Who is Mosab Yousef?
Aside from being a New York Times best selling author of the book entitled, Son of Hamas-- Mosab Yousef is the firstborn son of one of the leading founders of a terrorist organization committed to the total destruction of the State of Israel. But rather than choose a life of hatred, racism, and murder, Mosab Yousef chose to save both Israeli and Palestinian lives, even thwarting an assassination attempt on the future President of Israel, Shimon Peres!
Given the code name, “The Green Prince”; Green because of the color of the flag of the Palestinian people, and Prince because he was the heir apparent to his father’s role in Hamas, Israel’s security said that, “So many people owe Mosab their life and don’t even know it. The amazing thing is that none of his actions were done for money. He did things he believed in. He wanted to save lives. His grasp of intelligence matters was just as good as ours — the ideas, the insights. One insight of his was worth 1,000 hours of thought by top experts.” Forbes Magazine described Mosab as “a genuine Palestinian freedom fighter” and former CIA director James Woolsey called Mosab a “remarkable young man” who should be commended for “extraordinary heroism and courage.”
But to many in Mosab’s community in the West Bank, he is a traitor and now a marked man. It’s why an Israeli interviewer remarked, “I ask myself — if this is courage, or total craziness.” Yet how refreshing it is that in a day when peer pressure can make a puppet out of man, that a person like Mosab Yousef steps up to the plate, thinks for himself and at risk to his own life — does what is right! We need more like him. Men and women of courage. John Wayne once said, “Courage is being scared to death but saddling up anyway.” I thank God for Mosab Yousef. A man who amidst great danger to his own life, saddled up anyway. He saddled up to save lives!
I hope you will join us in welcoming this young man to our city. It’s rare to have such a unique hero in our midst. Come and hear the inspiring and courageous story of “The Green Prince” — how he fought terrorism, saved lives and was changed by God’s love. Bring your family. Bring your friends. Bring you neighbors! September 4, 7:00 pm Calvary Chapel Auburn, Ca. Doors open at 6:30pm.
