Faced with Éric Zemmour, Bernard Heni-Lévy tries to justify his disagreement with the French authorities regarding the confinement of the population. According to the philosopher, the decision was detrimental for the French economy and for the “freedom” of fellow citizens.
The two men tackle the issue of globalization in times of health crisis: the words are already heated. Bernard Henri-Lévy explains: “I have never terrorized the French!” Opposite, Éric Zemmour replied: “You have made them feel guilty. For 40 years you have made them feel guilty”.
“I don’t care about your camp”
Éric Zemmour then returned to the issue of immigration. The polemicist examines the case of the Lesbos camp (in Greece) which currently hosts nearly 20,000 people, all confined during the Covid-19 health crisis. The philosopher wonders about the lack of consideration of Eric Zemmour on the question, when Eric Zemmour rebels: “I don’t care about your camp”.

“There are 20,000 in a camp which is planned for 20,000 people” exclaims Bernard Henri-Lévy. “They just have to go home,” answers Éric Zemmour. Upset, the guest retorts: “These are my human brothers”.
“The German soldier too was my human brother, and even the SS is my human brother”. The philosopher exclaims, shocked: “you have just told an enormity, how can you say that?” “I am overwhelmed,” concludes Bernard Henri-Lévy.
