Piers Morgan Interview with Roger Waters Who Displayed Bizarre Behaviour

[Social Media]

 

Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters has ignited a firestorm of controversy after accusing Israel of spreading "filthy and disgusting lies" about atrocities committed by Hamas during their October 7 rampage. The 80-year-old musician, known for his outspoken views on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, made these claims during a heated interview with Piers Morgan on "Piers Morgan Uncensored."

 

During the interview, Waters vehemently denied the existence of evidence supporting reports that Hamas terrorists had burned babies and raped women. Despite a United Nations report earlier this year detailing incidents of "sexualized torture," including rapes and gang-rapes by Hamas, Waters insisted there was no proof of such crimes. "I'm not saying a part of the Palestinian resistance movement didn't cross that wire fence. I am not saying that didn't happen at all," Waters stated. However, he questioned Israel's response, asking, "Why did they wait seven hours before they started machine-gunning everyone?"

 

The exchange grew increasingly tense as Waters suggested the need for a "real investigation" into the events of October 7, beyond what he called the "very good Al Jazeera documentary" and the work of the Grayzone, which he credited with debunking Israeli claims. When Morgan confirmed that women were indeed raped during the attacks, Waters retorted angrily, "No, they weren't. There’s no evidence." 

 

In an unusual turn, Waters began whispering to himself on camera in an apparent attempt to calm down, saying, "Roger, Roger, calm down. Don't sink to his level, alright I won't. Stop shouting. Stop shouting back. Let him interrupt you as much as he wants." 

 

Morgan read out a tweet from former Pink Floyd lyricist Polly Samson, who described Waters as "antisemitic to the rotten core" and a "Putin apologist," a sentiment echoed by bandmate David Gilmour. Waters dismissed the remarks with a brief, "No comment. Oh, shut up... They're public and I'm private."

 

Waters' comments have reignited debate over his stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and his frequent criticism of Israel, which some have labeled as antisemitic. His insistence on questioning documented atrocities has drawn sharp criticism and added to the polarizing discourse surrounding the issue. Others have said he exhibited signs of Schizophrenia as he talks to the voices in his head.

 

"Interviewed many thousands of people over the years, but never had one who started talking to himself"

Adore Roger Waters as a musician and songwriter, however can't take either one of these fools seriously otherwise.

Piers Moron (according to Private Eye).

[spidermike007]

He does seem to be rather unhinged. However, questioning the Israeli narrative has become weaponised and is nearly forbidden. The Israeli lobby is the largest in the US, and anyone questioning anything Israel does is automatically branded as being a Jew hater and anti semetic. That is disgusting and anti democratic.

 

How did a nation born of the holocaust cast 750,000 Palestinians out of their homes, upon the founding of the nation and continue 76 years of extreme oppression? 

 

If this topic is of interest, I highly recommend the film Israelism. Great documentary on the subject.

As usual, excellent observation. 

Americans are brainwashed into thinking Israel can do no wrong.

Why did Israel wait 7 hours on Oct 7th to defend itself?

[n00dle]

Talk about making a mountain of a mole hill. Waters, while clearly extreme in his views, and avowedly anti-Isreali was simply being theatrical and      

The whole "don't sink to his level thing" was a theatrical ploy and an indirect dig at Morgan.

He diffused the typical Piers Morgan interview which was getting hostile, and he did it rather calmly

Thanks for posting this, Waters highlights some things I never knew about Oct 7. 

 

The Long Wait for Help as Massacres Unfolded in Israel

It took most of a day for Israeli soldiers to arrive as people tried to hide from Hamas terrorists on Saturday.

Hey Roger, reopen Wikileaks and focus on getting the truth out about the muderous Israeli regime and its land theft.....another 12 sq miles yesterday of West Bank gone and Palestinian peoples' homes with it.

It didn't 'defend itself'. Its IDF murdered dozens of Israelis to make the massacre seem worse.

Like Roger, I'd welcome an investigation. We know many lied, including Biden about seeing babies being beheaded. Why are they lying like this? To justify genocide? Bizarre.

Not only the evidence of the UN report but since then survivors have also been strong enough to make disclosures on the suffering they endured including rape and sexual assault and those Hamas who perpetrated it making confessions.

It didn't.  It was the subsequent Muslim war of genocide against the Israelis, the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, that led to Palestinians being displaced.  So, it's Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Egypt and Saudi Arabia that are responsible for the displacement - not Israel.

The initial displacement of Palestinians in 1948 was a result of Israeli military actions.

Do you know about Operation Plan Dalet? 

Waters has an interesting solution - "the Israelis apologize. admit they made a big mistake , and give equal rights to EVERYONE in the area and live in peace, or go back to Europe or the USA."

There is also talk of a "Hannibal Directive"  where the IDF is ordered to kill Israelis rather than have them taken hostage.

Israel doesnt allow evidence.  Unlike other wars Israel has Gaza isolated and fenced in.  Journalists, apart from IDF, are not allowed and are usually murdered "accidently" gathering such evidence.

But nobody wants them.  They tried to ship thousands out of Nazi held Europe in WW2 but no one would take them.
