Please join us:
Harold Hongju Koh, Hillary Clinton's former legal advisor at the State Department  has been invited as an 'endowed speaker' at the U.I. College of Law, twelve days prior to the November election, in violation of Illinois statutes. Koh, currently a Yale Law School professor and former Dean, he provided legal advice for Hillary during the 2009 coup in Honduras, the 2011 US/NATO attack on Libya, and Obama's ongoing drone assassinations - as well as damage-control in her email controversy. An avid advocate of the targeted killing program, "Killer Koh" supports the legality of what he terms "extrajudicial killing" in Pakistan, Yemen and other Middle Eastern countries in the US "war on terror.
The Nuremberg Military Tribunal in 1947 stated unequivocally that the crimes of the ten civilian Nazi defendants who were convicted of murder and other atrocities, conspiracy to commit war crimes and crimes against humanity of civilians and nationals of occupied territories, were liable to severe penalty whether or not they had engaged in military action. The Nuremberg judgment still stands in  international law.
A reception to protest Professor Koh's appearance is planned at the north courtyard of the College of Law, U of I, Champaign, Il.  504 E. Pennsylvania Ave., Peabody Dr. before the lecture at 11:30am October 28.
