Biography

Speaking as a native Arab and a professional journalist, Brigitte Gabriel offers a first hand account of her personal experiences
in the opening salvos of Islamic Jihad towards the Western world in the Middle East. Ms. Gabriel grew up in South Lebanon as the
only child of a retired Christian governing administrator of the region and a successful businessman. Her Arabic society, culture
and media taught her that Israel and Jews were the devil. As she turned 10, war broke out pitting the combined forces of militant
Moslems and Palestinians against the Christian Lebanese.
In the Lebanese civil war, Ms. Gabriel found herself in the first attack, beyond the Arab/Israel conflict, of Islamic Jihad against
non-Moslems and the West. A barrage of Moslem rockets exploded in her house leaving her wounded and buried under the rubble. Her
family lost everything and was forced to live the next seven years in an underground bomb shelter with little food, water or
electricity.
In 1982 Ms. Gabriel's mother became seriously wounded, Israel was the only place to go for medical attention. For her mother,
the trip to a hospital in Israel was a life-saving experience. For Brigitte it was a life changing experience. She saw the
Israelis demonstrate respect, humanity, compassion and generosity that she didn't know existed beyond her immediate family.
She realized she was fed nothing but a fabricated lie by her government about the Jews and the Israeli people. She had to
return to Lebanon to take care of her elderly parents but vowed that one day she would return to Israel. Brigitte kept that
promise and more. She returned to Israel two years later and started working in Jerusalem as a journalist.
A Journalist in Israel & America
Rising quickly to the position of news anchor for "World News" an evening Arabic news broadcast for Middle East Television seen
throughout Israel, Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Cyprus and Lebanon, she covered the Israeli security zone in Lebanon and the Palestinian
uprising in the West Bank. Her work is of international scope having brought her in contact with world figures such as Margaret
Thatcher, George H. Bush, Queen Nour El Hussein, Itzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres.
After marrying an American war correspondent in Jerusalem, Ms. Gabriel relocated to the United States 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.
An Urgent Warning to the West
Following the September 11th attack Ms. Gabriel founded American Congress for Truth, a non-profit organization dedicated to
inform, inspire and motivate Americans to take action against terrorism and the threat radical Islamic fundamentalists pose
to America, Israel and Western civilization. Her inside information is enlightening for unsuspecting Western-thinking audiences.
Her lectures inspire and empower audiences into taking action in order to protect America and support Israel. She has appeared
on news and information TV and radio shows and has given hundreds of lectures nationally and internationally. Her views are
seen as a pertinent warning to the West. She speaks Arabic, French, English and Hebrew.
