Pipes, who states, "Hamas' logistical cells
in the U.S. could be quickly turned operational." When and if this
happens, Yousef would be an invaluable resource.
Pipes also quotes former FBI Director Robert Mueller who said in 2005,
"Although it would be a major strategic shift for Hamas, its United
States network is theoretically capable of facilitating acts of
terrorism in the United States. According to a senior government
counter-terrorism official, Hamas could be merging with elements of
Osama bin Laden's all-inclusive military arm and the two together
would then carry out military strikes against America. They have
operations planned for here, they have the capabilities to strike at
will, and when the time is right, they will do it."
Yousef concludes, "Exposing terrorist secrets and warning the world in
my first book cost me everything. I am a traitor to my people,
disowned by my family, and a man without a country."
This ordeal is not new for Yousef. There have been hearings on and off
for a couple of years. Yousef states, "When they demanded evidence to
support my claim that I was not a terrorist or a security threat, I
filed a draft of my book, Son of Hamas. Surely this would make
everything perfectly clear. They would discover that I was an
intelligence agent, not a terrorist. That I tracked down terrorists
and put them in prison. That I was an asset, not a threat. They didn't
get it."
They don't want to get it. They want to demonize people of faith who
take a stand for righteousness and who want to silence political
correctness. They have a distorted view of the truth and probably
wouldn't recognize it if it were a five-hundred pound gorilla staring
them in the face. Truth is for sale today and the price is cheap.
Yousef invites anyone to come to his hearing at 8 a.m. on June 30 at
the Immigration and Customs Enforcement in San Diego, CA. This is
located at 880 Front Street, Suite 224.
Because there would be a series of appeals in his case, he is not
likely to get deported immediately. Perhaps that is not the point.
What is the point is that some in our highest offices of government
are coddling real terrorists, reading them their Miranda rights,
allowing them to build a mosque near the 9/11 site, and refusing to
call them jihadists. But a young man who has saved the lives of many
Israelis and Americans is suspect and, if it were possible, would be
thrown back to fend for himself among the corrupt, wicked Palestinian
leadership. The words of the prophet Isaiah are so true today as we
see good being called evil and evil, good (Isaiah 5:20).
Joseph Farah sums it up well: "You can hate America. You can terrorize
America. You can blow up targets in Israel. You can preach Islamic
hate speech. You can do all that and get away with it in America. Just
don't repent. Just don't embrace freedom. Just don't turn away from
jihad. That's when things get dangerous for you in America."
