“Sadly @rogerwaters you are antisemitic to your rotten core,” Samson tweets “Also a Putin apologist and a lying, thieving, hypocritical, tax-avoiding, lip-synching, misogynistic, sick-with-envy, megalomaniac. Enough of your nonsense.”
Soon after, Gilmour tweeted, shortly thereafter. “Every word demonstrably true.”
