While I don’t support Waters’ position on Israel, is it anti-Semitic to be against the state of Israel? I mean...are the True Torah Jews - who IIRC are opposed to the formation of the modern state of Israel - anti-Semitic?? Serious question.
‘“Whatever definition of anti-Semitism you abide by…Roger Waters is most certainly guilty,” says the B’nai Brith Canada CEO, who initiated the screening of the film exposing Roger Waters.
Ahead of former Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters’ Canadian tour in October, B’nai Brith Canada and award-winning filmmaker Ian Halperin are set to premiere a new film—“Wish You Weren’t Here”—exposing the anti-Israel rocker’s history of promoting anti-Semitism.
Waters—who has compared the Israeli government to Nazi Germany and has claimed the “powerful Jewish lobby” runs the media—is arguably the most vocal figure behind the anti-Israel BDS movement. He is also the most prominent voice in pressuring other artists to boycott performances in the Jewish state.’

‘“What Roger Waters is doing is espousing hatred, vitriol and extreme prejudice against Israel and the Jewish people…if he’d been doing this against any other race he’d be stopped,” New York Times bestselling author Halperin, the film’s producer, told JNS.org.’
