Resumen del Editor

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.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"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))

Wake Up America

Do politicians in this country ever read about the sworn enemies of our nation and our way of life? I urge all Americans to wake up and start voting based on information, not on media hype. The overwhelming evidence that says over and over again that Islamic extremists are plotting the destruction of this country should be heeded. I do not like the war in Iraq any more than the next guy, but the case made again by this author tells me loud and clear that we cannot back out of Iraq and show yet again that America's resolve to protect herself is not there.

Brigitte Gabriel very discrete

The author describes some gruesome things without being extremely graphic. This I can handle. She tells a story that Americans need to hear. She explains the why's of the Middle Eastern world. She tells of some things that Americans with a background of relative peace would not notice but that are necessary to our own survival in the very near future. This is a must read for Christians.

First 2/3 = fasincating, final third = GOP rant

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I'd definitely recommend the first 2/3 to anyone wanting to do more about the history of radical islam and how it became more powerful. not sure i'd recommend it blanketly.

What other book might you compare Because They Hate to and why?

Not sure there is a specific book other than the ones she has written, but it's in the category of international/foreign memoirs with a social context.

What does Brigitte Gabriel bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Her performance actually helped save the book. She has a great tone and passion and you really know she's talking about her own life.

What’s the most interesting tidbit you’ve picked up from this book?

more reinforcement that radical islam has only one focus - sharia law for the planet.

Wake up America

Would you consider the audio edition of Because They Hate to be better than the print version?

No equal to. The printed version is better for reference study.

What other book might you compare Because They Hate to and why?

Just starting my education, nothing to compare it to.

Any additional comments?

Every American Citizen should read or hear this book.

Easy listening!

Remarkable story.
Makes you think really about the world we are living in.
The begining is very good the story And the speed That Things take. At the is more like an instructions, overall is a very good. spetially If you read Infidel.

OUTSTANDING!!!!!!

Requires the attention of everyone that wants Civilization to continue forward and not go back to the Seventh Century

A great lesson in history

Every one should read or listen to this book a true warning for America and any other country about the true nature of Islam. Disregard at your own risk.

Brigitte is saying "I told you so" right now.

The scary thing about this book is that it was written in 2007. It is now 2014, and what is taking up almost every minute of every news channel in the US, on a daily bases......... It's happening., and America needs to wake up NOW.

Love her passion for this country

We need more ladies that have this type of worldly experience. Who know the true danger of this faith. Hopefully her voice can open the eyes/ears of the sleeping Americans.

Written in 2006 and applies to 2023-2024

Brigitte needs to be in every American political think tank and advisor to our Presidents. Her knowledge and understanding of the enemy we face is first hand. Frightening truths are revealed in this book and her personal story is devastating. She is the epitome of an immigrant we should seek in America. One that loves our nation and its values.
