<p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="margin-left:1.5in;text-align:center;line-height:200%">
<u>DECLARATION OF FRANCIS A. BOYLE<o:p></o:p></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%"> Pursuant to 28 USC 1746, Francis A. Boyle declares under penalty of perjury:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">1. I am a Professor of Law at the University of Illinois College of Law in Champaign, Illinois. I hold a Doctor of Law Magna Cum Laude from Harvard Law School and an A.M. and Ph.D. in Political
Science from the Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, Department of Government, where I specialized in International Political Science and its relationship to International Law. I graduated from the same Harvard Ph.D. Program that produced Henry
Kissinger, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Samuel Huntington et al. before me. My resume is attached to this Declaration and is hereby incorporated by reference.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">2. I am an expert in International Law and Foreign Policy. I have studied, read, taught, and written extensively in these areas, and have been qualified as an expert witness in several courts
across the country and abroad. I also currently teach a course on <i>The Constitutional Law of U.S. Foreign Affairs</i>. Previously, I taught the course here on
<i>Criminal Law</i> for several years.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">3. I have been qualified as an Expert and testified in U.S. military court-martial proceedings involving (1) U.S.M.C. Corporal Jeff Paterson (1990); (2) U.S. Army Captain Doctor Yolanda Huet-Vaugn
(1991); (3) U.S. Army Captain Lawrence Rockwood (1995); (4) U.S. Army Reserve Staff Sergeant Camilo Mejia (2003); and (5) U.S. Army First Lieutenant Ehren Watada (2006).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">4. In 1983 the United States Military Academy at West Point invited me to lecture and debate before their 21<sup>st</sup> Senior Conference on
<b>Nuclear Deterrence</b> on the subject of <i>Nuclear Deterrence and International Law</i>. The audience consisted of about 200 high-level officials from the United States government in charge of U.S. nuclear weapons policies, both military and civilian.
Sitting in the audience for my entire presentation was the 3-Star General in charge of War Operations at the Pentagon.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">5. Starting in October of 2001, the United States war against Afghanistan has been and still is an illegal war of aggression that violates the United Nations Charter (1945), the Nuremberg Charter
(1945), the Nuremberg Judgment (1946), and the Nuremberg Principles (1950). Therefore the U.S. war against Afghanistan constitutes a Nuremberg Crime against Peace against the State of Afghanistan, its Taliban Government, Taliban government officials, Taliban
combatants, and the citizens of Afghanistan. The reasons for these conclusions are set forth in two scholarly essays I have published:
<i>George Bush, Jr., September 11 and the Rule of Law</i>, in my book <b>The Criminality of Nuclear Deterrence<i>
</i></b>16-39 (Clarity Press: 2002); and <i>No War Against Afghanistan!</i>, in my book
<b>Tackling America’s Toughest Questions</b> 24-38 (Clarity Press: 2009). I have attached copies of these essays to this Declaration and hereby incorporate them by reference.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">6. In addition, I also wish to draw to the Court’s attention the memoirs by Richard A. Clark, Chairman of the Counter-terrorism Security Group at the White House under President George Bush Jr.
on September 11, 2001, <b>Against All Enemies<i> </i></b>(2004), at page 24: <b>
“When later in the discussion [on the evening of Sept. 11, with Bush and his crisis advisors], Secretary Rumsfeld noted that international law allowed the use of force only to prevent future attacks and not for retribution, Bush nearly bit his head off. ‘No,’
the President yelled in the narrow conference room, ‘I don’t care what the international lawyers say, we are going to kick some ass.’”
</b>(Emphasis added.)<i><br>
</i>7. The Nuremberg Crime Against Peace has been expressly incorporated into Department of the Army Field Manual 27-10,
<b>The Law of Land Warfare</b> (1956), which in relevant part provides as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="margin-left:1.5in;text-align:center"><b>Section II. CRIMES UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in"><b> 498. Crimes Under International Law<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:2.0in;text-indent:.5in">Any person, whether a member of the armed forces or a civilian, who commits an act which constitutes a crime under international law is responsible therefor and liable to punishment. Such offenses
in connection with war comprise:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">8. U.S. Army Field Manual 27-10 (1956) was drafted for the United States Army by then Major Richard R. Baxter. Professor Baxter later taught me his course on
<i>The Laws of War</i> at Harvard Law School. I was the top student in his class and Professor Baxter recommended me for my current position as a law professor. Professor Baxter was later elected a Judge on the International Court of Justice, the so-called
World Court of the United Nations System. While he was alive, Professor Baxter was generally considered to be the world’s leading expert on the Laws of War.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">9. Therefore, I am uniquely qualified to testify concerning the relevance of the Laws of War to these proceedings. The Defendants have asked me to testify. I have agreed to testify.
I hereby respectfully request this Honorable Court to permit me to testify at this trial.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">10. Since the terrible terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the United Government and its Armed Forces and the Central Intelligence Agency have operated in accordance with the Doctrine
of the Global Battlefield. Pursuant thereto, the United States Government, United States Armed Forces as well as the Central Intelligence Agency will target and have targeted with deadly force including and especially by means of drones supposed combatants
anywhere in the world:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%"> And even if the supposed combatants are far from any field of battle.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%"> And even if the supposed combatants are sleeping in their beds at home at night with their wives and their children far from any field of battle.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%"> And even if the supposed combatants are citizens of the United States of America.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">11. These and other U.S. targeting doctrines for the declared U.S. Global Battlefield Doctrine by means of drones and otherwise constitute Crimes against Peace, Crimes against Humanity, and
War Crimes.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">12. Wherefore I most respectfully request this Honorable Court to permit me to testify in these proceedings.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.5in;line-height:200%">13. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. I am prepared to testify under oath and answer questions on these and related matters.<o:p></o:p></p>

Pro-Drone Lawyer Up for Judgeship while Drone Protesters Face Prison </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

While 29 of President Obama's judicial nominees were voted out of committee last week, one is coming under criticism from both the left and right. <i>Legal Times</i> <a href="http://legaltimes.typepad.com/blt/2014/01/senate-judiciary-committee-approves-29-judicial-nominees.html" target="_blank">reports</a> that Sen.
Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) "voiced numerous concerns about [David] Barron for the First Circuit, saying he has advocated for positions '<a href="http://www.grassley.senate.gov/news/Article.cfm?customel_dataPageID_1502=48028" target="_blank">far outside the mainstream</a>.'
Barron, Grassley said, quoting from a <i>New York Times</i> article, participated in crafting the Justice Department legal memo authorizing the use of drones to kill U.S. citizens in other countries. The committee voted 10-8 to approve Barron's nomination."<br>
<br>
Just after his November nomination, the <i>New York Times</i> <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/25/us/former-justice-department-official-is-nominated-to-appeals-court.html" target="_blank">noted</a> that Barron "signed <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/10/world/middleeast/anwar-al-awlaki-a-us-citizen-in-americas-cross-hairs.html" target="_blank">two
secret memorandums</a> declaring that it would be lawful for the United States to <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/09/world/middleeast/secret-us-memo-made-legal-case-to-kill-a-citizen.html" target="_blank">kill Anwar al-Awlaki, a United States citizen
suspected of plotting terrorist attacks</a>, if it were not feasible to capture him."</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Boyle is a professor at the University of Illinois College of Law and author of <i>Tackling America’s Toughest Questions</i>. He <a href="http://www.opednews.com/articles/Obama-Nominates-War-Crimi-by-Sherwood-Ross-Attack_ENABLER_Justice_Obama-War-Criminal-140122-203.html" target="_blank">said
today</a>: "Barron co-authored the infamous Justice department opinion authorizing Obama's murder of U.S. citizens. This is a total disgrace. If approved, we will have a murderer and a war criminal sitting on the U.S. First Circuit. ... So here Barron and
[his coauthor in the legal opinion Martin] Lederman deliberately and maliciously write a get-out-of-jail-free card for Obama so that he can murder U.S. citizens, which he does. ... Barron is neither fit nor qualified to serve as a Judge on the First Circuit
-- a post which would make him a prime candidate for a U.S. Supreme Court seat. ... This is exactly how Bush paid back Jay Bybee [author of legal memos on torture] when he put him on the Ninth Circuit. Obama is worse than Bush in that Obama is a lawyer and
knows better." </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Meanwhile, the trial of the "Hancock 17" peace activists is taking place. The defendants and their allies <a href="http://warisacrime.org/content/hancock-17-drone-war-crimes-resisters-trial-continues-week" target="_blank">released
a statement</a>: "After awaiting trial for 15 months, the defense case of the Hancock 17 will begin at 5 p.m., Thursday, Jan. 23, continuing on Friday, Jan. 24, in De Witt Town Court, near Syracuse. On Oct. 25, 2012, 17 people were arrested for symbolically
blocking the three gates at Hancock National Air Guard Base which is a site where MQ 9 Reaper drones are piloted over Afghanistan. ... They stood in front of the gates with banners and and signs calling for an end to drone warfare and read a citizen's <a href="http://vcnv.org/war-crimes-indictment-served-at-hancock-air-force-base" target="_blank">War
Crimes Indictment</a> to the base personnel at the gates. They called for an end of attacks on civilians that are illegal under international war. <br>
<br>
"After almost three hours outside the gates, the protesters were arrested and arraigned on charges of Trespass and Disorderly Conduct. ... The protesters were also issued Orders of Protection for Col. Earl Evans which require them to stay away from the base.
Violating the Order carries potential misdemeanor or even felony charges. ...<br>
<br>
"The defendants' case is supported by former Attorney General Ramsey Clark, Law professor Francis Boyle, Urbana Champagne, University of Illinois, expert on drones and international law."<br>

end of last summer, I objected in the strongest terms possibly imaginable and repeatedly with ample documentation of all the dirty work he had done for Mrs Clinton when she was Secretary of State and he was her Lawyer on the Law School email list going out
to all law faculty members. The COL had the entire 2015-2016 academic year to bring him in here to lecture. Instead, the COL are bringing him in here on October 28, 2016, ten days before the Presidential Election, to make the best case he can to get his fellow
Yale Law Mafia Boss Mrs Clinton elected President. And it has already been reported that he is a high level operative in the Clinton Presidential Campaign. We cannot let this Travesty of Justice pass!<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
