The Citizen’s Investigation into War Crimes in Libya (CIWCL) is a small, informal collective of ordinary but talented people.
Hailing from several nations, the CIWCL's members have come together to investigate events of the civil war in Libya, the lead-up to it, and the aftermath of it.
We use publicly available sources, gathered and compared, with an emphasis on primary evidence. Physical evidence (via photographs and video) is taken as that, and witnesses claiming to have seen things as, well… claims, which should be double-checked against other claims and against the physical evidence.
This crucial aspect of our approach in large part explains the radically different findings from those reached previously by Human Rights organizations, world governments, and the mass media.
