Because They Hate:
A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America
Brigitte Gabriel - Lebanon
September 27th 2006
Brigitte Gabriel is president and founder of the right-wing American Congress for Truth and author of "Because They Hate: A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America" to be released by St. Martin's Press on September 5, 2006 (ISBN 0312358377). [1]
Gabriel is also a contributing editor to Family Security Matters, a conservative foreign-policy oriented organization that claims to represent "security moms"' and supports President George W. Bush. FSM
is, in fact, a political front group for the Center for Security Policy (See below). (The phone number listed on the FSM website is answered by the CSP.) [2]
Gabriel is a "Lebanese Christian who survived the Jihad by Palestinian and Muslim militias in her native southern Lebanon," Jerry Gordon of American Congress for Truth wrote May 26, 2006, for Israpundit.
According to a 2004 interview at Duke University (click on link "Watch Brigitte Gabriel's Interview"), Gabriel grew up in a southern Lebanon town near the Israeli border. The town, which appears as Marj 'Uyun (at coordinates H-9) on the 1976 map and as Marji'yun on the 1986 map, is located less than five statute miles from the "Armistice Line" with Israel.
Gabriel and her mother "were rescued by" the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) "who entered Lebanon and [were] given humane treatment for their wounds sustained in artillery shellings. Gabriel was
transformed by the experience went back to Lebanon but returned to Israel and became a Middle East News anchor and TV journalist working out of Jerusalem," Gordon wrote, "for 'World News' an evening Arabic news broadcast for Middle East Television seen throughout Israel, Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Cyprus and Lebanon."
According to the Wikipedia article on Middle East Television, "On April 10, 1982 Hope TV station in South Lebanon was donated to the Christian Broadcasting Network, and became METV. ... On June 5th, 1997 METV launched its 24-hour programming broadcast on a satellite. This increased the potential audience from 11 million to 70 million viewers with a signal that is now reaching the entire Middle East." (The location can be seen on the 1986 map.) "Her work is of international scope having brought her in contact with world figures such as Dame Margaret Thatcher, George H.W. Bush, Queen Nour El Hussein, the late Itzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres."
After marrying "an American war correspondent and news producer she came to the United States in 1989, ... [and] started a television production and advertising company. Her clients include ABC, NBC,
CBS, Fox News, CNN, Discovery, TLC, History Channel, 'Oprah Winfrey Show,' '20/20,' 'World News Tonight' and 'Good Morning America' to name a few," Gordon wrote.
Following the events of 9/11, "Gabriel realized then that the threat of Islamic radicalism had come to these shores. She founded American Congress for Truth (ACT) that has grown and has thousands of members in over 50 states, major provinces in Canada and 14 other foreign
countries," Gordon wrote.
