The US’ War on Terror will continue to fail! Two decades since the 9/11 attacks and the Afghan invasion, the defeat of imperialist US’ Forever War in Afghanistan proved to be another nail in the coffin for US’ flailing aim of re-establishing its unchallengeable hegemonic position and military supremacy.

The war on terror stands as the banner campaign for US and its puppet states’ wars of aggression in their desperate attempt to overturn the inevitable imperialist crises. Yet, despite trillions spent, the war on terror only pushed US into a deeper strategic decline. The monopoly capitalist system continues to experience an ever-worsening crisis amidst the massacre of millions and economic destruction caused by wars of aggression and global militarization.

Of course, this imperialist war is far from over. But as the Afghan experience showed, such war could be defeated through the armed resistance of the people. Around the world, movements for national liberation and against foreign and imperialist domination as well as revolutionary armed movements, such as the CPP’s people’s war in the Philippines, continues to persevere, rise and advance in the face of US imperialism’s war binges. The exploited and oppressed are ever more inspired to finally end imperialism and establish a society truly ruled by the proletariat.
