Francis A. Boyle on the case against Bush and potential war with
Iran.
George W. Bush could be indicted at the state level for murder with
malice aforethought, that according to internationally recognized
legal expert Francis A. Boyle of the School of Law at the University
of Illinois.
According to Boyle, President Bush deceived US soldiers about the reason
for sending them to Iraq. Thus, he argues, the 4100 US soldiers who
have died in Iraq thus far were murdered. Professor Boyle sees a
variety of cases that could be brought and he believes it would take
just one indictment and the whole house of cards would fall. -

Anthrax Coverup: A Government Insider Speaks Out
By Steve Watson http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/?q=node/24273
Is it possible that the anthrax attacks were launched from within our own government?
A former Bush one advisor thinks it is. Francis A. Boyle, an international law expert who worked under the first Bush Administration as a bioweapons advisor in the 1980s, has said that he is convinced the October 2001 anthrax attacks that killed five people were perpetrated and covered up by criminal elements of the U.S. government. The motive: to foment a police state by killing off and intimidating opposition to post-9/11 legislation such as the USA PATRIOT Act and the later Military Commissions Act..read

MY ALMA MATER IS A MORAL CESSPOOL (Neo-Cons, Fundies, Feddies and the University of
Chicago) Francis A. Boyle, Prof. of Law, University of Illinois
(Champaign-Urbana) pulls no punches in describing Rockefeller
family's U of C, the Leo Strauss spawning ground for the
'right-wing, racist, bigoted, reactionary and totalitarian
Federalist Society hired by the Bush administration to pursue a
pro-Israeli agenda [which includes] wars against it's Chosen Enemies
such as Iraq, Iran, Syria & the Palestinians?' Part One of the
series (The Background) includes a footnote: Prof. Michel Chossudovsky (U of Ottawa, economics) reads from the preface of his
book, The Globalization of Poverty and the New World Order where he
offers a personal anecdote about the U of Chicago's Milton Friedman
and the Chicago Boys who spearheaded the NWO's 'globalism' in Chile
(shortly after the NWO's Kissinger and crew crushed Salvador Allende,
September 11, 1973). In the series Prof. Boyle reveals the role of
the U of C's departments of law, politics, philosophy, economics,
sociology and religion in furthering the neo-liberal agenda.

THE SILENCE IS POISONOUS! : BIOWEAPONS - THE US
GOVERNMENTS NUREMBURG CRIME
A criminal biological weapons programme that is a threat to the
entire planet!
Review: ‘Biowarfare and Terrorism’ by Francis A Boyle
Before I even begin to review this ‘weapon of critical information’,
I urge you not only to buy it but when you’ve finished reading it
(it’s real short, so it shouldn’t overly tax our attention-deficit
culture), post it to your MP, Congressman, Senator, the UN, your
vicar/priest/imam/holy man/rabbi; give it to your neighbour,
teacher, workmate, brother, sister, mum and dad. In short, shout it
out from the rooftops; that the US government is an international
criminal of staggering proportions and the entire Bush
administration should be indicted as war criminals and every last
one locked up and the key thrown away...read

QUESTIONS NOT ASKED: · Torturing People's
Children · War Powers · Geneva Conventions
January 12, 2006 News Release
DOUG CASSEL
Cassel is director of Notre Dame Law School's Center for Civil and
Human Rights. He said today: "At a time when the commander in chief
asserts that his war powers give him carte blanche, it is critical
that the Supreme Court be composed of individuals committed to the
rule of law. Justices must be prepared to tell a president who
claims the power to torture in our name, that American laws and
values give a very simple answer -- and that answer is no."
On Dec. 1, 2005, Cassel debated John Yoo, who was mentioned by Sen.
Biden on Thursday morning and who has been one of the main legal
planners of the Bush administration's torture policies. Here is part
of their exchange: (more) |

IRAQ AND THE LAWS OF WAR: Francis A. Boyle
October 14, 2005
On 19 March 2003 President Bush Jr. commenced his criminal war
against Iraq by ordering a so-called decapitation strike against the
President of Iraq in violation of a 48-hour ultimatum he had given
publicly to the Iraqi President and his sons to leave the country.
This duplicitous behavior violated the customary international laws
of war set forth in the 1907 Hague Convention on the Opening of
Hostilities to which the United States is still a contracting party,
as evidenced by paragraphs 20, 21, 22, and 23 of U.S. Army Field
Manual 27-10 (1956). Furthermore, President Bush Jr.'s attempt to
assassinate the President of Iraq was an international crime in its
own right. Of course the Bush Jr. administration's war of aggression
against Iraq constituted a Crime against Peace as defined by the
Nuremberg Charter (1945), the Nuremberg Judgment (1946), and the
Nuremberg Principles (1950) as well as by paragraph 498 of U.S. Army
Field Manual 27-10 (1956). READ FULL ARTICLE

CENSURE IS NOT ENOUGH: Francis Boyle,
international law professor, University of Illinois,
Urbana-Champaign, Feb. 13, 2004 -- Author of the forthcoming book,
DESTROYING WORLD ORDER, Boyle says a desperate Karl Rove-guided
Bush administration may take the US to WAR AGAINST SYRIA if, by
September, they think they will lose the 2004 election. Boyle says
MoveOn.org's call for CENSURE of George W. Bush is "A
MEANINGLESS GESTURE, A COP-OUT, YOU MIGHT AS WELL GO FOR
IMPEACHMENT INSTEAD OF CENSURE." Other topics include:
Laurence Silberman and cover-up; Israeli involvement in Iraq.(transcript)
