Because They Hate

A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America

By: Brigitte Gabriel

Narrated by: Brigitte Gabriel

Length: 9 hrs and 39 mins

Publisher's summary

Brigitte Gabriel lost her childhood to militant Islam. In 1975 she was 10 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, which became the first front in a worldwide jihad of fundamentalist Islam against non-Muslim peoples. For seven years, Brigitte and her parents lived in an underground bomb shelter, without running water or electricity and very little food. Because They Hate is a political wake-up call. Brigitte warns that the United States 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. 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.

It's the world's second-largest religion. Listen to more of our titles about Islam.

Critic reviews

"A compelling and captivating personal story with a powerful lesson about threats to freedom in our time." (R. James Woolsey, Director of Central Intelligence, 1993-95)

"Brigitte Gabriel's story is at once intensely personal and possesses global significance....[Her] words should be read, and studied carefully, by all the law enforcement and government officials of the West as well as by everyone who values freedom." (Robert Spencer, author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades))

Every American needs to listen

Brigitte Gabriel’s story is one all Americans need to hear & even more the facts about what is happening in our country today. Radical Islam is a cancer that is spread through the land we love & if we don’t stop it..... it’s very scary to think what we will become.

Very Informative!!

Should be mandatory reading for every high school student in the US, but that will never happen in our "liberal public school" system!

terrifying and honest look at radical Islam

great book about a global jihad being fought in America and around the world. should be a required read for all high school students

Of course, this is true

There are naysayers that say this is all made up, but that is all nonsense. The American people can see what is going on. These Muslim terrorists hate America, and so does the American Left. They make strange bedfellows.

authenticity.

Good English. Disturbing content. could use more descriptive explanation of the American political arena.

Best audio book I've listened to, do date!

I've listened to well over two dozen audio books from Audible. I'd have to say the Middle East, Israel, Islam, etc., are at the top of my reading and listening list.

I have read and listened to such great scholars, historians and writers as Daniel Pipes, Robert Spencer, Dore Gold, Kenneth Timmerman, Bernard Lewis, Martin Gilbert, Paul Johnson, etc.

Brigitte Gabriel --- "Because They Hate" --- has got to be amongst the most riveting and captivating of all!

Why do I say this? Because unlike many of our great scholars and writers, Brigitte Gabriel lived it. She knows the Arab world and the Muslim-Arab mind on an intimate and a personal level. Her life's story in southern Lebanon is compelling, shocking, gripping and at times heartrending.

She speaks with passion and authority. I am not putting down scholarship and I will continue to study our many fine scholars and experts, yet this book is a must for anyone interested in the threat we face here in the west. It's superb!

I Love Brigitte Gabriel

She helps others to know how evil Islam is and how they lie to our face and stab Christian in the back

awesome

I love this woman's books... easy to understand and definitely wakes up what each of us needs to pay attention to. She is very articulate and I can't recommend it it enough.
