I do not agree with all of the political views of Stevie Van Zandt, actor and musician who is a member of Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band. But in fairness, he has proven himself time and again to be a friend of Israel, ripping Israel-haters and BDS-Holes, and expressing his desire to perform here. He has also time and again called Israel the US’ best friend in the Middle East.
We cannot abandon the Kurds in Syria! Along with Israel they are our best friends in the Middle East! We should be supporting an independent Kurdistan! ISIS is still alive in Syria. And we are handing power to the axis of evil-Assad/Russia/Turkey/Hezbollah/Iran. Putin loves this.

This is extremely serious. An absolutely inexcusable betrayal of our Kurdish allies who, along with Israel, are our best friends in the Middle East. They beat ISIS. Not us. We should be supporting an independent Kurdistan. Not allowing their massacre. This is truly horrifying. https://t.co/MFAzrnzNVc

And now he has just thrown shade at Roger Waters. Again.
The Syd Barrett songs before he took over. I’m not a fan. https://t.co/Gem8bKHI6h

I believe he is referring to Waters, and not Pink Floyd in general, because it accords with what he has said before.
I am not a fan of Mr. Waters. Syd Barrett was Pink Floyd as far as I’m concerned. https://t.co/b8nsxTN7O5
