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]

Activities

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]

By 2010 this mission was simplified 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.

By fulfilling its mission, 'American Congress for Truth will arm concerned citizens, activists, opinion leaders, members of the media, and elected officials with the truth to effectively combat the spread of radical Islam and the threats it poses to peace, safety, security and liberty.'[3]

ACT's board of advisors consist (as of July 24, 2007) of the following members:[4]
