Israeli MMA fighter Haim Gozali has taken credit for writing Kanye West's name on an IDF missile, while the jiu-jitsu black belt mocked the rapper on social media.
West has come under fire in the past year for his frequent anti-Semitic comments, while saying he would wage a “death conflict over the Jewish people” in October 2022.
And Gozali, who previously served in the Israeli army, posted a photo to X on Sunday showing the words “Kanye West Flying to Gaza Haim Gozali” on an apparent rocket.
Gozali, 50, captioned the post: “@kanyewest you don't love us as Jews. So we don't like you either!!!'
It is not clear whether Gozali actually wrote the message himself.

Gozali previously posted a similar photo with Khabib Nurmagomedov's name (and other Muslim fighters) on an IDF missile
He previously posted a similar photo with the names of Khabib Nurmagomedov, Islam Makhachev, Khamzat Chimaev and Belal Muhammad written on an IDF missile.
These four fighters are all Muslim and have expressed their support for Palestine.
Gozali captioned that post: “This is from me to the [rat emoji],” which got him banned from X for a week.
The most recent post about West was made from a backup account, which Gozali later retweeted from his primary account.
Israel and Hamas have been locked in a bloody war since October 7, when Hamas terrorists launched an unprecedented attack that killed 1,200 people, including about 700 civilians.

He holds a fifth-degree black belt in jiu-jitsu and has competed in the middleweight and light heavyweight divisions throughout his career.
He has an overall record of 15-6.
