Over a month ago I created – to paraphrase Donald Trump – “the biggest, the greatest, the most extensive” video documenting the antisemitism of “anti-Zionist-not-antisemite Roger Waters.”
Naturally, it turns out there are even more examples of his antisemitism, which I only just discovered thanks to Twitter user The Golem (via MrTwyst). And these old-new examples are among the worst I have seen.
In the first clip, Waters accuses Sheldon Adelson (who he elsewhere spoke about while invoking the antisemitic trope of the ‘puppet master’) of conflating Zionism with Judaism – before launching into an antisemitic diatribe about “Jewish victimhood” and “chosen-ness”, inadvertently showing how his critics really are not conflating anti-Zionism and antisemitism at all.
In the second example, Waters mocks Eli Wiesel, by repeating the theme that Jews really only care about themselves, and no-one else, while engaging in Holocaust inversion.
At this point in time, I am convinced that the only people not willing to see @RogerWaters' vile #antisemitism for what it is are those who themselves hate #Jews. More here: https://t.co/5vSB1QLuXt pic.twitter.com/urX3NNLy7H

Shocking yet not surprising.
