Terrorism has a twofold effect on human rights. On the one hand, attacking innocent civilians constitutes the crime of terrorism, and on the other hand, governments violate human rights law in fighting terrorists; and certain states basically deny the applicability of human rights law in combating terrorism. However, human rights, as a system of law, contains considerable rules and mechanisms which could be applied in war against terrorism, and this applicability has enormously been acknowledged in international instruments. Therefore, States are not allowed to violate nor limit the application of human rights in the name of combating terrorism. Nevertheless, the system of human rights provides for the exceptional and provisional derogation of certain derogable rights if the terrorists attempt to attack; or the fight against terrorism involves state emergency. This derogation however does not allow States deny the rule of law and act arbitrarily in fight against terrorism.
