Mosab Hassan Yousef, son of Hamas co-founder\u00a0Hassan Yousef, has slammed the group and its Western supporters.<\/p>\n

Appearing on Piers Morgan’s Uncensored, Yousef, known as “the Green Prince”, appeared alongside a number of Palestinian guests to give their view on the conflict between Hamas and Israel. He said the conflict has “opened the gates of hell on the Palestinian people”.<\/p>\n

Yousef criticised Hamas for its willingness to “sacrifice” Palestinian children and civilians. He said: “This is my message as an ex-Hamas member, as a son of one of Hamas\u2019s founders: enough of this. If we don\u2019t stop them now, the next war is going to be deadlier.”<\/p>\n

Yousef has long spoken out about his experience growing up in the West Bank city of Ramallah. He was at one point imprisoned and later became an informant and advocate for Israel.<\/p>\n

The Jerusalem Post reports he has spent time since addressing the media. This has included speeches at the United Nations Human Rights Council.<\/p>\n

His conversation with Morgan began with the former Good Morning Britain host asking him what he felt Hamas’ intentions were. Yousef replied: “Since its establishment, Hamas has [had] one goal in mind, which is annihilating the State of Israel.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It\u2019s not a secret that Hamas wants to destroy the State of Israel. They cannot accept Israel or accept Israel\u2019s right to exist.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
