            * Sheikh Ahmed Ismail Yassein | The co-founder of Hamas | Palestine | by Tamer Youssef | Pencil Sketch on Bristol Paper | Cairo | Egypt | 2004 | Tamer Youssef's Caricature World *

Sheikh Ahmed Ismail Yassein (1937-2004) was the co-founder, with Abdel Aziz al-Rantissi, of Hamas, a Palestinian paramilitary organization and political party. Yassin served as the spiritual leader of Hamas, a controversial Islamist Palestinian group. Hamas gained popularity in Palestinian society by establishing hospitals, education systems, libraries and other services, but it has also claimed responsibility for a number of suicide attacks targeting Israeli civilians, leading to its being characterized by many western states as a terrorist organization. Yassin, a paraplegic who was nearly blind, had been confined to a wheelchair since a sporting accident at the age of 12. He was assassinated by an Israeli helicopter gunship in 2004. His killing, in an attack that claimed the lives of as many as nine bystanders, precipitated much criticism of Israel, and many observers suggested that the act would negatively impact the peace process. 200,000 Palestinians attended his funeral procession.
