Hasan Piker

Abdul El-Sayed sparked a storm after responding to an attack on a synagogue in Michigan by saying "hurt people hurt people." Now he has admitted he should have limited himself to condemnation, but refused to disavow anti-Israel internet star Hasan Piker.

Hasan Piker claimed that Jewish institutions and American Jews identified with Israel are creating a dangerous situation for the community themselves - and argued that "eventually" they will be harmed: "I don't know how people don't understand how dangerous this situation is."

Hasan Piker, who has millions of followers and is considered a prominent voice on the American left, refuses to apologize for his harsh statements against Israel. At the same time, his influence on the Democratic Party is growing.

He broadcasts from home 7 hours a day, defines Zionism as a racist ideology, and claims that Hamas is better than the Israeli government. Internet star Hasan Piker led a progressive candidate to victory in the Michigan primaries, proving that the battle for the younger generation's public opinion has definitively moved from television to screens.

Hasan Piker grew up on the line between Turkey and New Jersey, turning from a shy boy into one of the most prominent voices of the radical left in the USA. Today he preaches his doctrine to about 3 million followers online, and when it comes to Israel, his messages are particularly sharp.
