Hello, hello, hello. A video, a video about Roger Waters. Why not? Why not? This has been doing the rounds; this broke yesterday.

But I was, I'm in two minds on whether to talk about it, but it annoyed me so much.

Even though, even though I let it float out again, I thought, "No, I'm going to talk about it," because I've been talking about

it, and hey, views; might get some views on the back of it, you know. But anyway, Waters, he of Pink

Floyd, um, you might, did you have any doubts that he was a raging anti-Semite? Did you

have any doubts about that? Well, he doubled down; he tripled down; he confirmed everyone's suspicions that he really isn't a nice chap at all. But then we already knew that, didn't we?

If he's not spitting on fans' faces, or, you know, commenting on the looks of David Gilmour's wife, um, all I can say about

Roger Waters is: imagine waking up next to that. Well, first you think of the bank balance; when you really think of

you take one for the team to be sleeping next to a multi-millionaire, and it's always worrying when a

multi-millionaire, you know, rants and raves and tells everyone how to behave, isn't it? Um, but yeah, he appeared on a

podcast with a guy called Glenn Greenwald. I'm not familiar with his work. I think it's called 'System

Update,' and you think, okay, well, there was talking about, you know, what's going on in Gaza at the moment. For those who

aren't familiar with what happened on October 7th – it's over a month ago now – um, there was an incursion by Hamas

militants. Remember, in the UK, Hamas is a proscribed terrorist organization, up there with the likes of ISIS and...

Al-Qaeda. We must remember the context of all this, and there was an incursion resulting in, you know, 1,400 people being

slaughtered, to put it mildly, in a polite word. And then, um, a number

of people being kidnapped—babies as well as babies. They kidnapped babies and the elderly; like I say, 80

year-olds to babies were kidnapped and taken into Gaza, where they're being held, again, as a bargaining chip, you

know. Um, so Raj is on there, and he's, you know, he's very pro-Palestine, very anti-Israel, and

um, oh, he goes there, doesn't he? He actually, um, you know, talks about the attacks and puts forward, you

know, the old idea that, you know, maybe, just maybe, you know, it was a false flag; these are false

flag attacks, and nobody really knows, nobody really knows what happened, and that, you know, the Israelis were, you

know, talking it up a bit. Um, now, again, there's been some horrible things, horrible things documented, and there's even a website

the Israeli government, you know, shared a website where they show evidence—all their evidence—of the incursion. Um, but yeah, again, this is this

is what really, you know, when when you say that he was also surprised that the Israelis were were caught out by the

attack—well, not really, because they came in on paragliders. It was a new form of attack which no one had ever seen before,

and this came at the end of the Jewish Yom Kippur, um, you know, religious holidays. But and that's why they were holding a

festival, because they attacked a music festival. And here you have, you know, Raj, you know, sparring this stuff,

absolutely, you know, saying that, you know, the massacre—the massacre was blown out of all proportion—and see, and something there's

Something fishy about the attack, and you just go, "Oh, come on, Roger, come on, you know." And I'm just reading some of the

headline quotes, you know. Um, again, he says he writers are making up stories about the attacks, and you

just, you just balk at this. It's just, it's impossible. 1400 innocent people were slaughtered. It

would have been different, I think, if Hamas had attacked military targets. Actually, attack military targets; they weren't

going to do that because they, they would have been outgunned and outnumbered. Um, so they attacked a civilian

civilian target, and and here we are. And it's plainly obvious when you start throwing around these tropes about

false flags. This is real Alex Jones territory, and look where it got him. He'll be saying next, he'll be wrapping

his head in tinfoil and saying, "Oh, did you notice all the Jews had the day off on September 11th? I swear, I

swear." We'll be saying that next, you know, and it's just, I just can't believe I can't

believe someone isn't controlling him, someone isn't pulling him aside and going, "Come on, Roger." Now, again, my stance on the whole

conflict is I try not to pick a side because it's a religious war, and when you factor religion into any of this,

it's going to be ugly. But you know, when Hamas did this, I said, "Yeah, Israel, destroy Hamas." But Hamas used human

shields; they hide in schools and hospitals. So it makes it guerrilla warfare, you

know. This is where we're at. I do not have a side, but I think what Hamas did needs to be addressed, and when you

see these people on the streets of the various Western metropolises, you know, marching, there will be some people there that support a

mass and again they might as well be waving the ISIS flag or cheering for the IRA or any other — insert your

favorite terrorist organization here — and while I can understand why certain leaders are not calling for a

ceasefire, it would be nice if we could stop this because at the end of all this, it's only ever innocent people that die.

You know, they never go after the military; they never go after, you know, Netanyahu or the, you know,

whoever the opposite is in Gaza. They never take out the political people; it's always the innocents that get it, and it

always will be. Um, and that's where we're at. It's never going to end until we get

rid of religion. It's never going to end. And if you really want to blame someone, if you want to blame someone for this,

blame that nice Mr. Hitler, because he's the man that caused all this all those years ago. And it's amazing

that that one man's actions, that madness, has trickled down to this point; it's trickled down to here. And wouldn't it

be nice if we could all just get along? That's what we need to do. And I don't

think people like Roger Waters are helping the situation; he's just stoking anti-Semitism, you know, and it's not good.

It's not right, you know. He values one set of people over another, you know, and that's when you know something's wrong.

Oh, those Jews, those 1400 Jews, false flags, not real — that's the problem. No, you've got to treat both sides equally, and he

isn't doing that, and that's where you're going to end up destroying the other side. That's what

I've always said: if you take one side of the argument in this, you're favoring the destruction of the other side. I'm

only favoring the destruction of Hamas, but that's going to come at a great cost to civilians, and that's the real shame

of it. Um, but yeah, I just I just wanted to talk about my absolute and utter disgust for Roger Waters again. This is

for someone when I was younger, I was like, yeah, I liked, you know, his political message, and you because again I'm left

lefty. I'm an old lefty myself. Um, but what I don't like about the left wing is

this constant anti-Semitic undercurrent that runs through it, and that disturbs me greatly. Um, and yeah, peace, that's what we want; we

want peace for everyone in all the wars, in all the conflicts. Why can't these soldiers just lay down their arms and

refuse to fight? But they can't, because it's all based on ideology, whether it's, you know, Russia versus

Ukraine, or all this, you know, you've got, like I say, the Russians fighting the supposed Nazis, and then you've got

the Islamic groups fighting the Jews. And if you think about what's in his mind, it contradicts; he's contradictory in

his support. But anyway, that was my thought on this. Um, I've already sold my Waters records ages ago, and I would

urge you to uh, do the same and never buy another one of his records again, um, unless you believe in all this stuff,

unless you believe in in uh, the the, like I say, the terrorism that Hamas provides. Um, and that's that's fine;

that's fine; that's an opinion to have, isn't it? So there we have it: Roger Waters at it

again, and it just goes to show that Polly Samson was right when she called him out earlier this year.

Um, and again, he never took her to court; there was no uh, there was no defamation court case, was there? Uh, that's because

was known in his little heart that she's right and he'd have a hard time

proving it in court. So there you go. Thank you for watching. Sorry it's like this, but you know, you talk about the

things you want to talk about, uh, and that was the video. Um, that's it. Thank you for watching. Let's peace, let's have

peace, let's all get along. That's the video. Thank you for watching. [Music] Tata
