US condemns Roger Waters for history of antisemitism and offensive performance in Berlin.

TL;DR Summary
The US State Department has accused Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters of using antisemitic tropes and minimizing the Holocaust during a recent concert in Germany. Waters appeared on stage in a costume reminiscent of Nazi-era Germany, firing an imitation machine gun while dressed in a long black coat with a red armband. The US special envoy to combat antisemitism, Deborah Lipstadt, had previously condemned Waters for his despicable Holocaust distortion. Waters has also drawn criticism for his support of the BDS movement, which calls for boycotts and sanctions against Israel.
