That's the power of anti-Semitism, which is often disguised as anti-Zionism, but it's the same thing.
The Jerusalem Post reported, “Muki showed impressive fighting abilities in Wednesday’s tournament, having beaten most of his opponents by ippon (the highest score a fighter can achieve in Japanese martial arts), including in a fight that lasted merely 25 seconds. In the quarterfinals, Muki faced Egyptian Mohamed Abdelaal, who refused to shake Muki’s hand after having lost to him.”
It's probably a good thing that Muki didn't shake his hand--it illustrates just how hateful many Muslims are toward Jewish people, especially when they get beaten by them in competition.
The Times of Israel noted, “Other Arab opponents have acted similarly after losing to Israelis, including Egyptian and United Arab Emirates judokas.”
It's an Arabic way of saying "boo-hoo, I lost to a Jew."
But after Muki defeated Belgium's Matthias Casse in the final, the two men hugged because Casse isn't an anti-Semite and is a gracious competitor.
An emotional Muki sang the Israeli anthem after he won:
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Muki, “You’ve proven what I always say, that thanks to talented wonderful people such as yourself we turned Israel into a judo powerhouse.” Muki responded that it is a “privilege to represent Israel.”
The Jerusalem Post noted, “The biggest question coming into this tournament was whether Muki, ranked second in the world, would face Iranian judoka Saeid Mollaei in the finals, and whether the Iranian judoka would forfeit in order not to play an Israeli, as has happened in the past. But the Iranian lost the semifinals and did not get to face Muki.”
At the 2018 Rio Olympics, Or Sasson beat Egypt's judo fighter Islam El Shehaby, [his fans now call him "Shebaby"] who refused to shake Sasson's hand which prompted fans to boo the loser who later went home and cried like a Betsy Wetsy doll.
Tal Flicker was the Israeli judo champion in October 2017 when he took gold in Abu Dhabi. When he received his medal, they refused to play the Israeli national anthem or display the Israeli flag. Instead, the cowards played the International Judo Federation theme [which sounds a bit like a bossa nova] but Flicker protested by singing the Israeli national anthem by himself.
Losers in judo and losers in life, as distinguished from the champions.
