Roger Waters calls Bono "disgusting" and "a shit"

Roger Waters has lashed out at U2 frontman Bono, describing him as “disgusting” and “a shit”.

The comments against the Irish rock singer arose in a new interview with Waters, and saw the Pink Floyd musician criticise the former for his previous comments on the Israel-Hamas war.

Speaking during one of their Sphere residency shows in Las Vegas, Bono used the performance to pay his respects to those killed during the October 7 attack at the Israeli music festival Supernova.

“In the light of what’s happened in Israel and Gaza, a song about non-violence seems somewhat ridiculous, even laughable, but our prayers have always been for peace and for non-violence,” he told the crowd before launching into a performance of ‘Pride (In The Name Of Love)’. “But our hearts and our anger, you know where that’s pointed. So sing with us… and those beautiful kids at that music festival.”

He then played the song with altered lyrics, singing “Early morning, Oct. 7, the sun is rising in the desert sky… Stars of David, they took your life but they could not take your pride,” in place of the original lines.

Now, Waters – who has been a longtime critic of the State of Israel – has taken aim at the musician for his comments during a new interview with Al Jazeera (via Clash) , and branded the comments made at the live show “disgusting”.

“My mother told me, when faced with difficult problems, the first thing to do is to read—read, read, read. Then, the next part is easy: do the right thing,” he told the outlet, referring to his own family background that saw his father killed in the Second World War.

“Anybody who knows Bono should go and pick him up by his ankles and shake him… until he stops being an enormous shit.”

“We have to start saying to these people, your opinion is so disgusting and so degrading… sticking up for the Zionist entity,” he added. “What he did a couple of weeks ago in the Sphere in Las Vegas, singing about the Stars of David, was one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in my life.”

They should both just retire and shit the fuck up. There are few things that mean less to me , than the opinions of pampered multi millionaires .

As opposed to the opinion of some random guy on the internet.

Somehow I don't thnk Waters would talk this way about the other current case where a backwards petrostate with imperialist ambitions attacked a multi-ethnic and (somewhat) democratic neighbour and killed thousands of their citizens.

I am talking about Russia and Ukraine. Even if Waters displayed "Stop rattling your sabres at the Russians" at his 2018 shows", he also labeled Putin a fascist along with Orban, Kaczynski and Le Pen.

Hell yeah, why would you listen to opinions of guys who have traveled the world countless times and seen all of this stuff first hand? Fuck those pampered millionaires.

I'm sure the limo drove right through there on the way to their penthouse hotel rooms.

But they saw it. Different seeing it in person than on your TV. (Even through a limo window which would likely make them feel a lot worse & get more involved)

Did they now . I'm holding off forming any opinion until i know what Ace Frehley and Wolfie Van Halen think.

Hot take - You can feel bad for a bunch of kids that died at a music festival and still think Netanyahu & the IDF are genocidal pieces of shit. They aren't mutually exclusive opinions..

Ace doesn't have 2 brain-cells to rub together, and Wolfie can't fit in a limo.

Yeah, but did Bono include the kids in Gaza in his comments? He's a bit naive if he didn't think this would get picked up on.

Bono's comments were made just a day or two after the Hamas/Islamic Jihad attack on Israel. The Israeli military hadn't moved into Gaza at that point.

At least Boner doesn't steal from fans with his lip synch nonsense!

Are you guys disgusted by the American genocide of the Japanese in WWII?

You're an idiot. Not even remotely the same thing.

You're going to have to be a lot more specific, because if that's some sort of comment about Hiroshima and Nagasaki, it's not just apples and oranges, it's apples and watermelons.

The Japanese started that war, (and had been killing Chinese for 8 years before even attacking us, the violence didn't start in Pearl Harbor), and they weren't going to stop. The bombs stopped the war and saved probably a million US soldiers.

You can't possibly compare that with Israel and Palestine.

Hamas, the de facto government of Gaza, attacked Israel, just as Japan attacked the USA. Why is one genocide and the other a just war?

Before we're through with them, the Japanese language will be spoken only in hell.

Traditionally, a war is between two military powers. I don't see a military in Palestine. But what I do see is a bunch of innocent people getting killed in a blood feud.

Does it suck that civilian Japanese got killed in those blasts? Sure. But it was necessary to stop the war. What has been "necessary" about the excess bloodshed in Palestine? And has it served any purpose? Doesn't seem like it.

War is awful. And there's absolutely zero wrong with calling out violence on both sides. I don't think anyone in the US celebrates the fact that people were killed in WWII, except for maybe the occasional redneck.

The Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades is the military arm of Hamas.

They look like fucking soldiers. Pull your cocksucking head out of your ass and you would know that.

You start a war and get your ass kicked, you can surrender or die. That was the choice the Japanese had to make and it's the choice Hamas will have to make. Cocksuckers wanna fight, cocksuckers gonna get killed.

Not as much as King Leopold II. Is there an Israeli Trotha?

Fair play, you are right, he did make his comments shortly after the Hamas attack.

Has he made any comments since on a ceasefire? He should be calling for one.

Before we're through with them, the Japanese language will be spoken only in hell.

Japan attacked a heavily defended US naval base, destroying warships and mostly killing military personnel. Something like 50 civilians got killed in the attack.
Hamas attacked a music festival and some collective farms, killing twice as many civilians as "security personnel" and taking hundreds of hostages.
There's the difference. The Japanese tried to take out the US military. Hamas targeted unarmed Jewish civilians.
No surprise then that some European Nazis called Hamas "Great fighters" and expressed their support for the attack.
"We're gonna judge you by the friends you keep"
