Saudi judoka feigns injury, forfeits match to avoid facing Israeli

Aug 7, 2016 9:17 pm By Robert Spencer

“They have been put under humiliation wherever they are overtaken, except for a covenant from Allah and a rope from the Muslims. And they have drawn upon themselves anger from Allah and have been put under destitution. That is because they disbelieved in the verses of Allah and killed the prophets without right. That is because they disobeyed and transgressed.” (Qur’an 3:112)

Joud Fahmy

“Saudi judoka forfeits Rio match, apparently to avoid Israeli,” Times of Israel, August 7, 2016 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Saudi Arabian competitor Joud Fahmy forfeited her first-round judo match against Christianne Legentil from Mauritius at the Rio Olympic Games on Sunday, in what Hebrew media said was a maneuver to avoid facing Israeli judo fighter Gili Cohen in the next round.

The Saudi Olympic team tweeted that Fahmy had sustained injuries to her arm and leg during training and was advised by medical staff not to compete, the Hebrew language Ynet news site reported. According to Channel 2, Fahmy was not hurt, but simply dropped out to avoid competing against the Israeli judoka.

Cohen then lost to Legentil in a brief second-round bout later in the day….

    How pathetic are these Mohammedans?

      “How pathetic are these Mohammedans?”

      Though yours is a rhetorical question, gravenimage, I still want to answer here and it would be this——“Very.”

      There is no moral depth to which Mohammedans will not sink. Such depth is fathomless and would serve as a fitting epitaph about the worst religion ever created by man, assuming of course that an epitaph could be written about a religion and not just a person. I for one certainly hope that this will eventually be the case where Islam is concerned. Very.

        Disgraceful the IOC allows such a mockery to be made of the games. People/groups must be insta-DSQed if using the games as a vector for racism.

      And sadly the more thoroughly a Muslim believer emulates Muhammad’s behavior the more evil they must inevitably become.

      Qur’an 033:021: “There is a good example in God’s apostle for those of you who look to God and the Last Day and remember God always.”

      Here is a recent statement from a group of Bangladeshi apostates living in the UK explaining the reasons why they have abandoned Islam:

      “One who claims to be a messenger of God is expected to live a saintly life. He must not be given to lust, he must not be a sexual pervert, and he must not be a rapist, a highway robber, a war criminal, a mass murderer or an assassin. One who claims to be a messenger of God must have a superior character. He must stand above the vices of the people of his time. Yet Muhammad’s life is that of a gangster godfather. He raided merchant caravans, looted innocent people, massacred entire male populations and enslaved the women and children. He raped the women captured in war after killing their husbands and told his followers that it is okay to have sex with their captives (Qur’an 33:50). He assassinated those who criticized him and executed them when he came to power and became de facto despot of Arabia. Muhammad was bereft of human compassion. He was an obsessed man with his dreams of grandiosity and could not forgive those who stood in his way…

      The statement continues,

      Muhammad was a narcissist, like Hitler, Saddam or Stalin. He was astute and knew how to manipulate people, but his emotional intelligence was less evolved than that of a 6-year-old child. He simply could not feel the pain of others. He brutally massacred thousands of innocent people and pillaged their wealth. His ambitions were big and as a narcissist he honestly believed he is entitled to do as he pleased and commit all sorts of crimes and his evil deeds are justified.”

      In reply to gravenimage, Wellington, and Georg: For several years I have been convinced that the American slang term “chicken shit” applies perfectly to jihadis. Every American kid over the age of 8 knows full well what the term means. I think this designation for violent Muslims needs to be explained to them. So, for the purposes of explaining this to all jihadi scum whose native language is not American english, here is a list of synonyms: cowardly, spineless, craven, contemptible, dishonorable, worthless.

      Check it out–Muslims have done this before. This, from a 2008 article:

      “Athletes are randomly selected for preliminary heats, but rarely will an athlete default because of the “luck of the draw.” This year Iranian swimmer Mohammad Alirezaei was assigned to the fourth heat of the 100 meter breastroke, but was pulled from the match by the chiefs of the Iranian delegation because he was due to race against Israeli Tom Be’eri. The official excuse given was that he suffered an “illness.” Be’eri went on to set a new Israeli record. In the 2004 Olympics in Athens an Iranian gold medal contender was pulled from a race which also involved an Israeli competitor.”

    Thanks – this is actually entertaining because Cohen’s subsequent loss suggests that this subject of the Saudi “king” (chieftain) could have DEFEATED the almighty Jew.

    Somebody in Riyadh will probably be beheaded lose his head over this unfortunate choice.

        Hey, the Jews just took back some land that the Arabs invaded, conquered and stole a while back. So what’s wrong with that? The foolish Arabs always believe that once they steal some lands, it’s theirs for keeps. Like wild animals in the Serengeti they stupidly assume that stealing with violence is OK.

    Ta heck with giving Muslims the benefit of the doubt when it comes to a Muslim/Jewish situation anymore.

    Kick her BIGOTED ARSE off the American Olympic team and give her a lift time ban her from competing in ANY sport as an American representative.

    The whole dang point of the Olympics was to put aside differences and compete in the field of sport.

    In fact.

    Blankity blank blank the Olympics altogether, as they’re nothing but a bunch of political hack pawn pansies.

    Who charge too dang much.

    For their bribes.

      This is not the first political stunt at the games. There have been boycotts in the past. US boycotting Russian Olympics and Russia boycotting the US Olympics.
      Sad thing is that the athletes lose out.

    Anyone that now says that international sport is not politicised is deluding themselves.
    Typical Muslim, instead of finding out who is the better they resort to this type of crap.
    At least the Israeli athletes can march in and out of the Olympic games with their head held high knowing they will and did do their best, not slinking away and using BS excuses for not having the sportsman like guys to stand up and be counted.

      Can you imagine if she got absolutely belted by the Jewish girl ?
      This would be totally insufferable for the Muslims.
      They wouldn’t risk letting it happen.
      Their perceived ‘honour’ is EVERYTHING.
      They capitulated.
      Nothing honourable in that.

    I feel sorry for this girl. I am quite sure that this was not her choice. Saudi team officials were probably mortified at the thought of having to explain to the muttawa (religious police) back in the KSA how they could have allowed one of their precious females to compete against….a Jew(!!)—and an Israeli at that.

    I am pretty sure that Ms. Fahmy is heartbroken. I doubt she traveled all the way to Rio just to eat halal food in the Olympic Village. But at least she can experience the wonders of a country where they allow women to drive!!

    A MAN who famously stood up to the Munich shooter after he killed nine people is facing being charged by a prosecutor for insulting the killer.

    Has Germany gone stark raving mad?

    • gravenimage says

      Aug 11, 2016 at 12:35 pm

      Well, that’s just *f*cking insane*.

      He may actually have saved some lives by distracting the killer.

      And he may be charged with “insults to the detriment of the dead”. For one thing, this is a ludicrous charge–no one should have to respect someone just because they are deceased–I don’t respect Hitler, and *he’s* dead.

      Moreover, it does not even make sense by its own logic–the murderer was alive at the time. The whole point was to distract a live shooter–not insult him after he had killed himself.

      Germany is sinking deeper into suicidal madness if they prosecute this heroic man.

    Can’t face the embarrassment of being beaten by a Jew?
    What cowardly bullying arrogance, befitting a narcissist mind.
    15 million Jews, over a billion Muslims.
    A narcissist will vanish as soon as rather than being beaten. A Muslim narcissist will not engage in a reasonable debate even. The Muslim cannot be seen to admit that “death to the infidel” is the greater part of the Qur’an, until such a time that conquest seems guaranteed.
    The Jews mentioned in the Qur’an are long dead. So it’s not personal, it’s pure religious prejudice.
    The Qur’an is one record of man’s inhumanity to man, and woman.

    Muslims worldwide want a Caliphate with Sharia, Jihad and Taqiyya everywhere. This will never change despite what a few poor souls may tell us. As long as any muslim wants this they must live apart from all who want freedom. freedom, Islam and Muslims are against each other and every muslim knows it and says nothing until the final jihad begins at their pleasure.Muslims must give up Islam to rermain in america or any free nation.CAIR is a good example of lying while smiling at a victim.

    Now now, let’s cut the Saudis some slack – they are being very progressive, allowing women to participate. Heck, they even don’t have to cosplay as tents AND they could *choose* not to fight Jewish opponents – isn’t that very progressive? /sarc. off…

  21. Peggy says

    Aug 8, 2016 at 6:51 pm

    What is really unacceptable here is that they organized Israeli athletes to share a bus with Saudis.
    Why put the Israelis through this? Why make the Israelis endure a ride with vermin?
    It would be much better if they made sure that all athletes from Islamic countries were seated on the same buses and let the civilized world mingle with each other.

    Israelis should have complained but then they have far more class and tolerance.

    • gravenimage says

      Aug 11, 2016 at 12:49 pm

      It was Muslims who refused to share a bus with the civilized Israelis:

    Aug 11, 2016 at 1:57 pm

    I just discovered something very interesting about this Muslimah being at the Olympics–normal Olympics athletic standards were *waived* for her and the other Saudi woman:

    “The Saudi government moved to pre-empt such consequences this month by announcing that it would allow two female Saudi athletes to compete for the first time ever in the Olympics. The two Olympians are Sarah Attar, a dual Saudi-U.S. citizen who will compete in the 800-meter race, and Wodjan Ali Seraj Abdulrahim Shahrkhani, who will compete in judo. The IOC invited the women to the Olympics under a clause that allows athletes to compete “when their participation is deemed important for reasons of equality,” even if they do not meet minimum qualifying standards.”

    http://muftah.org/haram-or-halal-saudi-female-athletes-at-the-olympics/#.V6y30vkrLIU

    This is confirmed by the Washington Post:

    “Saudi woman is first to compete in Olympics”

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/olympics/saudi-woman-is-first-to-compete-in-olympics/2012/08/03/53a79a9a-dd8c-11e1-8e43-4a3c4375504a_story.html

    “Because Saudi women have no national or international ranking in sports, the IOC waived its normal Olympic-qualifying requirements and extended invitations for Saudi women to take part.”

    The general though is that Saudi Arabia only sent a couple of women to Rio so that they wouldn’t be banned from the Olympics altogether. Apparently the women are not being covered at all in the Saudi press.
