As a young girl in war-torn Lebanon, the author experienced traumatic, life-changing experiences at the hands of Islamist terrorists. She has an anti-pluralist message for America: lax immigration law enforcement and muslim family birthrates are going America into the America-stan province of a future global caliphate. True as that may be, her solution sounds fasctistic: religious belief can legally prevent you from studying physics or chemistry, citizens must be welcome to anytime show more wiretapping and home/body searches, etc. I recommend "Infidel" for a more nuanced, balanced view. show less
Ms 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. show more 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. show less
Brigette Gabriel's personal experience during the Lebanese civil war (four years primarily in a bomb shelter with her aging parents) and her warning about the dangers of Islam. What resonated with me was her questioning of why moderate muslim leaders in free countries such as the US were not speaking out and condemning the actions of the Islam radicals. Her personal experience and study also connected thirty years of terrorism leading up to 9/11, of which I had not seen the progression show more before. The warnings are very similar to those found in The end of America as we know it - and raise the question about political correctness in the face of terrorism. show less
A tremendously important book for these dangerous days we live in from one who has seen Islamic terror up close and personal. The first few chapters of the book are biographical and supply a lot of rich information about the Middle East, information that few Americans are aware of. Her passion is to get Americans to wake up and recognize the danger we are in, to stop speaking of Islam as this peaceful religion that seeks the best for its citizens but to take a good look at what Islam has show more produced (and failed to produce) in countries where it rules supreme. It is not difficult to imagine an angry woman on a soapbox, angry in much the same fashion as the Biblical prophets of old who warned of the wrath to come. May God bless her in her zeal for the freedoms we enjoy. show less
