Foreign And Aid Syrian Refugees

The welcoming of numerous Syrian refugees into America is contentious, likely to cause or is causing an argument. It 's no secret that our President, Barack Obama, made a promise, a year ago, to bring in at least 10,000 Syrian refugees in the next fiscal year. Those who are all for it believe showing our morals, using non-government help, bettering our economy, adding to our diversity, and strengthening our alliance is what will come out of allowing them through. The opposers feel that the likelyhood of them being terrorists is to great, they will be too expensive, have to use our taxpaying dollars, could over populate, and push us away from potential job oppurtunities, that is why they shouldn 't be allowed here. Are you for it, or are you against it?

“Every Muslim, from the moment they realize the distinction in their hearts, hates Americans, hates Jews, and hates Christians. For as long as I can remember, I have felt tormented and at war, and have felt hatred and animosity for Americans,” Osama Bin Laden.

The topic of discrimination is one that has been a prominent issue all throughout history. Humans are rather known for taking all of the fear, mistrust, and hatred that they experience and act on it in a way that generalizes and segregates them from one another. Furthermore, they allow these feelings to cloud their judgement of right and wrong. One example of this is the Syrian Refugee crisis. Citizens and government officials are denying these refugees help in their time of need due to their misplaced discrimination and overall lack of compassion. Articles from websites such as CBS , CNN, and Newsweek have all taken a stance on what America needs to do for Syria, touching on aspects such as the statistical

Since 2011, Syrian Refugees became a popular topic all over the world, however with recent events this has become an issue that is only growing larger and larger. This cartoon discusses the issue that Syrian refugees have caused in europe and in America. The authors claim is that the opinion that the Republican party, mainly GOP candidate for president, Donald trump, has on this issue is ignorant. The way that the cartoon is set up, it allows the author’s conclusion get through his audience and have the claim clearly stated.

President Barack Obama has announced that the United States plans to take in 10,000 refugees. For many Americans, this is a number far too large, but others disagree. With millions of refugees leaving their home-country of Syria because of a civil war, many people wonder, is the U.S. helping as much with this dilemma as they can and should? Some countries have taken in so many migrants it’s caused a population spike, while others have done little or nothing at all. (Martinez) The United States has accepted only 1,500 Syrian refugees into its borders since civil war broke out four years ago (Edelman). When compared to the 4.1 million refugees that need our help, 1,500 is a pitiful number. Because this crisis is of such large proportions, the

Upon starting this project, I was unsure of how well my group would work together because we were all very different and we employed quite disparate ways of looking at life. Our group was hesitant to do the topic of the Syrian refugees’ impact in the United States because it was so controversial, but after examining the various perspectives this project could cover, we knew that we had to do it. Furthermore, after seeing how relevant the issue was to our lives, we had to see how exactly it would affect us. We predicted that the solution to this problem would be relatively easy, but it was more comprehensive than I could have imagined.

As one of the worst refugee crises since World War Two, the Syrian Refugee Crisis has caused many people to flee for their lives from their homes in Syria in hopes of finding their safe haven. According to the White House’s government-controlled website, “since 2011, almost 12 million people, equivalent to half of the Syrian population, have been displaced by the conflict, including 7.6 displaced inside Syria” (whitehouse.gov). Around the globe, many government officials have taken on welcoming attitudes towards the millions of people that are seeking refuge from their war-ridden home-country, while some other officials have taken on very cautious dispositions mainly in fear of consequently making their people vulnerable to attacks. Within

Refugees are treated the same way that American citizens are treated and they obtain same employment. Syrian Refugees must apply for the same job as citizens do. They enter economic zone that is not able to give the proper number of jobs for refugees. Syrian refugees and immigrants also often give jobs to U.S. workers because they have a tendency to start a new business.

This world has its flaws. There are wars, displaced people, poverty, etc. Therefore, nations are required to help those in need and attempt to find solutions. From what has been debated around the world, it seems that despite all the risks, prosperous European and North American countries have a moral responsibility to allow refugees to seek asylum in their countries. It is the duty of first world countries to help war-torn and disaster struck area victims, as it is a benefit for them in the greater picture. Denying refugees this privilege causes jihadi terrorist groups to become that much stronger. Moreover, a country that allows in these refugees can be subject to further flourishing socially and economically.

Should the United States of America, along with other countries, give asylum to more refugees or be allowed to refuse? That is the question that both the U.S. and the rest of the world are asking themselves. However, the answer to that question really should be easy and not at all difficult. The Syrian Refugee Crisis has been an ongoing crisis that has no signs of stopping anytime soon. It’s also the worst humanitarian crisis since World War Two. Nearly 4.5 million people, men, women, children alike, have fled their home country of Syria and have tried to find and gain asylum in other countries due to the Syrian Civil War. With the war having killed more than 250,000 people, it would make it possible for these refugees to gain asylum in other countries. Yet, this is proven to be very difficult because many countries either don’t want to take in any more refugees or they can not take in anymore because their countries are overwhelmed with refugees. (BBC News: Syria: The story...). Because of this situation, many would believe that we should help these people and aid them in any way possible, but that’s not the case. Many nations are divided of what to do about the Syrian Refugee Crisis. Some strongly believe that countries should take them in not only because it is the right thing to do, but altogether both refugees and countries can benefit. However, others strongly believe countries should not take refugees due security concerns because we don’t have any background

The way people see security and safety is changing around the world due to increase numbers of terrorism. Countries around the world are becoming more in favor of securing their border and bring in less and less immigrants. This sentiment has been gradually increasing over the years. However, one country government openly welcomed Syrian refugees and that nation is Germany. S. Akbarzadeh, and D. Conduit, (2016) state that more than 4.8 million refugees are living outside Syria, and many more are displaced in the country. Many countries now realize the effect the war has had not only to the Syrian people but to other surrounding nations.

It makes me sympathize with the Syrian refugees because it seems that citizens from other countries seem to generalize ISIS with other Muslims, which is extremely discriminatory and prejudice. It hurts my heart to see innocent Syrian refugees traveling hundreds of miles to get to a safe-haven to only be turned away because their religion has now been generalized as terrorism. I personally think that if a lot of countries opened up their borders and took in certain amounts of refugees, then there wouldn’t be a scarce amount of resources in Germany. It is difficult for one country to carry all of the burden, so it would help if other countries communicated and worked together towards alleviating Islamophobic situations. My last reaction is that I am devastated to see that Syrian refugees go through so much during their journey to safety just for them to experience more internal violence and discrimination in refugee camps, which is supposed to be someplace safe for them to

The Syrian refugee crisis has received massive media coverage. People around the world are trying to comprehend the desperate, complicated situation surrounding Syria. The civil war in Syria is the worst crisis in our time. Syrians upset at the fact that long promised reforms have not been enacted, began anti-government demonstrations which started the civil war in 2011. The peaceful protests turned ugly, with the government violently putting an end to those protests. Afterward, ordinary citizens took arms, causing the situation to escalate. Syrians are fleeing their homes because of the great violence, which have left thousands dead and millions wounded, a collapsed infrastructure, resulting in a shattered economy, and for the safety of the children. Syrians are either streaming to surrounding countries or risking their lives to travel to Europe.

The first of the displaced Syrians arrived in Turkey in April 2011, and since that time the numbers have climbed to over 600,000 refugees1 as a result of the civil war that has turned more brutal and threatens millions of civilian lives. To provide the basic necessities for these émigrés Turkey set to work building multiple refugee camps in a variety of provinces close to the Syrian border. These camps currently hold over 200,000 refugees and most are filled or overflowing2. Yet the inundation of Syrians is never ending, with estimates predicting that by the end of 2013 over 1 million Syrians will be residing within Turkey’s borders. The Turkish government has already poured seven million dollars into sustaining these directionless and helpless people. But the problem arises when the truth of the matter becomes a reality; these Syrians have no place to go, and

Since 2011, Syria has been engaged in a Civil War with protestors against the government and members of the extremist group ISIS, and approximately 7.6 million people have been displaced from their homes (usnews.com 2015). As the conflict destroys more homes and livelihoods each year, an increasing number of civilians have been forced to leave Syria and try to find safety elsewhere. Already a contentious issue, the Syrian refugee crisis has awakened tensions, both economic and social as debate erupts over what to do with the refugees.In response to the crisis, while some countries like Germany have pledged to help the refugees, (New Statesman 2015 1) only 2,340 have been admitted. Clearly, more needs to be done in order to help the refugees. Although there are economic and population concerns to be considered, the humanitarian conflict that faces the refugees and solutions already available are reason enough for Europe to increase the numbers of Syrian refugees allowed in.
