Dark Side of the Loon! Roger Waters says Ukraine is 'not really a country'

2023-02-09

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Pink Floyd singer Roger Waters has said Ukraine is 'run by Nazis'

That should be Noted Joo-hater, Roger Waters, etc.

In an interview, he said Putin may be 'leading Russia to the benefit of its people'

Former bandmate David Gilmour previously called Waters a 'Putin apologist'

And he was right!

The row between former Pink Floyd bandmates is deepening after Roger Waters claimed that Ukraine is 'run by Nazis' and 'not really a country' just days after David Gilmour echoed accusations that he is 'antisemitic'.

In a further broadside, Waters announced he had secretly re-recorded the iconic 1973 album The Dark Side of the Moon without the rest of the band, saying that he can do whatever he wishes with it as 'it's my project and I wrote it.'

The two former bandmates have been arguing for 40 years since Waters left the band, which has sold more than 250 million records, in 1985.

The recent rekindling of the spat came as Gilmour's wife Polly Samson, 60, made a series of allegations about Waters labelling him 'antisemitic to (his) rotten core' as well as a 'Putin apologist' - in a post which was retweeted by her partner.

Waters rebuffed the claims, which he called 'wildly inaccurate' and 'incendiary', adding that he is 'taking advice on his position'.

“It can’t be Joooooooooo-hate when every word about those evil, Christ-hating, money-grubbing baby killers is true,” Waters added. He then emailed that statement to every English-speaking journalist in the world, being careful to include all the Israeli ones and those with Jewish-sounding names, offering himself for interviews to all but the Jewish/Israeli ones.

Waters, a co-founder of Pink Floyd, has drawn some ire for voicing his opinion on Putin's invasion, and was denounced by Ukraine yesterday after he told the United Nations Security Council that Russia's attack was 'not unprovoked'.

Commenting on the Ukraine conflict, Waters told The Telegraph that in his view the idea Russia's invasion was unprovoked is 'f***ing insane' before claiming that 'Nazis are in control' of Ukraine's government.

Nazis like that Ukrainian Jew, President Zelensky. How fortunate for Mr. Waters that he gets to hate the man twice over.

He also labelled Ukraine as a 'deeply divided' country that 'is not really a country at all' and more of a 'patchy vague experiment'.

Is Rogers still on the UKR kill list?

#4 The response from Mrs Gilmore, backed up by David himself, was perfection.

#3 ...FWIW, at the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame, one of the giant puppets from the stage show of The Wall is on display, and on the wall next to it, in foot high letters, is a quote from Mr. Waters explaining why he hates everyone.

There's a lot of reasons I've never gone back there, and that's one of 'em.

#2 Waters is an extreme antisemite nutter. I'd think he'd have no problems with "nazis."

#1 Figured that would be a selling point for ol' Roger. So confused.
