Roger Waters accussed of anti-semitism

The Anti-Defamation League has accused Pink Floyd's Roger Waters of anti-Semitism.

The Guardian reports that the Anti-Defamation League is taking issue with a Jewish symbol being featured in a live video backdrop.

During the performance of 'Goodbye Blue Sky' as part of The Wall Live tour, the Star Of David is included alongside many other symbols ' Islam's crescent moon, dollar signs, Shell and Mercedes logos ' raining from aeroplanes like bombs.

The ADL's director, Abe Foxman, sees the inclusion of the Star Of David in close proximity to dollar signs as an anti-Semitic comment.

He said: 'The images he has chosen, when put together in the same sequence, cross a line into anti-Semitism. We wish Waters had chosen some other way to convey his political views without playing into and dredging up the worst age-old anti-Semitic stereotype about Jews and their supposed obsession with making money.'

Waters' partner, Laurie Durning, refuted the claim, telling the New York Post, 'This show is unapologetically anti-war and we would really like to put a quick end to any possible rumours of it being in any way negative towards any group of people. It absolutely does not call up any 'anti-Semitic stereotypes'.'
