What about TNR friend, Bernard-Henri Lévy. He writes (<--link) on Huffington Post:

My journal, La Règle du jeu, is working in support of Roman Polanski and mobilizing writers and artists through the following petition: ... Seventy-six years old, a survivor of Nazism and of Stalinist persecutions in Poland, Roman Polanski risks spending the rest of his life in jail for deeds which would be beyond the statute-of-limitations in Europe. We ask the Swiss courts to free him immediately and not to turn this ingenious filmmaker into a martyr of a politico-legal imbroglio that is unworthy of two democracies like Switzerland and the United States. Good sense, as well as honor, require it. Bernard-Henri Lévy Salman Rushdie Milan Kundera Pascal Bruckner Neil Jordan Isabelle Adjani Arielle Dombasle Isabelle Huppert William Shawcross Yamina Benguigui Mike Nichols Danièle Thompson Diane von Furstenberg Claude Lanzmann Paul Auster
