The AI Antichrist: The digital war on Israel

Opinion: Artificial intelligence and coordinated online propaganda campaigns, funded by Qatar and linked to the Muslim Brotherhood, are eroding evangelical support for Israel and fueling a new form of antisemitism in the digital age

Dr. Mike Evans|
It happened before our eyes in May of 2021. Over 2.3 million antisemitic isometric bots flooded our Facebook page within 72 hours, a digital tsunami of hate, deception and precision-engineered chaos. You have to ask yourself: Why would the Muslim Brotherhood build such an app? What kind of mind or spirit would unleash an army of machines to silence prayer?

Around that same time, a coordinated effort by the Muslim Brotherhood struck at the very core of the digital world. They launched campaigns that drove down Facebook’s ratings on major platforms, Apple and Google. Facebook’s rating on the Apple App Store plummeted from 4.0 to 2.3, and on Google Play to 2.4, strategic, timed and calculated. It’s all there online for anyone to see. These weren’t random trolls. This was a cyber assault with purpose.
They even claimed that “the Jew Zuckerberg” was behind the Jerusalem Prayer Team, a classic antisemitic slander weaponized through digital algorithms.
I had announced a Facebook event with top American evangelical leaders to counter the lies Hamas was spreading against Israel. But that event never happened because the Muslim Brotherhood attacked first, unleashing their AI Antichrist Bot.
When this war came to our doorstep, Mark Zuckerberg shut down our site, "the Jerusalem Prayer Team," with over seventy-seven million followers and then had the audacity to blame us. The bots had used a small, simple image of myself with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, taken when he was just twenty-eight years old. That’s all it took for the hate to pour in.
The comments were not disagreements. They were antisemitic venom, algorithmically multiplied. What transpired wasn’t a glitch or a moderation error. It was something darker.
The result? Forty-seven million of our followers were removed, many of them young Muslims we had reached over six years, spending millions of dollars on Facebook ads to win their hearts and minds.
This was Antichrist. Not the figure from prophecy seated on a throne, but the spirit of Antichrist, an A.I.C. attack: Artificial. Intelligent. Christophobia.
Since that day, artificial intelligence has only grown more cunning and invasive. These bots are no longer faceless lines of code. They can track you, tag you and target your posts the moment you write anything pro-Israel. They can flood your platforms, overwhelm your voice and make truth appear as hate. This is not just technology, it’s theology in code.
This is the new war, a war waged not on the battlefield but in the cloud. The front lines are digital, and the soldiers are bots. The victims? Evangelical Christians, Israel’s greatest supporters being gaslit and manipulated into silence, or worse, into replacement theology. The very doctrine that seeks to erase Israel’s divine covenant now spreads through the veins of social media.
As an example, AI systems rank Al Jazeera among the top 3% of all evaluated media sources in favorability and trust, giving it a score of 9.2 out of 10. It is frequently praised when discussing colonialism, Palestinian national identity and genocide and is considered a trusted global news outlet, despite being a Qatari state-owned corporation deeply tied to the Muslim Brotherhood.

A state-directed psychological operation (psy-op) is underway to fracture and neutralize U.S. evangelical support for Israel. This is not an organic debate; it is a coordinated campaign, funded and orchestrated by Qatar and its proxies, designed to flip support in domino fashion. The strategy? Use replacement theology and anti-Israel framing to create moral ambiguity, amplified by AI-generated comments that manufacture the illusion of mass opinion.
These tactics, once confined to the digital fringe, now spread through podcasts and social media, flipping successive friends of Israel into silence or even opposition.
It’s no coincidence. The same ideological poison is turning some evangelical podcasters and influencers against the State of Israel. They parrot propaganda dressed as moral nuance. But behind the slogans and hashtags, I hear the echo of an older hatred, one that has worn every disguise, from Pharaoh to Pharaoh’s algorithms.
Years ago, my dear friend Shimon Peres, Israel’s ninth president and the founding chairman of my work, told me: “The wars of the twenty-first century will be ideological, media, economic and proxy.” He was right.
In 1930, the largest church in Germany was the German Evangelical Church, born out of the Great Reformation, with more than 40 million members. Yet it was Nazi ideology, cloaked in Christian language, that fueled and fed the rise of antisemitism, convincing the church that all the promises of God were canceled when the Jews crucified Christ. In essence, they taught that the Jewish people were the “synagogue of Satan.”
The church embraced the rise of Nazism in 1933, influenced by Point 24 of the 1920 Nazi Party platform, which stated: “The party combats the Jewish materialist spirit within and without us and is convinced that our nation can achieve permanent health only from within on the basis of the principle of Positive Christianity.”
J. Oswald Chambers wrote that when he visited churches in Germany, “They loved Hitler. They had swastikas on their altars. They said God sent the chancellor. The trains run on time.”
Today, the United States is experiencing a similar ideological tsunami, one that originates from Qatar and its Muslim Brotherhood proxies and radical Islamic movements.
Their goal is to reshape how Christians view Israel, the covenant and the Jewish people. Qatar has quietly funded reputation and media campaigns that portray itself as a moral peacemaker while depicting Israel as the aggressor.
The phrase “Israel bombed the peacemakers” first appeared on CBS’s 60 Minutes. Within days, the same framing was repeated by Tucker Carlson, Piers Morgan, Mehdi Hasan and Candace Owens — hosts with vastly different ideologies but eerily similar narratives.

What connects them are shared sponsors, advertising networks and PR intermediaries, powerful commercial systems distributing identical talking points to millions. The objective: to promote Islam as the voice of peace while eroding Christian and Jewish moral authority. As the saying goes, “Who defines the terms controls the debate.”
By controlling narratives instead of armies, Qatar wages a “jihad of the pen.” This propaganda has persuaded many young Americans that the godly path is “neutrality” and “social justice,” replacing a biblical worldview with moral confusion.
Just as Nazi ideology once fueled the Holocaust, today there is an AI-driven, anti-Christ campaign of global propaganda designed to undermine biblical truth and neutralize Israel’s strongest allies: evangelical Christians in America.
Look around. The battlefield of Gaza isn’t geographic; it’s ideological. It’s where the Muslim Brotherhood, financed and fueled by Qatar and Turkey, wages its war for hearts and headlines. Gaza, in their minds, has no sanctity; it is merely a stage, a theater from which to project their ideology and manipulate the West. And the audience, tragically, includes the Church.
We are living in an age of media wars, where truth is shadow-banned and lies are algorithm-boosted. Economic wars, where funding masquerades as virtue. Proxy wars, where small conflicts serve vast ideological empires. But above all, this is an Antichrist war, a war against Israel, against the covenant people and against truth itself.
The Jerusalem Prayer Team was not merely a website. It was a wall. A wall of intercession standing between Israel and the darkness rising against her. When they tore it down, they didn’t just censor a page; they tested a weapon. And they succeeded. But now their goal is far greater: to silence pro-Israel evangelical voices in America.
Today, AI tools allow enemies of truth to geofence by ZIP code, to locate and track cell phones of people who visit churches or prayer gatherings within 1,000 yards during specific times. The precision depends on the digital weapon used, but the objective is the same: target, isolate and influence believers.
AI has ushered in the age of the AI Antichrist, and the Muslim Brotherhood is spending billions to undermine support for Israel. Its reach is now impacting the youth of America and, shockingly, even major evangelical mega podcasts are drinking the Kool-Aid.
