密歇根州联邦参议院民主党候选人阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德在其X账号上发布9·11纪念言论后，引发社交媒体强烈反弹。
“他们在那一天袭击的不仅是美国，更是美国的理念，”埃尔赛义德说道。
“那个由共同理想凝聚的国家——一个以自由和对正义的承诺将我们绑定在一起的地方，即便有时我们难以完全实现这一理想，”这位颇具争议的极左翼候选人继续说道。
“今天在9·11这个日子，我们缅怀在那场可怕的恐怖袭击中逝去的生命。”

网友们迅速提醒埃尔赛义德，他与哈桑·皮克是好友。这名进步派流媒体博主曾多次因声称美国“活该遭受9·11袭击”而走红网络。
“闭嘴，你这个骗子，”专注于关键社会和文化议题的保守派X账号“TikTok自由派”在周五的一篇帖子中写道。
经常出镜的政治评论员、前得克萨斯州联邦参议员特德·克鲁兹幕僚史蒂夫·格斯特在自己的帖子中呼应了批评声，并配了一张皮克与埃尔赛义德并肩站立的照片。
“这是你吗？”格斯特写道。
他还在照片配文中加入了皮克的另一句引述。
“‘我憎恨美国……至少我会堂堂正正地说出来，’”照片配文写道。
“与一个说美国活该遭受9·11袭击的人一同竞选……他如此厚颜无耻的虚伪行径，让他愈发像个垃圾，”共和党顾问瑞安·吉尔达斯基在X平台上发帖称。
“你真是个耻辱。你始终不愿否认你的首席发言人所说的‘美国活该遭受9·11袭击’，”全国共和党参议员委员会通讯主任乔安娜·罗德里格斯在X平台上发帖称。
“年复一年，你贬低逝去的美国民众生命，却为恐怖分子找借口、表同情。”
“演得不错嘛，照着剧本念就完事了，伙计，”共和党数字策略师迈克·哈恩在X平台上发帖称。
右翼媒体集团奥弗顿研究所联合创始人乔伊·曼纳里诺对埃尔赛义德在参议院竞选中获得任何支持感到惊讶。

“天呐，阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德怎么还可能有机会赢得这场竞选？这家伙和说美国活该遭受9·11袭击的人一起竞选。要是我见过的话，他就是个激进的伊斯兰极端分子。密歇根州居然想让这种人进入参议院？”曼纳里诺写道。
过去，埃尔赛义德曾发表声明称，他并非完全认同皮克的所有观点。
“但我想明确说明，除了我和我的竞选发言人之外，没有人能代表本竞选团队，”在皮克称以色列是“犹太国的伊斯兰国”后，埃尔赛义德说道。
“尽管政客和专家试图将这场竞选聚焦于一名Twitch流媒体博主，但我们将讨论汽油、食品杂货、优质学校和医疗保健问题。因为这正是密歇根民众一直关心的议题。”
《华盛顿自由灯塔报》调查记者查克·罗斯指出，埃尔赛义德此次的帖子并未提及9·11事件后爆发的战争，而这一话题是埃尔赛义德在谈及此次恐怖袭击时经常提及的内容。
“埃尔赛义德照着念稿，发表了一篇关于9·11的声明。这一次他只谈9·11本身，没有像他在每年9·11周年纪念帖子里那样，提及‘反恐战争’的后续影响，”罗斯写道。
过去，埃尔赛义德曾将反恐战争作为军事侵略的例证，在2023年10月以色列准备打击加沙时就曾援引此事。

“总统访问以色列，而以色列正计划对加沙实施大规模升级与入侵，这已经被视为对针对无辜巴勒斯坦民众的暴力行为的背书。我不禁联想到9·11事件。我们何时才能明白，更多的暴力无法解决暴力问题？”埃尔赛义德写道。

Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Michigan, sparked social media backlash after posting his 9/11 message on his X account.
“They didn’t just attack America that day they attacked the idea of America,” El-Sayed said.
“The notion of a nation brought together by ideals — a place where freedom and commitment to justice bind us, even if, at times, we struggle to fully realize it,” the controversial far-left candidate continued.
“Today on 9/11 we remember the lives that were taken from us in a terrible act of terrorism.”

Online viewers quickly reminded El-Sayed of his friendship with Hasan Piker, the progressive streamer who has gone viral multiple times for previously claiming that the U.S. “deserved 9/11.”
“Shut up, you FRAUD,” the Libs of TikTok, a conservative X account that focuses on key social and cultural issues, said in a post Friday.
Steve Guest, a frequent political commentator and a former staffer for Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, echoed the criticism in a post of his own, posting a picture of Piker and El-Sayed standing together.
“This you?” Guest wrote.
He also included a caption on the photo with another one of Piker’s quotes.
“‘I hate America… at least I say it with my f—ing chest,’” the picture’s caption read.
“Campaigning with a guy who said we deserved 9/11… his brazen dishonesty makes him all the bigger piece of s—,” GOP consultant Ryan Girdusky posted on X.
“You’re a disgrace. You remain unwilling to disavow your chief spokesman who said “America deserved 9/11,” National Republican Senatorial Committee communications director Joanna Rodriguez posted on X.
“You belittled the American lives lost year after year while giving excuses and showing sympathy for terrorists.”
“Good job reading from that script buddy,” GOP digital strategist Mike Hahn wrote on X.
Joey Mannarino, the co-founder of the Overton Institute, a right-wing media group, expressed surprise that El-Sayed had gained any kind of momentum in his campaign for Senate.

“How in God’s name is Abdul El-Sayed even close to winning this race? The man campaigns with people who say America deserved 9/11. He is a radical Islamist extremist if I’ve ever seen one. And this is who Michigan wants to put in the Senate?” Mannarino wrote.
In the past, El-Sayed has made statements noting he doesn’t share all of Piker’s views.
“But I want to be crystal clear, nobody speaks for this campaign besides me and my campaign spokesperson,” El-Sayed said after Piker called Israel a “Jewish ISIS.”
“And while politicians and pundits try to make this race about a Twitch streamer, we’re going to be talking about gas, groceries, good schools and healthcare. Because that’s what Michiganders keep asking about.”
Chuck Ross, an investigative reporter with The Washington Free Beacon, noted that El-Sayed’s post didn’t focus on the wars that followed 9/11, a topic El-Sayed has frequently invoked when speaking about the terror attack.
“El-Sayed, reading off a teleprompter, gives a statement about 9/11. This time he sticks to just 9/11 and not the ‘War on Terror’ aftermath that he usually mentions in his 9/11 anniversary posts,” Ross wrote.
In the past, El-Sayed has held up the war on terror as an example of military aggression, using it as Israel prepared to strike Gaza back in October 2023.

“The President’s visit to Israel as it plans a major escalation & invasion of Gaza is already being held up as an endorsement of the violence being unleashed on innocent Palestinians. I can’t help but hear echoes of 9/11. When do we learn that more violence doesn’t fix violence?” El-Sayed wrote.

El-Sayed’s campaign did not respond to requests for comment on why he had not made more efforts to disavow Piker.
