Sinwar did ‘not shy away’ from tough questions: Journalist

Hind Hassan, who conducted a one-on-one interview with Yahya Sinwar in 2021, said he came across as a man “who was defiant” in his beliefs. Hassan told Al Jazeera she met him “walking down the street in full view” during a period when Israel had been bombing Gaza for 11 days and “everyone had believed he was in hiding”. Hind said he did “not shy away” from some of the tougher questions. She said when she asked a question about the claims that Hamas firing rockets into Israel could constitute a war crime, he became “passionate” in his responses. He said that Palestinians were expected to be “perfect victims, and that’s something that they cannot be”, she said. He also drew a comparison between the protest movement that sprung up in the wake of George Floyd’s killing by US police in 2020, and what happened with the Black Lives Matter movement in the United States, to the Palestinian cause, Hind said.
