Harold Hongju Koh, mlangizi wakale wa a Hillary Clinton pazamalamulo ku dipatimenti ya Boma aitanidwa ngati 'wokamba nkhani' ku UI College of Law, masiku khumi ndi awiri chisankho cha Novembala chisanachitike. Koh, pano ndi pulofesa wa Yale Law School komanso Dean wakale, ndi mnzake wapamtima wa omaliza maphunziro a Yale Law School Bill ndi Hillary Clinton. Anasankhidwa ndi Purezidenti Bill Clinton kukhala Mlembi Wothandizira wa State for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor; ndi Purezidenti Obama, monga mlangizi wamkulu wazamalamulo kwa Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: adapereka upangiri wazamalamulo kwa iye panthawi ya 2009 ku Honduras, kuwukira kwa 2011 US / NATO ku Libya, komanso kupha kwa Obama komwe kukupitilira - komanso kuwongolera zowonongeka. mu mkangano wake wa imelo. Sanganene kuti upangiriwo unali wotani, ponena kuti ndi "loya-kasitomala mwayi" - ngakhale Khothi Lalikulu lidagamula motsutsana ndi kukhulupirirana kwa loya ndi kasitomala pakati pa maloya aboma ndi akuluakulu aboma.
"Killer Koh" amavomereza kuti "kupha munthu mopanda chilungamo" ku Pakistan, Yemen ndi mayiko ena aku Middle East ku US "nkhondo yolimbana ndi zigawenga" ku US, akunena kuti ikugwirizana ndi "malamulo onse ogwira ntchito." , kuphatikizapo malamulo ankhondo,” ndi kutchulanso ‘mfundo ya kulinganiza zinthu’ m’ “kusamala kwambiri pokonzekera ndi kuchita zinthu pofuna kutsimikizira kuti zolinga ‘zovomerezeka’ zokha n’zolunjika komanso kuti chikole chikhale chochepa.” Poyesa kuwonekera poyera, olamulira a Obama posachedwapa atulutsa chivomerezo chaching'ono choti "anthu 116" mwina adazunzidwa ndi ma drone aku US - chithunzi chomwe sichikugwirizana ndi nkhani za mboni zowona ndi maso, atolankhani komanso ofufuza zaufulu wachibadwidwe, omwe adachitapo kanthu. analemba zikwi zambiri za ovulala. Purezidenti Obama adati - mu mphindi yodziwonetsera yekha - "Zikuwoneka kuti ndine wabwino kwambiri kupha anthu ... : Kusintha kwa Masewera 2012").
Ngati Hillary Clinton atasankhidwa kukhala purezidenti, ndi upangiri wa Tim Kaine ndi Killer Koh, atha kukhala wofunitsitsa kupha anthu ambiri kuposa omwe adamutsogolera: kuchuluka kwa ovulala kuyenera kupitilira mndandanda wakupha kwa Obama, monga momwe amawonongera masiku ano. kuposa GW Bush.
Chakumapeto kwa Lachisanu pa Ogasiti 5, a White House adamvera monyinyirika chigamulo cha Khothi la Federal (kuchokera ku suti ya ACLU) ndikutulutsanso "Purezidenti wa Ndondomeko Yotsogola" (PPG) pa pulogalamu ya Obama yofuna kupha anthu. PPG ikunena kuti "palibe chilichonse mu PPG ichi chomwe chingatanthauze kuletsa Purezidenti kugwiritsa ntchito mphamvu zake za Constitution ... (Kupha nzika zaku US kumafuna kuvomerezedwa ndi Purezidenti). Mndandanda wa imfa umalembedwa mlungu uliwonse ndi 'komiti yosankha' ndipo imawunikiridwa ndi maloya a mabungwe omwe amasankha (CIA, Pentagon, NSC, akuluakulu a Dipatimenti ya Boma ndi "atsogoleri ndi akuluakulu a komiti yosankha").
Mwa mayiko asanu ndi awiri a ku Middle East kumene kuphedwa kwa drone kumachitika, "malo omenyera nkhondo" - Iraq, Syria ndi Afghanistan (sizikudziwika ngati Libya ikuphatikizidwa) - sizikufuna kuvomereza kale. Ndi protocol iyi yomwe ili m'malo, White House ndi National Security Council ndizotetezedwa kunja, ngakhale ndi Congress. Imaganiza kuti Mtsogoleri Wamkulu akhoza kuchita chilichonse chimene akufuna; ipereka Purezidenti Clinton # 2, ndi kuvomerezedwa ndi hawks Tim Kaine ndi Harold Koh, mphamvu zazikulu ndi chilolezo chopha.
A Koh monga loya (m'mbuyomu) wa State Department adateteza poyera kupha anthu mopanda chilungamo ngati "ndondomeko yoyenera pansi pa Constitution m'nthawi yamakhalidwe oipa ndi ndale." M'mawu ake ku Oxford Political Union mu 2013 adati, "Bomali silinachite zokwanira kuti liwonetsere za malamulo ndi ndondomeko yopangira zisankho ... ” kuonjeza kuti kusaonetsera poyera kumeneku n’kopanda phindu ndipo kwachititsa kuti pakhale “chithunzi choipitsitsa cha anthu” chakupha anthu. Kodi Prof. Koh akuganiza kuti kuwonekera kwaposachedwa kwa PPG (yosinthidwa kwambiri) kolamulidwa ndi Khothi kumapereka "poyera" kukhutiritsa otsutsa kuti ndi zovomerezeka kupha anthu?
Ngakhale a Koh akufotokozedwa kuti ndi wodziwika bwino woyimira ufulu wachibadwidwe wa anthu ndi anthu (mwachiwonekere nzika zaku US zokha), adakhala "wopeza mwayi wofanana" ngati mlangizi wamalamulo ku maulamuliro a Reagan, Clinton ndi Obama - onse omwe aphwanya ufulu wachibadwidwe. a anthu akunja. Sanayimirepo ufulu wachibadwidwe waumunthu ndi ufulu wa anthu ngati membala wa Ofesi ya Unduna wa Zachilungamo ku Ofesi Yowona zamalamulo kwa Purezidenti m'boma la Reagan, pomwe ofesiyi idavomereza kuphwanya malamulo apadziko lonse lapansi, Charter of United Nations ndi Constitution ya US, ndikuphwanya kwakukulu ufulu wa anthu ndi kuyesa kusokoneza mayiko a Grenada, El Salvador, Nicaragua (kuyesera kuchoka ku International Court of Justice, yomwe inadzudzula US chifukwa chophulitsa mabomba ku Nicaragua), Guatemala, Libya, Angola ndi kwina kulikonse kum'mwera kwa Africa; ndipo pamene idathandizira boma la tsankho ku South Africa motsutsana ndi anthu akuda, idathandizira kuwukira kwa Israeli ndikupha misasa ya anthu othawa kwawo aku Palestine ku Lebanon, komanso kuthandizira madera osaloledwa a Israeli m'malo olandidwa ndi Palestina - pomwe US idagwiritsa ntchito veto yake ku UN Security Council, motsutsana ndi zilango zotsutsana ndi US. Kuphatikiza apo, olamulira a Reagan ndi alangizi ake azamalamulo adakana kuthandizira mapangano oletsa kuyesa kwa zida za nyukiliya, m'malo mwake kuchulukitsa zida zanyukiliya zoyambilira, SDI ("star Wars") ndi mizinga ya MX. Osati mbiri yonyadira ya munthu yemwe amagwira ntchito ngati upangiri walamulo kwa Purezidenti.
Mwayi umene Harold Koh anapatsidwa woti aphunzitse akatswiri azamalamulo a ndale ndi mayiko ena akubweretsa funso lakuti, Kodi University of Illinois College of Law - ndi mbiri yake ya chilango - ndiyoyenerera kuphunzitsa maloya am'tsogolo, pamene ikuthandizira munthu wakhalidwe la Harold H. Koh m’nthawi yovuta ino ya ndale?
Khoti Lankhondo la Nuremberg mu 1947 linanena mosapita m'mbali kuti milandu ya anthu khumi omwe akuimbidwa mlandu wa Nazi omwe adapezeka ndi mlandu wakupha ndi nkhanza zina, kukonza chiwembu chochitira ziwawa zankhondo komanso milandu yolimbana ndi anthu wamba ndi mayiko omwe adalandidwa, akuyenera kulandira chilango chokhwima kapena osati anali atamenya nawo nkhondo. Chigamulo cha Nuremberg chikuyimilirabe m'malamulo apadziko lonse lapansi.
Chikondwerero chotsutsana ndi kuwonekera kwa Pulofesa Koh chikukonzekera ku bwalo lakumpoto la College of Law nkhani isanachitike masana pa Okutobala 28.
