[Peace-discuss] FW: Defending Civil Resistance Under International Law

[Boyle, Francis A]

Defending Civil Resistance Under International Law
When you “step across the line” at the Nevada Test Site, at a military base or at your local federal building, you are probably protected by International Law. Our treaties (like the Partial Test Ban Treaty) and the Nuremburg Principles provide you with a legal defense against arrest and imprisonment when you commit acts of “civil resistance” against our government’s illegal warmaking. A number of juries have returned “not guilty” verdicts after hearing this defense.
The presentation of this defense allows you to educate the jurors, the judge and the prosecutors–maximizing the impact of your action.
Dr. Francis Boyle’s landmark book tells you how to run your own legal defense of civil resistance actions.
This book is a must for any person who has taken part in a civil resistance action, or who has contemplated doing so. See how this defense can not only give you your best chance to avoid jail, but can also advance the cause for which you risked arrest.
