Winning against is imperialism is surviving against it until the systemic forces cause its weakening and then it’s overthrow. If Hezbollah is temporarily stopping to ensure survival to await further weakening, it’s still a strategic position to have. It’s one that can seem depressing, and can be called a battle loss, but we need to keep that in mind.

Imperialism will fall, and the contradictions are rising. Any battle loss needs to be analyzed as such and will be learned from to win the war.
