Hopefully Roger won't be a useful idiot to the Russian barbarians as Trump is.

I agree with him about the  inhumane policies of the Israelis to the Palestinians but that doesn't make him an anti Semite. However, he's so wrong about Russia and its brutal invasion of a sovereign nation. 

Wake up Roger! Which countries in Eastern Europe wants to remain under the suppressive governance of authoritarian Russia?

They've been through that. That's why they voluntarily joined NATO, and for a very good reason. Freedom.

This is nothing to do with Trump .

   I recall Roger Waters saying untrue things about what happens in Israel with the Palestinians .

   A Palestinian got shot in the foot with a rubber bullet which didnt cause any lasting damage  and Waters claimed that Israel deliberately blew the leg of a Palestinian because he was a good football player .

   I stopped listening  to Pink Floyd because of him

If true, kudoos for Waters ...

Water's speech praised by the Russians.

Last autumn he denied the Russians had committed any atrocities in Ukraine.

I looked into this and have concluded that Roger Water's anti Israel demonization does bleed into antisemtitism.

Of course not all criticism of Israel's policies do that but consider the case of Waters displaying a black pig onstage with a Star of David. Leaves little doubt. 

It's also worth noting that a lot of pro Putin, anti Ukraine sentiment is tainted with antisemitism because of world democracy leader Zelinsky being a Jew. 

I think Waters could have been much more effective with legitimate criticism of Israel without the baggage he has introduced, but introduce it he has done.

It's a perfect album embedded in the memory of so many rock lovers in the early 70s.  I remember being worried at the time hearing it being played in Hull's department store 

'What! Have Floyd sold out? Floyd are underground man, not for middle aged shoppers buying shirts'.
