Isis And The Roots Of Terrorism

Think about it, you’re walking down the street or just sitting at your favorite place to eat. Then the next thing you know half the street is blown up and you’re either dead, injured, or the person next to is. This is what the people of Paris felt like the day ISIS sent suicide bombers to blow up the city. ISIS first started as a group that broke off from al-Qaeda. In 2014, ISIS controlled more than 34,000 square miles in Syria and Iraq, from the Mediterranean coast to south of Baghdad. ISIS believes they are part of a prophecy written 14 hundred years ago and that they are a key part of an apocalypse that is to come. Their goal is to create an Islamic state called the Caliphate across Iraq, Syria and other places across the Middle East. ISIS has became a global threat and we Americans need to do our part. Now let's talk about what they

Terrorism is a form of communication because it gets the attention of major countries, it widens a terrorist group’s publicity, and it exposes a goal that a group of people want to achieve to the general public. A good analogy for terrorism would be to think of it as the younger sibling in a family of four. You have the mom, the dad, the older sibling and the younger sibling. Then say the older sibling is getting all the praise and attention from the parents and the younger sibling sees that and wants attention too and it starts doing nice things for attention such as cleaning up, and being nice but that’s not working so it starts to act up. The younger sibling starts throwing fits and making a mess just to get attention and it starts to work. That’s what terrorism is. Most times terrorism comes from groups and political organizations (ISIS, Al-Qaeda Taliban, IRA) whose original intentions we good and started off doing good things for the people but they weren’t getting the attention of major countries and their governments. So

As ISIS began to cause terror and became a major risk of world safety, various countries formed alliances to fight against ISIS. The US launched a series of air drone attacks against individuals who were leaders and members of the terrorist outfit. Terror cells in the USA were also dismantled using intelligence gathered by security agencies such as the central intelligence agency and the Federal bureau of investigation. There has also been an upsurge of spy activities and laws have been changed to allow spying against terrorists both at home soil and abroad. On 18th November, a terrorist cell was dismantled in the suburbs of St. Dennis in the outskirts of Paris. It was discovered from information gathered from a cell phone that was on

Throughout history, the Middle East has encountered many obstacles that are still present today. Terrorism is a huge obstacle that has not yet been overcome. In previous years, the United States saw Al Qaeda as the main face of terrorism. Today, that is not the case. Formally established in 2013, the most prominent terrorist group today is ISIS also known as the Islamic State and the Levant (Pierpaoli). ISIS is a Salafist Muslim organization that has declared a caliphate in Iraq and Syria and imposes a strict interpretation of Islam. According to the U.S. secretary of defense, it is “beyond anything we have seen.” Led by Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi, it has been seen as the most potent military force in the nation (Morgenstern). Similar to the group

ISIS, we all know the name. The very name that puts fear in americans just by hearing it. ISIS is a terrorist organization in the middle east. To be exact, they are the richest terrorist organization in the world. Getting most of their funds from imposing taxes on citizens of the towns they capture, abducting people and collecting ransoms, extortion rackets, intercepting aid meant for suffering Syrian and Iraqi people, and pillaging.ISIS is more of a “Horrible” not just because of these things, but because they are a type of hate group that will kill anyone who do not believe what they believe in. ISIS has done horrible acts of hatred towards christians by beheading them; Even Americans were beheaded: a journalist named James Foley and a british

A.Terrorism is a bold distinctive word it shows the act of causing terror of innocent people as well as the government(FBI).

Terrorism has shown itself to be a major issue in the past couple of decades. With the birth of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, otherwise known as ISIS, the word saw a new kind of evil. The United States and the rest of the world had never been threatened more with the militant groups rise to power. Thousands of people have been slaughtered at the hands of ISIS and a majority of the World powers have yet to intervene. A majority of the World Powers have a strong enough military force to defeat them, yet have not taken action on ending the evil Jihadist. However, an attack on the Islamic State would not be easy and many negative factors would have to be worked around. As the World Powers continue to put ISIS on hold, the terrorist strength and power continues to grow stronger. If a change isn’t made, and a fight isn’t brought to the Islamic State, hundreds of thousands

Terrorism is a political action ensued using violence and intimidation, yet has no correlation with race or religion; therefore, the assumption and stereotype that terrorist groups such as Al Qaeda and ISIS are fueled by a ‘violent’ religion, Islam, is false. In actuality, Islam is built on altruistic and nonviolent principles, and unfortunately the majority of people seem to have unfairly institutionalized all Muslims as jihadists and anti-Semitic, even going as far as to deduce all individuals practicing their faith as terrorists themselves. This often bigoted and racist presumption had led to further conflicts, and ultimately terrorism coupled with the parochial views of many has made life particularly arduous for the peaceful Muslim Americans

ISIS has brutally murdered about 33,000 people (civilians and non-civilians) by suicide bombing, executions, when people don’t follow their rules, when America doesn’t pay the ransom, and more. Despite that, America has pushed ISIS back to about 15% of its land. But keep in mind that ISIS is still a very powerful and ruthless terrorist group, because while they will kill people without caring; they all do it for their goals as you’ll find out if you read on. ISIS basically has one goal, which is to be even more powerful and expand their rule. ISIS has been started and affected many things for reasons that we’ll be talking about in this article. For one ISIS is still a very cruel terrorist group because of its background, what they desire, what

After reading the CFR Backgrounders it does not say that ISIS poses a fundamental threat to U.S. national security. But what it does tell you is that, just because ISIS isn’t an existential threat right now doesn’t mean that United States can take it easy because it is still a serious threat to the US. The experts said that ISIS is a serious threat to international security but they agreed that the group, is in the wake of the Paris attacks, but it does not qualify as an existential threat to the United States. ISIS pose eminent threat to anybody who does not belong to ISIS group.

ISIS is a group of people that are very bad and heartless. According to Obama " No faith teaches people to massacre innocents". ISIS, the group of terrorist use extreme violence against their enemies. They also plan brutal attacks, like the Paris attack. They don’t care if you didn’t do anything to them, they are still going to kill you no matter what. I personally think that there should be an end to all of this. ISIS has hurt a lot of innocent people. They have destroyed and damaged a lot of things. But they don’t care at all. I srtongeley dislike ISIS. I've always wondered why they do all of this? What's the cause and affect of it. Is there ever going to be a stop to it? Why do they hate us? Why do they hate people? Hopefully there's

Since 2001, the American society as we know it has changed dramatically. The rise of terrorism on the homefront has caused us to change how the government interacts with its citizens. The rise of secrecy and the loss of privacy has come as a response to these actions and we see no end to it.

Terror groups such as ISIS and Al Qaeda have struck fear deep into the hearts of many Americans. Fear that has turned into hate and ignorance among these same people because they believe that the acts of less than one percent of an entire population have somehow translated onto the other ninety-nine percent. It is this same fear that spreads hurtful messages around the internet:

Did you know that Paris is the city of love? Unfortunately on the evening of November 13 2015, it turned to the city of disorder, a group of terrorist launched a series of well-coordinated attacks on the innocent civilians of Paris, France. The attacks consisted of suicide bombings, mass shootings, and holding hundreds of hostages. Some details and questions to think about are the history and background of ISIS, how did ISIS execute these events without anyone even noticing, Thirdly, you might wonder why ISIS would do such a cruel act, next, who was involved in these acts of terrorism, how is it related to the San Bernardino shootings, and lastly how we can prevent and abolish these acts of terrorism.

Have you ever had a fear for your family, your town, your country, or your world. How about the fear to have everything taken from you, destroyed, and not caring if it has hurt you or not? What about your fear and pain is, and can be someone else’s happiness? The fear of you being terrorized? That is terrorism. Someone else bringing fear and terrorizing you. That is a terrorist’s goal. Terrorism is common and is very difficult to stop. The government promises protection for the people, and their home, but they can not give that protection if they can not stop terrorism. Terrorism needs to stop to protect the live of the people, and their country.
