Israeli’s At 2016 Olympic Games Suffer Shocking Hostility And Taunting By Muslim Athletes

Shocking anti-semitism on display at the 2016 Olympic Games makes it very hard for Israeli athletes to successfully compete.

The 2016 Olympic Games have been billed as an opportunity to put politics aside in the spirit of international camaraderie, but that’s not necessarily how it’s working out for Israeli athletes.

Animosity toward the 47-athlete delegation has already triggered a reprimand from the International Olympic Committee and alarm from Jewish groups like the Anti-Defamation League, which issued a statement this week decrying anti-Israel “hostility” in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

“Shocking but not surprisingly, the Lebanese and Saudi delegations obviously have the wrong idea about the Olympic games,” said Roz Rothstein, CEO of the pro-Israel group Stand With Us, in a Wednesday statement.

Lebanon Team Refuses to Share Bus with Israeli Athletes at 2016 Rio Games:

“Instead of using the events to forget animosity and promote peace between people, they have brought their brainwashed minds to Rio,” she said. “How unfortunate that they could not implement the good, peaceful intentions of the Olympics, and instead have used it as a forum to spread hate and continued rejection of peace.”

The confrontations with delegations of nations traditionally hostile to Israel have marred an otherwise successful Olympics for Israel. Two days ago, judo athlete Yarden Gerbi won the bronze, making her the nation’s first medal winner since the 2008 Olympics.

On Sunday, however, the IOC issued a reprimand to the head of the Lebanese Olympic delegation after he blocked Israeli athletes from entering a bus that the teams were supposed to share in order to reach the opening ceremonies.

Instead, Olympic organizers placed the Israeli athletes on a “special vehicle,” said Israeli sailing-team trainer Udi Gal.

“The bus driver opened the door, but this time the head of the Lebanese delegation blocked the aisle and entrance,” said Mr. Gal on Facebook. “The organizers wanted to avoid an international and physical incident and sent us away to a different bus.”

He said he was “enraged and shocked by this event,” adding, “How is it possible that they let something like this happen and on the opening night of the Olympic Games?”

The Lebanese delegation head, Saleem al-Haj Nacoula, who was reportedly hailed in Lebanon as a hero, told Arabic media he was “surprised to see the Israeli delegation approaching and trying to get on.”

“I told the bus driver to close the door but a trainer who was with the Israelis prevented him from doing so,” he said, as reported by the Times of Israel. “I had to physically stand at the door and block him and the rest of the delegation from boarding, knowing that some were trying to force their way through and were looking for trouble.”

Days later, Joud Fahmy of Saudi Arabia forfeited a first-round judo match Sunday in what the Hebrew press described as a tactic to avoid facing Israel’s Gili Cohen in the second round.

The Saudi team disputed the charge, insisting on Twitter that Ms. Fahmy had sustained injuries to her arms and legs during training, although episodes of Arab athletes refusing to compete against Israelis are relatively common in international sports.

In June, for example, Syrian boxer Ala Ghasoun refused to participate in an Olympic qualifying match against an Israeli, saying that to do so “would mean that I, as an athlete, and Syria, as a state, recognize the state of Israel.”

“I quit the competition because my rival was Israeli, and I cannot shake his hand or compete against him while he represents a Zionist regime that kills the Syrian people,” Mr. Ghasoun said in Arab media, according to Jerusalem’s i24 News.

During the 2012 London Olympics, Iranian judo champion Javad Mahjoud withdrew from a match against Israeli Arik Ze’evi. While Mr. Mahjoud cited health concerns, he had previously admitted to throwing matches in order to avoid facing athletes from Israel, according to the ADF.

Israel’s critics say the Jewish nation is not blameless in violating the spirit of the Olympics. Before the Rio games, the Palestinian Olympic committee accused Israel of holding up deliveries of its uniforms and equipment, which Israeli authorities have denied.

Shortly before the Olympics, several media outlets, including the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, reported that Palestinian swimmer Mary al-Atrash was unable to train at a 50-meter Olympic-sized pool as a result of Israeli travel restrictions.

“There is no Olympic-sized swimming pool in the Palestinian territories that Palestinians are allowed to use, so Atrash practises at the YMCA in Beit Sahour, near Bethlehem,” the CBC said in its Aug. 1 article. “The pool is 25 metres long, half the length of the facility she’ll compete in at Rio.”

The reports drew a heated response from the Tablet’s Liel Liebovitz, who dismissed the Palestinians-have-no-pool story as a hardy perennial in Olympic years, even though he said the territories have several 50-meter pools at which she could train.

Mr. Liebovitz also pointed to a statement in July by an Israeli agency saying the swimmer would have been welcome to train in Jerusalem if she applied for a permit, which “like Palestinian athletes before her, she refused to do.”

Fans of the Israeli team were also indignant last week after Facebook failed to post the Israeli flag on its Olympics page. After a complaint by the Olympic Committee of Israel, the flag was added.

“We experienced a short-lived technical issue that prevented the Olympic profile frames for some countries from being displayed correctly in the profile picture selection menu,” said Facebook in a Wednesday statement. “We’ve since fixed this and now all countries should show up in that list.”

While the string of incidents has left supporters of Israel indignant, none comes close to the horror of the 1972 Munich Olympics, in which 11 Israeli athletes were kidnapped and killed by Palestinian terrorists.

“These days, anti-Israel vio­lence at the Olympics has been replaced by pol­i­tics,” said the ADF in a Monday statement, “with rep­re­sen­ta­tives from coun­tries hos­tile to Israel going to great lengths to avoid any inter­ac­tion with Israeli athletes.” source

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: What Every Bible Believer Needs To Know About The ‘Christ Is King’ Movement Being Used To Hijack The Last Days Church

The ‘Christ Is King’ Movement Shows How A Foundational Bible Truth Is Being Turned Into A Last Days Political Weapon For Christian Nationalism, Dominion Theology And Mother Rome

The phrase “Christ is King” is absolutely true when understood in its proper biblical setting. Jesus Christ is Israel’s Messiah, David’s greater Son, the rightful heir to the throne, and the One who will return at the Second Advent to rule this world with a rod of iron. The kingdoms of this world will become His, Jerusalem will be the city of the great King, and the nations will one day bow before Him whether they want to or not. But for those of us who are born again, we have been put into the body of Christ who is our Saviour, Redeemer and Friend. We will stand with Him on ‘that day’ when He becomes KING OF KINGS and inherits the kingdom prepared for Him from the foundation of the world.

“And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.” Colossians 1:18 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the modern “Christ Is King” movement, when connected to Christian Nationalism, is not merely a group of people saying something biblically true. It is often operating from a badly mixed doctrinal framework that blends kingdom-now theology, political dominion, Roman Catholic social order, Protestant reconstructionism, and nationalist identity politics into one confused religious-political package. Rightly divided, the problem is simple. They are trying to take language that belongs to Israel’s prophetic kingdom program and force it into the Church Age, then use it to sanctify earthly political power. Jesus Christ is King. No Bible believer disputes that. He is the promised King of Israel, the Son of David, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, and the One who will return to this earth to sit upon the throne of His father David. But that kingdom is not being established now through America, Rome, Washington, political movements, conservative activism, or religious nationalism. Where the ‘Christ Is King’ movement goes wrong is that it often takes a true prophetic title of Christ and turns it into a present-tense political weapon. It becomes less about the gospel of the grace of God and more about asserting religious identity, reclaiming national power, confronting perceived enemies, and building a “Christian civilization.” That is not Paul’s doctrine for the Body of Christ. Paul does not present Jesus Christ to the Church primarily as our political King. He presents Him as our Saviour, our Head, our Redeemer, our Life, and our Blessed Hope. Today we show you the heresy of the corrupt Christian Nationalism and Dominion Theology movements that wants an earthly kingdom now, without an heavenly King to physically rule over it. They see themselves as the king, and that’s a problem.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Pope Leo XIV Has Meeting With Anthropic CEO To Control AI As Trump Demands Muslim Nations Join Abraham Accords

Pope Leo XIV, Trump And AI Are Now All Converging Around The Abraham Accords As The Middle East Peace Push Sets The Stage For Arrival Of Antichrist

In the same news cycle, we have Pope Leo XIV stepping onto the world stage with an encyclical on artificial intelligence, Anthropic co-founder Christopher Olah seated at the Vatican table, and President Donald Trump calling for Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan, Türkiye, Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain and the UAE to sign onto the Abraham Accords, with even Iran being floated as a possible future participant if a deal is made. AP reports that Trump wants any new Iran agreement tied to additional countries joining the Abraham Accords, and that he named Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Türkiye, Pakistan, Egypt and Jordan among those he wants to sign “immediately.” Christian, it has begun. Pay close attention to what happens from this point forward.

“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” 1 Thessalonians 5:3 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the Vatican is moving to claim moral oversight over the machine age. Big Tech is being brought into a religious ethics framework. Trump is pushing the Abraham Accords toward a sweeping Middle East settlement. Israel is at the center. Iran is at the table. Muslim nations are being summoned into a regional peace-and-prosperity framework. And artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming the invisible nervous system that can administer identity, commerce, surveillance, war, speech, movement and compliance. Pope Leo XIV’s AI encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas, is being presented as a landmark manifesto on “safeguarding humanity” in the AI era. AP reports that the pope called for robust regulation of AI and warned that developers must serve the common good rather than profit, touching areas from work to war. National Catholic Reporter says the Vatican event was historic not only because Leo personally presented the encyclical, but because Anthropic co-founder Christopher Olah was present alongside Catholic theologians and Vatican leaders. Now put that beside Trump’s Abraham Accords push. The original Abraham Accords were already historic because they normalized relations between Israel and several Arab or Muslim-majority states. But this new statement is something much larger. Trump is now talking about Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan, Türkiye, Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain, the UAE, and even the possibility of Iran entering the same orbit if a broader agreement comes together. Trump has framed the Abraham Accords expansion as a condition attached to a possible Iran agreement. That means the Abraham Accords are no longer merely a ‘diplomatic success story’ from 2020. They are now the end times platform, a framework, and a regional covenant mechanism. (Remember that word “covenant”). We told you this was going to happen, and now it’s here. On this special ’emergency edition’ Prophecy News Podcast, we tell you everything you need to know about one of the biggest end times advances in our lifetime.

The Vatican Enters The AI Revolution As Pope Leo XIV And Anthropic Co-Founder Present A ‘Global Ethics Framework’ For The Coming Revived Roman Empire

Pope Leo XIV’s Landmark AI Encyclical With Anthropic Co-Founder Shows Rome Moving To Shape The Digital Future As Daniel’s Revived Roman Empire Rises

Pope Leo XIV has just placed the Vatican squarely in the center of the artificial intelligence revolution, releasing his first encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas, on “safeguarding the human person in the time of Artificial Intelligence.” The Vatican announced the document for May 25, 2026, and tied its signing to the anniversary of Leo XIII’s 1891 social encyclical Rerum Novarum, the Roman Catholic response to the Industrial Revolution. But one thing is crystal clear as these news reports are coming in, the Revived Roman Empire is coming online and it will do it through Artificial Intelligence. Is this how the False Prophet pope will make an image of the Beast, through AI? Buckle up, Christian, the game is afoot!

“And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” Revelation 13:15 (KJB)

Here is where the story leaves ordinary religion and enters the realm of Bible prophecy. Pope Leo is not launching this AI manifesto alone. The Vatican event includes Christopher Olah, a co-founder of Anthropic, one of the major companies shaping the AI systems that are now being woven into government, labor, warfare, surveillance, education, economics and global policy. That is not just a headline, that’s a screaming five-alarm fire. The pope is presenting Rome as the moral voice that must guide the machine age, and Big Tech is sitting at the table. The Associated Press reports that Pope Leo called for robust regulation of AI, warning that its developers must serve the common good rather than profit, and that AI is reshaping everything from work to war.

Fun Fact: the word “anthropic” comes from the Greek word “anthropos”, meaning “human”. Since AI is the opposite of something we would call human, this can only refer to transhumanism which is exactly what’s in play here. Listen to what Pope Leo XIV said this morning as he launched his takeover of AI.

Students of Bible prophecy should not miss what is happening here. Daniel saw the final form of Gentile world power as a fourth kingdom, strong as iron, but in its last stage mixed with clay. That fourth kingdom was Rome, and its final prophetic appearance is not ancient Rome in sandals and Caesars, but a revived Roman system — political, religious, economic and global. Pope Leo XIV is the one that God is going to use to finally put that system into place! We will take a deep-dive, Lord willing, on all this on our Wednesday Podcast.

“And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken. And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.” Daniel 2:42,43 (KJB)

The final Roman system is not merely European politics, it is the beast system. It devours the whole earth. It is global in appetite, technological in reach, religious in justification and political in enforcement. Artificial intelligence is not the Beast, but one of the tools by which the Beast system gains unprecedented reach into every corner of human life. Rome is positioning itself as the conscience of the AI age, and Big Tech and the Tech Titans are lending credibility to that platform. The nations are looking for a framework. The masses are being trained to accept digital mediation in every area of life. And Bible prophecy told us thousands of years ago that a revived Roman kingdom would arise at the end, strong as iron, yet mixed with miry clay.

This is where we are on Day 2,261 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve…TO THE FIGHT!!
