Is it any wonder the pro-Israeli lobby in the US (the deliberately generically misnamed @CreativeCommunityForPeace , the Hollywood strong-arm Israeli Lobby) finally got @rogerwaters cancelled from Sony?
In 2012 Roger Waters gave a speech to the UN presenting the findings of a Global Russel Tribunal of Civil Society on Palestine and supporting the case for Palestine’s promotion to observer status (duly voted in by a huge majority).
See this excerpt from his excellent speech.
It’s the 2012 version of “but Hamas …” and “… it started in October 7th…” with respect to 2008 Israeli “Operation Cast Lead” - called a “heavy-handed massacre” by @amnesty International in its subsequent report - the Israelis then of course pleading it was all started by Hamas rocket attacks.
Noting then as now the actual trigger was Israel’s brutal oppression of then 60 years.
And we’re talking about this same sh*t on a different scale 13 years later…. perhaps the technological advances permitting the live streaming of the current horrific events and global transparency of a more aware civil society are finally getting an inroads into this injustice and the hypocrisy of the states and institutions protecting Israel’s atrocities.
It shows Roger Waters’ long-term commitment to the cause and no wonder he was finally cancelled last year.
Free Palestine.✊🇵🇸
