Roger Waters has urged followers on social media not to vote for Kamala Harris or Donald Trump in the upcoming US election, due to their respective stances on the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict.Waters has frequently spoken on the issue since last October when over a thousand Israelis were killed by Hamas forces at a music festival.Following the attack, the Israeli cabinet formally declared war against Hamas, leading to the most significant escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in several decades and triggering unprecedented and seemingly unrelenting violence.According to a report by Reuters, Palestinian health authorities have said Israel’s ground and air campaign in Gaza has killed more than 41,500 people.

The attacks by Hamas on October 7, 2023 killed over 1,200 people.Waters took to Twitter/X today, ahead of the election next Tuesday (November 5), to tell his followers not to vote for either party as “they both support murdering children”.
