The White Helmets organization planned to involve co-founder of the rock band Pink Floyd Roger Waters into their activities, RIA Novosti informs. 

He passed messages sent by the people associated with the White Helmets to the Grayzone Project. Two years ago Roger Waters was invited at the dinner by Saudi-British billionaire Hani Farci. Rock-musician was offered to join the mission of the organization in order to help voices of the Syrian civil heroes sound louder. According to Waters, a photographer from France asked the musician to allow him to the stage before a concert in Spain. He was going to address Syrian children and shared that he was linked to a very powerful Syrian network. 

The musician did not react on any of these proposals. For the last several years the White Helmets were supported by several Western celebrities, such as George Clooney, Ban Affleck, Justin Timberlake. Waters is sure that people should stop collaboration with the White Helmets for they are good only at first sight, and if you look closer, they are trying to persuade the West to unsanctioned bombing of Syria. This organization has many times spread fake information about situation in Syria. In particular, it recorded a video about chemical attack allegedly conducted by the Syrian army in Eastern Guta. 

After appearance of these data, without waiting for an official investigation, the Organization for the Prohibition of the Chemical Weapons, US and their allies made several missile strikes on Syria.  

As the Russkiy Mir Foundation reported earlier, Russian journalists managed to find a boy who was recorded as a victim of chemical attack. He said that he came to the hospital following the call from the streets. At this, he felt good. Independent British and American journalists confirmed too that there was not any chemical attack in Duma.
