Summary:
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.

This book is a real eye-opener! Every American voter and especially every politician should read this book! Ms Gabriel makes it clear that complacency is very dangerous for our country and will ultimately lead to it's downfall. Very informative and educational, yet an easy read.
3.5 Stars: Moral Clarity, Poor Phrasing, A Few False Statements
Customer Rating:
A few points:
1) Brigitte Gabirel has moral clarity in this fight against Islamofascism. She has the advantage of coming from a background -- she is a Christian from Lebanon -- that gives her a unique insight into the dangers of Islamic intolerance. She understands the stakes and is ready to stand up for Western civilization.
2) This book is a good primer on Islam's contempt for women, the (imperialist, pedophile) prophet Muhammad, the 'stealth jihad' in Europe, America, and South America, and the Arab world's difficult time moving into the modern world. However, sometimes she makes the dire error of substituting the word 'Muslims' for 'Islam.' We must remember that most Muslims are not hardliners or literalists. Whether they are on solid theological grounding or not, most Muslims around the world do not seek to harm us. However, as Gabriel rightly points out: there were plenty of moderate Germans. A fat lot of good that they did us. Still, that did not make moderate Germans Nazis, and not all Muslims are Islamofascists.
3) There is one glaring piece of misinformation: Gabriel keeps asserting that Sunni groups such as al-Qaeda are dedicated to seeing the "Muslim Messiah" (huh?) the Mahdi (the 12th imam of Shi'a Islam) return. She mindlessly lumps in Hezbollah, Hamas, al-Qaeda, and the Iranian regime, which, she claims, inspired the modern jihad by radicals. Although the four have a tangled web together, it is absolute nonsense to say that al-Qaeda and Hamas are adherents to Twelver Shi'ism. The Mahdi is (1) Not the "Islamic Messiah," and (2) Not a part of Sunni Islam. Besides this glaring error -- really, you can skip Chapter 6 for this reason -- the book is pretty much spot-on, if sometimes a bit general.
3.5 stars. Rated 3 to pull down the average.
Recommended, with a grain of salt.
Keep up the good work Brigitte
Customer Rating:
This is indeed a great book and it's a must read for everyone! Radical Islam is the greatest threat to international security and national security that we are facing and it must be stopped!
Before it's too late?
Customer Rating:
This should be (another) wake up call to the civilized world. How many will we get, I wonder? My fear is that we will ignore this warning as we have all the others. If we follow our usual pattern we will dither and bumble along as we are now until the situation becomes desperate, then expend hundreds of billions of dollars in wealth and millions of lives to stop a disaster that could have been prevented at much lower cost by heeding Brigitte Gabriel's warning. Or, even worse, wait until it's too late and find ourselves paying the jizyah or converting to Islam at the point of a sword and, in either case, living under Sharia.
