Former Pink Floyd bass player and vocalist Roger Waters offended some audience members at a concert last week when he raised a pig-shaped balloon emblazoned with the iconic Jewish symbol the Star of David and a variety of fascist symbols.
Waters has been a prominent pro-Palestinian activist, publicly advocating the BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) campaign to boycott Israel and is now being called “an open hater of Jews.”
Ynet reports that at Waters’ show in Belgium last Saturday, a balloon in the shape of a pig was raised overhead and on it a Star of David along with “symbols of dictatorial organizations and regimes from around the world.”
“Next to the Star of David, on the wild pig balloon, there was also a sign of oil conglomerate Shell, and a graffiti message stating, ‘Everything will be okay, just keep consuming,’ and ‘What’s wrong with people?’” reports Ynet.

Just last night I listened to DSOTM.
Second best selling album in history.
I saw the DSOTM show and The Division Bell Tour. The DSOTM was one of the lamest and the Division Bell show one of the best. My belief was that Gilmour was at his best and Waters was gone ;-)
Brain Damage...excellent song
Can’t sing for $hit either.
—Waters has made derogatory comments about Golden Dawn so he obviously isnt right wing.—
He’s a hardcore hereditary socialist.
He also has been living on his laurels as an artist since 1982, having put out nothing memorable since then.
People paying upwards of 200 bucks to see the world’s largest batch of HDTVs while Waters and his band of Pink Floyd replacement bots play the same old songs from 1979 are fools easily separated from their money.
Nor will I.
Waters is a tone-deaf (by his own admission), publicity-seeking whack job. Thank God Gilmour beat him in court for the name and for the music.
