Personal testimony from "The Son of Hamas"

Hear the harrowing testimony story of Mosab Hassan Yousef, the son of Hamas' Co-founder Sheikh Hassan Yousef, who escaped a life of terror and now exposes the true face of Hamas' genocidal death cult.

The difference between us is that I have that perspective and more thanks to travel, study, thought, and friendships around the world

And you say this based on what ? I do travel, have friends from all around the world and of different religions thanks to being polyglot. My field of study is language didactics and do programming as a hobby. You aren't special.

You on the other hand cling to it as a point of personal heritage because you enjoy the sensation of absolute righteousness

What ? My points are based on the real history of my own country. Delegitimizing the fight for freedom is the first thing the colonizer did. Bringing / coercing someone influential to delegitimize the freedom fighters was done repeatedly. Hamas are palestine freedom fighters. When palestine is free, Palestinians will choose how to handle hamas which consist of broken mens who lost their children and wives or orphans, survivors of isreali strikes.

Freedom fighters will do what they need to do to free their country. My country freedom fighters weren't saint since forcing freedom from the colonizer require doing a nasty things you may call WAR and now thanks to them we are free.

Tldr; acting like both sides are horrible when one side is literally commiting genocide toward the other isn't a good take.
