Ironically, the terrorists lost on all their goals. Al-Qaeda wanted to scare the US out of the Middle East, instead they destroyed the US but made them more interventionist than any time since the beginning of the Cold War.
It’s so weird that terrorism mainly strengthens authoritarian regimes rather than bringing them down. But of course there’s no reason at all to suspect that’s their real goal.
