Introducing the interview episode, Piers Morgan described Waters as In the announcement of the scandalous interview, Piers Morgan called Roger Waters “the world’s dumbest rock star” and “complete and utter moron”. During the interview, Waters repeated anti-Israel stereotypes, demonstrating historical ignorance and dismissing any other viewpoints as baseless lies.

Throughout the interview, Waters repeatedly claimed that a genocide of the indigenous people is happening in Palestine, and that Jews have no historical connection to the territory. He advised Israelis to return to Eastern Europe, the United States, or other places from where they came.

Waters refused to condemn the terrorist attack by HAMAS, stating that the people fighting for the liberation of Palestine have a legitimate and moral right to resist the oppressor. At the same time, he claimed that there is no evidence that terrorists raped Israeli women on October 7, calling those who claim otherwise “dirty, disgusting liars”.

When Piers Morgan reminded him of Kfir Bibas, who was 9 months old at the time of his abduction and has not been returned yet, Waters called it fiction and nonsense.

In response to accusations of anti-Semitism, particularly from former Pink Floyd members and musicians who worked with the band, Waters reacted by laughing. At one point, he began talking aloud to himself, giving the impression of being inadequate.
