Ben Rodkey Glaser English 10 3-4-15 ISIS ISIS has been a rapidly increasing threat to not just the United States of America, but the entire world. ISIS has done countless brutal, sick, heart wrenching things that have caused a national and international uproar in the citizens of numerous countries. ISIS considers them the Islamic State, and they seem to have many motives. They basically want a large portion of the Middle east under ISIS control and for the rest of the world to accept their disgusting “traditions” as they claim they are doing, This threat has done some very unspeakable things; the problem needs to be solved. Considering the view the United State holds right now, there are a few actions that can be taken to reduce this threat that ISIS presents. ISIS has rapidly become an enormous problem for most of, if not all of the world. There are some very simple and some very complicated ways to solves this problem. The most efficient way is to simple go to war with ISIS and physically, mentally and emotionally destroy everything and everyone that is supporting this cause, another way is to give them what they desire to have, finally the last option is just completely ignore the foreign issue until it presents itself on U.S. soil. After an online video emerged on Tuesday, January 21st, 2015, showing ISIS threatening to kill two Japanese hostages, relatively little was known about the relationship between the two prisoners. But Reuters News revealed later that next day
Force is the only thing that ISIS respects. I believe that the action that the United States government is taking is a good start, but if the efforts fail, I truly think they must step up and take whatever measures necessary in putting an end to this travesty. They are endangering the lives of so many people that it would be crazy for the United States and other leading world powers to not take aggressive action in defending them. ISIS attacks many innocent people through violence, terror, and social media tactics. We must do whatever it takes to take them down, before they become even stronger and pose a larger threat to the United States and the
four airlines and carried out suicide attacks against the United States buildings. 2,996 people were killed and more than 6,000 other were injured. 9/11 was the biggest influence on the United States. The attacks on 9/11 toward the buildings, there has been changes in airports and the immigration system. There has been domestic spying on the citizens of United States, people were changing their trust in the government, and the ongoing wars.
After the incident on September 11, 2001, the attack captured a huge attention all over the world and made others more aware of terror. 1n 1996, terrorism became popular when Osama Bin Laden formed Al-Qaeda network. The attack was a surprised worldwide and it brought a huge affect to the United States government and other countries as well.
Throughout history, barbaristic groups or armies, have threatened the world and specifically the United States. In WW2, you normally think of the brutality of the Nazis. However, the United States main worry was the Japanese military. The US was appalled by the barbarous demeanor of the Japanese. Nearly 71 years later, the US is alarmed at the cruelty of the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). Although their motivated by different things, in both ISIS and Japanese codes of conduct, there is no room for mercy, cruelty is their code.
isis is infiltrating the U.S more and more and even as we speak someone is probably cooking up a plan of attack which is why we need to do something now. According to CNN news post there is yet another element to the process of shutting down Isis, and that is social media, television programs, and other information sources that anyone can access might be a huge problem because any time that Fox news or CNN announces something about Isis or a plan of attack, Isis will hear that and will be able to prepare ahead of time. Another way to eliminate isis from our country is to increase borderline security all around the U.S even by shore line to insure that nobody is sneaking into the country to cause trouble and commit
Al-Qaeda has shaped the U.S. and its Anti-Western ideology that has corrupted the world. This terrorist organization was constructed by Osama bin Laden. Bin Laden’s main goal was to drive the United States armed forces out of Saudi Arabia and Somalia through the technique of violence. Members of Al-Qaeda issued fatwas indicating that the attacks were both proper and necessary. Al-Qaeda had a command and control structure which included a consultation council, allowing many heartbreaking attacks to form. The al-Qaeda organization used horrendously violent acts to induce terror during catastrophes, causing social climate of distrust and fear to emerge the American citizens.
Since the brutalizing attacks that occurred in the United States on September 11, 2001, terrorist groups such as al Qaeda, and its subdivision turned adversary - the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria - which we affectionately refer to as ISIS, have metastasized into a worldwide threat that has shaken our way of life, our culture, and our approach to our opponents (Kohlmann). From 2013 to 2014 there was a whopping 35% increase in terrorism with attacks in 95 countries, proving that despite the valiant counterattacks, terrorism will not go down without a fight (Williams). Of course, the United States did declare a “war on terror” that despite many cons did result in the ultimate pro - the assassination of Osama bin Laden, the leader of al Qaeda and mastermind behind many terrorist attacks, including 9/11 (Shah). All casualties aside, the death of bin Laden, and more specifically the means by which his
It has become an important target to the U.S., and has also executed multiple victims around the world. There has also been many American citizens who have been arrested for association, or becoming a part of ISIS’s plans to attack the United States. But, this is trending all around the world, and has become difficult to stop spreading. They are causing a tragic flaw in the stability of America, questioning who the true psychopaths are, and where safety lies in America. ISIS have said that they are not only planning to terrorize America, but also segregate it. On the other hand, the United States government believes that, to stop all this brutality in America, we need to cause war in their regions
The most recent presidential race associated the most dangerous fear and entity to the United States is ISIS, which is a radical Islamist extremist group that models their actions closely with Sharia Law. ISIS mainly consists of terrorists that are willing to do anything to destroy more prominent Western civilization. ISIS is the terrorist group of this current generation; however, they were not the first terrorist group in this region. Terrorist groups started as a result of Arab nations lack of ability to militarily confront Israel during the 1960s. The Palestinian secular movements such as the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and Al Fatah began to target civilians that were not associated within the immediate arena of conflict.
“Isis skills are so beneficial to our world today” She is such an influential and powerful women and she so influenced our modern world today. Isis’s name means “throne” and with a name like that you just know that this girl is going to be an awe-inspiring queen. She was often referred as a beautiful woman wearing a sheath headdress; very intimidating look she had. Isis was also the daughter of the earth god Geb.
All around the world, many are whispering questions about this new terrorist group ISIS. Are they truly a danger to the United States or any other country or are they only dangerous to the Middle East? Can they be easily defeated or have they gotten too far out of hand to be stopped? Critical thinkers, however, are formulating their opinions on the situation. The naïve disbelieve that this notorious terrorist group poses any real threat to humanity and that all are safe from their reaches and brutality. While others believe they are very dangerous and maybe too strong to completely handle or stop. These analyzers are wise to be skeptical about the IS’s abilities because once one underestimates the strength of its opponent
In order to formulate a policy against ISIS, there must to be an understanding regarding how ISIS came to be and what its motives are. ISIS is a terrorist organization that began as al-Qaeda in Iraq. In time, ISIS split from al-Qaeda for ideological differences, mainly because ISIS wanted to control large areas of land in order to establish a caliphate. In the past year ISIS became increasingly violent, and started being stricter with the regions they hold under their control, such as beheading people, and burning them alive. Now ISIS controls an area roughly the size of the United Kingdom in Iraq and Syria. ISIS’ main objective is to establish a caliphate where they can follow Islam to its strictest interpretation.
ISIL and associated forces having been moving quickly across Iraq, taking control of large sections of territory and driving out residents. It appears that they have turned their eyes toward Baghdad, looking to take control of the capital and extend their control further. This of great concern to the United States government as ISIL is a direct threat to our interests in the region and to the homeland. They have killed three Americans this year with the possibility of publicly killing the other American hostages they hold. These killings are a direct attack on the United States and cannot be ignored. In addition, there are Americans in their ranks that heighten the threat ISIS poses to the United States. With access to US passports and the ability to reenter the country, these fighters could carry out an attack inside the United States. The government feels that action must be taken against ISIL to prevent damage to our national security and harm from coming to our citizens.
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
