Post Roger Waters Paints Graffitt in Israel..Is it an Offence?

Roger Waters while on tour in Israel had painted this graffiti on a wall.


He sprayed "We Don't Need No Thought Control" on it.The civic body has charged a criminal offence against for damage to property.


My question is : Is Roger Waters guilty of these charges?? Is this act a criminal offence compared to what the civil servants and the police commit??

I say no ; He's free to express his views and He did it peacefully with best intentions.

Do you know what this wall is, or why it is there, TC?

Can we talk about how Roger is sponsoring an entire Senegalese village?

Re: Roger Waters Paints Graffitt in Israel..Is it an Offence?

A very strange article which tells what David has said about Roger's graffitti in Israel. I'm working in a tabloid newspaper myself, but I really think this story is BS. I can't imagine David has said something like that. It's probably someone who has come up with a joke that someone has taken seriously.

I think it's very nice done by Roger and it shows that the Floyd guys really does something that makes a difference when it comes to philantrophy. If Pink Floyd is going to have another reunion I think it's for donate money to projects like that.

I hate it how people want Isarel to tear down thair wall. The Berlin wall was designed to keep people from leaving, Israel's wall is designed to keep the people that want to kill them out.

To discuss pro and cons of the israeli wall I think The Dark Side fits better. Maybe in this thread.
