Thank you Mr. Waters for all the Music, Pink Floyd and Solo Music and for caring for All Human Souls on Earth. I named my son after you. Andre Desrochers in Ottawa Canada.
Thank you for being the voice of the oppressed all over the world, especially our brothers and sisters in occupied Palestine.
You give us hope in this broken world, to see such a great figure standing by us (the oppressed) makes a great difference. while other figures ( Toothless hags, super models, actors, fags, bleeding hearts
You and your ilk say you want peace, but always at the detriment of the victim. Hamas slaughtered and imprisoned innocent Israelis on October 7. Palestinians appeared to be proud of this. They danced and celebrated as innocent lives were dragged through the streets. Yes, that was an act of war. If you really want peace, you should demand that Hamas turn themselves in, release all hostages, and stop using civilians as human shields.
Will researching what happened 75 years ago show me that parachuting into a concert, targeting civilians, beheading babies and parading young girls though the streets to be spit on by crowds is fine?
Oh? So you deny that Hamas parachuted into a concert, targeted civilians, beheaded babies and paraded young girls though the streets to be spit on by crowds?
You need to read the liberal Israeli press. You'll find out about The Hannibal Directive. You could start with Haaretz. Not an inkling of this has made it to the MSM in the UK, US, Germany, for example.
Putting people in a cage, starving them, shooting their children and carrying on like this for decades and then questioning the outcome is the definition of depravity. History is replete with examples of oppressed people striking back, and cheering when they stick it to the man.
History is also replete with oppressed people and their erstwhile oppressors carrying on a normal existence once the oppression has ended.
How else could someone like Sunak become the PM of the erstwhile colonizer of his people.
Carry on, Roger. You’re doing what the Quran says, “Therefor remind, for of benefit is the reminder.” You put words to my rage.
Step back and wipe your mind clean. Go back to the very beginning (at least to 1896, and even before) and work forward. If you do not know already, learn the difference between Judaism and Zionism.
Saw your show in Dallas in 2022. Thank you for that experience.
You talked about the letters you write to people, and I’d be interested in writing you a word or two.
I heard you mention you enjoyed all the pretty horses, his philosophy was crucial for the hope of our future, as I feel yours is. I believe when you say Biden needs to join the conversation that you are not only right but this is the best way forward. You deserve to be part of that conversation, perhaps we should get 50-100 wise people, those like yourself, Chomsky, Cornel West, Zizek, other philosophers, professors, psychiatrists, artists, and maybe a Justice minded general or two if such can be found, 50-100 political leaders, and maybe 50-100 of the richest people in a room and lock the door until they all can come to certain agreements based on universal human rights and the hope of a livable future. If we can’t get the billionaires and politicians to attend then live stream the conversation amongst the wisest of us.
Anyway, if I had the chance to sit next to you in a bar this is what I’d say. You have a platform, it is time for the wise among us to organize and strategize to influence those with power. Your show proves you could help lead such an endeavor.
Thank you for speaking so clearly on behalf of those suffering in Palestine. Change must happen now.
All these Christians and do-gooders have lost their way. But not you. Honored to be of the same mind with you and for you. Looking forward to more Roger
That one looks Jewish and that one's a coon. Who let all this riff raff into the room. Now I see what you meant. Genocide against the Jews is fine, not even worth mentioning. But Jews are supposed to lie down and die, not resist, because if they do, they will be considered war criminals. Thanks for clearing me up on that, Roger. I grew up with your music since the early 70's and now I see how wrong I was with my perception of you.
It was art, and he was playing the part of a deranged, unhinged dictator swallowed up in his own paranoia and delusions. You would do well to see Pink Floyd The Wall film (if you have not already); it may clear it up for you.
Then you did not make your point very well. You referenced lyrics from an album, not what happened on Oct 7.
Roger Waters has - several times since Oct 7 - called for ALL killing to stop, no matter who they are or where they come from. Something hard to argue against.
PS: Gaza ia the world's largest open-air prison. Even those with international passports need Israel's permission to leave. As Roger would say: read, read, read.
Actually he didn’t say anything remotely like that. And if you find his point of view on the slaughter of innocent Palestinians offensive, you weren’t much of Floyd fan to begin with
Thank you Sir for your continuous support and vocal caring of humanity.
Thank you Mr. Waters for all the Music, Pink Floyd and Solo Music and for caring for All Human Souls on Earth. I named my son after you. Andre Desrochers in Ottawa Canada.
Brilliant piece! Thank you for being a truth-telling warrior!
Roger, you are the primary reason I have educated myself on the injustices regarding Palestine. Thank you.
Nice article. Keep on writing more you're an expert!
Dear Roger,
Thank you for being the voice of the oppressed all over the world, especially our brothers and sisters in occupied Palestine.
You give us hope in this broken world, to see such a great figure standing by us (the oppressed) makes a great difference. while other figures ( Toothless hags, super models, actors, fags, bleeding hearts
Football stars, men in bars...) are just ants.
Love & Respect From Lebanon.
Loved you Roger since I was 12, 50 years ago. You're the real Mr Floyd!
You and your ilk say you want peace, but always at the detriment of the victim. Hamas slaughtered and imprisoned innocent Israelis on October 7. Palestinians appeared to be proud of this. They danced and celebrated as innocent lives were dragged through the streets. Yes, that was an act of war. If you really want peace, you should demand that Hamas turn themselves in, release all hostages, and stop using civilians as human shields.
You really should have spent some time researching , at the very least, the past seventy five years history of Palestine.
Had you have done so, you wouldn't have just wasted both of our time.
I look forward to hearing back from you, after you have done so ✊🏽🇵🇸
Will researching what happened 75 years ago show me that parachuting into a concert, targeting civilians, beheading babies and parading young girls though the streets to be spit on by crowds is fine?
At this moment in your time, you are up to your neck in propaganda.
To clear your vision, you need to first research.
After which, you won't need to ask anyone else how to see clearly.
Oh? So you deny that Hamas parachuted into a concert, targeted civilians, beheaded babies and paraded young girls though the streets to be spit on by crowds?
You clearly haven't done your research .
Everything you keep listing has been categorically debunked, long ago!.
I wish you well on your journey to truth ✊🏽🇵🇸
You need to read the liberal Israeli press. You'll find out about The Hannibal Directive. You could start with Haaretz. Not an inkling of this has made it to the MSM in the UK, US, Germany, for example.

Thank you, Roger Waters.
I've been waiting on you realising where you're going wrong
It's not "what happened 75 years ago"
It's what's been happening for 75 years
NOW would be a great time to catch up with the true suffering of Palestinians.
Then have a look at the countries around Palestine and see if anything springs to mind
Step back and wipe your mind clean. Go back to the very beginning (at least to 1896, and even before) and work forward. If you do not know already, learn the difference between Judaism and Zionism.
Things will become a lot clearer then.
Peace.
Great to see you here, Roger. It's time for us to take back our power... Power to the PEOPLE!

you missed my whole point! Jews were slaughtered on Oct 7, and Roger Waters is condemning them for defending themselves against Hamas.
Then you did not make your point very well. You referenced lyrics from an album, not what happened on Oct 7.

A POEM FOR GAZA’S BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN
© George Philby May 17, 2024
Email: marciakline@protonmail.com
“Israel” is still bombing. It’s gruesome to see.
And Gaza’s becoming a cemetery.
The Zionist Biden cries, “Go, Israel, go!”
Macron, Sunak, Scholz, are all backing the show.
In Gaza, there’s mothers and fathers forlorn,
Dead sisters, dead brothers, dead babies unborn.
In Washington’s Blue and White House, they don’t mourn.
They’re urging “Israel,” “Keep on mowing the lawn!”
Our inhumane Zionist “leaders” excuse
The barbarous crimes of the Zionist Jews.
The drones, F-16s from the U.S. of A.
Leave Gaza with scenes of despair and decay.
®
In Gaza, the “cockroaches” must understand
It’s “Israel,” not Palestine, running the land.
The Zionists tell children, “Now you’ll all obey,
Or your blood will form a big pool, oy vey!
So, children deprived of their schooling all say,
“It’s MIGHT—and not RIGHT—that is RULING today.
Sadly, it appears that Mr. Waters suffers from the same affliction as Syd Barrett. Worse still, it is widely reported he is an egomaniacal a-hole.
