Pink Floyd co-founder Rogers Waters defended the murderous regime in Iran, one week after defending former Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro, calling claims that Iran has been a leading sponsor of terrorism around the world “nonsense.”
“The government sent the police out to protect those grocers, those business owners, those ordinary working people in Iran, ok? And they were attacked by a gang of armed thugs who murdered, we believe, armed thugs, probably organized by MI6 and the CIA,” Waters said about the deadly response from Iran’s government to protesters in an appearance this weekend on Piers Morgan Uncensored. Water went on to say he supports the Iranian regime before slamming the U.S. government’s crackdown on illegal immigration.
“They’re not. They were protesting against inflation, the devaluation of their currency,” Waters said when Piers Morgan asked why thousands of people across nearly 200 Iranian cities have taken to the streets to protest their own government.

I have no words.
Sid Barrett isn’t the only one who lost his mind in that group.
No moral compass. It’s all just relative.
I’ll take “Hopelessly stupid and ignorant has-beens” for $500 Alex.
Who says that people can’t sell their souls to satan?
I have NO interest in anything Roger Waters has to say. NONE.
Anyone, who thinks that flying inflatable pigs bedecked with Jewish religious symbols above the stage in his concerts is some kind of “profound” sociopolitical statement is right up there with toddlers smearing the walls of their crib with excrement just to see their mother’s reaction, IMO.
Rogers is an idiot has been.
Has been a long, long time.
I totally agree with you.
It’s a shame because I used to like their music, and a number of their songs were in my repertoire (Wish You Were Here, Time, Comfortably Numb, etc).
Now I can’t sing those songs, without thinking about what an antisemitic pig waters is.
Must have been hit by a brick in the road. He don’t need no education: wouldn’t do him any good.
Roger Waters also hates Israel, or more likely, Jewish people.
He has become comfortably dumb.
I literally just bent my DSOM gold cd in half.
I wonder how many hypocrites won’t.
Pink Floyd always has and always will suck. Music for the drug addled mind.
dont ruin a great music legacy with your stupidity
Question. Who in the hell gives a rat’s a** what a drug addled, oversexed, pervert opines about Iran? Give us a break.
Roger finally goes off the deep end
Oh well, why not? The Iranian leadership is part of the “resistance” - anti-American, anti- western values, anti-Israel. Why not defend Iran?
When did Roger Waters go insane?
The Jew Hater speaks.
