The Jerusalem Post is set to host Mosab Hassan Yousef, known as “The Green Prince,” at the upcoming Jerusalem Post Diplomatic Conference on September 16, 2025, in Jerusalem.
Yousef, the son of a Hamas co-founder, grew up inside the inner circle of the terror organization. Immersed from childhood in a world of violence and extremism, he eventually broke away, choosing instead to cooperate with Israeli intelligence and reveal Hamas’s inner workings. His journey, later chronicled in his bestselling memoir, The Green Prince, has made him one of the most compelling and controversial voices on Middle East security.
At the Diplomatic Conference, Yousef will confront one of the region’s most urgent questions: Is it even possible to reach a diplomatic agreement with Hamas? His message is stark: Hamas is not only waging war against Israel, but also against Jews, Christians, and the very foundations of civilization. Drawing on his personal experiences and deep knowledge of the organization, he will provide rare insight into the ideology and strategy that continue to drive Hamas’s actions – including the atrocities of October 7.
The Jerusalem Post Diplomatic Conference has become a flagship event, bringing together world leaders, diplomats, policymakers, investors, and opinion-shapers to discuss Israel’s role on the global stage. This year’s program will feature leading figures from the worlds of politics, security, and technology, including Sequoia Capital partner Sean Maguire.
Yousef’s participation underscores the conference’s mission: to provide unflinching perspectives and foster conversations that address Israel’s most pressing challenges and opportunities.
