Book Review: Rise In Defense of Judeo-Christian Values and Freedom




I heard conservative Author and activist Brigitte Gabriel on a televised talk show and I grew curious when she mentioned her latest book, Rise In Defense of Judeo-Christian Values and Freedom.  I learned that it’s now available in public libraries but not that easy to obtain.  The author stated the wait may be lengthy since the left-leaning government protects the truth from Americans.    I waited a long two months for the book but it may be because it’s full of facts and some chapters are difficult for a reader to digest in one sitting.

The author refers to her childhood in Lebanon where, as a young Christian girl, she lived in fear of bombs as she traveled from her shelter to school in an army tank.  She knows full well the transition from prosperity to captivity under the cruelty of Isis.  Her book, Rise, spells it all out for Americans.  Terrorism is here.  It has infiltrated in our public school system, especially colleges with Marxist ideology.  Our young people are sucked into the lies of romantic images of Sharia Law through social media,Hollywood and activists who motivate young uneducated minds.  Gabriel's book explains Muslim practices of female mutilation, rape of women and even death in the name of religion.  

Gabriel exposes the evils in our government and the lack of protection of our civil rights and constitutional liberties, especially free speech.  She is right; if you disagree with the liberals, you are labeled a racist.    She quotes compelling facts that I never heard in the news and she explains why.  I liked the end of each chapter where Gabriel lists practical suggestions for Americans to act on to protect our country from the evil that has slowly permeated into our society.    

My favorite quote from her book is "America is not made up of immigrants.  America is made up of citizens."  What makes America great is when people come to it with good intentions to assimilate into our society and offer solid work ethics and family values.  This is a stark contrast to liberal lawmakers trying to convince us to open our borders and allow anyone free entry without a vetting process.  Compassionate Americans who think we should allow anyone entry into our country need to read this book.  

Americans need to be educated.  We are warned.  Now is the time to act before it's too late.
