About this audiobook
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, 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.

59 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Incredible job very informative and emotional story I honestly appreciate the writers work.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The author begins the book discussing her childhood growing up as a Christian in Lebanon up until her town was attacked by muslims. Not just the land was destroyed, but her way of life as well as the way of life for everyone in the town.
When she was a teenager after an attack her mother was wounded very badly and had to be taken to a hospital. The mother was taken to Israel. She had a chance to see Israel care for everyone regardless of race or nationality. At this age her eyes were opened to the true conflict of the war raging in her country and the lies she had been told in the media.
The beginning is a bit repetitious, but the flow becomes better when she's an adult and discusses the problems with being politically correct and the serious threat to America.
The book is very informative. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Ms Gabriel is a journalist who was an anchor for World News who grew up in war torn Lebanon during the war in 1975. She is an Arab Christian. She is passionate to tell the message that United States is at risk of further attacks by radical Islam. Ms Gabriel believes that the U.S. stance of tolerance is resulting in the US to be an easy prey and to be unaware of the dangers. In this 10 hour audio, the author tells her own story of survival, the history of Lebanon, Arab and Israeli conflict. Because of her passion and her unwillingness to be politically correct she has been widely criticized. But is this worth listening to? I think so, I think we need to be well informed and if we only hear one side or if we are afraid to question the policies then we might be guilty of apathy and as the author states, "social paranoia discourages free thought and expression. This book could have used some editing. She repeats herself quite a bit throughout the book. A written copy would be valuable that the audio as it is so much easier to research all the information that the author has collected. Ms Gabriel is a US citizen now and because of her past she is extremely passionate that what happened to Lebanon not happen here.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A good read to learn just some of what goes on with radical Islamists written by someone who has lived under such a regime.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Our book group read this book - we vary in our political beliefs and party affiliations, but we all agreed this was very worth while reading and it certainly opened our eyes. Highly recommend it.
