ANN ARBOR, MI – Brigitte Gabriel, one of the leading terrorism experts in the world and renowned New York Times bestselling author, warned of the successful cultural Jihad being waged against America by cells of radical Islamic terrorists already in the country. She characterized many of America’s leading universities as “occupied territory, ” having been infiltrated by anti-American, anti-Israel professors that dominate Middle East Studies departments funded by Saudi millions.

Her warning was made at the Thomas More Law Center’s annual Fall Event this past Tuesday evening in Birmingham, Michigan.

She spoke for over an hour warning those gathered of the threat radical Islam poses to our Nation, not just by catastrophic events like 9/11, but by the Saudi money being used to undermine our country’s Christian heritage.

Richard Thompson, President and Chief Counsel of the Thomas More Law Center who introduced Brigitte Gabriel to the audience, commented, “Brigitte is a modern-day Paul Revere, a courageous Christian women who knows firsthand the atrocities perpetrated upon Christians once radical Islam gains dominance in a country. As a young child of ten in Lebanon, she witnessed Muslim militants destroy her home. She was forced her to live with her parents in an 8’x 10’ bomb shelter for seven years. She experienced Muslim neighbors, friendly to her just a week before the attack, join forces with the Islamic militants.”

Ms. Gabriel implored the audience to financially support the Thomas More Law Center because the Law Center was the first public interest law firm, and remains the most aggressive public interest law firm, fighting the insidious threat of radical Islam in America. The audience gave her standing ovations several times during her speech.

Ms. Gabriel is the founder of ACT! for America, a non-profit organization dedicated to educating millions of uninformed citizens about the threat of radical Islam to world peace and national security. She is the author of the New York Times bestseller BECAUSE THEY HATE: A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America. Her new book, THEY MUST BE STOPPED: Why We Must Defeat Radical Islam and How We Can Do It, was released in September of this year and became a New York Times Bestseller just 4 days after its release.

Brigitte Gabriel is a member of the Board of Advisors of the Intelligence Summit and lectures nationally and internationally on terrorism and current affairs. Her expertise is sought by world and business leaders around the globe. She has addressed Australian Prime Minister John Howard, members of the British Parliament/House of Commons, members of the United States Congress, the Joint Forces Staff College, the US Special Operations Command, the FBI, and many others. In addition, Gabriel is a regular guest analyst on Fox News Channel, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, and various radio stations daily across America.
