Son of Hamas Founder Granted Asylum in U.S.
(Washington Times) Eli Lake - Mosab Hassan Yousef, who spied against Hamas for Israel, won an immigration case Wednesday that will allow him to avoid deportation and stay in the U.S. The ruling came after the Department of Homeland Security abruptly withdrew its contention that Yousef should be kicked out of the country because of his ties to Hamas. His father, Sheik Hassan Yousef, is one of the founders of Hamas. Mosab's handler for the Shin Bet, Gonen Ben-Itzhak, traveled to San Diego to testify on behalf of his former agent.
