Since the 1980s, the band has only regrouped just a few times for charitable causes. Gilmour said that the band will never be reunited again.<\/p>\n<p>Both Gilmour (76) and Waters (79), are self-identified Leftwingers. However, Waters has been a long-standing critic of Israel&#8217;s state, accusing it of complicity in numerous crimes. \u201cgenocide\u201d He has also been a long-standing supporter of the far-Left Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement that seeks to punish Israel. He was also a longtime supporter of the far-Left Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement that seeks punishment for Israel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Israelis are committing genocide,\u201d Water spoke in the interview. \u201cJust like Great Britain did during our colonial period, by the way. The British committed genocide against the indigenous people of North America, for example. So did the Dutch, the Spanish, the Portuguese even the Germans in their colonies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Waters posted a translation of the interview to his website. He claimed he was not anti-Semitic, and that he did not accuse the \u201cIsrael lobby\u201d You can commit a \u201cdespicable smear campaign\u201d He was defeated.<\/p>\n<p>Waters are also called President Joe Biden. \u201cwar criminal\u201d for supplying arms to Ukraine and said in a recent interview people should try to understand Russian President Vladimir Putin\u2019s position on the war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>After Samson\u2019s Twitter broadside, Waters\u2019 representatives responded by saying he was aware of the \u201cincendiary and wildly inaccurate comments made about him\u201d Which he \u201crefutes entirely.\u201d \u201cHe is currently taking advice to his position,\u201d This is the statement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Legendary Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour and his wife didn\u2019t hold back in ripping former bandmate Roger Waters, denouncing him on Twitter as a \u201cmisogynistic, anti-Semitic Putin apologist.\u201d The Rock and Roll Hall of Famers have famously feuded for years, but Monday\u2019s social media salvos showed Gilmour and his wife,\u00a0author Polly Samson, have utter contempt &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":729,"featured_media":1838081,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[541],"tags":[5977,8642,5130,14789,5171,17899,10895,3733,14066,4447,4110,4410],"class_list":["post-1838078","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-daily-wire","tag-anti-semitic","tag-apologist","tag-dark","tag-floyd","tag-guitarist","tag-loon","tag-pink","tag-putin","tag-roger","tag-slam","tag-waters","tag-wife"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1838078","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/729"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1838078"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1838078\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1838081"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1838078"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1838078"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1838078"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
