Title: ADL Finally acknowledges that Roger Waters/Pink Floyd is antisemitic
Post by: muman613 on September 28, 2010, 09:34:22 AM
I have been saying for many years that Roger Waters, the front-man for Pink Floyd, is an anti-semite. Many Pink Floyd songs and more lately Roger Waters songs are pro-arab and anti-Jewish...

Anti-Semitic Imagery Used in Roger Waters' Tour, Anti-Defamation League Says

Published September 28, 2010 | FoxNews.com

The Anti-Defamation League is criticizing what it says is the dark side of Pink Floyd legend Roger Waters, claiming imagery the British rock icon used in his latest tour is anti-Semitic.

Waters, a longtime vocal critic of Israel, takes aim at the Jewish nation's West Bank security fence during a segment of his 2010-2011 "The Wall Live" tour by using imagery associated with stereotypes about Jews and money, ADL officials say.

During Waters' recent performances of "Goodbye Blue Sky," an animated scene has projected images of planes dropping bombs in the shape of Jewish stars of David, followed by dollar signs -- an "outrageous" juxtaposition, according to Abraham Foxman, ADL's national director.

"While he insists that his intent was to criticize Israel's West Bank security fence, the use of such imagery in a concert setting seems to leave the message open to interpretation, and the meaning could easily be misunderstood as a comment about Jews and money," Foxman said in a statement.

"Of course Waters has every right to express his political views about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through his music and stagecraft," Foxman's statement continued.  "However, the images he has chosen, when put together in the same sequence, cross a line into anti-Semitism."

Foxman said he wished Waters, 67, had chosen another way to convey his political views without "dredging up the worst age-old anti-Semitic stereotype" about Jews and money.

Waters' representatives did not immediately reply to messages seeking comment on Tuesday.

In 2009, Waters reportedly used a tour of Israel to highlight his criticism of the country's controversial barrier surrounding the West Bank, characterizing it as an "awful thing" amounting to a land grab and openly hoping that it would be "destroyed soon."

I wrote 2 VERY serious letters to the ADL. I told them to change their stance to be pro-Jewish, and stop defaming Jews, and I asked them to start thinking on removing Chaim and the JDL off of their defamation site. 

I got a response..
July 9, I wrote the letters to them- previous to that, they were worried about the poor Moslems, on July 30, they came out and renounced the mosque, Geller from Atlas Shrugs covered the story. 

I told them that they endorsed the Moslem-Nazi Obama, so stop b*tchin about the Black Panthers, b/c they put the monster in the W.H.
----

Then, I started getting really nice emails from them, they have my email address, and I just wrote, yet another letter asking for them to remove Chaim and the JDL/JTF off of their site.

We'll see.

Shalom AsheDina,

Yes, I am aware of the ADL and its lack of care about Jewish issues. But on two issues I agree with the ADL. ADL came out against the 9/11 mosque, and now it is speaking out against Roger Waters antisemtic ideology.

I do hope that they find the truth and let them remove JTF and Chaim from their site.

I usually throw in the ADL, SPLC, ACLU and NAACP into the same category as nation-wrecking groups. It seems they are using their powers to do everything they can to destroy American society so I don't even care that much when they get one or two things right. I want those four organizations and any more like them totally dissolved.

They are also anti-gun and anti-american. I hate the ADL. Abraham Foxman is a whiner and doesn't do anything, I think he prefers us being victims.

Quote from: Foxman
"While he insists that his intent was to criticize Israel's West Bank security fence, the use of such imagery in a concert setting seems to leave the message open to interpretation, and the meaning could easily be misunderstood as a comment about Jews and money,"

He's an anti-Semite! but it's open to interpretation. Make up your darn mind Foxman, is he or is he not? If he's doing something anti-Semitic just come out and say it, don't waffle around like a little no-nuts coward. It could be misunderstood as a comment about Jews and money? What the hell? Did he mean it that way or not? I think it's stupid to imply that Waters could mean it any other way. Why such cautious and timid language?

Quote from: Foxman
"Of course Waters has every right to express his political views about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through his music and stagecraft," Foxman's statement continued.  "However, the images he has chosen, when put together in the same sequence, cross a line into anti-Semitism."

Of course, according to Foxman, a self-appointed champion of the Jewish people, and foe to all anti-Semites (not), taking the "palestinian" side of the conflict doesn't make one an anti-Semite. Hmmm, makes me wonder which side that HE's on!

Quote
Foxman said he wished Waters, 67, had chosen another way to convey his political views without "dredging up the worst age-old anti-Semitic stereotype" about Jews and money.

Translation: "Oh please Mr. anti-Semite, that's so mean, please stop it! I wish you'd express your hatred of Israelis and support of Arab terrorists who want to murder Israelis in a less anti-Semitic waaaaaay! Waaaaah! We beg you to looove us! Oh please oh please oh please!"

If Foxman had any guts, he would tell Waters if he didn't stop with the support of terrorists against good Israelis, that a certain member of Pink Floyd might be "destroyed soon", but of course Foxman is too chicken sh*t to do that.

Fauxman misses the whole point which is that the people who oppose Israel defense actions are inherently Jew-hater.

The ADL's response to anti-Semitism is what is the most appauling and pathetic thing about the organization. If some muslim nazi, black or leftist scum says something anti-Semitic they say we need to find understanding and tolerance through dialogue or some other faggy thing like that. Meanwhile, when a republican or Christian says something that can even halfway be construed as anti-Semitic they basically say that person should be thrown in jail for hate crimes. They give the real enemies of the Jews a complete pass while either wasting their breath on sodomites like David Duke/StørmFrønt or chastising conservatives for non-existent anti-Semitism.

Thank you, that was interesting... It was not as bad as I imagined it...

There were all kinds of symbolism in that video, but it is still disturbing that the Magen David was used in such a way. It seems to suggest that the Jewish symbol is associated with materialism and greed...

I must explain... I figured it would be way more antisemitic than this... When I think of RW I think of the following line from Perfect Sense on his Amused to Death (1992) album:

And the Germans killed the Jews
And the Jews killed the Arabs
And the Arabs killed the hostages
And that is the news
And is it any wonder
That the monkey's confused

It seems here that the Jews are blamed for terrorism...

What I know about Roger Waters and his lyrics which demonstrate absolute love for anti-Israel and pro-Arab causes would lead anyone to believe that he is an antisemite.

It is true that Jews can be antisemitic, but I doubt that Abe Foxman hates Jews... He may not be so bright about how he handles his position, but I have not seen anything which ADL has done which would rise to the level of antisemitic.

If you can show otherwise, go ahead..

I am not sure if Foxman was involved with the ADL at the time, but the ADL gave the FBI the lists of the names of people who were in the JDL in their heyday [for Jews to rat out righteous Jews in the galut, what a travesty!].

The ADL also targets righteous people who expose what a Mein Kampf the Quran and the Sunnah are.

The ADL unrighteously usurps the role of a righteous Jewish organization [such as JTF, or the JDL of old] by taking up space, media time, donations, and other things which are given to the ADL by Jews who think the ADL is a pro-Jew organization.

I'm not sure how to compare Roger Waters to Abe Foxman in terms of who has more hatred for the Jews in their heart.  I am sure that Foxman, and every other Jew who heads up a farce of a Jewish organization which does squat for Jews, does more damage to the Jewish people.

Ditto 1000%. If I am not mistaken Foxman bragged about infiltrating the JDL. Chaim can fill you in on that for sure though.

The GayDL is an organization ostensibly dedicated to fighting anti-Semitism, but whose real mission is to do everything in its power to prevent Jews from fighting back against it. Evil like that doesn't grow on trees. The survival of the Jewish people worldwide is not jeopardized because of two-bit, washed-up stoner "musicians" who are having fun with a light show during their doped-out performances, but because of JINOs who are every bit as treacherous as the kapos who served the Nazis in the death camps.

DBF,

It is a bit humorous to hear that from you, the one who constantly blathers on and on about the infidelities and immorality of all kinds of lame artists. Like Eminem who I had barely heard of in recent years until you started on a binge, spreading gossip and slander every day. You constantly bleat out the hatred you feel for artists like lady gaga, of whom most people I know don't know anything about. I truly think that there are more Pink Floyd fans in the world than there are Eminem fans, or even Eminem fans added to lady gaga fans.... Really it seems like comparing apples and oranges...

And basically spreading antisemitic libels are far more injurious to the world than sexual infidelity {which is serious in its own right}. The fact that Pink Floyd and Roger Waters are Mega Rock Stars who pull in more in a gig than all the bands you know pull in in a year. Maybe you didn't think before you spoke, as you often do...

I'll give you a chance to think this one over...

Why, hello.

And Roger Waters is not a "lame artist"?  :laugh:

Seriously, though, I think it's worth pointing out that neither I nor any other posters criticized your making of this thread. It was completely relevant to JTF and completely worth posting. The issue at hand is that a few of us pointed out Foxman's hypocrisy and you appeared to be offended, not that people disliked the topic in and of itself. So, in short, nobody "dissed" the thread.

Quote
Like Eminem who I had barely heard of in recent years until you started on a binge, spreading gossip and slander every day.
Eminem just released an album this summer and his face was constantly in the news. His disgusting record was number one for at least two months this summer. It was impossible to avoid him. However I am more interested in the latter part of your statement; are you attempting to assert that I made up lies about that rapper? If so I'm interested in seeing what evidence you offer. I recall backing up every single one of my claims about him with a link. Most of them were actually words out of his own mouth easily findable on Youtube. Therefore I'm not sure how they qualify as "gossip" and "slander", unless you believe that the news media, which worships Eminem, is engaged in a grand conspiracy to put words in his mouth.

Quote
You constantly bleat out the hatred you feel for artists like lady gaga, of whom most people I know don't know anything about.
So, what was this diatribe against Mr. Waters if not "hatred"? But, getting back to topic, with all due respect you are middle-aged and probably are not on the pulse of artists that are considered cool/hip today. I for one haven't seen Pink Floyd in the news all year, until now.

Quote
I truly think that there are more Pink Floyd fans in the world than there are Eminem fans, or even Eminem fans added to lady gaga fans.... Really it seems like comparing apples and oranges...
I very seriously doubt this, at this given moment in time.

Quote

Evil is evil, end of story. Do you really not believe that artists that are promoting sexual perversions are anti-Semites? Let me give you some instances.

--Eminem refuses to perform in Israel.
--A poster claiming to be Vanessa Hudgens made a positive comment on a Jew-hating, pro-Arab blog about Gaza in early 2009.
--Angelina Jolie is a major Fakestinian activist and spokeswoman.

Do you not think that amoral, degraded youth are going to be far more pro-Arab and anti-Israel than those who have values?

Quote

Do you have some attendance or ticket-sale figures? I'd really like to see some support for that. Name the last time Roger Waters was on a magazine cover, featured as the headliner of a relevant entertainment show, or released a multiplatinum album of original origin. He had his day, but as of current is little more than a "rock legend". I don't see him having much ability to draw in new young fans or sway those with impressionable views. When was the last time teenagers went on YouTube to check out the "latest" Pink Floyd video?

But let's take your fears at face value and pretend that Waters has the power to convert every single concertgoer at his shows to anti-Semitism. What did he just accomplish? So a bunch of old ex-hippie stoners hate Jews now. What are they going to do, charter a plane over Israel and drop LSD tabs on the Holy Land? Do tell me who has more credibility and clout on Jewish issues: Abraham Foxman or Roger Waters. I for one continue to believe that working with your heart and soul to defend jihadists and their organizations, and bragging about ratting out Jewish organizations and activists to the feds, is substantially more injurious to Jews than some pathetic commie propaganda at a lame concert.

בס''ד

The ADL yimach shmam has openly bragged that they inform on their fellow Jews. We as Jews are commanded to curse informers three times a day in our prayers. We pray for their death and destruction.

The ADL and Abe Foxman defend the Muslim Nazis who seek to exterminate us. After 911, when Christian ministers like Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell and Franklin Graham quoted verses from the Koran to prove that Islam preaches hatred, terrorism and even genocide against non-Muslim "infidels", Foxman and the ADL immediately condemned the Christian ministers as "bigots". Foxman and the ADL created a situation in which everyone was afraid to take an honest look at what is written in the Koran and the Hadith.

The ADL publicly lobbied the Israeli Knesset to ban HaRav Meir Kahane and the Kach movement. This is the same ADL that opposes banning Arab Nazi parties who call for Israel's annihilation and who openly support Muslim terrorist organizations.

The ADL publicly supported the Oslo surrender accords, where G-d given Jewish land was handed over to the Arab Hitler Yasser Arafat and the PLO-Hamas terrorist mass murderers. Notice the Jew-hating positions taken by these Judenrat kapo ADL criminals: Rabbi Meir Kahane is unacceptable and should be banned, but the Arab Hitler Yasser Arafat is acceptable and a "partner for peace".

During the Nazi holocaust, the ADL was one of the cowardly traitor organizations that watched in murderous silence as over 6 million Jews were butchered. The same ADL that rushes to defend Islam and Muslims, was nowhere to be found when Roosevelt yimach shmo refused to bomb the rail lines leading to the Nazi death camps. The blood of over 6 million Jews is on the hands of the ADL and the other cowardly traitor Jewish establishment organizations.

In the struggle to save 2 million Soviet Jews, the ADL spent all of its time spying on the JDL on behalf of the FBI. The ADL repeatedly urged the federal and local political leaders to arrest and imprison JDL freedom fighters. Again, this is the same ADL that later supported and defended Arafat and the PLO.

The ADL are not anti-Semites, Nazis or Muslim terrorists. They are far worse. They are the enemy from within. May Hashem rid this world of these evil self-hating creatures.

I feel like what Dr. Brennan Fan does is important because music is one major way that society is injected with really bad ideas. Lady Gaga isn't just evil, all her videos have Satanist style imagery in them. In the Bad Romance video for example, the "good" personality loses out to the "Evil" personality, and then Lady Gaga has implied sex with Satan and takes him into her body in that way. Her lyrics are also degenerate. Eminem's song 3am inspired a man to go nuts and murder his family while listening to it. This is not neutral stuff that people just listen to for entertainment, this stuff gets down into people's minds and harms them.  

I think that Pink Floyd isn't a major threat as far as anti-Semitism goes, but as far as spreading degeneracy in general, music and entertainment in general are very big tools for this purpose used by evil people.

בס''ד

The ADL yimach shmam has openly bragged that they inform on their fellow Jews. We as Jews are commanded to curse informers three times a day in our prayers. We pray for their death and destruction.

The ADL and Abe Foxman defend the Muslim Nazis who seek to exterminate us. After 911, when Christian ministers like Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell and Franklin Graham quoted verses from the Koran to prove that Islam preaches hatred, terrorism and even genocide against non-Muslim "infidels", Foxman and the ADL immediately condemned the Christian ministers as "bigots". Foxman and the ADL created a situation in which everyone was afraid to take an honest look at what is written in the Koran and the Hadith.

The ADL publicly lobbied the Israeli Knesset to ban HaRav Meir Kahane and the Kach movement. This is the same ADL that opposes banning Arab Nazi parties who call for Israel's annihilation and who openly support Muslim terrorist organizations.

The ADL publicly supported the Oslo surrender accords, where G-d given Jewish land was handed over to the Arab Hitler Yasser Arafat and the PLO-Hamas terrorist mass murderers. Notice the Jew-hating positions taken by these Judenrat kapo ADL criminals: Rabbi Meir Kahane is unacceptable and should be banned, but the Arab Hitler Yasser Arafat is acceptable and a "partner for peace".

During the Nazi holocaust, the ADL was one of the cowardly traitor organizations that watched in murderous silence as over 6 million Jews were butchered. The same ADL that rushes to defend Islam and Muslims, was nowhere to be found when Roosevelt yimach shmo refused to bomb the rail lines leading to the Nazi death camps.

Yes, I agree with everything you said.  As much as I hate Roger Waters, by the ADL focusing on him, and ignoring the true, far more hidious Jew hatred from Muslims, it hurts the Jewish cause 1000x more than is helps it.  

Gentiles, Hindus, etc might see this and say........  'Geesh, look at how the ADL steps in for such a trivial matter, they would never do that if those bombs had crosses on them or a band was anti-hindu....  The Jews are a whiny group, what a double standard, etc etc...'

Pink Floyd have been nominated for and won several awards,[266] including a Grammy in 1995 for "Rock Instrumental Performance" on "Marooned";[267] inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (17 January 1996)[268] and UK Music Hall of Fame (16 November 2005),[269][270] and the Polar Music Prize for their contribution to contemporary music in 2008 when Waters and Mason received the prize from King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden.[271] Technical awards include a "Best Engineered Non-Classical Album" Grammy in 1980 for The Wall;[272] and a BAFTA for sound in 1982 for the film.[273]

The group has sold over 200 million albums worldwide,[274][275] including 74.5 million certified units in the United States.[276] The Sunday Times Rich List 2009 ranks Waters at No. 657 with an estimated wealth of £85m, Gilmour at No. 742 with £78m, and Mason at No. 1077 with £50m.[277]

Numerous artists have been influenced by Pink Floyd's work, including David Bowie,[278] Supertramp,[279] Blur,[280][281] The Flaming Lips[282] and The Smashing Pumpkins.[283] A teenage The Edge (of U2 fame) bought his first delay pedal after hearing the opening to Animals,[284] and the Pet Shop Boys paid homage to The Wall during a performance in Boston.[285] Marillion guitarist Steve Rothery has cited Pink Floyd as "a major inspiration".[286]

April 6, 1997

Members of Pink Floyd among U.K.'s wealthiest

In early April, London's Sunday Times reported that David Gilmour is the 334th richest person in Great Britian, with £55 million. David Gilmour Music and David Gilmour Music Overseas show that Gilmour's salary fell from £3.6 million to £2.8 million. However, The Division Bell album and tour of 1994 grossed £200 million and these numbers now figure into the revenues. Furthermore, Pink Floyd probably has the second biggest-selling back catalogue in the U.K. after the Beatles.

Nick Mason and Roger Waters are tied (along with a few others) at 461st position, with about £40 million apiece. Mason is estimated to hold £38 million including his portion of the £150 million generated by the Division Bell tour. Waters' earnings were £3 million in 1995, and his holdings are estimated at £35 million.

Richard Wright was ranked 766th on the U.K. "rich list" with holdings estimated at £20 million.

Sadly, Roger Waters' old nemesis Lord Andrew Lloyd-Webber has them all beat. Webber ranked as the 24th richest, with £550 million.

Forbes magazine put Pink Floyd's income at £85 million from 1987 to 1995.

Apparently eminem is worth $115M and Roger Waters is $85M... But combine all the members of Pink Floyd and you exceed the value of eminem.

RW $85M
David Gilmour $95M
Rick Write $70M
Nick Mason $75M

Hmm, a total of $325M...

How many of those records have been sold recently, as in the past ten years? And how many have been purchased by persons in their formative years, i.e. preadolescence thru mid-twenties?

Lady Gaga has sold 13 albums in about three years, a far greater pace than Roger Waters has had--and this is in an era where widespread downloading/filesharing/Youtube has killed record sales. And, virtually all of those were sold to impressionable youths. http://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/00034666.html

At this time I find it hard to find anything good about RW... I would say I would say Y-S to him.

But I do not spend a good deal of time worrying about it. I only brought it up because of the news item I read yesterday which discussed the ADLs statement.

I prefer that Christians always leave a door open for redemption pretty much, and not curse someone to have no hope. However I do think that DBF's work in exposing what these monstrous people are doing to society has value. If you get a chance look into the symbolisms these evil people are using. I used to not understand why he was focusing on that, but then I realized that the average young person is probably much more influenced by someone like Lady Gaga than someone like Glenn Beck.

In some respects DBF is correct when he posts about the evil influences that some of the entertainers of today pose to today's youth...However this is what the evil media of today wants Americas youth to be focused on. I am not sure but I believe we both have a few more years under our belts then he does and we tend to look at a bigger picture... I don't know about the media in your part of the country but here in New York it contains most of what DBF complains about before what I would consider more pressing world events...This garbage is what the youth of today is interested in... The shvartza in the White house is selling them down the river but the media is telling them what some drug addicted actor is doing or not doing...If the youth of today does not start looking past the smoke and mirrors America is in real problems.

ROTFLMAO @ Fauxman  :::D :laugh:

Really though, you are absolutely right. This Nazi pig (Foxman, yimach schmo) actually had the gall to state that it was okay to bash Israel! Here is the exact quote:

Quote from: Abraham Foxman
Of course Waters has every right to express his political views about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through his music and stagecraft...

WTF?!?!? With "Jews" like Abe Foxman, who needs Nazis? Foxman is completely OK with the most vicious libels imaginable against the Jewish state; he only had a problem with the dollar-signs symbols--probably because he himself is a stinking rich piece of excrement (just like Roger Waters, another hypocrite, but I digress).
