For the image-impaired, a transcription: “Julian Assange is a national Australian treasure.

In this day and age, that's about the most effective counter psyop possible - only to be able to slow down our true intentions, slow down the awareness of the people, minimise the size of public protests and demonstrations by controlling the message by LEADING with either a compromised or (as in this case) a REDACTED message! Folks, this war requires more of us - more conscientiousness, more double checking, GO TO THE SOURCE, never stop at intermediaries, be and live your own truth - you are the media, you are the source, you are the catalyst for our shared awesome future!

February 2019 Roger Waters Julian Assange Appeal Letter… Roger Waters 2019 – Image Copyright RockAndPop.Cl Roger Waters, 9th February 2019 Switzerland Julian Assange is a national Australian treasure. He is a brilliant, brave, honest, humane, relevant, genuine, journalist and publisher of immense influence and significance on the world stage. He has shown himself to be an enormous power for good in a world that is sadly, with some notable exceptions, (Yes John Pilger, I mean you among others,) starved of his ilk. What Julian Assange is, as a publisher of real news, is a real hero. What he is not is a criminal. His initiative, WikiLeaks, helped expose to the world the hidden machinations of the real criminals in our society: the oligarchs, who in their insatiable quest for more and more wealth, would destroy the fragile planet we call home. Julian, like all truth seekers scares the sh*t out of them. The truth is their enemy, that is why they and their agents, the governments of the western world, are determined to destroy him. We, the citizens of the world, have an absolute duty to protect Julian Assange from their unwarranted and illegal attacks. I unreservedly support and applaud the demonstrations called by the Socialist Equality Party in Australia to demand that the Australian government takes immediate action to secure the freedom of their citizen, Julian Assange, from his near seven-year house imprisonment in the Ecuadorian embassy in London. At least until recently the Ecuadorian presidency was solid in its promise of asylum, but the new president of Ecuador is showing himself to be more susceptible to insidious US pressure. Julian’s situation is dire. BRING HIM HOME NOW!!! RESIST!!!!!!!!! DEMONSTRATE on MARCH 3rd in SYDNEY and MARCH 10th in MELBOURNE AROUND THE WORLD, RAISE YOUR VOICE EVERYWHERE DEMAND A SAFE HAVEN FOR JULIAN ASSANGE IN HIS HOME AUSTRALIA.

During a Barcelona concert on April 13, Roger Waters denounced the Syrian White Helmets as “a fake organization that exists only to create propaganda for jihadists and terrorists.” Warning that the groups’ unverified claims about chemical weapons attacks across insurgent-held territory were aimed at triggering Western military intervention, Waters cautioned his audience, “If we were to listen to the propaganda of the White Helmets and others, we would encourage our governments to start dropping bombs on people in Syria. This would be a mistake of monumental proportions for us as human beings.” Tuesday, April 17, 2018 - Pink Floyd Frontman Stops Concert To Explain False Flag Chemical Attack in Syria https://www.blacklistednews.com/article/65237/pink-floyd-frontman-stops-conc... During a solo concert this week in Barcelona, Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters took a moment to address the audience about the recent bombing of Syria. Waters said he was approached by someone before the concert who wanted to get onstage and speak on behalf of the White Helmets about the alleged chemical attacks in Douma. Instead of bringing the anonymous man onstage, Waters addressed the crowd on the issue himself, saying that he believes the White Helmets are a propaganda organization on a mission to justify Western intervention in the region. Waters said he believes that the person who wanted to make a statement was well-intentioned, but misled, and then offered his opinion to the audience.

American musicians who support boycotting Israel over the issue of Palestinian rights are terrified to speak out for fear their careers will be destroyed, according to Roger Waters. The Pink Floyd star – a prominent supporter of the boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) campaign against Israel since its inception 10 years ago – said the experience of seeing himself constantly labelled a Nazi and anti-Semite had scared people into silence.

Confronting recent criticism of his support for Palestinian rights and the BDS movement in two furious, personal, open letters, Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters rips the “crude pattern” of equating his and others’ criticisms of “the policies of this government of Israel” with anti-Semitism, viewing it as perhaps “a reaction to the fact that BDS is gaining ground, day by day and year by year, all over the world.” https://www.lexandermag.org/wsws-acclaimed-musician-roger-waters-calls-on-pe... http://206.223.147.217/leftypol/res/2812856.html 'Wish You Were Here': Roger Waters displays pro-Assange message at Berlin concert https://www.sott.net/article/387203-Wish-You-Were-Here-Roger-Waters-displays... ‘Julian’s situation is dire’: Roger Waters issues rallying cry for Assange asylum in Australia https://www.rt.com/news/451192-roger-waters-assange-rallies-australia/
