[Peace-discuss] Anti War Group Protests On U of I Campus

To Amanda:
By the way Amanda, not even one of those THUG law professors who tried to bully you and the other NYU Law students into silence and inaction  showed up here to defend Killer Koh. Those THUG law professors had no problem ganging up on a handful of courageous but defenseless NYU Law Students. But they did not have the guts to take on one of their own. Pathetic! Just proves to everyone how rotten and corrupt the international law profession is in legal academia today. Just a gang of US Imperial Bootlickers. Either they have been in cahoots with the US government, or they are in cahoots with the US Government, or they want to be in cahoots with the US government. Ditto for the entire Illinois Nazis Law Faculty.

Anti War Group Protests On U of I Campus
BY HUNTER MCKEE FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28TH 2016
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (WCCU) — Protesters lined up outside the University of Illinois Law School Friday.
An anti-war group who expressed their concerns about guest speaker Harold Koh, who they believe is an advocate toward violence.
Koh served as a Dean at Yale Law School and spent four years as the 22nd Legal Advisor of the United States.
"He is an advocate of drone warfare, he's responsible for many deaths, not of soldiers, but of children, he's killing civilians and this is what the American people have to recognize,” said Karen Aram, a member of a member of the local antiwar, anti-racism effort or "AWARE.
They are just one of the groups who decided to protest against the university for showcasing Koh as a guest speaker for the law school, but this protest doesn't just involve them.
Francis Broyle has been a law professor at the college for 39 years and he supports this movement, "This is the most despicable act I have ever seen here at the College of Law.”
The University of Illinois respond by stating this:
"Professor Harold Koh was selected because he is one of the country's leading experts in public and private international law, national security law, and human rights. He has received fourteen honorary degrees and more than thirty awards for his human rights work."
However, Broyle and others believe it’s wrong for the university to support him.
"This clearly violates the Illinois Ethics Government Act and I would encourage the people in the community to file a complaint.”
