Roger Waters is a world class POS.
Via MEMRI:
Former Pink Floyd front man and bassist Roger Waters, a prominent anti-Israel activist, took to Facebook over the weekend to criticize Scarlett Johansson – with whom he admitted he “was somewhat smitten” – for her choice to represent an Israeli company over the international aid group Oxfam.
Scarlett Johansson announced her resignation last week from her role as Oxfam ambassador after the aid organization suggested that it was reconsidering her position due to her signing on as a spokeswoman for SodaStream, an Israeli company that has a factory in a Jewish settlement in the West Bank (Judea and Samaria).
Johansson’s spokesman said the 29-year-old actress had “a fundamental difference of opinion” with Oxfam as a result of the group’s opposition to all trade from Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
SodaStream which makes do-it-yourself carbonated drink kits and has a factory in Ma’ale Adumim, a Jewish community a 15-minute drive from Jerusalem, has been a target for the pro-Palestinian Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Campaign (BDS) and groups like CODEPINK, even though the company employs 900 Palestinians who are widely reported to receive respectable pay and benefits.
