Son of Hamas Founder Derails CNN Interview: Is It Too Much To Ask To See My Mother? [Full Interview]

‘Please, I never ask anybody of anything and I know I surprised you with this’

EXCERPT:

YOUSSEF: "I want to see my mother. You know, I’m a strong man. I’m a very strong man. I stood in front of the United Nations and I trust the nations. And I stood in front of the crowds. I’m not afraid of nothing. I free-dive, I skydive, I do all type of extreme things. But is it too much to ask to see my mother? You know, she doesn’t know how to drive. She never left the territory. She’s almost 70. She’s not going to live for a long time. Can I have a hug one last time and tell her that I am sorry?"
WHITFIELD: "Yeah. Mosab Hassan Youssef, that certainly is not too much to ask, to be with your mother, to get that hug, to see her. I do hope that that can be facilitated in some way, but I certainly cannot promise that this network can make it happen. But I do appreciate your time. I'm wishing you the best. Thank you so much."
