'Take Away The Jew Food': Pink Floyd Co-founder Roger Waters Accused of Anti-Semitic Behavior, Banned From Speaking at UPenn

A more recent alleged incident took place in March 2010 when Waters emailed his bandmates and suggested “bombing” their audience with confetti shaped like swastikas and Stars of David.

“Hey Guys, Who’s going to make pig? Would it work to go out on the stuka truss? I imagine it black with crossed hammers logo as 1980, but covered with symbols from Good by blue sky, crosses, stars of David (that’s king david not david gilmour) crescent and star, dollar signs, shell oil shell, etc and epithets,’my pig right or wrong’ ‘f--- you’ ‘no,f--- you’ ‘dirty k---’ ‘follow the money’ ‘Scum?’ etc. Roger,” the alleged email from March 25, 2010 read.

Waters’ former saxophonist also detailed an incident in the new documentary in which the Pink Floyd co-founder “lost his temper” and demanded that a waiter “take away the Jew food” during a dinner at a Lebanese restaurant.

“That’s it! That’s it! Where’s the meat? Where’s the meat? What’s with this? This is Jew food! What’s with the Jew food? Take away the Jew food!” Waters allegedly shouted, according to Norbert Statchel.

The Campaign Against Antisemitism claimed that they made the new documentary about Waters in an effort to expose the Pink Floyd star’s alleged history of antisemitism.

“Roger Waters has repeatedly used his enormous platform to bait Jews, but he always claims that he is not anti-Semitic,” Gideon Falter, the organization’s chief executive, said in a statement this week.

“My recent performance in Berlin has attracted bad faith attacks from those who want to smear and silence me because they disagree with my political views and moral principles,” he said at the time.

“Attempts to portray those elements as something else are disingenuous and politically motivated,” Waters continued. “The depiction of an unhinged fascist demagogue has been a feature of my shows since Pink Floyd’s The Wall in 1980.”
