On the eve of the nation's first abortion-related murder trial, a journalist receives an ominous and frightening tip from an antiabortion leader: "Something big, something REALLY big, is coming."LIVE FROM THE GATES OF HELL is a bone-chilling first-person account that reads like a gripping murder mystery. Author Jerry Reiter's eye-opening journey takes you into the antiabortion underground--a journey set off by Rescue America leader Don Treshman's foreboding words. Each person he meets--from Klan members to Operation Rescue antiabortion radicals to militiamen--offers a piece to a puzzle that points to a deadly domestic terrorist plot to be carried out in the name of life. The most radical of these men and women are prepared to use any means necessary to impose a theocracy, based on the laws of the Old Testament, on all Americans. Their "ends-justify-the-means" mentality ensures that all bets are off in America's culture war--a struggle between those who seek to preserve our treasured ideals of freedom and individual liberty and those who are committed to making the one-size-fits-all rules of the Bible the law of the land--and who are ready, willing, and able to take up arms to force their ideology on others. Aided by a history of involvement in conservative Christian organizations, Reiter gains the confidence of many of the major players in this radical movement, first on his own, and later as a reluctant informer for the FBI. What he learns about the larger agenda of the radical Christian activists is sometimes more disturbing than the individual acts of violence he describes. This agenda is brought out in shocking details as he uncovers the ties that exist between them and "respectable" conservatives including Pat Robertson and Pat Buchanan--and exposes the dangerous road ahead if this agenda is realized. LIVE FROM THE GATES OF HELL takes you inside the secret meetings and intrigues that set the stage for violence by radical antiabortion groups, militias, and other radicals from the Religious Right. It is a story with serious implications for the entire Christian conservative movement and, by extension, the Republican Party.
