"Because They Hate: A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America"

Today was a rainy day in Indy and I happened upon a TV Book review channel that had a guest speaker at our Joint Forces Institute at Norfolk, VA. The speaker was Brigette Gabriel, author of "Because They Hate: A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America". As I listened, yes I realize she may be right wing, but her words of warning to our military leaders were real and worth listening to. I urge you to clik on the title above and follow the link to YouTube to listen to Brigette Gabriel and her experiences and her warning to America. There are several segments there to clik on.
