Radical El-Sayed ally doubles down on anti-American rhetoric with stunning terrorist comparison

A popular far-left streamer tied the Democratic nominee in the high-stakes U.S.

Senate race in Michigan doubled down on anti-American comments he's made in the past during an on-camera interview released Thursday.

Hasan Piker was featured in an episode of " The Axios Show " taped in Los Angeles, where he resides, where interviewer Alex Thompson recalled the internet personality's past claim that "America is the top dog in terrorism." "Do you think America, then, is worse than al-Qaeda ?" Thomspon asked.

HASAN PIKER INSISTS ABDUL EL-SAYED ASKED HIM TO 'STUMP' FOR MICHIGAN CAMPAIGN AMID BACKLASH "Pound for pound as far as the number of deaths, yes," Piker replied.

"We have caused tremendous terror all around the world." "I think that that is not only terror that we are waging on regular civilians, and nations in the periphery, but it's also having consequences on ourselves," the Twitch streamer continued.

"It's having dramatic consequences on the home front." "One clear example of this is what we did in Minab [Iran],' Piker said, referring to American attacks earlier this year that struck a school.

A United Nations mission said it found "reasonable grounds" to believe that the U.S. committed a war crime.

"There's no distinction between blowing up a school, tripple-tapping it with Tomahawk missiles.

If you're killing 140 school girls, that is an act of terror." Piker conceded that not all Americans are terrorists, but still called for an "environment of accountability." EL-SAYED PALS AROUND WITH FAR-LEFT STREAMER HASAN PIKER THE DAY BEFORE CRUCIAL MICHIGAN SENATE ELECTION Piker is closely tied to Abdul El-Sayed , the controversial far-left U.S.

Senate candidate in Michigan.

Piker joined El-Sayed on the campaign trail during primary season.

The two were pictured partying together on the night El-Sayed ended up winning his primary election.

Since winning the Democratic primary, El-Sayed hasn't been able to shake Piker's shadow, and has refused to condemn him for past controversial comments.

Instead the candidate has painting him as a "streamer from California" who has no bearing on the race in Michigan in attempts to distance himself from Piker's more radical views and comments.
