Anybody read "Who Killed Daniel Pearl?" by Bernard Henri-Levy?

[Wetzelbill]

I'm about halfway done and I have to say it is a remarkable, enthralling read so far. Just curious about any of your thoughts on the book and the writer. He's has a wonderful style that brings all sorts of questions and theories into your thoughts. He's always asking questions. I find it intriguing that an author makes you think for yourself so much. I like it actually.

Other than that, do any of you have any recommendations on the same topics (Pakistan, ISE, Pearl, Omar Sheikh) or for anything Levy has written before?

1. Pipes with a French accent?

2. 2 authors for Pakistan/ColdWar

Christopher Hitchens has written voluminously on the subject. Now I'm going to get flamed.

Edward Said is another good one.

Looks to be a good read ,but scary

4. Yeah, that's where I saw him too.

5. He is one the most attractive, debonnaire, sophisticated men I have

ever seen (happily married to an ultra-beautiful woman, too).
I haven't read the book. I have not been reading much lately (read Al Franken, Michael Moore, Greg Palast... the NY Review of Books, the New Yorker, The Week, Newsweek... NOT TIME LEFT.
Could you discuss the book a little more, please?

I saw him also on Moyer's show. WOW! If the book is as interesting as he is it will be enthralling.
