Canada - Afghanistan - 15 long years since the imperialist occupation

on October 7, 2001, the United States and Great Britain began bombing Afghanistan from the Air. The Americans and their coalition of the willing, began an attempt to destroy a country and build it back from scratch. We are all told that this war is for human rights, women's rights and for the security of the people in Afghanistan and in the West.

It's been 15 long years since the imperialist occupation of
Afghanistan as the so-called ‘Global War on Terror’ began. But it has also been 15 long years of people’s active resistance against foreign invaders, including Canadian imperialism and ISIS. Coming from a strong legacy of struggle, Afghanistan is rich with ongoing revolutionary and grassroots movements that warrant our support here in Canada. In the spirit of internationalism, join us on October 7 as we occupy the streets to express our international solidarity to the people of Afghanistan!

Condemn the imperialist occupation of Afghanistan!
Condemn the puppet government!
Condemn the Islamic State’s (ISIS) invasion of Afghanistan!
