Roger Water's epilogue "Russell Tribunal on Palestine New York session"


"The great Jewish-American writer, professor, human rights activist, Nobel Laureate, and holocaust survivor, Elie Wiesel, the author of 'Night', famously wrote:
"..TO REMAIN SILENT AND INDIFFERENT IS THE GREATEST SIN OF ALL."
How right he was, and is.
It is with great respect for Mr Wiesel and also for Bertrand Russell, the British philosopher and tireless advocate for human rights,
who set up the first Russell Tribunal back in 1966 to protest the Vietnam war, that I presume to address these remarks to you, today.

Love
Roger
