The radical ally of Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed said in an interview Thursday that the United States has committed more terrorism than the radical Islamic group behind 9/11.
Hasan Piker told Axios that, “pound for pound,” the United States had killed more people than al-Qaeda, the organization that plotted and carried out the September 11, 2001, terror attacks. Piker, a popular leftist streamer who once said America “deserved 9/11,” has campaigned alongside El-Sayed.
“Pound for pound as far as the number of deaths, yes,” Piker told Axios. “We have caused tremendous terror all around the world.”
Piker accused the United States of intentionally striking an Iranian school early on in the war. While some reports have pinned bad intelligence for the accidental strike, the Pentagon said it is investigating the incident.
