Roger Waters speculated wildly about the unfounded possibility that Hamas' Oct. 7 attack on Israel might have been a 'false flag.'
During the conversation, Waters couched his discussions of the attack — during which Hamas militants killed more than 1,4000 people,— in heavy speculation. For instance, he said his initial reaction to Oct. 7 was, “let’s wait and see what happened,” and that his second was: “How the hell did the Israelis not know this was going to happen? And I’m still a little it down that rabbit hole.”
Israeli officials have promised to launch a full investigation into how the Oct. 7 attack was carried out. As it stands, reports suggest the attack was almost certainly not a false flag but the result of massive Israeli intelligence failures combined with a grave miscalculation of Hamas’ capabilities and intentions.
Waters then proceeded to do some classic edging and hedging. He claimed his message has always been, “Do you subscribe to the idea of equal human rights or not? Cause as soon as you don’t, youa Nazi.” Not missing a beat, he quickly backtracked with an exaggerated gasp, “And I know people — ‘You can’t say Nazi!’ … Anybody who is supremacist. Whatever you want to call it.
