Description

On September 11, 2001, Al Qaeda operatives attacked civilian and military targets on US territory, causing thousands of deaths and billions of dollars in economic loss. On September 12, the United Nations Security Council unanimously adopted Resolution 1368 characterizing the attack by Al Qaeda as a "threat to international peace and security" and reiterating the right of states to use armed force in self-defense. NATO, for the first time in its history, invoked the obligation of collective self-defense under Article 5 of the NATO Treaty. On September 14, the US Congress passed the Authorization for the Use of Military Force, authorizing the president to use "all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks." Terrorism, conceived until then as crime, was reconceived--as war. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED]
