Obama admin trying to deport Son of Hamas founder Mosab Hassan Yousef

This is exactly why people don’t trust this administration. They side with dictators and theocracies, and do stupid things like trying to deport those who fight against terrorism. Nothing about this regime makes sense. Typically, one would think Yousef would be embraced by the US for siding with the Israelis to save lives on both sides of the conflict. Yousef cared about his people as much as he did Israelis, and worked with the Shin Bet to prevent as many deaths as possible. And now that he has converted to Christianity, his life is certainly in danger within the Muslim world if he gets deported. And apparently this regime would like to see that danger realized. What the hell is wrong with them? (H/T Weasel Zippers):

The Department of Homeland Security is trying to deport the son of a Hamas founder who told of his conversion to Christianity and decade of spying for Israel in a New York Times best-seller.

“Son of Hamas” author Mosab Hassan Yousef revealed on a blog hosted by his publisher he is scheduled to appear June 30 before Immigration Judge Rico J. Bartolomei at the DHS Immigration Court in San Diego.

Yousef said the DHS informed him Feb. 23, 2009, he was barred from asylum in the U.S. because there were reasonable grounds for believing he was “a danger to the security of the United States” and “engaged in terrorist activity.”

An incredulous Yousef said the U.S. government’s belief he is a terrorist is based on a complete misinterpretation of passages of his book in which he describes his work as a counterterrorism agent for the Israeli internal intelligence service Shin Bet.

Yousef said he’s not so much worried about himself as he is “outraged” about “a security system that is so primitive and naive that it endangers the lives of countless Americans.”

“If Homeland Security cannot tell the difference between a terrorist and a man who spent his life fighting terrorism, how can they protect their own people?” he asked in his blog post.

Yousef said whatever Judge Bartolomei decides will be appealed, “and this insane merry-go-round can go on like that for decades.”

The March 18, 2010 Christian Post interview...Mosab Hassan Yousef, the author of the book Son of Hamas, held a teleconference with Christian journalists Thursday. The following is a transcript of Yousef’s March 18 news conference."I encourage them to read the chapter 9, verse 5 and verse 29 that put a death sentence on everybody who doesn’t believe in Islam. "This is not new. "This is not the idea of a radical Muslim. "This is the ideology of the God of Islam himself."Art

Perhaps it would help if you did a little research, it might help you to have a better understanding of things. As well as preventing your head from exploding.

The Truth...Joseph, his chosen English name (... born Mosab Hassan Yousef) speaks the truth about the god of Islam, in the Jerusalem Post interview of March 4, 2010, so it is definitely possible that Muslim Brotherhood operatives who have burrowed into the dhimmified U.S. State Dept. (... think CAIR, etc.) may be pushing the case against Joseph. They probably don't like this kind of "truth talk" about their god, Allah.""It [...Islam] is not a religion of peace," said Yousef, who converted to Christianity. "The biggest terrorist is the God of the Quran."I know this is very dangerous and this will offend many people."The more you follow the steps of the prophet of Islam and the God of Islam, the more you get close to being a terrorist."I hope Joseph can find the political and financial support from informed Americans until Obama's one and only Presidential term is history.ArtSTOP! Islamization Of America

Talk about making a lib's head explode... a right wing website advocating for U.S. protection of the son of a Hamas founder. Maybe this is the paradigm shift that Glenn Beck has been talking about...

THOUGHT:This has NOTHING to do with them having any 'fear' that he poses a 'danger' to our 'national security'......it has EVERYTHING to do with:1. Slapping Israel across the face... again2. Putting cooperation with Israel in jeopardy (in the minds of any other foreign nationals) ~ in other words, "Oh no, helping THIS 'ally' is no longer a way into our ~ sick, gutless government ~ good graces3. Like the purple tie/pin/socks/whatever worn by this current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. (and his vice-prick), this deportation of a STAUNCH ALLY of ISRAEL (and America, as it was until 15 months ago... AND SHALL BE AGAIN) ~ serves as a thinly veiled FLAG OF ALLEGIANCE WITH OUR ENEMIES.As I said... just a thought.CM Sackett

Thank you for bringing this story to our attention. These people are INSANE. It is a clear political swipe at classical liberalism and a victory for our enemies. Why don't you bow to liberty and truth instead of two-bit dictators and fascism? Oh... and he wants amnesty for all "Mexican" illegals, but he won't give political assylem to someone who's life would be legitamately in danger. What hypocrites!!!
