The Kobe System and the connection to the Illuminati and the occult

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

I found all the proof necessary, and then some, to make the case that Kobe Bryant was a hardcore Illuminati member, as well as having strong ties to satanism, and his Kobe System will prove that to you.

Kobe Bryant was a man driven to success, you might also say he was a man possessed as well. I am not a huge basketball fan, so I only knew of him when seeing some game he played in when he was still active, or in a passing news byte of his time after. I honestly had no idea about the mega-empire known as the Kobe System, since his death I’ve discovered it, but even to my “seen it all” eyes it was jarring and shocking. It was the belly of the beast, and Kobe would be the first person to agree with me.

“Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.” Genesis 3:1,4,5 (KJB)

The first few videos I watched of the Kobe System from Nike had by jaw literally dropping the entire time. Everywhere I looked I saw that his brand was built the image of the deadly black snake known as the Black Mamba. An association and comparison that Kobe Bryant welcome and promoted. I saw his logo, which is a stylized icon of a snake head, and also in line with the image of Baphomet, Satan, which we see in connection with the Knights Templar, the Illuminati, Freemasonry and satanism.

Believe me when I tell you I was dumbfounded at seeing all this, I thought there is no way this can be real, it has to be some sick joke. That’s why I didn’t write about it immediately, I had to be a good Berean and search the truth out for myself. I found all the proof necessary, and then some, to make the case that Kobe Bryant was a hardcore Illuminati member, as well as having strong ties to satanism, and certainly lots of associations with Freemasons like Shaq and Tony Robbins.

Look at the main image at the top of this article, you will immediately notice a snake’s threatening head. Upon closer inspection, it is a pair of Nike Kobe System 8 sneakers put together with other graphics to complete the image of a coiled snake. Look closed and you will see the Illuminati triangle as the main logo icon for the Kobe System, and a winged opening at top that we will explain in the videos below. Everywhere you look in the Kobe System branding you will see images connected to the Illuminati, satanism and Freemasonry.

We ask you to watch the handful of videos we have included below. You may have to watch them two or three times to understand what you are truly seeing, and you may or may not agree with all of the conclusions presented there, but you will agree with most of them, absolutely. The marketing and branding created by Kobe Bryant and his team for the Nike Kobe System is a veritable treasure trove, the mother lode if you will, of all things unholy and occultic.

NOTE: I have placed these videos in this order for a specific reason, and ask that you watch them in their entirety without skipping ahead. If you do that, you will have a complete and full understanding of how Kobe Bryant and his Kobe System is connected to the Illuminati and the occult.

#1: Professional Sports And Their Connection To The Occult

This is a good video to start on to gain an understanding of what the massive sports complex that controls so much of our time and behavior is really all about. You will never look at professional sports in the same way again. After watching this you will have a much better understanding of the Kobe System. GRAPHIC WARNING: parts of this video will show you sport stars trapped in MK Ultra disassociation freezes, and it is quite unsettling. Do not allow children to watch this.

#2: The Kobe System And Its Connection To The Illuminati

In these next two videos, you will see the meaning and symbolism behind the logo and branding used in the Kobe System. 100% Illuminati all the way, with liberal sprinklings of satanism and the occult thrown in for good measure. You will see the meaning behind the man/woman chalice triangle in the Kobe System logo, and its connection to the occult. You will also see snakes, lots and lots of black snakes.

#3: Kobe Bryant Illuminati Commercial, Ties To Satan Exposed

Now, after having watched the previous videos and in order, you are now ready to see to all come together. The Kobe Bryant 666 Workout, yes, that’s what he really called it, and his complete connection with 666.

#4: The Saddest Video Of Them All

Much was made of the fact that Kobe Bryant was a ‘strong catholic‘, and as far as I could see he was. But being a good Catholic is not the same as being a born again Christian who knows where they are going when they die, and in fact, welcome it. Kobe had no idea where he was going when he died, as you will hear him say in his own words. Sadly, there is only one type of person who doesn’t know where they’re going when they die, lost people. Don’t die lost like Kobe did, click here to see how you can know you’re headed for Heaven when you die.

As Iran Tensions Explode, USS Tripoli Strike Group With A Full Marine Expeditionary Unit Arriving To Reinforce 50,000 U.S. Troops Already Deployed In Region

Strait Of Hormuz Becomes Flashpoint As USS Tripoli And Combat Marines Enter Region Backed By Tens Of Thousands Of U.S. Forces

The USS Tripoli is not a symbol. It is not a diplomatic gesture. It is a fully operational, forward-deployed invasion platform. A Marine Expeditionary Unit is specifically designed for one thing: to hit fast, hit hard, and establish a foothold before the enemy can react. On Friday it will arrive to reopen the Strait of Hormuz replete with 2,200 US Marines who will be joining the 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit of 2,500 Marines that’s due to arrive mid-April. And you think this war is winding down? Guess again.

“Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.” Joshua 11:18 (KJB)

The Strait of Hormuz is the economic jugular vein of the planet, where a massive portion of the world’s oil supply flows every single day. Whoever controls that chokepoint holds leverage over global markets, economies, and stability itself. Right now, Iran has their fingers on the controls, something that President Donald Trump would love dearly to see come to a sooner rather than later end. The USS Tripoli is not just a ship, it is a floating strike platform, a fully armed and operational war machine positioned at sea. On board are F-35B stealth fighter jets, MV-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft, attack and transport helicopters, and ground combat Marines trained and ready for amphibious assault. This is not a slow, piecemeal military buildup taking shape over time; this is a complete, self-contained invasion force, already assembled and capable of launching operations the very moment the order is given. And it doesn’t stand alone. Moving with it is the USS New Orleans, an amphibious transport dock, carrying roughly 2,200 Marines from the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit. Together, this is Day One war capability — not theoretical, not preparatory, but active and deployed. Everything needed for immediate combat operations is already in place, already in position, and ready to be unleashed.

Please pray for our amazing US Marines, Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen as they get ready to, hopefully, take control of the Strait of Hormuz and bring this war to an end. Semper Fi.

Did Trump’s 2025 Saudi Visit Lay The Groundwork For Iran War? Mohammed Bin Salman Sees Iran Conflict As An ‘Historic Opportunity’ To Remake Middle East

Prince Mohammed bin Salman sees a ‘historic opportunity’ to remake the region through Donald Trump’s war with Iran, according to people briefed by U.S. officials on the conversations.

The latest reporting paints a striking picture: Mohammed bin Salman privately urging Donald Trump to continue a war with Iran, describing the conflict not as a crisis to contain, but as a “historic opportunity” to remake the Middle East. That phrase alone should give pause. History is filled with leaders who believed they stood at the threshold of reshaping the region, but few did so without unleashing major consequences far beyond their control. Do you remember Trump’s May of 2025 magnum opus meeting they called ‘MAGA In The Desert’? Let me remind you.

“Beside that which chapmen and merchants brought. And all the kings of Arabia and governors of the country brought gold and silver to Solomon.” 2 Chronicles 9:14 (KJB)

What we are witnessing right now in the Middle East did not begin with missiles flying over Tehran or oil tankers sitting idle in the Strait of Hormuz. This moment was set in motion long before the first shot was fired, when Donald Trump stepped onto Saudi soil and locked in one of the largest economic and military partnerships in modern history. That visit was billed as dealmaking, and yes, the numbers were staggering, with agreements ranging from $600 billion to nearly $1 trillion in investments, defense systems, and strategic cooperation, but the real story was not the money. The real story was the alignment. That Saudi trip cemented a powerful alliance between Trump and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, tying the United States and Saudi Arabia together through weapons deals, economic dependency, and shared regional objectives. Massive defense agreements, including advanced aircraft and hundreds of tanks, were not merely symbolic gestures, they were the building blocks of a military capability and deterrence alliance between the United States and Saudi Arabia.

CANDID CAMERA: That look on Pete Hegseth’ s face when President Trump begins the processing of shifting the blame away from himself for a very expensive and unpopular war in Iran to the Secretary of War is an instant classic.

Fast forward to today, and the region is engulfed in war. The United States and its allies are engaged in a full-scale conflict with Iran, striking thousands of targets while Tehran retaliates across the region, sending shockwaves through global energy markets and threatening to choke off the world’s oil supply. The war has already escalated into a multi-front confrontation involving Israel, proxy militias, and global powers scrambling to prevent total collapse of stability in the Middle East. This is no limited engagement—this is the kind of conflict that reshapes maps. And now comes the revelation that pulls the curtain back just a little further. According to reports based on briefings from U.S. officials, Mohammed bin Salman is urging Trump to stay the course, viewing the war with Iran as a “historic opportunity” to reshape the region in Saudi Arabia’s favor. That statement, if true, should stop you cold. Because it connects the dots between what was built in Saudi Arabia last year and what is unfolding right now on the battlefield. Are we fighting this war for Israel, for Mohammed bin Salman, for who then?

This is where the question becomes unavoidable. Did Trump’s Saudi visit lay the groundwork for what we are now seeing? No one is going to come out and say that openly, and Saudi officials publicly deny pushing for escalation. But the sequence of events speaks loudly. First came the alliance. Then came the investment. Then came the weapons. And now comes the war. So no, this is not just about contracts signed in Riyadh, and it is not just about bombs falling on Iran. This is about timing. It is about alliances forged in peace being leveraged in war. And it is about a Middle East that is rapidly being reshaped before our eyes, exactly as Scripture said it would be.

Saudi Prince Is Said to Push Trump to Continue Iran War in Recent Calls

FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES: Saudi Arabia’s de facto leader, Prince Mohammed bin Salman, has been pushing President Trump to continue the war against Iran, arguing that the U.S.-Israeli military campaign presents a “historic opportunity” to remake the Middle East, according to people briefed by American officials on the conversations.

In a series of conversations over the last week, Prince Mohammed has conveyed to Mr. Trump that he must press toward the destruction of Iran’s hard-line government, the people familiar with the conversations said. Prince Mohammed, the people familiar with the discussions said, has argued that Iran poses a long-term threat to the Gulf that can only be eliminated by getting rid of the government.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel also views Iran as a long-term threat, but analysts say Israeli officials would probably view a failed Iranian state that is too caught up in internal turmoil to menace Israel as a win, while Saudi Arabia views a failed state in Iran as a grave and direct security threat. But senior officials in both the Saudi and American governments worry that if the conflict drags on, Iran could deliver ever more punishing attacks on Saudi oil installations and the United States could be stuck in an endless war.

Prince Mohammed, an authoritarian royal who has led a sustained crackdown on dissent, is respected by Mr. Trump and has previously influenced the president’s decision-making. Prince Mohammed has argued that the United States should consider putting troops in Iran to seize energy infrastructure and force the government out of power, according to the people briefed by U.S. officials.

Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, said the administration “does not comment on the president’s private conversations.” READ MORE

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: President Trump May Be Looking For The Exit Ramp As He Cancels His Own 48-Hour Deadline For Iran To Reopen Strait Of Hormuz

TACO Trump Always Chickens Out? Iran Ultimatum Deadline Comes And Goes With No Action As Strait Of Hormuz Crisis Continues In Iran

For days now, the rhetoric coming out of Washington had all the markings of escalation. President Donald Trump issued a hard 48-hour ultimatum to Iran: reopen the Strait of Hormuz or face devastating U.S. strikes on critical infrastructure. The language was not vague. It was direct, forceful, and absolute. And now? That deadline has come and gone and has quietly turned into a 5-day deadline with the White House desperately trying to sell it as a win which it absolutely is not. It is hesitation, uncertainty, and sadly, weakness. TACO Trump is back with a vengeance.

“A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” James 1:8 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, instead of action, Trump extended the timeline, paused military strikes, and began talking about “productive conversations.” That’s not follow-through—that’s a pivot. And not a subtle one. Let’s say it plainly: this is exactly why critics have begun branding him “TACO Trump” — Trump Always Chickens Out. On multiple podcasts, I have already stated clearly that this war was not going in Trump’s favor. The early signs were there for anyone willing to look—Iran was not backing down, regional tensions were spreading, global economic pressure was mounting, and the Strait of Hormuz, one of the most critical chokepoints on earth, remained under constant threat. I said then that Trump looked like he was in over his head, and what we’re seeing now only reinforces that assessment. This is not a controlled situation. This is not a clean show of strength. This is a leader who issued a red line and is now stepping away from it under pressure. You can be absolutely certain of this: Tehran is not interpreting this as diplomacy. They are interpreting it as hesitation. In the Middle East, hesitation is not neutral—it is weakness. When the United States threatens “obliteration” and then delays action, adversaries recalibrate. They test further. They push harder. And that increases the chances of a much larger conflict down the road. The news is changing by the minute, and we bring it all to you today!
