The son of a founder of the Hamas terror organization, which dispatched soldiers to butcher some 1,400 Israeli civilians on Oct. 7, says the “savages” in that organization must be defeated in Gaza, or “all of us will be next.”

See the video, posted online by CBN:

Mosab Hassan Yousef is the son of Hamas co-founder Sheikh Hassan Yousef.

He defected from the terror group in the late 1990s and secretly worked with Israel’s security services to expose and prevent several Hamas terror attacks.

Later, he embraced Christianity and now has blistered the United Nations, in his half-hour presentation, for failing to condemn the terrorism inflicted on Israel.

He explained Hamas’ “worst crime” is the “religious, ideological indoctrination” it inflicts on children, because it has one intention, the annihilation of the state of Israel.

“This is Hamas’ primary goal,” he said. “I speak as a first-hand witness on Hamas on their intentions.”

“Don’t be mistaken. Hamas is committing a crime against this generation and the next generation to come,” he said.

He described the torture he endured as a child under the control of Hamas, how he was whipped with an electrical cord.

“This is how they wanted me to become a violate savage like them,” he said.

He explained he doesn’t understand how such hate and violence is “not obvious to everybody.”

“The danger is if Israel fails in their war in Gaza, which is a brutal war … it will inspire … savages [who will] blackmail superpowers and bring democracies to their knees.”

“If Israel fails in Gaza, all of will be next.”

Social media commenters were stunned: “I don’t easily cry but this giant man touched my heard in a way I can’t describe,” said one. “My respect for him is indescribable.”

Another: “There is nothing more powerful than a person of truth who speaks the truth. And let’s not kid ourselves; we all know the truth when we hear it.”

The video, posted less a day earlier, already had accumulated closing in on 1.8 million views, and nearly 19,000 comments.

Another said, “Most powerful speech of the year. Possibly in the last decade.”

“‘Everyone speaks on behalf of the the children., the innocent..but today I can speak on the authority as a Palestinian child!!’ Wow!” added another.
