31. Re Musicians Boycott
marty ,   Toronto, Canada   (03.23.13)
Don't boycott the musicians who boycott or encourage the boycott of Israel - help spread their music around, while denying them any revenue. Download their music via BitTorrents and seed seed seed.
32. I don´t understand
A Base ,   France Paris   (03.23.13)
I really don´t understand why the Mossad don´t take care of antisemites like waters, it is easy to compel respect from such people. This idiot would never mess with the Italo-mafia , because he can figure the unforseen consequences. Israel is losing respect more and more. A bit polonium 210 work wonders !
33. #22 jarda in the czech republic
marvyn ,   united kingdon   (03.23.13)
Jerusalem has been the capital of Israel since biblical times, 3,000 years ago. You can't go back in time much furthur can you? Where in the Bible does it mention the word Palestine? It doesn't. So Jarda whom does the land belong to? And by the way, Israel publishes numerous papers on medicine and science every year; one of the top countries in medical and science research. What does the Czech Republic do?
34. To much intoxication from his hay days
tiki ,   belgium   (03.23.13)
have left his brain cells shriveled. The man doesn't have a clue what he's talking about, but for him it's a cheap way to get some free publicity because "bashing Israel sells.......for now, because slowly but surely people start to look through the lies from those fake ''boycotters. Except from selling his ''wall'' again, there is nothing left for him what people want to hear, so turning to the ''boycott Israel" is a good gimmick.
35. #1 Millions of Palestinians dying ...ARE YOU NUTS?!
Alfredo ,   Raanana   (03.23.13)
36. Roger Waters
Jeffrey ,   Israel   (03.23.13)
Rich but clueless! Better men than he have performed here. He should study the situation before he makes these outrageous comments.
37. Go roll a doob
ASTRONAUT ,   SC, USA   (03.23.13)
Waters, crawl back to the 70's, roll yourself a doob, and vegetate for the rest of your sad, unproductive life.
38. Who cares?
Alex   (03.23.13)
39. #36 Jeffrey: Yes, rich on Jewish and Israeli money!
David ,   Israel   (03.23.13)
Another has-been trying to get into the limelight by by siding with child-killers who have probably never of of Pink Floyd or Roger Waters!
40. The Unholy Trinity. I like it, # 2. Thanks a lot.
Adam Smith   (03.23.13)
41. Roger Waters
Truthfull! ,   Australia!!!   (03.23.13)
#1, What a load of rubbish! Israel is NOT a Apartheid State,This term was raised by Desmond Tutu, a notorius Jew hater! The Apartheid states exist mainly in Arab countries! The only true democracy in the Middle East is Israel. I am tired of reading crap written by these "do gooders!
42. this is why i boycotted him when he came to Ft. Lauderdale
Miami boy   (03.23.13)
43. waters & floyd . . . I am one who doesn't want 2 listen to
Moshe ,   Usa   (03.23.13)

44. 1@stay in your country who needs you at all
dovdevan ,   ashdod,paris   (03.23.13)

Michel ,   Paris France   (03.23.13)

46. Roger Waters is correct
Mike   (03.23.13)
Israel should be boycotted and sanctioned until it gets it act in order and ends it's brutal occupation of Palestinian land.
47. Anti BDS anti Incitement
Bob ,   Canada   (03.23.13)
Israel can easily overcome this. All boycots must end before 2 state solutions are discussed. Each artist boycott will construct 1,000 new housing units.
48. Ban Roger Waters from Israel for life
steve from raleigh   (03.23.13)
Take him at his word. Make it specifically a crime for Roger Waters to ever set foot in Israel.
49. Another "has been" trying to gain...
Maurice ,   Montreal   (03.23.13)
...publicity. Who cares? Saying Israel is an apartheid country while Israeli Arabs participate fully in every aspect of Israeli life (even Knesset MPs) is nothing but hateful despicable antisemitic propaganda. He is showing to the world that he is nothing but human trash.
50. to#22
Klara   (03.23.13)
Jewish people are not stealing anyone's land. G-d gave this land to Jewish people to Abraham, Issac and Jacob. Just read the Bible and see for yourself and stop being antisemitic. Klara
51. bravo roger water
adam adam ,   earth planet   (03.23.13)
i support this guy
52. Roger Waters is a #1 hasbeen .....
ben ,   israel   (03.23.13)
so hyped up on drugs his brain is scrambled. He was always a weirdo. Hope folks who still like his music will D/L for free...no royalties. Did he write to Stevie Wonder in Brail? We have many that love coming here to perform, so who needs the junkie!
53. Mr ? Waters how much were you paid ?
Fire ,   Israel   (03.23.13)
Who is this Waters? He probably produces as discordant songs as he produced this miscarriage. What a DUMB article!!!
54. Pink who !!
Michel ,   Paris France   (03.23.13)
Never hear about Paul Mac cartney the Beatles Yes
55. What a Hypocrit
Shimon ,   Cincinnati, USA   (03.23.13)
Historic Waters quote: I think that happiness resides somewhere between the extremes of personal, religious, and political. I think happiness resides where we understand someone else’s point of view and needs. Happiness resides where we are not lost in the solitary dream." Really? His BDS/Apartheid nonsense is awfully one sided, and where's the "try to understand someone else's point of view"? So much for left wing liberal social politics. "Agree with me or I'll boycott you." LOL.
56. to #1: Brazilian Singers!
Marcel ,   Brazil   (03.23.13)
Are you crazy? millions of palestinians death? where? Maybe in Syria...
57. ROGER WALTERS
CAPTAIN OBVIOUS ,   SAFED OPERA HOUSE   (03.23.13)
He comes across as an arronat ,second-rate antisemite.
58. The article's title should read.....
Mark ,   Lodz, Poland   (03.23.13)
'Hasbeen' Waters last ditch attempt for attention.
59. Finally, he managed to get some publicity that he lacks
Ruti ,   Kibbutz Dalia   (03.23.13)
60. HOW WILL WE SURVIVE WITHOUT ?
DA RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED RAP HOUSE   (03.23.13)
Ho w will Israel survive without being subjected to Roger Walters' interminable and insufferable dross which abuses the term " music " and Stevie Wonders" la la la tedious drones ? I thank Hashem for small mercies.
