They Must Be Stopped
They Must Be Stopped is New York Times bestselling author Brigitte Gabriel's warning to the world: We can no longer ignore the growth of radical Islam--we must act soon, and powerfully. Gabriel challenges our western and politically-correct notions about Islam, demonstrating why radical Islam is so deadly and how we can halt its progress.
Brigitte Gabriel speaks her mind:
*Fundamentalist Islam is a religion rooted in 7th century teachings that are fundamentally opposed to democracy and equality.
*Radical Islamists are utterly contemptuous of all "infidels" (non-Muslims) and regard them as enemies worthy of death.
*Madrassas in America are increasing in number, and they are just one part of a growing radical Islamic army on US soil.
*Radical Islam exploits the US legal system and America's protection of religion to spread its hatred for western values.
*America must organize a unified voice that says "enough" to political correctness, and demands that government officials and elected representatives do whatever is necessary to protect us.
Brigitte Gabriel has fearlessly faced down critics, death threats, and political correctness, and is one of the most sought after terrorism experts in the world. They Must Be Stopped is her clarion call to action. Gabriel thoroughly addresses the historical and religious basis of radical Islam, its frightening encroachment into societies around the world, and its abuses of democracy in the name of religion.

Powerful
I read this book in hard copy form after borrowing it from a friend some years back. Today I purchased the Kindle version and the accompanying Audible version. I have listed to half an hour of Brigitte reading a book that I am very familiar with. It is good to listen to her read her own book and it comes alive for me. Brigitte you say that the target of fundamentalist Islam are Jews and Christians. My one criticism of your book is that you have forgotten the atrocities on Hindus over the past 900 years. I grew up in India in 60s and 70s and have seen Islamic fanaticism first hand. Fortunately the city of my birth Bombay also had a powerful Hindu party that did not let matters get too far out of hand. After I left Bombay in 1980 to pursue my grad studies in the US, there were two incidents. The first one involved multiple bombs in December 1992 that I missed by flying out two days before during a business trip. The second was 11/26/2008 where ten men from Pakistan terrorized the city and killed over 160 innocent civilians. I want to point out to readers that the Jewish Rabbi, and his wife and four other Jews were tortured for over 24 hours at the Chabbad synagogue. Not one of my relatives long time Bombayites had any idea where it was located but these brutes had it programmed in their GPS units. The bodies of the Jews were mutilated beyond belief. I have tears in my eyes as I write this. What did those beautiful people do to suffer this fate? Yes, I know what it is: in the eyes of this fanatical religion every Jew deserves this. If you are Jewish and read this, please know that the country of my birth, India, welcomes all of you and respects your faith. I am also very angry at the Indian response. The headquarters of India's western Naval command was 1 mile away from Chabbad and the other sites of terror. Yet it took over 36 hours for Indian commandos to reach Bombay from Chandigarh via New Delhi. More details are in my comment below. The US would have had Navy Seals in a few hours. With the grace of Providence my wife and I live in a beautiful home in one of the four largest cities in thee US. To preserve the anonymity of my two neighbors I will not name it. Both are Hindu secular physicians and the gentlest couple you could meet. In 1988, the ladies father who was a Professor at Srinagar university, had Kashmiri separatists walk into their home late evening. They gave them till 8 AM the next morning to pack their cars and go. The family left for Jammu and then New Delhi the next day. They lost their house and everything that would not fit in the cars. Till today Dr and Dr Mrs ..... eyes tear and their anger comes when recounting this. Brigitte, I am with you. I am unable to feel sympathy for the Palestinians. The Muslims have destroyed our Hindu temples in India for hundreds of years and churches elsewhere. I am not saying all of them are bad. In fact I have had a few say they are secular atheists like Ali Rizvi. Amazon please publish this review. Everything I have written is true. Readers can google Chabbad house.
Are We Willing to Fight for our Way of Life?
Brigitte Gabriel’s first book “Because they hate” should be read by anyone who has doubts or mixed up feelings about Muslims and Islam. Since I read the first book first, I’m not sure if it would not have been a better idea to read “They Must be Stopped” first. Either way, these books are so full of excellent and first hand experience of the problems that developed in Lebanon after it was run over by Islam. This is not a trash Muslim review. I know many Muslims – so many of them are really peace-loving people. They just want peace and security in their lives – the same as we do. However, pure Islam is a very different way of life and we are seeing that through Islamic Terrorism. Gabriel’s book shows the dangers behind the lack of knowledge of the difference between Islam and Radical Islam. It’s a lesson well worth knowing. I am very very grateful to have had the opportunity to read both of these books. It’s so hard to bring out all the feelings that went through me as I read. Am I glad to know these things? Of course I am as it stops me from pointing fingers in the wrong direction. Read for yourself and you’ll know exactly what I mean. These radicals “hate us” – there will never be ANY peace between us! Our Christian way of life may very well be in great danger very near into the future. Are we willing to fight for it??
This is a must read
Brigitte Gabriel has laid out in full and well researched detail what the world is facing and what we must do to stand up. It is not just America, it is the world who must become aware and take action. I live in Australia and the political correctness here is sickening. I hark back to the ideals upon which our country is based and wonder what our leaders are up to and what their end goal is. Our forebears have fought for freedom and our people continue to fight for freedom “Under the Southern Cross” which stands proud on our flag. If we do not stop the insanity of the politically correct and call Islam for what it is then all the sacrifices of the past and the hard won freedom we enjoy will be steamrolled by the political onslaught of the Islamic machine. It is happening, Christians are not allowed to make complaints but Muslins raise bigotry complaints against all and get away with it. Time to stand up and draw the battle lines once more “Under the Southern Cross”.
All of America needs to get a better understanding of a Religious/Political Enemy.
A dedicated American citizen that has seen the major threat to the United States of America. Both books that I have read authored by this woman are compelling. Compare them with others from different parts of the Middle East that have come to the United States of America and there is excellent continuity. A very worthwhile read for anyone trying to understand the threat of a "Theocracy" (a political and theologic based enemy) needs to be understood to be appreciated. She explains the difference between the threat of the Nazi's and the politician that heads North Korea, for example. We should be VERY afraid!
A sobering book
The author puts together a well resourced book explaining the approach being implemented to subvert our culture. And it isn’t even to make us a better culture- just compliant converts. Your will or my will is of no importance or interest to them. And yet our politicians, educators, and self-anointed arbiters of political correctness are aiding, whether knowingly or unknowingly, in the accomplishment of that objective. It is for us to understand that we are at war, not proclaimed by us, but declared on us. We need to understand the tactics and our options. This is an eye-opening look into the future unless we choose to save it.
Excellent
I read this book years ago, but I remember being so very impressed by it. I later bought it as gifts for others because I was so enthused. The author is a good writer, with real experience in what she's talking about. She speaks from the heart, and she speaks strongly. Her book is a warning against Islamic terrorism, which obviously we've been fighting for sometime. She has seen things first-hand, and knows the importance of this issue. Although this book is dated, I'd still recommend it today for anyone interested in this subject.
Required reading for all freedom-loving individuals concerned, or who should be, about Islamofascism's goal of world domination.
Absolutely required reading for all freedom-loving individuals, the world over. I am late to this publication, now several years old, but the vital information contained herein regarding Islamofascism and its threat to our way of life is even more revealing and prescient in retrospect. Many reading it at the time of publication may have been inclined to discount Gabriel's predictions. Now they can be viewed as to their astounding historical accuracy. There is no time too late to read this essential source.
Well researched and informative
A fascinating but scary read. In the first chapter, the author states, "Westerners do not understand Middle Eastern culture, it's religion, Islam, and how Islam as a political and religious ideology drives and impacts every aspect of the culture and it's people." It's so true. Middle Eastern culture and Western culture are so different, and what makes Brigitte's book so insightful is that she explains why Muslims think and act the way they do. She clarifies they many versions of Islam and even why Muslims fight against each other. Overall the book is very well researched and highly informative.
America Wake Up!
Another piece of jewel containing the facts and wisdom needed by every American to know what is at stake. If Americans don’t wake up soon to the reality and truth of what Islam teaches, we will soon be history. I know 100% that what Gabriel is writing in this book is accurate and trustable information. She is telling it like it is without any bias and with a heart of concern and love. A must read for every American who loves freedom!
Sobering
Ms Gabriel presents her views of extremist Muslim theology in a clear and concise manner. She speaks with authority having lived through the horrors in Lebanon brought on by extremism. She explains why Western thought is at a disadvantage with the teachings of Muslim extremism and how Muslim extremism is infiltrating western society not only in America but in any other society not ruled by Muslim law. This book will open anyone's eyes to the dangers that exist in the world where devout, extreme Muslims want to literally take over the world at any cost to make Islam the only religion and will lie to and kill anyone or any society that gets in their way. A must read for all who value freedom and liberty.
