ACT! for America
The American Congress for Truth (ACT) is a neo-conservative Zionist organisation 'aiming to awaken and empower freedom-loving people everywhere to effectively combat'...'the multiple threats posed to America's national security and democratic values by radical Islam'. It was established in 2002 by Brigitte Gabriel.[1]
On its website in 2007 the ACT described its 'seven-fold mission' as aiming to:'
• Keep citizens informed through action alerts, issues and legislation
• Educate millions of citizens about our enemy, and what they can and must do to protect themselves and their country
• Arm activists with information to get involved and take action
• Motivate citizens to become active in decisions affecting national security and the American way of life
• Network organizations with like-minded goals to bring change
• Empower citizens to have a voice in their government
• Fearlessly speak out in defense of America, Israel and Western civilization.[2]
In 2010 its mission statement has been reduced to two overriding aims:
- providing quality original educational and informational materials
- providing ease of access to countless such materials created by the many credible and reputable organizations and individuals worldwide who share our concern about this threat.
