Hamas founder's son: I spied for Israel - CNN.com: "The son of a founder of the Palestinian militant group, Hamas, Tuesday told CNN that he was a spy for Israel.
For 10 years, Mosab Yousef said he gathered information about Hamas terrorist plots and fed them to Israel's domestic security service Shin Bet.
Yousef, in an exclusive interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour, said he did it because he came to believe that Hamas was practicing 'exceptional cruelty' against its members and 'killed people for no reason.'
He has now written a book, 'Son of Hamas' detailing his exploits from his new base in the United States where he has lived since 2007. CNN could not independently confirm his story and Israel has refused to comment.
In the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, a former Israeli handler said of Yousef: 'One insight of his was worth 1,000 hours of thought by top experts.'"
