Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters is quite simply a legend of British rock music history. His band created a foundational sound that has inspired generations, and have sold more than 250 million records worldwide. Not content however to be just an artist, Roger is also a well-known antagonist and activist. His support for Palestine has been unwavering; but also controversial.

Roger joins Piers Morgan Uncensored with an energy and zeal most wouldn’t have at 80 years old. Piers asks him about his father, who fought the Nazis in World War 2, but also challenges him on his contentious stage shows, his views on Hamas, and his mistaken belief that Russia would not invade Ukraine. Roger barely allows Piers to speak, which is of course, no easy feat.

48:18 - “Are you antisemitic?”

What a fucking cop-out.

wp:Roger Waters#Politics

According to the documentary, in a 2010 email to his crew, Waters described his idea for the inflatable pig to be floated above his gigs, which would have the words "dirty kyke", "follow the money" and "Scum" written on it.[167] In response, Waters said that the "offensive words I referenced... were my brainstorming ideas on how to make the evils and horrors of fascism and extremism apparent", and "not the manifestation of any underlying bigotry as the film suggests".[167]

...

Waters responded to Morgan's question regarding Kfir Bibas, the youngest hostage who was 9 months old when kidnapped with his family, by calling it "nonsense".[176][178]
