Abstract

The primary purpose of this study is to arrive at an analytical and exhaustive comprehension of the geopolitics behind the origins of the so-called "War on terror." It is an effort to inquire into the reasons for the War on Terror to determine whether it is such or whether or not it was suborned to increase the hegemony of the West. Specifically, it is an endeavor to look inside. Because the strong governments, ever since the days of the cold war and even earlier, have been the ones to start the struggle, the conflict, and the war to maintain their hegemonic position.
