BREAKING ALL THE RULES:

Palestine, Iraq, Iran and the

Case for Impeachment 

 

18th Annual Bertrand Russell Peace Lectures Address:

 

"PRINCIPLE CONFRONTING POWER"

PALESTINIAN RIGHTS and the

NATIONAL CAMPAIGN TO

IMPEACH GEORGE W. BUSH

 

When it comes to the prospect of war and global hopes for peace, no
issues are more germane than the Israeli occupation of Palestine, and
the role of George W. Bush in the invasion of Iraq-and few are better
qualified to address them than international legal expert, Francis A.
Boyle.

 

Boyle is a former legal advisor to the Palestinian delegation to the
Middle East peace negotiations from 1991 to 1993. In an effort to halt
the invasion of Iraq in 2003, along with colleague Ramsey Clark, he put
forward draft articles for the impeachment of President George W. Bush
for lying to Congress in leading the nation to war-the first of a long
series of initiatives seeking Bush's impeachment.

 

This book compiles the proceedings of the 18th Annual Bertrand Russell
Peace Lectures delivered by Francis Boyle at the Centre for Peace
Studies at McMaster University in January of 2007. It is updated here to
the October 17th, 2007 press conference is which George W. Bush
terrorized the world with the prospect of World War III if the Iranian
government were to acquire even the knowledge of how to make nuclear
weapons that was soon followed by the Annapolis Conference that was
supposed to promote Middle East peace.

 

Francis Boyle brings as insider's view to the issues of Palestinian
rights under international law, and to the case for the impeachment, and
the current status and prospects for each. He raises serious questions
concerning where the Bush Administration is leading America, with its
lies, its pre-emptive wars, its domestic signing statements overriding
the will of Congress, and its abrogation of international law and its
constitutional obligations.

 

Previous Russell Lecturers have included E.P. Thompson, Elena Bonner,
Edward Said, Ramsey Clark, Nobel Peace Prize Winner Joseph Rotblat,
Johan Galtung, and Noam Chomsky.

 

Titled "The Legacy of Bertrand Russell: Principle Confronting Power,"
the lectures addressed two subjects of pressing concern:

 

Palestine, Palestinians and International Law

and

The National Campaign to Impeach

President George W. Bush
