Roger Waters, co-founder of the British Rock band Pink Floyd, held a concert in Barcelona, Spain, on April 13, 2018. During the event he surprised his audience with a political statement about the private organization; the so called “White Helmets”, also called “Syrian Civil Defense”. The reason for this was an e-mail that he received the evening before the concert from a French reporter and “White Helmets” sympathizer. The reporter wanted the musician to provide a platform at the concert to make propaganda for the “White Helmets”. Instead of accepting the reporter’s offer, Waters passed on his opinion of the “White Helmets” during the concert as follows: “The White Helmets are a fake organization that exist only to create propaganda for the jihadists (= violent “Islamic fanatics”) terrorists […] if we were to listen to... the propaganda of the “White Helmets” and others then we would be encouraged to encourage our governments to go and start dropping bombs on people in Syria. This would be a mistake of monumental proportions in terms of us as human beings!” It was telling that Waters earned loud cheering from the audience as he is against a war that is contrary to international law. As a reminder: On April 08, 2018 – only five days before the concert – all major media reported on a suspected chemical weapons attack on the Syrian rebel stronghold of Duma. On April 08, the speaker of the US state department already assigned blame for the chemical weapons attack on the “Assad regime and its supporters” . Only hours after the apparent chemical weapon attack US strikes against Syria “are not excluded” – without any proof and any investigation! The „White Helmets“ were the only source of information, on which an attack against the Syrian government could be justified with. Only one day after the Roger Waters concert, namely during the night of April 14, 2018 the USA together with France and Great Britain attacked several targets in Damascus and surrounding areas. With cruise missiles the Allies fired, out of the Mediterranean Sea, at parts of the infrastructure for production of chemical weapons in Homs, Aleppo and Damascus according to their own statements. The timing is such that it is as if the concert was supposed to be used for propaganda purposes in favor of the “White Helmets” and misconstrued as justification for attacks in Syria? Roger Waters addressed to his audience in Barcelona shows a way to counteract war propaganda of the Western governments and media: “What we should do is be persuading our governments not to drop bombs on people. And certainly not until we have done all the research that is necessary so that we have a clear idea of what is really going on. Because we live in a world where propaganda seems to be more important than the reality of what is really going on.”
