Michigan Democrats’ nomination of Abdul El-Sayed over Rep. Haley Stevens should underscore what most of us have known for quite some time: The enemy is not at the gates; the enemy is already inside them.

El-Sayed (“the lord,” Westernized as El Cid), whom I call El-Mufsid (“the evildoer”) for reasons shown below, campaigned openly with Hasan Piker. “Piker, a leftist provocateur who was one of his biggest boosters on the campaign trail, has a history of making repugnant, anti-American and anti-Israel comments, such as saying the U.S. ‘deserved 9/11,’ and claiming it ‘doesn’t matter’ if rapes occurred during Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023 terror attack against Israel.”
Somebody who says the United States deserved to have almost three thousand of its citizens, including emergency responders, and guests burned alive by al-Qaida is no better than the German-American Bund, anybody who said we “deserved” Pearl Harbor, or Graham “SS Totenkopf” Platner (D-ME) who called Army veteran Teddy Daniels (R-PA), ” a ‘dumb motherf*cker’ who didn’t deserve to live.” The latter is just fine with the Democrat party, though, including Charles Schumer and Elizabeth Warren.
As the New York Post provided only two-word excerpts, I wanted to see Piker’s entire statements. Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY), one of the few remaining Democrats who still stands with the working American, went a lot further. Emphasis is mine:
Mr. Piker has demonized Orthodox Jews as “inbred” and has dehumanized a Jewish man as a “bloodthirsty pig dog”: the association of Jews with pigs and blood-thirst is textbook antisemitism. Mr. Piker has all but exposed himself as an apologist for the sexual violence and savage rapes of October 7th. “It doesn’t matter if rape happened on October 7th. It doesn’t change the dynamic for me,” Mr. Piker declares before finally admitting that “Palestinian resistance” (his euphemism for terrorism) is not perfect.”
Mr. Piker has said he has “no issue” with Hezbollah, the world’s the most heavily armed terrorist organization in the world, and has given a platform to a suspected terrorist from the Houthis. …Piker has even gone as far as to incite violence, telling his followers to “kill” and “murder” people “in the streets” and “let the streets soak in their red-capitalist blood.” The incitement of violence merits scrutiny from federal law enforcement.
Outside the context of October 7th, Mr. Piker has even joked and mused about men date-raping women on a college campus and has posted an image of a handgun on top of a United States Senator in what appears to be open invitation to gun violence against a sitting elected official. Inviting one’s followers to shoot an elected official, whether it be done in earnest or in jest, is the kind of threat that warrants serious attention from federal law enforcement.
…Hasan Piker has come out as an apologist not only for 10/7 but also for 9/11, compounding antisemitism with anti-Americanism. Here is Mr. Piker in his own words: “America deserved 9/11.” The 3,000 Americans incinerated or otherwise murdered in the Twin Towers; the falling men and women plummeting to their deaths from 110-story skyscrapers; according to Mr. Piker, all of them had it coming. They deserved it. One wonders whether Mr. Piker has ever seen an anti-American or antisemitic terrorist attack he didn’t like? He seems to live in a morally inverted universe where the true terrorists on 9/11 and 10/7 were not the perpetrators but the victims.
Speaking of siding with terrorists, Mr. Piker has glorified “brave mujahideen” for wounding US Congressman Dan Crenshaw, who honorably served his nation in the Navy Seals; Mr. Piker’s loyalty lies not with the members of the US Armed Services but with the mujahideen who murder and maim them on the battlefield.
Hasan Piker is therefore fine with rape, 9/11, Hezbollah (which was involved in the murder of U.S. Marines in Beirut in 1983), and violence against U.S. service members.
Abdul El-Sayed is fine with Piker, and the Democrat party is fine with Abdul El-Sayed.
Charles Schumer (D-NY) debased himself by endorsing El-Sayed who, “Asked recently on CNN if he thought there were any reasons other than money that someone might have a different view on Israel, he said, ‘Not if you’re a Democrat and you believe in human rights.'”
If you believe in human rights, you stand with the only country in the Middle East with equal rights for people of all races and religions, women, and LGBT people. If you hate Jews, Christians, Hindus, peaceful Muslims, women, and/or LGBT people, then you stand with “Palestine.”
Maybe Chuck the Schmuck should give a speech at the upcoming 9/11 memorial observance in New York City, talk about how great El-Sayed and Piker are, and see what kind of response he gets from the New York Police and Fire Departments.

Another point is the intersectionality between hatred of Israel and hatred of the United States. The extremists’ real enemy is all of Western Civilization, for which Israel is the origin and most convenient target. The same people who say, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” often let slip the proposition that “Turtle Island” (North America) is occupied territory just like “Palestine,” and Americans are living on stolen land. U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights says openly, “3 Land Day Actions: Defend native land from Turtle Island to Palestine.”
Make no mistake; the people who hate Israel also hate the United States, and indeed every Westernized nation on earth. We are inconvenient living proof that “infidels” give our societies affluence, while they can give their people nothing but superstition, poverty, squalor, mindless violence, and letters to the families of countless “martyrs,” assuming the people can even read.
Close the Gates. Any Questions?
Piker, El-Sayed, the kind of people who vote for El-Sayed, Zohran Mamdani, Ilhan Omar, and Rashida Tlaib (among others) raise serious questions about the kind of people we are allowing into the United States.
A Muslim ban would be discriminatory because religion is an EEOC-protected characteristic. The depraved, violent, Dark Age ideology that Hamas, Al Qaida, Iran, ISIS, and now Turkey call Islam is not. It’s just Nazism hiding behind a Koran and yelling “Allahu akbar!” instead of waving Mein Kampf and yelling “Heil Hitler!”
Before anybody invokes Godwin’s Law, remember that both ideologies (that of Hamas and company, and Nazism) proclaim themselves superior, denounce others as inferior (Dar-al-Harb or House of War and Untermenschen respectively), and claim the right to rule the world.
This ideology, Nazism, and communism have slaughtered more people than any other man-made causes in history.
Erdogan’s now glorified Turkish raiders invaded Constantinople in 1453 and are still living on stolen land. They also massacred Armenians and Pontic Greeks.
The Mahdists of Sudan in the late 19th century slaughtered the inhabitants of Khartoum, including Gen. Charles Gordon, and had to be stopped at Omdurman in 1898.
Wikipedia reports of Tamerlane’s sack of Baghdad in 1401, “Timur ordered that every soldier should return with at least two severed human heads to show him. When they ran out of men to kill, many warriors killed prisoners captured earlier in the campaign, and when they ran out of prisoners to kill, many resorted to beheading their own wives.” Tamerlane (who claimed Muslin identity) would have fit in perfectly with Hamas on Oct. 7, 2023.
Anybody who refuses to acknowledge the difference between Israel’s values, laws, and culture, and a vicious, supremacist ideology that says to return with at least two heads, does not belong in any civilized society — and the ideology in question does not even belong on this planet.
The United States needs people like Marco Rubio and Ron DeSantis to close the gates in these invaders’ faces, and hopefully deport the ones already here. Europe needs to elect people like Marine le Pen, Donald Tusk, Geert Wilders, and Giorgia Meloni to similarly close their countries’ gates and keep them closed against invaders who do not share European values, and have made it clear they have no intention of adopting them.
