The aggressive disruption of 'Peshmerga' film and attack on Bernard-Henri Levy
From Rudaw.net-Erbil
13-05-2017 - By Aline Le Bail-Kremer French philosopher Bernard-Henri Bernard-Henri Levy was in Serbia this week to showcase his acclaimed documentary film “Peshmerga” about the Kurds and their role in the fight against ISIS.
Just as Levi was about to address the audience gathered at the Belgrade Cultural Center on Wednesday, a woman from the audience ran past him and threw a pie in his face.
Levy continued to speak until a young man representing the New Young Communist League of Yugoslavia (Novi SKOJ) climbed onto the stage holding up a banner that read “Bernard Levy advocates imperialist murders.”
Levy responded by shouting in French, “Long live democracy!”
A brawl broke out at one point between a protester in the audience and Levy before security escorted the protesters out and the rest of the event had to be cancelled.
Levy is known for his criticism of 1990s Balkan wars and Serbian nationalist policies.
