Product Description:
Brigitte Gabriel lost her childhood to militant Islam. In 1975 she was ten years old and living in Southern Lebanon when militant Muslims from throughout the Middle East poured into her country and declared jihad against the Lebanese Christians. Lebanon was the only Christian influenced country in the Middle East, and the Lebanese Civil War was the first front in what has become the worldwide jihad of fundamentalist Islam against non-Muslim peoples. For seven years, Brigitte and her parents lived in an underground bomb shelter. They had no running water or electricity and very little food; at times they were reduced to boiling grass to survive. Because They Hate is a political wake-up call told through a very personal memoir frame. Brigitte warns that the US is threatened by fundamentalist Islamic theology in the same way Lebanon was- radical Islam will stop at nothing short of domination of all non-Muslim countries. Gabriel saw this mission start in Lebanon, and she refuses to stand silently by while it happens here. Gabriel sees in the West a lack of understanding and a blatant ignorance of the ways and thinking of the Middle East. She also points out mistakes the West has made in consistently underestimating the single-mindedness with which fundamentalist Islam has pursued its goals over the past thirty years.
Fiercely articulate and passionately committed, Gabriel tells her own story as well as outlines the history, social movements, and religious divisions that have led to this critical historical conflict.

This short beautifully and passionately written book is not exactly what I thought it would be: just another shrill "Fox News" anti-terrorism commercial. It is a very different animal, indeed. And as the cliché goes, this author "has been there, done that, bought the tee shirt, and paid for it in her own blood." She thus speaks from deep and harrowing personal experience. Her book is a clarion call for America and the rest of the West to wake up, watch our backs, and our backdoors.

Brigitte Gabriel's combination of autobiographical and historical information creates a unique work which, through her own personal experience and knowledge of Islam, should be required reading for all Americans. She describes how Lebanon, once a thriving, pluralistic democracy, was infiltrated by Islamist terrorists who joined forces with local leftist radicals to foment a revolution which terrorized non-Moslems under the guidance of Iran and Syria. If this seems to be a familiar pattern, it is because ... Read More

I'm not all the way through this book, but just had to jump in with a comment! How anyone could disparage Brigette Gabriel and her account is beyond me! What she has been through is beyond my sense of understanding. Yet I also believe many Americans (hopefully not the majority) have their head in the sand and don't want to believe what she says about Islam's intent. Yet, if one reads all the examples she gives, I don't see how anyone could believe radical Islam is not hard at work spreading hate and discontent! ... Read More

As a CAPT in the US Navy, I have been in Iraq and have seen first hand people who are under Islam will do. The book "They Must Be Stopped" is an outstanding begining book that looks up front and close at the enemy of our world. I recommend this book to everyone who wants to understand the truth about Islam. I also recommend a book called "The Link": The Secret Relationship between Saddam and al Qaida is available for sale on lulu.com in soft cover. If you like to read more.
