Boyle I t took three decades for the United States government-spanning and working assiduously over five different presidential administrations Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, Bush II, and Obama -to overthrow and reverse the Qaddafi Revolution in order to resubjugate Libya, seize control over its oil fields, and dismantle its Jamahiriya system. But the way hundreds of thousands stood up against Mubarak last winter was a historic event Egyptians will never forget. Instead, within 24 hours of the declaration they entered Benghazi and began shelling the city. All the states of North Africa have had African policies of a kind.

Want to Read saving…. The Gaddafi regime did respond to the adoption of UN Security Council Resolution by proclaiming a ceasefire and cessation of military operations on 18 March. The Libyan Revolution turned out to be permanent because its objects were imprecise, its architects had no form of law- bound, constitutional government in view as a final destination and no conception of a political role for themselves or anyone else after the Revolution. The Congresses embodied the idea of the people as the source of legitimacy and the agent of legitimation. Libyan society was divided and political division was in itself a hopeful development since it signified the end of the old political unanimity enjoined and maintained by the Jamahiriyya.

The socio-economic achievements of the regime can be attributed essentially to the distributive state: that is, the success of the hydrocarbons sector and of the mechanisms put in place early on to distribute petrodollars. The intervention tarnished every one of the principles the war party invoked to justify it.

Yet according to Human Rights Watch the security forces killed more than civilians between 17 and 20 February. The State of the Masses was in reality little more than a game to occupy and contain ordinary Libyans while the grown-up business of politics was conducted behind the scenes, the affair of a mysterious and unaccountable elite. Article 4 ruled out the introduction of an occupying force.

India Elections. In a country with a population smaller than that of the City of London, tens of thousands disappeared or were imprisoned. Francis Boyle provides a comprehensive history and critique of American foreign policy toward Libya from when the Reagan administration came to power in January of up to the NATO war on Libya that ultimately achieved the US goal of regime change, and beyond. This book is not only a classic case study of the conduct of US foreign policy as it relates to international law, but a damning indictment of the newly-contrived R2P doctrine as legal cover for Western intervention into thiird world countries. A Golf Guru! One concludes that the leaders of the countries involved truly believe they can get away with anything. Incarnating the nebulous Revolution, the imprecise interest of the nation and the inarticulate will of the people at the same time, Gaddafi clearly believed he needed to make the show interesting.

Biological warfare expert Prof. Francis Boyle appeared as a guest with Alex Jones on the Alex Jones Show, sharing his “smoking gun” findings about the coronavirus being engineered as a weapon that’s designed, “for efficient spreading in the human population,” according to one of the science papers he references. We confirmed Prof. Boyle’s findings by purchasing the full PDF of that paper and reviewing it in a detailed article we posted yesterday at this link. That paper describes the CoVid­19 novel coronavirus as possessing unique “gain­of­function” properties that make it the perfect bioweapon, while confirming these new properties were from artificial origins, not natural viral evolution. (In other words, it was engineered.) Below, we print the full transcript of the Francis Boyle / Alex Jones interview, along with the video of the full exchange below, via Brighteon.com. (The full show is also posted on Banned.video) If you hope to understand anything about what’s happening right now with the coronavirus pandemic, the global cover­up and how the taxpayer­funded NIH is behind these biological weapons, you need to hear and share this interview.

  • 1 the Genocide of the Palestinian People: an International Law and Human Rights Perspective While There Has Been Recent Criticis
    The Genocide of the Palestinian People: An International Law and Human Rights Perspective While there has been recent criticism of those taking the position that Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians, there is a long history of human rights scholarship and legal analysis that supports the assertion. Prominent scholars of the international law crime of genocide and human rights authorities take the position that Israel’s policies toward the Palestinian people could constitute a form of genocide. Those policies range from the 1948 mass killing and displacement of Palestinians to a half- century of military occupation and, correspondingly, the discriminatory legal regime governing Palestinians, repeated military assaults on Gaza, and official Israeli statements expressly favoring the elimination of Palestinians. Genocide is a term that has both sociological and legal meaning. The term genocide was coined in 1944 by a Jewish Polish legal scholar, Raphael Lemkin. For Lemkin, “the term does not necessarily signify mass killings.” He explained: More often [genocide] refers to a coordinated plan aimed at destruction of the essential foundations of the life of national groups so that these groups wither and die like plants that have suffered a blight. The end may be accomplished by the forced disintegration of political and social institutions, of the culture of the people, of their language, their national feelings and their religion. It may be accomplished by wiping out all basis of personal security, liberty, health and dignity. When these means fail the machine gun can always be utilized as a last resort. Genocide is directed against a national group as an entity and the attack on individuals is only secondary to the annihilation of the national group to which they belong.1 Since Lemkin’s first invocation of the term, it has gained political, social, and legal meaning.

What follows is to the best of my immediate recollection: The Big Lie Growing up in the United States during the late 1950s and early 1960s while strongly supporting the just struggle of African Americans for civil rights, I was brainwashed at school as well as by the mainstream news media and popular culture to be just as pro-Israel as everyone else in America. Then came the 1967 Middle East War. At that time, my assessment of the situation was that Israel had attacked these Arab countries first, stolen their lands, and then driven out their respective peoples from their homes.

  • The Campaign for Israeli Divestment and the Charge of Anti-Semitism by Joseph Kay 10 April 2003 World Socialist Web Site
    The following is mirrored from its source at: http://www.wsws.org/articles/2003/apr2003/div-a10.shtml with additional links added. The campaign for Israeli divestment and the charge of anti-Semitism By Joseph Kay 10 April 2003 World Socialist Web Site The campaign against "anti-Semitism" on campus Anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism The historical origins of Zionism In response to an escalation of Israeli aggression over the past year, a growing movement has emerged on American campuses opposing the oppression of the Palestinian population. Student groups have held numerous protests at universities throughout the country, and most recently a movement has gained force that calls for the divestment of university assets from Israeli corporations and US firms doing business with Israel. These groups have faced a wave of denunciations, including baseless accusations of anti-Semitism and support for terrorism. University officials have joined hands with Zionist organizations and representatives of both political parties in slandering students and faculty who have joined the movement. The specter of anti-Semitism is raised as part of an effort to de-legitimize any opposition to the policies of the Israeli government and its principal supporter, the United States. The role of university administrations in bolstering the charge of anti-Semitism against supporters of divestment is particularly noteworthy. It is an anti-democratic attempt to intimidate and silence the political views of a section of the student body. The ferocity of the denunciations indicates in its own way the validity of the criticisms: because the policies of the Israeli state cannot be seriously defended through political argument, its supporters attempt to stifle any discussion.

  • Israel, Palestine and the Icc
    ISRAEL, PALESTINE AND THE ICC ISRAEL, PALESTINE AND THE ICC Daniel Benoliel † & Ronen Perry †† This Article provides a critical assessment of theoretical and practical arguments for judicial state recognition by the International Criminal Court (ICC). It does so both generally and with regard to a highly pertinent contemporary example, namely a judge-made Palestinian state. In the wake of the Israel–Gaza 2008-09 armed conflict and the recently commenced process in the ICC, the Court will soon face a major challenge – one that holds the potential to define its degree of judicial independence and overall legitimacy. It may need to decide whether a Palestinian state exists, for the purposes of the Court itself, and perhaps in general. Apart from the possibility that such a declaration may constitute a controversial intervention in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, it would also set a precedent within public international law concerning judicial state recognition. The Rome Statute of 1998 establishing the ICC created a state-based system, so that the existence of a Palestinian state is a precondition for the present proceedings to continue. Moreover, although the ICC potentially bears the authority to investigate crimes that fall under its subject-matter jurisdiction, regardless of where they were committed, the question remains as to whether and to what extent it has jurisdiction over non-member states, in this case Israel. 1 ISRAEL, PALESTINE AND THE ICC Table of Contents Introduction ............................................................................................................

  • Is the Wuhan Coronavirus a Form of Biowarfare?: a Special Interview with Francis Boyle By: Dr
    Is the Wuhan Coronavirus a Form of Biowarfare?: A Special Interview With Francis Boyle By: Dr. Joseph Mercola Dr. Joseph Mercola: Welcome, everyone. This is Dr. Mercola helping you take control of your health and today we are joined by Francis Boyle who really has quite the pedigree. He had his undergraduate training at the University of Chicago and got his JD, lawyer degree, from Harvard and also a PhD in Political Science. He's been quite active in the protection environment from the US government in their creative strategies for bio weapons, and specifically we're talking about coronavirus today. So welcome and thank you for joining us today. Dr. Francis Boyle: Well, thank you very much for having me on, Dr. Mercola, and my best to your viewing audience. Dr. Joseph Mercola: All right, so the coronavirus is a virus that seems to have come from Wuhan, and if you're like me, most of the people in the US have probably never heard of Wuhan before, but it's a pretty big city. It's bigger than New York City, there's 11 million people in this city. So obviously China is a large country with over a billion people, but it's a still a large metropolis, it's not some rural, urban farming community. So it's affected over 50,000 people in China as we're recording this in February, February 14th, so I'm sure it's going to be more by the time this podcast airs, and I'm wondering if you could provide us with your speculations as to how this apparently engineered virus was produced and how it came to be out of Wuhan, because it wasn't due to [Batsu 00:01:42], we know that's for sure.

    Is Bosnia the end of the road for the UN? (expanded analysis) Prof. Francis Boyle Prof. Francis Boyle is professor of international law at the University of Illinois College of Law, General Agent for the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina with Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Powers before the International Court of Justice (1993-1994) At the time of the 1994 Washington Agreements, the Pentagon said that what was really going on here was the slow motion carve-up of Bosnia-Herzegovina that would take about 15 years. Time is up. Obituary for the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (1992-1995) Pursuant to the Dayton Accords, on 15 December 1995 the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina was carved up in Paris by the United Nations, the European Union Member States, the United States, and the many other states in attendance, despite the United Nations Charter, the Nuremberg Principles, the Genocide Convention, the Four Geneva Conventions and their two Additional Protocols, the Racial Discrimination Convention, and the Apartheid Convention, inter alia, as well as two overwhelmingly favorable World Court Orders this author won for the Republic on 8 April 1993 and 13 September 1993. This second World Court Order expressly prohibited such a partition of Bosnia by the vote of 13 to 2. Bosnia was sacrificed on the altar of Great Power politics to the Machiavellian god of expedience. In 1938 the Great Powers of Europe did the exact same thing to Czechoslovakia at Munich. The partition of that nation state did not bring peace to Europe then. Partition of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina will not bring peace to Europe now.

    FROM THE COURT RECORDS The Yaron Case Introductory Note ......................................................................................................... 254 Memorandum .................................................................................................................257 Exhibit A: Declaration of Jordan A. Paust ........................................................ 277 Exhibit B: Declaration of Frank C. Newman .................................................... 287 INTRODUCTORY NOTE * In August 1982, special U.S. envoy Philip Habib negotiated the withdrawal of Palestinian forces from Beirut. According to that agreement the United States Government guaranteed the safety of the remaining Palestinian civilians and obtained Israel's assurance that its armed forces would not enter West Beirut. Israel, breaking its own pledge, occupied West Beirut and surrounded the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps on September 15, 1982. On September 16, Brigadier General Amos Yaron, acting under orders from the Israeli Ministry of Defence, allowed Phalangist troops to enter the refugee camps even though the same troops had previously engaged in massacres of Palestinians living in Lebanon. The killing at the refugee camps went on for three days. During night-time Phalangist operations, Yaron's troops fired illumination rounds so the Phalangists could continue their atrocities. Israeli troops, under the command of Yaron, blocked the exits of the camps to prevent the refugees from escaping and supplied the Phalangists with at least one bulldozer, which was used to cover bodies with rubble. According to the official Israeli Commission of Inquiry into the massacre (the so-called Kahan Commission), Yaron, who was present on the roof of the IDF forward command post overlooking the Shatila camp on the evening of September 16, knew then that women and children were being killed by Phalangist militiamen who had entered the camps by prior arrangement with the Israeli military.

    Covid-19 Is an Offensive Biological Warfare Weapon That Leaked Out of China’s Wuhan BSL4 Lab* By Professor Francis A. Boyle Before The International Conference on “Eradication of Biological and Chemical Weapons” Maharashtra Institute of Technology World Peace University (MIT-PUNE) Pune, India June 26, 2020 *© 2020 by Francis A. Boyle. All rights reserved. Namaste! Thank you very much for having me here today to speak to this outstanding group of peacemakers, to which cause I have devoted the last five decades of my life. I drafted the United States domestic implementing legislation for the Biological Weapons Convention known as the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act (BWATA) of 1989 that was approved unanimously by both Houses of the United States Congress and signed into law by President George Bush Senior. My BWATA was instigated by the fact that the Reagan administration and its Neoconservatives had gotten heavily involved into the use of DNA genetic engineering techniques to research, develop, and test illegal biological warfare weapons. I set out to stop this with the assistance of my friends and colleagues at the Council for Responsible Genetics at that time – some of the top life scientists in the world from Harvard, MIT, Sloan-Kettering, etc. They were founded in 1983 and soon thereafter asked me to join with them in order to work against biological weapons. Now so far I have appeared live on Indian television twice in order to discuss and analyze the coronavirus at the very beginning of this pandemic. Once with Indian CNN, and it was a very good session.
