CNN - Pink Floyd's co-founder accuses Biden of 'huge crime' in Ukraine. Hear why

The genius with the accent in that interview; I'd link to another video, but Lichess won't let me.
It's possible to search YouTube to see Waters addressing the U.N. where he condemns both sides in the strongest possible terms, and urges USA and everyone to cease this mutual genocide.
wtf is
> mutual genocide
???

I admire what he did musically though I am quite puzzled by his thought process lately.

"mutual genocide" is an apologetic term for the invasion and spits on the graves of the Ukrainian civilians that get killed. w/o civilian casualties its not a genocide imho.

its ok to feel sorry for the russian soldiers (some got recruited out of jail, some were forced entirely). you shouldnt overlook their suffering and death or argue that they deserve it as that would be inhumane. totally understand that. still that term genocide is wrong being used for Russian soldiers.

>Genocide is the intentional destruction of a people in whole or in part. In 1948, the United Nations Genocide Convention defined genocide as any of five "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group." These five acts were: killing members of the group, causing them serious bodily or mental harm, imposing living conditions intended to destroy the group, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children out of the group. Victims are targeted because of their real or perceived membership of a group, not randomly...

That last part is key here: Russian invaders arent targeted because they are Russians, but because they are invaders murdering civilians.
This guy displayed antisemitism at a concert in Germany. Amongst other disgusting things, he wore SS clothing...

He is accused officially AFAIK.

When I read this name: just FO!
he's been wearing that uniform for decades as part of the act. and now it's suddenly called "antisemitism". as the US gradually loses this proxy war, just as when it lost the war in Afghanistan, it will flail about with propaganda, which many believe, until facts on the ground expose all the many lies. but many still believe the propaganda deluge from the second Iraq War, and think Saddam had wmd's and was behind 911. no matter how many times the US government lies to you about war, you still believe the next lie. right now it looks like even some of the neocons in the US administration are having second thoughts. see this talk by Fiona Hill, ardent Russiagater and proponent of every war the US has been engaged in in this century, having second thoughts:

the next target is China, the US' primary economic competitor in the world. it's not clear what losing the proxy war in Ukraine will have on that pivot in US foreign policy.
