Argumentative Essay On Syrian Refugees

A refugee is a person who has been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, or persecution. Recently there are many debates going on, whether the United States should allow Syrian refugees to come into America or not. At the same time, there is a civil war in Syria between the government led by Bashar al-Assad and the rebels. As a result, there are thousands of Syrian refugees, without homes because of the civil war, attempting to flee the country and avoid both the conflict and ISIS. There are many States in America that don’t want to allow Syrian refugees to come into the America, because according to them they think that Syrian refugees can cause a potential security threat to them or maybe members of ISIS can enter into the

Many Syrians became refugees after the terrorist group ISIS appeared in their country. In fact, 1 million out of 28 million Syrians are refugees. One out of fifty refugees are thought to be members Syrians coming into Texas. Refugees need help and I believe that we are obligated to give it to them because we are humans.

The world that Americans live in is entirely different from that in which the Syrians live in. A Syrian’s life is submersed in death and it is filled with the constant struggle to survive. The root of all this pain and suffering is a large group named ISIS. The word ISIS stands for Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. ISIS Is an anti-western militant group and they pose a great threat to America. They might even be considered one of the most successful militant groups in history and that is why Syrian are trying their hardest to escape. People loyal to the Syrian president often times bomb Syria causing over thousands of deaths. Syrians are looking for refuge in any country that will accept them but unfortunately for them several countries don’t want to accept them because the possible threat of terrorists blending in with refugees is still a very possible threat for several westernized countries. Around 4 million

Do you like paying for things that don't affect you? That is what syrian refugees want us to do. They want people from other countries to pay for the syrian kids to get educated. I don’t think that people should have to donate through tax money. We shouldn't be forced to pay taxes for something that won't affect our country.

Several religious resettlement groups and lawmakers in United States are pressing the government to take in more Syrian refugees, up to 100,000, in one year, even as over 4 million have fled the country in the four years of fighting.

Asylum seekers in Australia always been the focal point of negative political concern for a long time. To stop asylum seekers continue arriving in Australia by boat, Australia enforces the policy of obligatory detention of asylum seekers, unauthorised asylum seekers arriving by boat will be sent to Papua New Guinea camp where operated by the Australian government (‘Asylum seekers: Australia’s shame’ 2017). However, this policy was reported as disgraceful because of the deficient living condition, indefinite and arbitrary of detention and lack of health care (United Nations 2017). Cohen (2011 p. 242) stated that moral panic could be more likely to develop in anything associated with 'immigration, migrants, multicultural absorption, refugees, border controls and asylum seekers’. Is Australia's response to asylum seekers an example of moral panic? By analysing the five criteria from the moral panic theory by looking at the Australian public reaction to asylum seekers with references support, it could be found that the reaction to asylum seekers in Australia is an example of moral panic.

Ever since the Syrian civil war broke out back in 2011, millions of Syrians have been forced to flee away from their homes to escape the terrors raised by their leader, Bashar Al- Assad. However, the President of the United States, Donald Trump, has banned all Muslims from entering the country until representatives can further establish a solution to the issue. Many like him fear the refugees will enter the country and rely on welfare or endanger the citizens of the United States. But studying farther into the bases of ISIS, the group already has thousands of members in Europe with EU passports ready to go. Syrian refugees should be allowed into this country as long as they provide a skill that will allow them to

The Syrian refugees are still trying to flee the country from ISIS and Al-Assad. The war has been going on for about six years- worldvision. Since March 15, 2017, 5 million refugees fled to other countries as and more than 6 million placed within the country, this news is also from worlvision. Al-Assad responded to some very peaceful protests by sending the military, killing and imprisoning many Syrian people explained by the AlJazeera new network. Unfortunately, Al-Assad wasn’t chosen by the people. The religion that ISIS supports comes from the Islamic state- BBC News. Mrs. Howard informed me that he was democratically elected. Al-Assad isn't a part of ISIS but is trying to fight. He isn't as determined to fight ISIS because it didn’t start in Syria he said this while interviewed by the Italian television. The government in Syria is very corrupt. In the U.S. the two states that have the most refugees are Texas and California. Allen west created that map to show which parts of the U.S. had how many refugees. He also posted that there are now 15 states that that will no longer accept refugees.

1. Research background: The waves of refugee from Syria to Europe begun after the outbreak Civil War in Syria. On March of 2011, protests appeared in the southern city of Deraa after police arrested and tortured some teenagers who illegally painted revolutionary slogans on a school wall. But the peaceful protests rapidly grew into rebel fighting against the government after the government 's violent crackdown. In July, 2011, a group of defected Syrian officers founded the Free Syrian Army to gather Syrian civilians as opposition. Tension between extremist groups, and ethnic groups made the domestic conflict even more complicated. The rampage rose up and descended the country situation into civil war as rebel groups were created to fight against the regime forces for taking over some areas.(Mercy Corps, 2015) Until February 2015, according to United Nations report, the total death toll has exceed 210,000, and about half of them are innocent people. (Suleiman, 2015) Moreover, the Syrian civil war had led to the displacement of more than 7.6 million Syrian people. In October, Russia started launching the airstrikes as an actions of erasing ISIS in Syria. However, the airstrike also made the refuge even worse and the distribution of aid more difficult. (Mercy Corps, 2015)

The Syrian civil war has caused 9 million to 10 million people to lose their homes. Those people are now refugees leaving their native land because they either have no place to stay at or they are fearful. They want a better life for their families and, so they would resort to using unsafe means to accomplish that goal. Refugees would go on boats or travel by foot from the Middle East and Africa to go all the way to Europe; most go through the Mediterranean Sea by boat. Because of this, many people die in the sea because of the poor structure of the boat. A Syrian boy was washed up on the shores of Turkey and was found to be dead. Most refugees live in refugee camps seeking for asylum. With the large increase in refugees, there comes a large amount of problems as well. Refugees may be terrorists in disguise, taking advantage of countries, and plotting terrorist attacks in said countries. Another problem is that with a large number of refugees coming in, a countries resources gets used up to the point where the country are not able to support their own citizens. However, taking in refugees may be advantageous to the country than if they do not. Refugees can bring hidden skills that others do not have. Refugees can also take over jobs that no one will take because its either has a terrible pay or because it is too dangerous. The refugee crisis has had a lot of controversy because it can affect a large amount of people and can destabilize an entire nation. Opponents of allowing refugees into countries argue that it can bring in a lot of terrorists and cause resources to deplete at a high rate. Supporters argue that it is human nature to help those in need and can bring in people with extraordinary skills and talents. Countries should allow more refugees, but only if security increases.

The abundance of Syrian immigrants has been a controversial topic due to the recent activity regarding terrorists. Many countries, such as United States and some European countries, choose not to accept these Syrian refugees because of the predispositions they have towards them. These countries fear terrorism, causing them to block off these people from entering their country. However, the concerns held by these countries are wildly blown out of proportion in accordance to the actual threat that refugees pose. The Syrian migrants should be welcomed in US and Europe because of following reasons: the stereotypes that people have on these foreigners are absurd, these people must be protected from outside forces, and their lifestyle is harmless.

First of all, the stereotypes and pre-existing portrayals of the Syrian refugees is absolutely ridiculous. The countries blocking these immigrants are, quite fairly, afraid of terrorism. However, these countries greatly overvalue the opinions of sensationalist media stories, creating a desire to be safe, rather than to be disturbed by Syrian immigrants (Posner). Trump, our current president, even stated in an address to his supporters during his campaign that, “If [he] win[s], they are going back” (Kallick et al.). This mentality is unacceptable and should not give the President and others the right to alienate these Syrian refugees because of their personal outlooks on refugees from countries filled with terrorism. Syrian immigrants are desperate to escape their country and start

The US House of Representatives voted last Thursday in favor of a bill suspending Syrian refugee resettlement pending new, stringent screening requirements for US agencies. The bill has gained Congressional support in light of the recent ISIS attack on Paris, and over half of US state governors have vowed to block refugee resettlement in their states. The proposed plan would also halt President Obama’s pledge to resettle 10,000 Syrian refugees in the US. Although Senate Democrats are expected to block passage of the bill, a public debate has developed around whether refugees pose a risk to national security. Lawmakers and the American public should consider the following four points in support of resettlement as they wade through this debate.From a security standpoint, geography affords the US a huge advantage when it comes to vetting refugees, a process it already handles extremely well. The US has resettled nearly 800,000 refugees since September 11, 2001, and only three have been arrested for activities related to terrorism. This is partially due to overhauling in the wake of the 9/11 attacks that dictates the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) refer candidates to the US government after an initial background check; the Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies then further screen candidates against counterterrorism databases. Refugees are permitted to live in the US for a year and allowed to apply for a green card, which requires more security

My fellow peers, today we find ourselves at a crossroad. Our strong Canadian nation is at risk. Since the election of Donald Trump, there has been a false sense of danger in people now fleeing the United States and illegally entering Canada. Communities around the Canadian border, as well as the asylum seekers, are at risk. We believe the federal government should resolve to act to stop the flow of illegal border crossing from the US border into Canada.
