British rock guitar legend Eric Clapton moved one step closer to Roger Waters territory last week, telling an interviewer that “Israel is running the world, Israel is running the show.”
The 79-year-old musician, who has recently performed playing a guitar painted in the colors of the Palestinian flag, was interviewed on May 22 by David Spuria, an American Youtuber who hosts the popular Real Music Observer show.
alking about the recent campus protests in the US against Israel, Clapton criticized the Senate hearings in which university presidents were asked about antisemitism on campus.
“I was so enthused about what was going on at Columbia [University] and elsewhere. And then what I couldn’t believe, because it freaked me out, were the Senate hearings, which were like the Nuremberg trials, you know?” he said.

Clapton is a great musician, but a full-on Nazi.
Funny how he casts the Nuremberg Trials as some kind of injustice. .
He evidently doesn’t like seeing Nazis being held to account for their crimes.
Talented Eric Clapton is appealing to the many violent Muslims in the world so his revenues will not be hurt. If people like him allow the Muslims to rule he will be put in chains, sodomized and burned alive. It must be so cool to go with a popular yet totally wrong narrative just to stay relevant.
If Israel (read: Jews) ran the world there would be no PLO/HAMAS hijacking of so many useful idiots who are out there protesting without having the faintest clue as to what they are doing and represent.
Unfortunately those COVID shots did something to his brain. Not that he was ever any great intellect anyway. Let’s see, we’ve had the great thinker Robert De Niro this week, giving his very well-thought out opinion on President Trump. Now Clapton on Israel. Who’s next up for great, relevant, opining octo-entertainment figures? Neil Young? Can’t wait to get his insights. Excited to hear the topic.
He’s OK for giving the finger to Covid masking and vax requirements early on. Saw him play in 2021, great show.
Overrated musician is now an overrated thinker.
You took the words out of my mouth. If Israel is ruling the world they’re doing a pretty lousy job of it, what with last year’s massacre and the continued threats and attacks from Iran and its proxies. If that’s what ruling the world looks like, then ruling the world is highly over rated.
“I was so enthused about what was going on at Columbia [University] and elsewhere...
His bring has been liquidfied
Funny how the protests sponteneously started at woke universities at the same time. Those encampments had the same tents. Almost, like they are funded and organised....
University of Toronto. The University sends out strongly worded letters>exit this PRIVATE PROPERTY! The “protestors” stay and folks wring their hands
[“I was so enthused about what was going on at Columbia [University] and elsewhere.]
Oh yeah, like totally. /rolls eyes
Love your music, so leave it at that and shut up.
If Israel is running the world, then how come the majority of the United Nations is against them?
Wasn’t he one of the first people to rush out and get a vaccine?
Clapton is a chosen one of the demon Allah.
He would copmpose music to play along with the Oct 7 genocide of the Jews:

From: Nataliya Rulyova
Hello, Dina!
The Pushkin House announced our upcoming conference on social media and immediately received critical messages regarding your position on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. They wanted to understand your position on this issue before responding. Could you formulate your position and send it to me as soon as possible?

Then followed Ms Rubina’s response:
******************************************
From: Dina Rubina
To: Nataliya Rulyova
Dear Natalia!
You’ve written beautifully about my novels, and I’m so sorry for the time you’ve wasted, because apparently we have to cancel our meeting.
The universities of Warsaw and Torun have just canceled lectures by the wonderful Russian-speaking Israeli writer Yakov Shechter on the life of Galicia’s Jews in the 17th and 19th centuries “to avoid making the situation worse.” I suspected that this would affect me too, since academia is now the main breeding ground for the most disgusting and virulent anti-Semitism, disguised as so-called “criticism of Israel.” I was expecting something like this, and I even decided to write you an email about it… but I put it aside. It’s time for me to publish it.
This is what I want to say to all those who expect from me a quick and obsequious report on my position regarding my beloved country, which currently lives (and always has) surrounded by ferocious enemies who seek to destroy it . My country which is waging a just war today against a rabid, ruthless, deceptive and cunning enemy. The last time I apologized was in elementary school, in the principal’s office, I was 9 years old. Since then, I have been doing what I think is right, listening only to my conscience and expressing exclusively my understanding of the world order and human laws of justice.
Natalia, thank you for your efforts, and I personally ask you to send my answer to all those who are wondering.
On October 7, Saturday, the Jewish holiday of Simchat Torah, the ruthless, well-trained, well-prepared and well-equipped Hamas terrorist regime of Iran, Hamas, which rules in the Gaza enclave (which Israel left around twenty years ago), attacked dozens of peaceful kibbutzim and bombarded my country with tens of thousands of rockets. Hamas has committed atrocities that even the Bible cannot describe, atrocities that rival the crimes of Sodom and Gomorrah. Atrocities filmed by the way, by GoPro cameras, the murderers having taken the horror to the point of sending the images to their families or on social networks in real time.
For hours, thousands of happy, blood-drunk beasts raped women, children and men, shooting their victims in the crotch and heads, cutting off the women’s breasts and playing football with them, cutting off the babies from the wombs of pregnant women and immediately decapitating them, tying up and burning the small children. There were so many charred bodies that, for many weeks, forensic pathologists could not cope with the enormous workload of identifying individuals.
A friend of mine, who worked in the emergency room of a New York hospital for 20 years, then in Israel for 15 years, was one of the first to arrive in the kibbutzim, as part of a team of rescuers and of doctors. She still hasn’t been able to sleep since.
While she is an emergency specialist, accustomed to dissected bodies and corpses, she fainted when she saw the macabre sight and vomited all the way back in the car. Among the Hamas militants, Palestinian civilians rushed in, participating in pogroms of unprecedented scale, pillaging, killing, dragging everything they could get their hands on. Among these “Palestinian civilians” were 450 members of this highly regarded organization UNRWA (United Nations Relief Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East).
Judging by the utter joy of the population (also captured by thousands of mobile cameras), Hamas is supported by almost the entire population of Gaza. But the essential is there for us: More than two hundred Israelis, including women, children, the elderly and foreign workers, were dragged into the beast’s den. A hundred of them are still rotting and dying in Hamas dungeons.
It goes without saying that these victims, who continue to be mocked, are of little concern to the “academic community”. But that’s not what I’m talking about right now. I am not writing this so that anyone will sympathize with the tragedy of my people.
During all these years, while the international community has literally poured hundreds of millions of dollars into this piece of land (the Gaza Strip) — UNRWA’s annual budget alone is equivalent to a billion dollars! — During all these years, Hamas used this money to build an empire with a complex system of underground tunnels, stockpile weapons, teach schoolchildren from primary school to disassemble and assemble Kalashnikov assault rifles, print textbooks in which hatred of Israel is indescribable, in which even math problems look like this calling for the murder of Jews with every word:
There were ten Jews, the shahid killed four, how many are left?
And now, when finally shocked by the monstrous crime of these bastards, Israel is waging a war of annihilation against the Hamas terrorists who so carefully prepared this war, who placed thousands of shells in all the hospitals, the schools, kindergartens…
The academic community, which was not concerned about the massacres in Syria, nor the massacre in Somalia, nor the mistreatment inflicted on the Uighurs, nor the millions of Kurds persecuted by the Turkish regime for decades, this very worried community, which wears “arafatkas” [keffiyehs], the trademark of murderers, around their necks at rallies under the slogan “Liberate Palestine from the river to the sea”, which means the total destruction of Israel (and Israelis). “Academics”, as polls show, have no idea where this river is, what it is called, where certain borders are located.
And it is this same public which asks me “to express a position clear on the issue”. Are you really serious!
As you know, I have been a professional writer for over 50 years. My novels have been translated into 40 languages, including Albanian, Turkish, Chinese, Esperanto, and many more.
Now, with great pleasure, without choosing my expressions too much, I sincerely and with all the strength of my soul send to all the brainless “intellectuals” who are interested in my position to go fuck themselves.

Back in the day, National Lampoon had “Letters from the Editors”-fake letters that were extremely funny.
One of the better ones read:
Dear Sirs:
I meant to write “Clapton is good.” I hope I didn’t cause a problem.

Nobody plays guitar well enough to enthusiastically support barbaric, murdering terrorists.
No Arab nation wants any of those savages to enter its lands. That tells you everything you need to know.
Eric Clapton is as sick as the sub-humans he supports.
It’s the old Blood Libel that Jews run the world but nowadays it wasn’t so popular (until now) to use the word “Jews”. No just say “Israel” and you get a great substitute without being called an Antisemite. Terrible situation for the Western world as Israel is the symbolic Western country coming under attack by the forces of evil Islam. Europe and Scandinavia don’t realize this is every bit of a war against them too. Instead, they attack an ally out of fear from their ever-increasing Muslim populations that will swamp them within 20 years.
Neil Young can’t sing. He whines.
Rock legend? I thought a legend was a story that wasn’t true.
