The Druze people of Syria are suffering at the hands of Islam. The Christians and Druze of Syria are being butchered and cast aside by the world. Where is the moral outrage from those who scream Free Palestine? Do we not care about the women and children being raped and tortured? The men being forced to jump to their death from the roof of their own homes? Today we are graced with an amazing guest Dame Brigitte Gabriel, who is herself a survivor of Islamic terror. You think it can't happen here... you're wrong.

Speaker 1 (00:04):
This is the Rogue Reecap with Linda McLaughlin. She's unfiltered, unforgiving,
and understandably annoyed by everyone. Make sure you like and
subscribe to her a podcast and follow her on x
at Rogue Reecap.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Welcome everybody to the Rogue Recap. I am Linda MacLaughlin,
your host, and I'm super stoked today. As you guys know,
I normally do my show so low, but today I'm
here with Royalty. Actually, Dame Brigitte Gabrielle is with us,
and she's a really good friend of mine, so I'm
fortunate to just call her Brigitte. But it's just fun
because she is a dame and she's been knighted in
(00:40):
Europe by Malta, right, Brigitte.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Yeah, I've been nighted in Europe twenty sixteen.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Yeah, so's kind of a big deal. Not to mention
the fact that she is a survivor of some of
the most horrific things one could ever possibly imagine, and
she's one of those people that can tell us what's
actually happening in the Middle East. Little background for you,
So I met Brigitte back in two thousand and six,
give or take somehow we're both still thirty. It's incredible.
(01:08):
And she was one of these people who when I
met her, she was so humble about what she had
been through. She was Elevenese Christians, she lived underground, she
learned underground, She spoke Arabic and Hebrew and English. And
here she was telling people what it was like to
survive this Islamic takeover that was happening eleven On at
(01:30):
the time of her childhood, and actually lived to tell
the tale, which is so amazing because so many don't
make it. And that's what we're seeing today with what's
happening in Syria, between Swaeia and Damascus and in Syria,
and we have Jelani acting like, oh no, it's nothing,
it's not a big deal. It's just internal strife. No
big deal, right, That's why we need the Israeli defense
forces to come over and help us. But so few
(01:53):
people are talking about it. And I feel like it
should be screamed from the hilltops, because these are our
brothers and sisters, these are people of Christ. They are
over there. They are being butchered, mascreed, raped, killed, and
we're not paying attention. But one person is speaking louder
than anybody, and that's Brigitte. So Brigit wrote this book
because they hate and understanding it all. And I read
(02:14):
it and I have to say it has stayed with
me for twenty years and I have never forgotten all
the things that I read about her. We've become wonderful friends.
And I invite her to the show today. Welcome to
the world Recap Brigitte.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Look, Dad, I'm so excited to be with you. This
is so exciting. Congratulation on your show. Yeah da, Oh
my goodness. I mean, you know, usually gonna be talked
on the phone. We get to see each other.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
This is you each other. I see you all about
I see you all the time. Your beautiful face is
all over TV. You know, my voice is on radio
and my accent goes with it. But you I see
all the time. Always trying to sort of educate people
because I think there's a gross misunderstanding and a true
lack of just how serious what is happening in the middle.
(03:00):
And I feel like people are like, oh, it's over there,
It's not over there, it's here. It's here in Texas,
it's here in New York, Minnesota and Michigan. And if
you think for one second that this can't happen here.
Then I would love to live in the fantasy island
you're on. If you're taking tickets, please, I'd love admission.
It's insane that people do not understand how serious this is,
(03:24):
and so I really wanted two things. I would love
for you to just give your background a little bit.
What it was like for you growing up being this
person with just your parents underneath. I mean, the story
is crazy, living underneath and hiding and only getting a
little bit of air at night when they couldn't see you,
and hoping they didn't see you, and hiding. I mean,
just give us a little bit of background on you,
(03:44):
because I really think people would love to know that.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Thank you, Linda Well, it's an honor to be with you,
and thank you for asking that question. Because a lot
of people see me on t V common Tygnews, and
a lot of people do not know my background. They
just think I'm just another political pundit talking about the
Middle East issues. Well, I'm not only an expert on
the Middle East. I'm a survivor. I'm an eyewitness to
(04:07):
terror who lived to tell about it. I was born
and raised in Lebanon, which used to be Paris of
the Middle East. There's another thing that people do not
know when they think of Lobanon. They think of this
terrorist country controlled by hosbald Law, controlled by Iran. They
don't realize that this actually happened in my lifetime. And so,
you know, we were open minded, we were fair, we
(04:27):
were tolerant, we were multicultural. I was born into a
wealthy Christian family. My father was a businessman. I'm an
only child. I was raised to parents who loved me,
adored me, gave me the best education. We had a
great life. Unfortunately, all that began to change when we
imported people into our country who did not share our values.
(04:48):
Lobanon was the only country to in the Middle East
to import the third wave of Palestinian refugees, even when
the Arabic Brotherren did not want them. We took them
in because we were Christians, because we were open minded,
because we were tolerant and fair and wanted to do
to others what other people do to us. We wanted
(05:10):
to be God's message to them. And unfortunately, once they
came to Lebanon, they put their heads together with the
Islamist and Lebanon, and that's what the tescale, the balance
between the Christians and the Muslim population and Lebanon. Nine
one one, my nine to eleven happened to me in
nineteen seventy five when the combined forces of the Palestinians
(05:32):
and the Muslims blew up my home, bringing it down,
burning me under the rebel wounded. I ended up in
a hospital for two and a half years and going
from one surgery to another, and I would ask my
father why did they do this to us? And my
father would tell me because we are Christians. The Muslims
consider us infidels and they want to kill us. So
(05:56):
I learned since I was a ten year old little
girl that I I am wanted dead simply because I
was born into the Christian faith and lived in a
Christian town. I ended up leaving the hospital and coming
back home, but my home was no longer the home
I left. I ended up living underground in an eight
(06:16):
by ten room, without electricity, without water, and very little food.
And that's where I lived for the next seven years
of my life. Robbed of my youth from the age
of ten till the age of seventeen, and so during
the years of the bomb shelter, we didn't have any food.
(06:37):
You know, the Islamist and Palestinians cut off all food
supply to our region. We would crawl under the bombs
and we would dig out different dandelions and different vegetation,
different greenery that grew around our bomb shelter. It was
the only salads we had to eat. To get some water,
we would crawl under sniper's bullets. We were surrounded by
(06:59):
a slow snipers. And I come from a town called
Marja Yun, the Valley of Springs, and we had many
springs in my town, and we had a spring five
five minutes from my house, and we would crawl in
a ditch trying to get to the spring to get
some water. And before we left our bomb shelter, we
would say our last goodbye is because we did not
(07:21):
know if we're gonna come back alive or dead, just
to get a drink of water. And this became my existence.
I remember at the beginning of the war, my father
would say, oh, well, you know, the Christian nations are
gonna come save the Christians in Lebanon, America is gonna come,
France is gonna come, Australia is gonna come, England is
gonna come, Canada is gonna come. Nobody came. The world
(07:43):
forgot about us. We were a blurb on the news
or we were on the nightly news in the world
for the first one month two months, and then the
world forgot because it was not affecting them. It was
happening over there. Nobody cared. Well, the world had become
so small, Linda, that today, because of the Internet, because
of world travel, what used to be over there is
(08:06):
now worldwide. And nine to eleven two thousand and one
was a wake up call to the West, not just
the United States, because the attack on the World Trade
Center in two thousand and one was just not an
attack against America. That was an attack against the Judeo
Christian foundation and principles that were the foundation of Western civilization.
(08:28):
That's when the islam Is to organize, the mobilized with
a figurehead Osamaban Laden and al Qaira, sharing their ideology
and spreading their certainly ideology worldwide. That united them against
the West. And you and I have been talking about this,
we've been working together. You know, it's like, you know what,
when we were talking before we went on the air.
You and I have been talking about this for twenty years, Linda,
(08:51):
twenty years, and we're still talking about the same thing
because Americans did not want to believe us back then.
They thought, there's no way this be happening in America.
There is no way these ideologies will take hold in America.
America is a Juday, a Christian nation, patriotic nation. They
not only to hold in our country, but right now
(09:11):
we are seeing demonstrations on the streets of New York,
of la of Atlanta, of any major city in the
United States, Chicago, screaming a death to the Jews in
our lifetime. By the way, Holocauster vibers are still walking
around and we are talking about the killing and the
massacres of Christians in the Middle East.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
That's right, and here's and thank you so much for that,
and thank you for letting the audience know, because I
think the folks that listen to the Roade Recap want
to know the truth. We're the type of people that
want to help, that want to be involved. And I
agree with you just like they were saying, then, this
could never happen in America. Not only is it happening.
(09:53):
It's happening with funding, organization, signs outfits, supplies weekly salaries.
You want to know why these people can protest, You
want to know why they can end up in front
of the White House. I mean they are the Democratic
Party of Socialists, the money from China, the money from sorrows.
And I'm like, people don't understand. And here's the thing.
(10:16):
There are a lot of independent citizen journalists that go
out to these various demonstrations and they'll say to people,
which river, which see, why are you here? Who are
you protesting? Donald Trump? He's a fascist? Got it? Okay?
Do you know what fascist means? What does that mean
to you? I'm not even asking for the real definition,
just what does it mean to you? Because you're saying
(10:36):
the word and they don't know, So then when you
tell them. It's interesting because I'm actually surprised that we're
not hearing more about what's happening in Tweida and in
Damascus because of the fact that the idea of is helping.
I'm like, oh, great, even if we get negative press,
let's get some press on what's happening to the DRUS,
because at least then we would get awareness, and people go,
(10:58):
wait a minute, that doesn't look right. I mean they're
taking When I saw that one elderly man, it's circulating
all over X and I know you know what I'm
talking about, So the Jews people, and you can correct
me if I'm wrong, because you're the expert here. When
they grow their facial hair, it's a sign of masculinity
and deity and its pride. So they're capturing these men
(11:22):
and before they kill them, they humiliate them in front
of their communities by shaving their facial hair, knowing that
it's humiliation. Then they rape their wives or their daughters
in front of them. Then they kill them. And they're
killing them in horrific ways like people are. It's not
like it's like a simple shot to the head and boom,
it's over. They're jumping to their death from roofs. They
(11:42):
are killing them by throwing them out their windows. They're
stabbing them, they're beating them up, they're dragging them down
the street. They're setting them on fire, like to your point,
they fire bombed your house, Like, these are not a
peaceful people. They have been raised that the Koran has
taught them that they they are in the right to
spread Islam by any means necessary. And the tolerant left
(12:07):
is super tolerant of the rage filled Islam. But Christians
and Republicans and Conservatives, and I'm gonna be honest with you, Brigitte,
I hate them all. I say this all the time.
It's us against them. There's the elite in Congress and
then there's us. When I look at some of these
people that are running some of these states and they're
in congressional seats and Senate seats, and I'm like, oh
my god, what is the point of having the majority
(12:30):
if you're not going to do anything with it? You know,
for those of you listening right now, Brigitte has hundreds
of bills she's trying to codify to help the president.
She says, a little help, just vote yes, codify so
that the president's actions actually become law and they can't
be unchanged. How much trouble are you having with that?
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Well, look, here's the thing. We know that elected officials
understand one thing and one thing only, and that's pressure.
Why because I want to get reelected. You know, I
always tell people there are two types of people in Congress.
There are the people on the right, and we know
exactly who they are. And there are the people on
the left, and we know exactly who they are. You know,
those are the ones who dig their heels down. By golly,
(13:12):
you know they're not going to change their opinion. But
the majority of people in Congress are those in the
middle of home I called sincerely undecided. And what I
mean by that is they lick their finger, stick it
up in the air and see how the wind is blowing.
So we created that. I mean by we Act for America,
my organization the biggest wind mill machine. Because if they're
(13:33):
not willing to see the light, we're going to make
them feel the heat. So what we do would Act
for America. And you know, you and I have been
talking about my grassroots organization for years. We created a
huge grassroots organization nationwide. We monitor all bills coming down
for a vote. We work on introducing the bills that
we monitor, bills even that we did not introduce, but
(13:54):
other members of Congress introduced, and we send an actual
alert to our members and we say, called your elected
official about this bill, bill whatever. It's an example HR
one two five three coming down for about about blah
blah blah, blah, whatever the bill is. We want you
to call your elected official. It's coming down for a
vout that's going to be voted on next week. We
have an email prepared for them, we have social media
(14:16):
possets prepared for them. We give them their elected officials
phone number and a script that they can read off
the computer while they're calling a lot of people. A
lot of times people do not take action, Linda, is
because people do not know what to say, They didn't
know what to write. Oh my gosh. I don't want
to sound stupid. I'm talking to an electric official. But
we are mobilizing people and we are making things happen.
(14:38):
I'm proud to tell you that today we have passed
three hundred bills at the federal level, understand level, and
right now we have one hundred bills in Congress going
through the process because we are trying to qualify as
many executive orders as we can for that President Trump signed.
You know, he signed over one hundred and seventy executive order,
(14:59):
so we are already past about thirty one. So we
want to qualify the rest before the next bit term
election because we're not sure we're gonna win the bit term.
So I tell people all the time, make sure you
are engaged, and you know you touched on that. I
ask Republicans are you engaged? And they say, oh, absolutely appreciate.
I listen to talk radio every day. I watch Fox
(15:21):
News or news Max or whatever you call it. You know,
I listen to one Nation. I attend Seepack, Turning Point,
whatever conference. I'm a member of the whatever Republican party.
We show up once a month. You're a great speaker,
eat the Rubbert Chicken, and then everybody goes home and
nobody knows what to do. Seven days later, they have
no idea what to do. You stop a leftist, young
(15:44):
nitwit who's a socialist twenty two years old. Tell them,
tell me why you're a socialist. They can't even define
socialism for you. But by golly, they are engaged. They
are showing up at their Electric officials office. They are lobbying.
And that's the difference between interns, entertainment going to conferences,
entertainment belonging to a Republican club. Eating the Robert Chicken
(16:05):
wants someone's listening to speak, or that's entertainment. Listening to
talk radio. It's entertainment that does not impact policy. There's
a big difference between activism and entertainment. What we do
is activism. So I encourage people right now listening to
this podcast. If my message resonates with you and you
really want to make an impact, go to act for
(16:27):
America dot org right now. Sign up to receive our
action alerts and take action on our act now campaign.
We made it so easy you can take action seven
am in the morning, sitting in your pajama, sipping your
cup of coffee in front of your computer, with one
click of a button. That's how together we can make
a difference.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
So, ladies and gentlemen, if you missed it, and how
could you, it's act for America dot org. It is
an amazing organization. I am on the newsletter list. She
is not kidding. They definitely help you. They give you
all the answers that you need so that you can
make the right calls and say the things.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Because you know that one thing I want to add,
you know we are not lacking education. We have never
had more education and lifetime. You go to the internet,
you type in the word capitalism, you got sixty thousand pages.
You type in socialism, you got sixty thousand pages. We
have never had more information than we have today. But
(17:22):
people do not know what to do. They are they
hear information, They got more frustrated than they say, tell
me what to do. I do not know what to do.
And the reason why we created our act now campaigns
and the reason why we want to put pressure on
Congress and people tell me why should I call Brigitte?
My phone call is not that I mean anything. My
congressman needs to hear from fifty thousand people, forty to
(17:43):
fifty thousand people before they do anything wrong. I have
been working with Congress for twenty five years. Now, here's
how the system works. On the federal level. All they
need to hear from is forty to fifty people. That's it,
forty to fifty people to make a bill their top priority.
And here's the science behind the numbers. They believe one
(18:04):
phone call or email represent one thousand voters. They believe
if one person makes a phone call or sends an email,
he or she are representing one thousand coach potatoes who
feel the same way but are too lazy to make
a phone call or send an email, yet they vote
on election day. That translates to forty to fifty thousand
(18:26):
voters on election day. Most people don't know that, Linda.
Most of our base is not educated on activism. They
are educated on the issues. They want to learn as
much as they can on capitalism and how government works
and how capitalism works, but they're not learning how to
impact policy. Then LEFT teaches people on how to impact policy.
(18:48):
Their end goal is impacting policy. Our end goal is
educating the message. They need to be informed about what's
going on. No, no, no, no, no, you don't need
this much information. Is this much information and weaponizing it
against elected officials to impact policy? And that's the difference
between ACT for America and what we do as an
(19:11):
organization and every other organization out there educating on the issues.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
So let me ask you something. With a situation like
what we have in Syria, the lack of coverage that
we have, what do you think are the next steps
so that we can bring awareness and we can do
what we need to do so that we can make
a difference and we can help those people. What is
it that we.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
Can do well with the situation in Syria? Education? We
need to ask ourselves what is the purpose of the education,
And you go back to impacting policy. We want our
government to basically lower the hammer on Jiulani, the head
of Syria, to stop the massacres because remember Julani, this
(19:57):
is the baby child of Isis and al Qaedra. Just
because he put a suit on and flew to Europe
and took a picture with all world leaders standing there,
and you know, all of a sudden, or flew to
Saudi Arabia and now all of a sudden, we're gonna
recognize this guy as a moderate. Zebras do not change
their stripes and Islamist la Jelani, who is the baby
(20:19):
child of Isis on al Qaida, use a term called takiya.
Takiya is a law practice under Islam where in the
time of war you can lie to your enemy as
long as you are advancing because of Islam. Actually the
Koran approves of it, commands it. You can actually lay
your hand on the Koran and swear you are telling
(20:41):
the truth and nothing but the truth, knowing you are
lying in order to advance your cause. So what Julani
in Syria is practicing right now is takiya. So what
he's trying to do this is ethnic cleansing. What we
are watching in Syria right now, and what we need
our government to understand is that you need to do
(21:01):
something to apply pressure on Julani to stop the massacres
or we will bring back the sanctions on Syria because
that's the only language he will understand. And so this
is what we're trying to do right now with Congress.
We are actually working at the Action Alert right now
to go out to our members and the masses, and
I hope everybody signs up and I hope everybody shares
(21:23):
the Act Now campaign when the article goes out to
our full membership to apply pressure on our government to
put pressure on Julani that unless you are gonna stop
the murders and the ethnic cleansing, we're gonna put the
sanctions back, because America is not gonna sit down and
tell you, Okay, you're a good govern gonna lift the sanctions.
(21:45):
If you're gonna massacre people like killing cattle, that is unacceptable.
They're actually killing cattle. At least you do it mercifully.
What they are doing to the Drusalem, the Christians in
Syria is barbaric. This is Barbara's This is isis to point.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Out and here's my question to you, and I'm thrilled
to hear that that. Obviously I knew that, you know,
ACT for America was obviously already doing something. But what
I am concerned about, and this is, this is really
what bothers me and keeps me up at night. There
is no age too young, no child, no elderly person.
(22:20):
There's no one that's left unscathed by radical Islam. You know,
I was just saying to my mom earlier today. I
was like, you know, I look at these people and
they'll say to me, oh, you know, this is going
to create Aslamophobia. I'm like, it's not Aslamophobia when every
time I turn around, it's people that are pushing a
narrative of Islam, pushing hate and murder and rape and
(22:43):
brutal massacre. I mean, you can say whatever you want
about the Hasidic community, about you know, the IDF. I
don't know regular Christians in America, they're not out there
leading a cause. You know, as a Christian, we're not
leaving the crusades. You know, people aren't running around with
the torah screaming. You know, I'll have your head. It's
(23:05):
just not happening. And if it is please let us know.
I'd love to know, but it's just not happening. What
is happening is that we have a guy in Minnesota
as a Somali running for mayor, saying that white people
are the biggest problem in America. We have a guy
who is I don't even know what he is. I
don't think he knows what he is. He's from Uganda,
(23:27):
his mom's Indian. You know. I honestly, nothing about Mamdani
makes sense to me. Honestly, he's in Africa right now.
I'm like, okay, so why are you in Africa? Why
are you in Africa right now? The scariest part is
that people are behind him and they're like, oh my gosh,
AOC and mom Donnie would be such a great ticket.
I'm like, oh my god, what are you? Not not
(23:51):
only her, but dumb and dumber these two people. Here's
the other thing to your point. We have never been
more educated. We have people that I call them career students.
They are They've got their MBAs and their mbs and
their PhDs and how many letters do you need? Right?
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (24:11):
They have zero life experience. They've never run a business,
they've never been in trouble. They've never been on the
end of that which they profess. So they're telling you they'
I mean, of all people, AOC is from a rich suburb, mom,
Donnie's mom and dad. You know, she's Bollywood. He's a
professor at Columbia. You know, I don't know what the
Somali kid's about, but I know he's got more money
(24:32):
than God coming at him for his campaign. And we
are not We're not paying attention. I mean, they're building
a sharial wall complex in Texas. In Texas long we
are Cornyn and Cruise and Abbott allowing this. I'm like, guys,
what is happening.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
They've been a sleepland in Texas. They have been asleep. Look,
and you know, my organization started passing laws called American
Laws for American Courts, and we started passing it in
two thousand and nine, and we said, okay, we're not
going to say Sharia courts because we want American businesses
who are doing business in England or who are doing
(25:11):
business with French companies or Australian company or New Zealand company,
if they get into litigation, as long as their laws
are compatible with American courts. We have the problem with that.
So we introduced to law that says no law that
is not compatible with the US Constitution should be allowed
to be used in American court room. And the reason
why we did that is because we documented one hundred
(25:33):
and forty three cases where shariala was used in an
American court room instead of the Constitution of the United States.
By two thousand and nine, we're talking how many years ago.
This is not like yesterday. And the first Sharia court
was introduced in Richardson, Texas, ten years prior to nine eleven,
(25:54):
ten years prior to nine eleven. In nineteen ninety one,
Sariola was introduced in Texas. In Texas led the nation
and introducing sharia law in America. And I remember when
we were trying to introduce American laws for American court
Texas was the toughest state. We could not pass it
in Texas until twenty seventeen. We started in two thousand
(26:14):
and nine the state House. All the state legislators in
Texas would not touch it. The state legislatures in Texas
between two thousand and nine and twenty seventeen would not
touch the law or pass a law that said the
Constitution is the law of the land, and no other
law that's not compatible with the Constitution should be allowed
to be practiced in America. That was Texas the biggest.
(26:37):
We had easier problem passing it in Washington State than
we did in Texas. Why because Texans are asleep. And
when I would travel to Texas and I would speak,
and I would go all over Texas, and I would
speak all over Texas, people did not want to listen.
And I sat down with Tea bone Pickens. I remember
being sitting with t bone Pickens. God's he's no lover
(26:58):
with us, you know. And I'm telling him this is
what's happening at the state legislators. And he would call
the state legislators because I knew he was funding all
of them. And I would tell him all these acts
for America people are crazy. Now, nothing like this we
need to worry about in Texas. I remember sitting with
Ross Perou in two thousand and seven, two thousand and eight,
I remember sitting with what's his name, Norman Brinker. I
(27:22):
can go down the list of all the local in
Texas who are no longer with us. God bless their
souls in heaven. But nobody wanted to pay attention to
what was happening in Texas because they could not believe
it happens here. Well, this is your warning. You know,
they say, Linda twenty years and overnight success text twenty years.
(27:42):
They didn't get to this point because they just started yesterday.
They've been building for over twenty years. Americans have been
asleep or they did not want to listen because they
did not want to be called islamophobes or racist. And
you Knowland that you and I have been working together
for over twenty years now, and when I would speak up,
people would say, oh, brigit, Gabrielle islamophobe. If you google
(28:04):
my name on Google, the first thing you'll see is
the Southern Poverty Law Center, the ADL. Everybody calling me
islamophobe because I've been sounding the alarm and on the
Republican side before until President Trump, until basically four years ago,
the Republicans did not want to touch anybody that was
controversial because nobody wants to be called the bigot or
(28:25):
a racist or anything else. Well, today we are all
in the same boat. If you are prosecutor border you're
a bigot anti brown people. If you are pro police,
you are anti black people. If you are for whatever
you are, we're all in the same boat. We are
white supremacists, biggots, racists, you name it. The label doesn't
mean anything anymore. But finally America woke up, and it's
(28:48):
too late. It's now now. We've got cancer at stage
four spreading throughout America, and now more than ever, we
all need to come together, work together, and work together effectively.
The time for education is over. Now is the time
for action. And that's why I ask people go to
Act for America dot org right now, join us and
(29:08):
support us. We didn't name the organization Think about America
or Hope for America, oh pray for America, but we
named it what Act for America because you can think
and help and pray, but without action, nothing changes.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
I don't mean to laugh, but honestly, it's just wonderful.
It's so great. I love it. It's great, it's true
and it's great and I love it. So let me
let me ask you as we wrap up here, and
I can't thank you enough for being with us today
here at the road recap. And I know the audience
is going to freak when they get to hear you,
but I'm just curious. So, you know, as a survivor,
(29:46):
you know, what would you recommend for us to do
to help the Jewish people, to help the Christians in Syria?
What do you think needs to happen next so that
we can help these poor people.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
We need to take a strong stance and against Julani,
who is now the president of Syria. We need to
make sure we understand that we are dealing with an enemy.
This is not a friend. Zebras do not change their stripes.
America needs to take strong action in bringing bank the
sanction or whatever President Trump and he's not security team,
(30:18):
and believe me, I'm talking in their ears. Whatever needs
to be done to be able to let this guy
understand that America will come so hard down on you
and we'll do whatever we need to do in Syria
to bring back order because we're not going to allow
you to have a massacre under our watch. And this
is the type of pressure, this is the type of
(30:40):
action that our government needs to do. Look, I remember
growing up in Lobanon, and America allowed husband a lot
to continues. You know when HSBA lap blew up the
marine barracks and Lebanon in nineteen eighty three, a barraka
tacktailed between its legs and left, and look at what
happened in Lobanon. Twenty five years later, Hosba Lap became
the strongest terrorist organization in the world, stronger than al Qaida.
(31:02):
And so it's much easier to deal with the threat
right when it's a baby than to deal with it
when it's goliath, like what we are dealing with. We
do not want the resurrection of the Islamic State or
al Qaira again in Syria. Syria is about to fracture,
and our government needs to understand that we need to
keep our finger on Syria, we need to keep our
(31:25):
eyes on Syria, and we need to take whatever action
necessary to stop the killing.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
So I think to that point, there's a few things
that I want to close with. Number One, there is
Christian genocide happening all over the world. Yes, we're seeing
it in Africa, We're seeing it in Syria, we're seeing
it in Iraq. People are asleep at the switch, just
like when we attacked Iran a few weeks ago and
people are like, why are we getting involved. I'm like, well,
(31:52):
this is the head of the snake and the people,
you know, the regular average citizens of these countries, many
of them are looking for freedom. I mean, even when
you look at what's happening in Gaza, you know, and
you see these people coming, they're getting humanitarian aid, not
from Palestine, They're getting it from Israel and from the
United States. And then the Hamas leaders are coming, the
(32:14):
terrorists are coming. They're taking the humanitarian aid, they're killing
those who try and come and get it for free.
Then they're taking it off to some market in the
middle and selling it back to these poor, starving people
who just need a little bit of flour, rice or water.
And nobody's reporting on this stuff. So I feel like
there's three things that need to happen. Number One, Americans
need to get They need to get smart. They need
to get smart, and they need to stop watching the
(32:37):
left wing lunatics who literally just had TDS all day.
I mean, listen, I don't think that Trump is the
best thing ever, you know, on every single issue, but overall,
I think he's doing a pretty good job. It took
a really long time to you know, mess the country
up between Obama and Biden and Clinton. God bless him.
You know he's six months in, he's doing all right.
And then the next thing we need to do is
(32:57):
we need to get involved with organizations like yours. And
I think the last thing that we need to do
is we need to stop just looking at one piece
of information or one source of information. It needs to
come from a breath of information. If you watch CNN,
then please watch news Max or Fox News. If you
read the New York Times, then please read the Epoch Times.
(33:17):
There's got to be a balance because people are so misinformed.
And when I see little girls, little Yazdi girls and
Drew's girls beaten and raped, some as young as seven
and eight, it's really sick. And you think it's only
happening there. We have all this happening. We have female
genital mutilation happening in Minnesota and Michigan. We have Sharia
(33:38):
complexes in Texas. We have two Muslims running in two
major cities that are downright, outright saying we hate white people.
We're done, defund the police, defund ice socialism, government run
this in that week up, it's enough. It's not going
to work. Yeah, it's never gonna work.
Speaker 3 (33:55):
And becoming engaged, and if I said one thing lend
that people think, oh, I voted, I've done my job.
Now I don't have to do anything for another two
years and tell the midterm. They don't realize that the
work starts the day after we win the election, because
that's your window of opportunity to get things done and
to prepare for your next battle, which is the mid
(34:17):
term or the presidency. The Left is in a continuous
phase of growth and activism. They don't take a break.
They win the election, they say, okay, what can we
done now to pass our agenda. They lose an election,
they continue organizing. Okay, we've got to win it back.
Our side votes on election day, and then goes to sleep.
(34:37):
You cannot sleep because there's a lot of things that
happen between election. Between the election, the mid term and
the presidential that's when actually things get done. That's the
day to day policy activism that affects your life on
every level, at the state level, at the local level.
(34:57):
All these decisions are made once every two years. They
are made every day, and that's where your activism and
engagement become very very important. So, yes, you need to
be informal issues. Yes you need to listen to talk radio.
You need to join a group in your local community
to be empowered, to have the fellowship, to feel like
I'm not crazy. I have other people who believe the
(35:19):
same way I do. But you also need to be
engaged in an activist organization that is making an impact. Remember,
the end goal is impacting policy. You know, effective is
my favorite word in the English language. Effective. I wanted
to think about that. All of you listen to be
right now effective At the end of the day, I
(35:42):
want you to ask yourself after you listen to talk radio,
you watched your podcasts, you watch everything, you just finished
eating your dinner, you're sitting in front of the TV.
You need to ask yourself as you're getting frustrated watching
the evening news, what have I done today to be effective? Conviction,
not just be entertained, but effective. I want you to
(36:05):
remember that word tonight, tomorrow night, every other night. I
want you to remember those words.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
If you want to be effective, you should go to
act for America dot or org and sign up so
that you could get involved. I think that's the right
way to start.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Right, that's right exactly. Sign emails an actual alert. They
don't cost you anything. They are free. We monitor bills
coming down for a vote. We notify you when they
are coming down for a vote. Stand with us as
a member. Become a member of Act for America. Sign
up to become a member. If you are a major
donor with a five oh one foundation, support us. We
(36:38):
are a nonprofit organization. You can even get a tax
deductible a business you're looking to sponsor somebody, it's a
tax deductible. Look, businesses are always looking for tax deductible donations.
Better than to make an impact with an organization that's
impacting your business. This is where we need to work
smarter as people coming together on the right side, on
the conservative side, and work together so we can all
(37:01):
move in one direction. That's what the left does. That's
exactly what we need to do.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
Britgie Gabriel, thank you for being with us today. I
can't thank you enough. It's always wonderful to see you.
We'll have her back. I'm gonna twist a rarm and
make her come back again. This is Linda McLaughlan. You
are listening to the recap. We can't thank you enough
for being here with us. We will see you next time.
Make sure to like subscribe and do all those fun
things so we can keep talking to you and follow
us at Roade, Recap at Linda Mick and have a
(37:28):
good night everybody.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
Thank you,
This is the Rogue Reecap with Linda McLaughlin. She's unfiltered, unforgiving,
and understandably annoyed by everyone. Make sure you like and
subscribe to her a podcast and follow her on x
at Rogue Reecap.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Welcome everybody to the Rogue Recap. I am Linda MacLaughlin,
your host, and I'm super stoked today. As you guys know,
I normally do my show so low, but today I'm
here with Royalty. Actually, Dame Brigitte Gabrielle is with us,
and she's a really good friend of mine, so I'm
fortunate to just call her Brigitte. But it's just fun
because she is a dame and she's been knighted in
(00:40):
Europe by Malta, right, Brigitte.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Yeah, I've been nighted in Europe twenty sixteen.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Yeah, so's kind of a big deal. Not to mention
the fact that she is a survivor of some of
the most horrific things one could ever possibly imagine, and
she's one of those people that can tell us what's
actually happening in the Middle East. Little background for you,
So I met Brigitte back in two thousand and six,
give or take somehow we're both still thirty. It's incredible.
(01:08):
And she was one of these people who when I
met her, she was so humble about what she had
been through. She was Elevenese Christians, she lived underground, she
learned underground, She spoke Arabic and Hebrew and English. And
here she was telling people what it was like to
survive this Islamic takeover that was happening eleven On at
(01:30):
the time of her childhood, and actually lived to tell
the tale, which is so amazing because so many don't
make it. And that's what we're seeing today with what's
happening in Syria, between Swaeia and Damascus and in Syria,
and we have Jelani acting like, oh no, it's nothing,
it's not a big deal. It's just internal strife. No
big deal, right, That's why we need the Israeli defense
forces to come over and help us. But so few
(01:53):
people are talking about it. And I feel like it
should be screamed from the hilltops, because these are our
brothers and sisters, these are people of Christ. They are
over there. They are being butchered, mascreed, raped, killed, and
we're not paying attention. But one person is speaking louder
than anybody, and that's Brigitte. So Brigit wrote this book
because they hate and understanding it all. And I read
(02:14):
it and I have to say it has stayed with
me for twenty years and I have never forgotten all
the things that I read about her. We've become wonderful friends.
And I invite her to the show today. Welcome to
the world Recap Brigitte.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Look, Dad, I'm so excited to be with you. This
is so exciting. Congratulation on your show. Yeah da, Oh
my goodness. I mean, you know, usually gonna be talked
on the phone. We get to see each other.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
This is you each other. I see you all about
I see you all the time. Your beautiful face is
all over TV. You know, my voice is on radio
and my accent goes with it. But you I see
all the time. Always trying to sort of educate people
because I think there's a gross misunderstanding and a true
lack of just how serious what is happening in the middle.
(03:00):
And I feel like people are like, oh, it's over there,
It's not over there, it's here. It's here in Texas,
it's here in New York, Minnesota and Michigan. And if
you think for one second that this can't happen here.
Then I would love to live in the fantasy island
you're on. If you're taking tickets, please, I'd love admission.
It's insane that people do not understand how serious this is,
(03:24):
and so I really wanted two things. I would love
for you to just give your background a little bit.
What it was like for you growing up being this
person with just your parents underneath. I mean, the story
is crazy, living underneath and hiding and only getting a
little bit of air at night when they couldn't see you,
and hoping they didn't see you, and hiding. I mean,
just give us a little bit of background on you,
(03:44):
because I really think people would love to know that.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Thank you, Linda Well, it's an honor to be with you,
and thank you for asking that question. Because a lot
of people see me on t V common Tygnews, and
a lot of people do not know my background. They
just think I'm just another political pundit talking about the
Middle East issues. Well, I'm not only an expert on
the Middle East. I'm a survivor. I'm an eyewitness to
(04:07):
terror who lived to tell about it. I was born
and raised in Lebanon, which used to be Paris of
the Middle East. There's another thing that people do not
know when they think of Lobanon. They think of this
terrorist country controlled by hosbald Law, controlled by Iran. They
don't realize that this actually happened in my lifetime. And so,
you know, we were open minded, we were fair, we
(04:27):
were tolerant, we were multicultural. I was born into a
wealthy Christian family. My father was a businessman. I'm an
only child. I was raised to parents who loved me,
adored me, gave me the best education. We had a
great life. Unfortunately, all that began to change when we
imported people into our country who did not share our values.
(04:48):
Lobanon was the only country to in the Middle East
to import the third wave of Palestinian refugees, even when
the Arabic Brotherren did not want them. We took them
in because we were Christians, because we were open minded,
because we were tolerant and fair and wanted to do
to others what other people do to us. We wanted
(05:10):
to be God's message to them. And unfortunately, once they
came to Lebanon, they put their heads together with the
Islamist and Lebanon, and that's what the tescale, the balance
between the Christians and the Muslim population and Lebanon. Nine
one one, my nine to eleven happened to me in
nineteen seventy five when the combined forces of the Palestinians
(05:32):
and the Muslims blew up my home, bringing it down,
burning me under the rebel wounded. I ended up in
a hospital for two and a half years and going
from one surgery to another, and I would ask my
father why did they do this to us? And my
father would tell me because we are Christians. The Muslims
consider us infidels and they want to kill us. So
(05:56):
I learned since I was a ten year old little
girl that I I am wanted dead simply because I
was born into the Christian faith and lived in a
Christian town. I ended up leaving the hospital and coming
back home, but my home was no longer the home
I left. I ended up living underground in an eight
(06:16):
by ten room, without electricity, without water, and very little food.
And that's where I lived for the next seven years
of my life. Robbed of my youth from the age
of ten till the age of seventeen, and so during
the years of the bomb shelter, we didn't have any food.
(06:37):
You know, the Islamist and Palestinians cut off all food
supply to our region. We would crawl under the bombs
and we would dig out different dandelions and different vegetation,
different greenery that grew around our bomb shelter. It was
the only salads we had to eat. To get some water,
we would crawl under sniper's bullets. We were surrounded by
(06:59):
a slow snipers. And I come from a town called
Marja Yun, the Valley of Springs, and we had many
springs in my town, and we had a spring five
five minutes from my house, and we would crawl in
a ditch trying to get to the spring to get
some water. And before we left our bomb shelter, we
would say our last goodbye is because we did not
(07:21):
know if we're gonna come back alive or dead, just
to get a drink of water. And this became my existence.
I remember at the beginning of the war, my father
would say, oh, well, you know, the Christian nations are
gonna come save the Christians in Lebanon, America is gonna come,
France is gonna come, Australia is gonna come, England is
gonna come, Canada is gonna come. Nobody came. The world
(07:43):
forgot about us. We were a blurb on the news
or we were on the nightly news in the world
for the first one month two months, and then the
world forgot because it was not affecting them. It was
happening over there. Nobody cared. Well, the world had become
so small, Linda, that today, because of the Internet, because
of world travel, what used to be over there is
(08:06):
now worldwide. And nine to eleven two thousand and one
was a wake up call to the West, not just
the United States, because the attack on the World Trade
Center in two thousand and one was just not an
attack against America. That was an attack against the Judeo
Christian foundation and principles that were the foundation of Western civilization.
(08:28):
That's when the islam Is to organize, the mobilized with
a figurehead Osamaban Laden and al Qaira, sharing their ideology
and spreading their certainly ideology worldwide. That united them against
the West. And you and I have been talking about this,
we've been working together. You know, it's like, you know what,
when we were talking before we went on the air.
You and I have been talking about this for twenty years, Linda,
(08:51):
twenty years, and we're still talking about the same thing
because Americans did not want to believe us back then.
They thought, there's no way this be happening in America.
There is no way these ideologies will take hold in America.
America is a Juday, a Christian nation, patriotic nation. They
not only to hold in our country, but right now
(09:11):
we are seeing demonstrations on the streets of New York,
of la of Atlanta, of any major city in the
United States, Chicago, screaming a death to the Jews in
our lifetime. By the way, Holocauster vibers are still walking
around and we are talking about the killing and the
massacres of Christians in the Middle East.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
That's right, and here's and thank you so much for that,
and thank you for letting the audience know, because I
think the folks that listen to the Roade Recap want
to know the truth. We're the type of people that
want to help, that want to be involved. And I
agree with you just like they were saying, then, this
could never happen in America. Not only is it happening.
(09:53):
It's happening with funding, organization, signs outfits, supplies weekly salaries.
You want to know why these people can protest, You
want to know why they can end up in front
of the White House. I mean they are the Democratic
Party of Socialists, the money from China, the money from sorrows.
And I'm like, people don't understand. And here's the thing.
(10:16):
There are a lot of independent citizen journalists that go
out to these various demonstrations and they'll say to people,
which river, which see, why are you here? Who are
you protesting? Donald Trump? He's a fascist? Got it? Okay?
Do you know what fascist means? What does that mean
to you? I'm not even asking for the real definition,
just what does it mean to you? Because you're saying
(10:36):
the word and they don't know, So then when you
tell them. It's interesting because I'm actually surprised that we're
not hearing more about what's happening in Tweida and in
Damascus because of the fact that the idea of is helping.
I'm like, oh, great, even if we get negative press,
let's get some press on what's happening to the DRUS,
because at least then we would get awareness, and people go,
(10:58):
wait a minute, that doesn't look right. I mean they're
taking When I saw that one elderly man, it's circulating
all over X and I know you know what I'm
talking about, So the Jews people, and you can correct
me if I'm wrong, because you're the expert here. When
they grow their facial hair, it's a sign of masculinity
and deity and its pride. So they're capturing these men
(11:22):
and before they kill them, they humiliate them in front
of their communities by shaving their facial hair, knowing that
it's humiliation. Then they rape their wives or their daughters
in front of them. Then they kill them. And they're
killing them in horrific ways like people are. It's not
like it's like a simple shot to the head and boom,
it's over. They're jumping to their death from roofs. They
(11:42):
are killing them by throwing them out their windows. They're
stabbing them, they're beating them up, they're dragging them down
the street. They're setting them on fire, like to your point,
they fire bombed your house, Like, these are not a
peaceful people. They have been raised that the Koran has
taught them that they they are in the right to
spread Islam by any means necessary. And the tolerant left
(12:07):
is super tolerant of the rage filled Islam. But Christians
and Republicans and Conservatives, and I'm gonna be honest with you, Brigitte,
I hate them all. I say this all the time.
It's us against them. There's the elite in Congress and
then there's us. When I look at some of these
people that are running some of these states and they're
in congressional seats and Senate seats, and I'm like, oh
my god, what is the point of having the majority
(12:30):
if you're not going to do anything with it? You know,
for those of you listening right now, Brigitte has hundreds
of bills she's trying to codify to help the president.
She says, a little help, just vote yes, codify so
that the president's actions actually become law and they can't
be unchanged. How much trouble are you having with that?
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Well, look, here's the thing. We know that elected officials
understand one thing and one thing only, and that's pressure.
Why because I want to get reelected. You know, I
always tell people there are two types of people in Congress.
There are the people on the right, and we know
exactly who they are. And there are the people on
the left, and we know exactly who they are. You know,
those are the ones who dig their heels down. By golly,
(13:12):
you know they're not going to change their opinion. But
the majority of people in Congress are those in the
middle of home I called sincerely undecided. And what I
mean by that is they lick their finger, stick it
up in the air and see how the wind is blowing.
So we created that. I mean by we Act for America,
my organization the biggest wind mill machine. Because if they're
(13:33):
not willing to see the light, we're going to make
them feel the heat. So what we do would Act
for America. And you know, you and I have been
talking about my grassroots organization for years. We created a
huge grassroots organization nationwide. We monitor all bills coming down
for a vote. We work on introducing the bills that
we monitor, bills even that we did not introduce, but
(13:54):
other members of Congress introduced, and we send an actual
alert to our members and we say, called your elected
official about this bill, bill whatever. It's an example HR
one two five three coming down for about about blah
blah blah, blah, whatever the bill is. We want you
to call your elected official. It's coming down for a
vout that's going to be voted on next week. We
have an email prepared for them, we have social media
(14:16):
possets prepared for them. We give them their elected officials
phone number and a script that they can read off
the computer while they're calling a lot of people. A
lot of times people do not take action, Linda, is
because people do not know what to say, They didn't
know what to write. Oh my gosh. I don't want
to sound stupid. I'm talking to an electric official. But
we are mobilizing people and we are making things happen.
(14:38):
I'm proud to tell you that today we have passed
three hundred bills at the federal level, understand level, and
right now we have one hundred bills in Congress going
through the process because we are trying to qualify as
many executive orders as we can for that President Trump signed.
You know, he signed over one hundred and seventy executive order,
(14:59):
so we are already past about thirty one. So we
want to qualify the rest before the next bit term
election because we're not sure we're gonna win the bit term.
So I tell people all the time, make sure you
are engaged, and you know you touched on that. I
ask Republicans are you engaged? And they say, oh, absolutely appreciate.
I listen to talk radio every day. I watch Fox
(15:21):
News or news Max or whatever you call it. You know,
I listen to one Nation. I attend Seepack, Turning Point,
whatever conference. I'm a member of the whatever Republican party.
We show up once a month. You're a great speaker,
eat the Rubbert Chicken, and then everybody goes home and
nobody knows what to do. Seven days later, they have
no idea what to do. You stop a leftist, young
(15:44):
nitwit who's a socialist twenty two years old. Tell them,
tell me why you're a socialist. They can't even define
socialism for you. But by golly, they are engaged. They
are showing up at their Electric officials office. They are lobbying.
And that's the difference between interns, entertainment going to conferences,
entertainment belonging to a Republican club. Eating the Robert Chicken
(16:05):
wants someone's listening to speak, or that's entertainment. Listening to
talk radio. It's entertainment that does not impact policy. There's
a big difference between activism and entertainment. What we do
is activism. So I encourage people right now listening to
this podcast. If my message resonates with you and you
really want to make an impact, go to act for
(16:27):
America dot org right now. Sign up to receive our
action alerts and take action on our act now campaign.
We made it so easy you can take action seven
am in the morning, sitting in your pajama, sipping your
cup of coffee in front of your computer, with one
click of a button. That's how together we can make
a difference.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
So, ladies and gentlemen, if you missed it, and how
could you, it's act for America dot org. It is
an amazing organization. I am on the newsletter list. She
is not kidding. They definitely help you. They give you
all the answers that you need so that you can
make the right calls and say the things.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Because you know that one thing I want to add,
you know we are not lacking education. We have never
had more education and lifetime. You go to the internet,
you type in the word capitalism, you got sixty thousand pages.
You type in socialism, you got sixty thousand pages. We
have never had more information than we have today. But
(17:22):
people do not know what to do. They are they
hear information, They got more frustrated than they say, tell
me what to do. I do not know what to do.
And the reason why we created our act now campaigns
and the reason why we want to put pressure on
Congress and people tell me why should I call Brigitte?
My phone call is not that I mean anything. My
congressman needs to hear from fifty thousand people, forty to
(17:43):
fifty thousand people before they do anything wrong. I have
been working with Congress for twenty five years. Now, here's
how the system works. On the federal level. All they
need to hear from is forty to fifty people. That's it,
forty to fifty people to make a bill their top priority.
And here's the science behind the numbers. They believe one
(18:04):
phone call or email represent one thousand voters. They believe
if one person makes a phone call or sends an email,
he or she are representing one thousand coach potatoes who
feel the same way but are too lazy to make
a phone call or send an email, yet they vote
on election day. That translates to forty to fifty thousand
(18:26):
voters on election day. Most people don't know that, Linda.
Most of our base is not educated on activism. They
are educated on the issues. They want to learn as
much as they can on capitalism and how government works
and how capitalism works, but they're not learning how to
impact policy. Then LEFT teaches people on how to impact policy.
(18:48):
Their end goal is impacting policy. Our end goal is
educating the message. They need to be informed about what's
going on. No, no, no, no, no, you don't need
this much information. Is this much information and weaponizing it
against elected officials to impact policy? And that's the difference
between ACT for America and what we do as an
(19:11):
organization and every other organization out there educating on the issues.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
So let me ask you something. With a situation like
what we have in Syria, the lack of coverage that
we have, what do you think are the next steps
so that we can bring awareness and we can do
what we need to do so that we can make
a difference and we can help those people. What is
it that we.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
Can do well with the situation in Syria? Education? We
need to ask ourselves what is the purpose of the education,
And you go back to impacting policy. We want our
government to basically lower the hammer on Jiulani, the head
of Syria, to stop the massacres because remember Julani, this
(19:57):
is the baby child of Isis and al Qaedra. Just
because he put a suit on and flew to Europe
and took a picture with all world leaders standing there,
and you know, all of a sudden, or flew to
Saudi Arabia and now all of a sudden, we're gonna
recognize this guy as a moderate. Zebras do not change
their stripes and Islamist la Jelani, who is the baby
(20:19):
child of Isis on al Qaida, use a term called takiya.
Takiya is a law practice under Islam where in the
time of war you can lie to your enemy as
long as you are advancing because of Islam. Actually the
Koran approves of it, commands it. You can actually lay
your hand on the Koran and swear you are telling
(20:41):
the truth and nothing but the truth, knowing you are
lying in order to advance your cause. So what Julani
in Syria is practicing right now is takiya. So what
he's trying to do this is ethnic cleansing. What we
are watching in Syria right now, and what we need
our government to understand is that you need to do
(21:01):
something to apply pressure on Julani to stop the massacres
or we will bring back the sanctions on Syria because
that's the only language he will understand. And so this
is what we're trying to do right now with Congress.
We are actually working at the Action Alert right now
to go out to our members and the masses, and
I hope everybody signs up and I hope everybody shares
(21:23):
the Act Now campaign when the article goes out to
our full membership to apply pressure on our government to
put pressure on Julani that unless you are gonna stop
the murders and the ethnic cleansing, we're gonna put the
sanctions back, because America is not gonna sit down and
tell you, Okay, you're a good govern gonna lift the sanctions.
(21:45):
If you're gonna massacre people like killing cattle, that is unacceptable.
They're actually killing cattle. At least you do it mercifully.
What they are doing to the Drusalem, the Christians in
Syria is barbaric. This is Barbara's This is isis to point.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Out and here's my question to you, and I'm thrilled
to hear that that. Obviously I knew that, you know,
ACT for America was obviously already doing something. But what
I am concerned about, and this is, this is really
what bothers me and keeps me up at night. There
is no age too young, no child, no elderly person.
(22:20):
There's no one that's left unscathed by radical Islam. You know,
I was just saying to my mom earlier today. I
was like, you know, I look at these people and
they'll say to me, oh, you know, this is going
to create Aslamophobia. I'm like, it's not Aslamophobia when every
time I turn around, it's people that are pushing a
narrative of Islam, pushing hate and murder and rape and
(22:43):
brutal massacre. I mean, you can say whatever you want
about the Hasidic community, about you know, the IDF. I
don't know regular Christians in America, they're not out there
leading a cause. You know, as a Christian, we're not
leaving the crusades. You know, people aren't running around with
the torah screaming. You know, I'll have your head. It's
(23:05):
just not happening. And if it is please let us know.
I'd love to know, but it's just not happening. What
is happening is that we have a guy in Minnesota
as a Somali running for mayor, saying that white people
are the biggest problem in America. We have a guy
who is I don't even know what he is. I
don't think he knows what he is. He's from Uganda,
(23:27):
his mom's Indian. You know. I honestly, nothing about Mamdani
makes sense to me. Honestly, he's in Africa right now.
I'm like, okay, so why are you in Africa? Why
are you in Africa right now? The scariest part is
that people are behind him and they're like, oh my gosh,
AOC and mom Donnie would be such a great ticket.
I'm like, oh my god, what are you? Not not
(23:51):
only her, but dumb and dumber these two people. Here's
the other thing to your point. We have never been
more educated. We have people that I call them career students.
They are They've got their MBAs and their mbs and
their PhDs and how many letters do you need? Right?
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (24:11):
They have zero life experience. They've never run a business,
they've never been in trouble. They've never been on the
end of that which they profess. So they're telling you they'
I mean, of all people, AOC is from a rich suburb, mom,
Donnie's mom and dad. You know, she's Bollywood. He's a
professor at Columbia. You know, I don't know what the
Somali kid's about, but I know he's got more money
(24:32):
than God coming at him for his campaign. And we
are not We're not paying attention. I mean, they're building
a sharial wall complex in Texas. In Texas long we
are Cornyn and Cruise and Abbott allowing this. I'm like, guys,
what is happening.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
They've been a sleepland in Texas. They have been asleep. Look,
and you know, my organization started passing laws called American
Laws for American Courts, and we started passing it in
two thousand and nine, and we said, okay, we're not
going to say Sharia courts because we want American businesses
who are doing business in England or who are doing
(25:11):
business with French companies or Australian company or New Zealand company,
if they get into litigation, as long as their laws
are compatible with American courts. We have the problem with that.
So we introduced to law that says no law that
is not compatible with the US Constitution should be allowed
to be used in American court room. And the reason
why we did that is because we documented one hundred
(25:33):
and forty three cases where shariala was used in an
American court room instead of the Constitution of the United States.
By two thousand and nine, we're talking how many years ago.
This is not like yesterday. And the first Sharia court
was introduced in Richardson, Texas, ten years prior to nine eleven,
(25:54):
ten years prior to nine eleven. In nineteen ninety one,
Sariola was introduced in Texas. In Texas led the nation
and introducing sharia law in America. And I remember when
we were trying to introduce American laws for American court
Texas was the toughest state. We could not pass it
in Texas until twenty seventeen. We started in two thousand
(26:14):
and nine the state House. All the state legislators in
Texas would not touch it. The state legislatures in Texas
between two thousand and nine and twenty seventeen would not
touch the law or pass a law that said the
Constitution is the law of the land, and no other
law that's not compatible with the Constitution should be allowed
to be practiced in America. That was Texas the biggest.
(26:37):
We had easier problem passing it in Washington State than
we did in Texas. Why because Texans are asleep. And
when I would travel to Texas and I would speak,
and I would go all over Texas, and I would
speak all over Texas, people did not want to listen.
And I sat down with Tea bone Pickens. I remember
being sitting with t bone Pickens. God's he's no lover
(26:58):
with us, you know. And I'm telling him this is
what's happening at the state legislators. And he would call
the state legislators because I knew he was funding all
of them. And I would tell him all these acts
for America people are crazy. Now, nothing like this we
need to worry about in Texas. I remember sitting with
Ross Perou in two thousand and seven, two thousand and eight,
I remember sitting with what's his name, Norman Brinker. I
(27:22):
can go down the list of all the local in
Texas who are no longer with us. God bless their
souls in heaven. But nobody wanted to pay attention to
what was happening in Texas because they could not believe
it happens here. Well, this is your warning. You know,
they say, Linda twenty years and overnight success text twenty years.
(27:42):
They didn't get to this point because they just started yesterday.
They've been building for over twenty years. Americans have been
asleep or they did not want to listen because they
did not want to be called islamophobes or racist. And
you Knowland that you and I have been working together
for over twenty years now, and when I would speak up,
people would say, oh, brigit, Gabrielle islamophobe. If you google
(28:04):
my name on Google, the first thing you'll see is
the Southern Poverty Law Center, the ADL. Everybody calling me
islamophobe because I've been sounding the alarm and on the
Republican side before until President Trump, until basically four years ago,
the Republicans did not want to touch anybody that was
controversial because nobody wants to be called the bigot or
(28:25):
a racist or anything else. Well, today we are all
in the same boat. If you are prosecutor border you're
a bigot anti brown people. If you are pro police,
you are anti black people. If you are for whatever
you are, we're all in the same boat. We are
white supremacists, biggots, racists, you name it. The label doesn't
mean anything anymore. But finally America woke up, and it's
(28:48):
too late. It's now now. We've got cancer at stage
four spreading throughout America, and now more than ever, we
all need to come together, work together, and work together effectively.
The time for education is over. Now is the time
for action. And that's why I ask people go to
Act for America dot org right now, join us and
(29:08):
support us. We didn't name the organization Think about America
or Hope for America, oh pray for America, but we
named it what Act for America because you can think
and help and pray, but without action, nothing changes.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
I don't mean to laugh, but honestly, it's just wonderful.
It's so great. I love it. It's great, it's true
and it's great and I love it. So let me
let me ask you as we wrap up here, and
I can't thank you enough for being with us today
here at the road recap. And I know the audience
is going to freak when they get to hear you,
but I'm just curious. So, you know, as a survivor,
(29:46):
you know, what would you recommend for us to do
to help the Jewish people, to help the Christians in Syria?
What do you think needs to happen next so that
we can help these poor people.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
We need to take a strong stance and against Julani,
who is now the president of Syria. We need to
make sure we understand that we are dealing with an enemy.
This is not a friend. Zebras do not change their stripes.
America needs to take strong action in bringing bank the
sanction or whatever President Trump and he's not security team,
(30:18):
and believe me, I'm talking in their ears. Whatever needs
to be done to be able to let this guy
understand that America will come so hard down on you
and we'll do whatever we need to do in Syria
to bring back order because we're not going to allow
you to have a massacre under our watch. And this
is the type of pressure, this is the type of
(30:40):
action that our government needs to do. Look, I remember
growing up in Lobanon, and America allowed husband a lot
to continues. You know when HSBA lap blew up the
marine barracks and Lebanon in nineteen eighty three, a barraka
tacktailed between its legs and left, and look at what
happened in Lobanon. Twenty five years later, Hosba Lap became
the strongest terrorist organization in the world, stronger than al Qaida.
(31:02):
And so it's much easier to deal with the threat
right when it's a baby than to deal with it
when it's goliath, like what we are dealing with. We
do not want the resurrection of the Islamic State or
al Qaira again in Syria. Syria is about to fracture,
and our government needs to understand that we need to
keep our finger on Syria, we need to keep our
(31:25):
eyes on Syria, and we need to take whatever action
necessary to stop the killing.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
So I think to that point, there's a few things
that I want to close with. Number One, there is
Christian genocide happening all over the world. Yes, we're seeing
it in Africa, We're seeing it in Syria, we're seeing
it in Iraq. People are asleep at the switch, just
like when we attacked Iran a few weeks ago and
people are like, why are we getting involved. I'm like, well,
(31:52):
this is the head of the snake and the people,
you know, the regular average citizens of these countries, many
of them are looking for freedom. I mean, even when
you look at what's happening in Gaza, you know, and
you see these people coming, they're getting humanitarian aid, not
from Palestine, They're getting it from Israel and from the
United States. And then the Hamas leaders are coming, the
(32:14):
terrorists are coming. They're taking the humanitarian aid, they're killing
those who try and come and get it for free.
Then they're taking it off to some market in the
middle and selling it back to these poor, starving people
who just need a little bit of flour, rice or water.
And nobody's reporting on this stuff. So I feel like
there's three things that need to happen. Number One, Americans
need to get They need to get smart. They need
to get smart, and they need to stop watching the
(32:37):
left wing lunatics who literally just had TDS all day.
I mean, listen, I don't think that Trump is the
best thing ever, you know, on every single issue, but overall,
I think he's doing a pretty good job. It took
a really long time to you know, mess the country
up between Obama and Biden and Clinton. God bless him.
You know he's six months in, he's doing all right.
And then the next thing we need to do is
(32:57):
we need to get involved with organizations like yours. And
I think the last thing that we need to do
is we need to stop just looking at one piece
of information or one source of information. It needs to
come from a breath of information. If you watch CNN,
then please watch news Max or Fox News. If you
read the New York Times, then please read the Epoch Times.
(33:17):
There's got to be a balance because people are so misinformed.
And when I see little girls, little Yazdi girls and
Drew's girls beaten and raped, some as young as seven
and eight, it's really sick. And you think it's only
happening there. We have all this happening. We have female
genital mutilation happening in Minnesota and Michigan. We have Sharia
(33:38):
complexes in Texas. We have two Muslims running in two
major cities that are downright, outright saying we hate white people.
We're done, defund the police, defund ice socialism, government run
this in that week up, it's enough. It's not going
to work. Yeah, it's never gonna work.
Speaker 3 (33:55):
And becoming engaged, and if I said one thing lend
that people think, oh, I voted, I've done my job.
Now I don't have to do anything for another two
years and tell the midterm. They don't realize that the
work starts the day after we win the election, because
that's your window of opportunity to get things done and
to prepare for your next battle, which is the mid
(34:17):
term or the presidency. The Left is in a continuous
phase of growth and activism. They don't take a break.
They win the election, they say, okay, what can we
done now to pass our agenda. They lose an election,
they continue organizing. Okay, we've got to win it back.
Our side votes on election day, and then goes to sleep.
(34:37):
You cannot sleep because there's a lot of things that
happen between election. Between the election, the mid term and
the presidential that's when actually things get done. That's the
day to day policy activism that affects your life on
every level, at the state level, at the local level.
(34:57):
All these decisions are made once every two years. They
are made every day, and that's where your activism and
engagement become very very important. So, yes, you need to
be informal issues. Yes you need to listen to talk radio.
You need to join a group in your local community
to be empowered, to have the fellowship, to feel like
I'm not crazy. I have other people who believe the
(35:19):
same way I do. But you also need to be
engaged in an activist organization that is making an impact. Remember,
the end goal is impacting policy. You know, effective is
my favorite word in the English language. Effective. I wanted
to think about that. All of you listen to be
right now effective At the end of the day, I
(35:42):
want you to ask yourself after you listen to talk radio,
you watched your podcasts, you watch everything, you just finished
eating your dinner, you're sitting in front of the TV.
You need to ask yourself as you're getting frustrated watching
the evening news, what have I done today to be effective? Conviction,
not just be entertained, but effective. I want you to
(36:05):
remember that word tonight, tomorrow night, every other night. I
want you to remember those words.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
If you want to be effective, you should go to
act for America dot or org and sign up so
that you could get involved. I think that's the right
way to start.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Right, that's right exactly. Sign emails an actual alert. They
don't cost you anything. They are free. We monitor bills
coming down for a vote. We notify you when they
are coming down for a vote. Stand with us as
a member. Become a member of Act for America. Sign
up to become a member. If you are a major
donor with a five oh one foundation, support us. We
(36:38):
are a nonprofit organization. You can even get a tax
deductible a business you're looking to sponsor somebody, it's a
tax deductible. Look, businesses are always looking for tax deductible donations.
Better than to make an impact with an organization that's
impacting your business. This is where we need to work
smarter as people coming together on the right side, on
the conservative side, and work together so we can all
(37:01):
move in one direction. That's what the left does. That's
exactly what we need to do.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
Britgie Gabriel, thank you for being with us today. I
