I censored the slurs but you can probably guess what they are.
Guitar icon Eric Clapton releases new song accompanied by #Gaza imagery
Titled Voice of a Child, video features images of extensive destruction in Gaza, the life of palestinian children images from and pro-Palestinian/Anti-Wad protests around the world.
It's really sad that YouTube have decided to age restrict the video even though it doesn't have anything violent or graphic to disturb the younger generation, and much less than what they see on TV shows, movies and Video games

Blackmore on Hendrix, Beck, Page, Clapton, Townshend and more
On January 13, 1973 Eric Clapton made his stage comeback after 2 yrs of inactivity at the Rainbow Theatre, London (broken only by a performance at the Concert for Bangladesh in August 1971) with Pete Townsend, Ronnie Wood, Stevie Winwood, Rebop, Jim Capaldi, Rick Grech and more.
#EricClapton stands up for #Gaza and #Palestinians. Watch the institutional slander, misquotes, out of context cherry-picked statements by him in regard to it, and more, begin in the #MSM. Just like they've historically done to #RogerWaters.
