Gabriel, Brigitte - They Must Be Stopped Why We Must Defeat Radical Islam and How We Can Do It. Gabriel, a New York Times Bestselling Author, was raised in Lebanon and has studied and researched Islam in great depth. In this book, she describes how it isn't only the fanatic fringe of Islam that we should worry about. While it is only a relatively small percentage of Muslims that are carrying out attacks against Western targets, the motivation to destroy all infidels (anyone not Muslim) is a basic tenet of the religion. She argues convincingly that we should all be concerned about the historical motivation for these attacks and that the relatively recent influx of oil wealth is helping drive them to fulfill their destiny.
