ISIS: Radical Terrorist Groups In The United States

Chief among the threats to the United States today is ISIS. To be able to know how to properly address this problem, one need only look at the beginning of the conflict to understand how to end it. The reason ISIS went from a ragtag militia to an armed force capable of fighting both the Iraqis and Syrians, was with the equipment and training provided by the US government and our allies. This was done with the explicit purpose to enact regime change and create a free, secular state. Granted, at the time they thought they were arming democratic loving rebels. But doesn 't that just prove that we don 't have the competence to be getting ourselves involved in conflicts where we can 't tell who the good guys are?

The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, also known as Isis, terror group has been an important issue in the United States for the past couple of years. After the recall of troops from Iraq, radical Islamist movements started to begin and Isis was formed. The first issue of Isis is they have grown in numbers over the years. Secondly, Isis controls thousands of square miles of ungoverned territory. Their high supply of troops and land allows them to creatively think of major attacks, including attacks on the U.S. Lastly, when people see the attacks from Isis, some people naturally gravitate towards these groups. Two months after 9/11 attacks Osama Bin Laden said “When people see a strong horse and a weak horse, by nature, they will like the strong horse.” Isis will continue to grow in power if countries do not come together to help totally eliminate them.

Isis has 30,000 fighters( “Isis trail of terror”). February 2015, Isis had 20,00 more foreign fighters who had come to help( “Isis trail of terror”). Not including 150 from the United State. Isis is spreading into Syria, Iraq, and towards Baghdad tormenting the sick, and killing people till they decide to join their side ( “Isis trail of terror”).Obama said, “ Let's be clear about Isis, they have rampaged across cities beheading people in cowardly acts of violence.”( “Isis trail of terror”). Isis is growing bigger and bigger each second, and only we can stop it.

"We're looking for opportunities to do more, and there will be boots on the ground, and I want to be clear about that", Secretary of Defense Ash Carter said about defeating ISIS, or the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. Because my partners and I agree with Secretary of Defense Carter, we stand in support of the resolution, Resolved: The US should declare war on ISIS.

The San Bernardino, California shooting by a married couple was thought to be the work of a religious group terrorist group called ISIS. ISIS is also called the Islamic State. ISIS is known for terrorizing the Middle East in countries like Iraq and Syria. Although we can’t prove that ISIS was behind the attack of the San Bernardino shooting many say that it was ISIS. Therefore we need to put ground troops in Iraq or Syria to prevent ISIS from growing stronger and becoming a major threat to the U.S and other major imperialist powers.

America’s invasion of Iraq in 2003 led to many smaller branches of terror groups to form. ISIL grouped as a small organization who pledged their allegiance to Osama Bin Laden’s al Qaeda. In ISIL’s early days it was not a huge organization with swaths of land, it was dedicated in getting U.S.

ISIS is a dangerous terrorist group from Syria/Iraq causing trouble all around the world. ISIS have had increasing violent attacks that include beheadings and suicide bombings. They have threatened to kill 2 journalist from the U.S.A if they don’t receive the quantity of money they want. I feel like ISIS is targeting on the U.S for more and more money. The will tend to get more violent and stronger as the years pass by. I think it won't be such a good idea to just go over and fight ISIS, that would make ISIS a bigger threat to America.

While the United States has taken some action to deal with this pressing issue, it has not been enough thus far. According to the Journal of Strategic Security, specializing in the International Center for the Study of Violent Extremism, point out that military launches through air strikes have managed to lessen ISIS’s control in Iraq and Syria by de-financing the group through limiting their use access oil. However, this alone has not and will not stop the functioning of ISIS. The Journal of Strategic Security expresses that while the military movement was a good effort, ISIS has plans “to expand its support base and intensify its attacks outside of Iraq and Syria.” Simply putting restrictions on ISIS is not enough, just as attacking from the air is counter productive and causing more damage rather than removing ISIS. Likewise, the Journal of Strategic Security continues to discuss that ISIS has a solid group of foreign fights worldwide that are disposable and able to be controlled easily. This leaves room for continual attacks and replenishment of members. Thus, it is imperative that the United States use ground troops to eradicate

They have people from Africa, Asia, Europe, and Northern American ISIS is a threat to global peace and people globally, that is why it not only up to the Iraqi and Syrian government to eradicate them. Although it is clearly not just an American problem, America still needs to step in and aid others trying to end ISIS. America should not launch a full-fledged military campaign, it would exhaust resources (Cronin). What America needs to do to defeat ISIS is continue with a limited military campaign and major diplomatic efforts. The only way to defeated ISIS is to contain them, they need to be suffocated of their resources, technology, ammunition, and weapons. Obama supports this thought, he stated although they were not a real threat right now, they could be if left unchecked. America needs to continue with airstrikes. They have proved effective, their leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was deathly injured during an USA led in March this year. Although this would not kill ISIS it is a huge step forward. ISIS has lost plenty of land in Iraq, they are not completely disappearing yet though, but this is why America needs to continue to work with the Iraqi government and military. Recently, America held a meeting with world leaders to discuss what should be done to fight ISIS back. ISIS is not only trying to target America, they are trying to challenge international order, that is why America and worldwide leaders need to work together to stop ISIS. Every major government should stiffen the arms embargo on ISIS. The great news about this is that no government supports ISIS, they have made enemies with almost

Today, one of the biggest issues facing the United States as well as the rest of the world is the Sunni-militant group which goes by the name of “ISIS,” or the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. It has been the topic for major discussion for the past three years, with many leaders of major countries and nations trying to figure out how to defeat them. ISIS is a powerful force and has been for several years and many countries including the United States are trying to figure out how to stop them.

“War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today” (John F. Kennedy). The United States should destroy ISIS by bombing them in an auspicious manner, so that the people will no longer feel threatened. ISIS is a terrorist group that emerged in the Middle East. ISIS stands for “Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.” It originated in the year of 1999.

In 1945, Syria had a barely functioning civilian government and a military that was always involved in the government’s politics. Syria and Iraq have now made new allies with; Afghanistan, Libya, and Yemen. “ISIS’ involvement in the Syrian Civil War has exacerbated the conflict, leaving over 300,000 dead, two-thirds of the Syrian people in need of humanitarian aid, and some 11 million people uprooted (7 million internally displaced and 4 million refugees abroad)” (Forsythe, Monshipouri 1) which is a very big reason why ISIS needs to be stopped. ISIS killed so many innocent people, just because they wanted to bring terror into the whole worlds lives and wonder what is going to happen next, where is it going to happen, and if it is going to happen to one of us. Our U.S. foreign policy has not effective at ending Syria’s crisis, not even a little bit. After Syria’s uprising, the U.S. and United Nations have thought about resolutions to trying to defeat ISIS but, none of those strategies have worked so far. After the attacks in Paris, on November 13th, it was a lot easier for us to make airstrikes against ISIS. It was also a very big part of why Paris decided to take action and also to airstrike as well. There are also major problems that we have to think about when trying to take over ISIS. We have to think about making an effective size ground force big enough to

ISIS has been causing all over the middle east as well as America to live in such fear. Everyone is in debate about the U.S going to war with ISIS, there are tons of pros and cons to this serious situation. Washington is overdue for a serious debate about what U.S. national interests are threatened by the Iraq crisis. ISIS today represents a direct and growing threat to the United States, it has attracted an estimated 12,000 foreign fighters. It seems like this mess with ISIS will not end until America does something about it. We have troops and soldiers for a reason right? To protect America why not put them in action and make them

ISIS is becoming a big power now. If we don’t take drastic action, it could become a superpower like the US or Russia. Imagine ISIS as one of the most feared thing in the world. Its power could have been stopped long time ago, and now they are impossible to stop within a few years.ISIS is becoming a big power now.

Also, ISIS is growing and eventually airstrikes will become futile.

(Al qaeda: 9/11 ISIS: Charlie Hebdo, Paris and San bernadino other groups I dvon't know the attacks ISIL). The US should support certain countries in fighting against terrorist groups but shouldn’t send US troops to those countries to do the fighting . For this we need allies and enough supply and strategies to help our allie fighting against them.
