When Bernard-Henri Levy speaks, world leaders listen, and what he is saying about Libya and the transformation of the Arab world, even Europe, will have an impact.

::::::::

Riz Kahn of Al Jazeera interviews Bernard-Henry Lévy, known simply by many in France as BHL, one of France's leading intellectuals, journalists and philosphers. He has just returned from the front lines in Libya, which is his journalistic modus operandi, to experience the realities on the ground before speaking and writing about them.

Submitters Bio:
I am a student of history, religion, exoteric and esoteric, the Humanities in general and a tempered advocate for the ultimate manifestation of peace, justice and the unity of humankind through self-realization and mutual respect, although I am not a pacifist, nor do I believe in peace at any price, which is no peace at all but only delays inevitable conflict. There are times when the world must act. Planetary consciousness is evolving, but there are many retrograde forces that would drag us back down.

I have also written one book, a combination of poetry, photography and essays entitled "Post Katrina Blues", my reflections on the Gulf Coast and New Orleans two years after Katrina struck. Go to the store at http://sanfranciscobaypress.com/ to purchase. And I also have a blog called Plutonian Mac.
