    Since 9/11, governments have used the "war on terror" to justify assaults on individual freedoms through increased surveillance powers, police powers, and detention powers. While governments cite 9/11 as justification, the document argues that 9/11 was itself a violation of human rights that requires investigation under the standards of crimes against humanity due to its global impact. The document examines the criteria that should be used to investigate 9/11 as a human rights crime.

    In my opinion since 11 September 2001 the human rights community has faced a

    new challenge, namely the assault on individual freedoms in Western democracies in the
    name of the war on terror. Every day governments introduce new challenges to individual
    freedoms, including police powers to monitor private communications, mass surveillance
    methods and broadened search and detention powers. These attacks on human rights have
    been been extensively analysed and denounced by the legal community. Yet, the event
    invoked by governments as a justification for all these attacks on human rights, commonly
    designated as a terrorist act or as an act of war the mass killings of 9/11 was equally a
    gross violation of human rights, giving rise to specific state obligations.

    The primary purpose of this study is to apply criteria developed by the case-law of the
    investigations into 9/11, a crime against humanity that affected in some way most
    inhabitants of the world.
