What is stronger than hate and bloodshed?

While Israel and Hamas engage in "all-out war" in the Gaza Strip, a FOX News documentary tells an extraordinary story of faith, courage, violence, betrayal and conversion.

Correspondent Jonathan Hunt's investigation goes deep inside Hamas, through a series of stunning exclusive interviews with the son of a founding member of the Islamic terrorist group. Mosab Hassan himself became the leader of the radical Islamic Youth Movement, fought Israeli tanks and troops in the streets, celebrated suicide bombings and recruited young men to the cause.

But that all changed when Mossab says he realized the true nature of Hamas and radical Islam, during a stint in an Israeli prison. He converted to Christianity and now -- despite an Al Qaeda death sentence hanging over him -- he speaks out for the first time about Hamas, an organization he says betrays the Palestinian cause, tortures its own members and will never honor any ceasefire with Israel.

I watched with interest this program "escape from Hamas". My instincts tell me something is wrong with the picture. "Love thine enemy" is the key to the whole thing. I believe I understand what is going on. As a result of their support of Israel, Evangelical Christians are the enemies of the Muslim fanatics. Hamas is the terrorist group we all know. Regardless of Hassan’s father being a founding member, by his actions of defection and conversion, this young Hassan guy would be dead by now. There is an approach to dupe the evangelical Christians with the: “I see the light” story. Hamas, through Hassan, will now try to reach out to Christians to love the Palestinian cause - even if it takes 30 years to do. This is the start, after all Hassan can now live on a handout in Southern California, much safer than in Gaza or the West Bank.

You may be right. After all, if Abbas can be called a 'moderate' and a 'partner for peace'--despite statements as recent as this last year to the contrary--anything can happen.
