Persuasive Essay About The Rohingya Muslims

Refugee children around the world can feel inside out by not being home. Sometimes they have to leave some stuff to escape the war. The children would have to leave the stuff they love so they could survive. They might have had everything they needed one day, then they would have nothing. They miss their friends and families back where they used to live. The children will have to lose the things they love so they could live.

As our knowledge of Sierra Leone is very limited. The information which we can obtain in Australia from the newspapers, internet and government can be biased. The fact remains that these refugees arrived lawfully to compete in the 2006 Commonwealth Games. A fair go for refugees is a fair go for all Australians, most of the current arrivals have fled from conflict zones. Very few passed "safe countries" on their way to Australia, as most countries in our region, are not signatory to the Refugee Convention and are well-known for maltreatment of asylum seekers The law at the time was changed by the government to prevent asylum seekers that arrived by boat.

According to UNHCR, a refugee is someone who has been forced to flee his or her country because of persecution, war, or violence. A refugee has a well-founded fear of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, political opinion or membership in a particular social group. Most likely, they cannot return home or are afraid to do so. War and ethnic, tribal and religious violence are leading causes of refugees fleeing their countries. When people flee their own country, and seek sanctuary in another country, they apply for asylum – the right to be recognized as a refugee and receive legal protection and material assistance. An asylum seeker must demonstrate that his or her fear of persecution in his or her home country is

Words used everyday by our media and our highest politicians. We hear it uttered with condescension and tainted by fear.[b] But essentially ‘asylum seekers, refugees, boat people’ is what will determine our country's federal election. But many people in this room may not actually know what these 3 phrases really mean[c]. Are these people that seeking a better life, trying to be free and do what’s best for their families. Similarly maybe even searching for health care and resources, perhaps even fleeing from persecution or something else that is out of their control.

While on a school trip, I saw a small camp for refugees from Syria. It was absolutely heart wrenching. They lived in a shanty town and their clothing was old or secondhand from donations.While it was a brief encounter, the implications it had on me were enormous. My whole life had been full of privilege and low in strife. I always had clean clothing, food to eat, and a place to sleep. Right before I was at the camp, I was worried about whether or not I had time to stop to get coffee before I caught my connecting train. Seeing children half my age sick with debilitating diseases, and the overall standard of living, struck me in a way I didn’t, or couldn’t, understand if I didn’t see it in person. It opened my eyes to how grateful I am to live in America; and how lucky I am that my mom immigrated from the Phillipines, in the hopes that she would have a better

Last September, four year old Shahad was found in the rubble of a bombing site in Western Syria. Seven of her family members were killed in the incident.Now in a Lebanese refugee camp, Shahad and her remaining family members are struggling to survive. These are the families that the United States has the potential to help. The potential to let into our country. The potential to offer these types of families a proper education, because we, unlike them, have enough resources. We should let the Syrian refugees into our country.

Guilt that derives from the fact our country is not doing more to aide in the refugee crisis. Likewise, this article provokes me to ask the question: why are these images not shown more often in western media? I feel that currently our media is cluttered with useless information regarding inherently trivial stories, none of which compare to the struggles of not only children, but also millions of people. The refugee problem is currently one that I feel is ignored by many for various reasons. However, this article brings to light the horrors that are currently occurring and I feel it should be seen by more people, as the lives of refugees are no less than our own. Even though politicians make out refugees, and even immigrants, to be murderous extremists, the reality is most are nonviolent, normal families seeking a home, something often taken for granted by those in western cultures. The Syrian refugee crisis is, in my opinion, the most overlooked problem in recent history, and demonstrates in inherent issue in our society- we as a culture view these lives as less than our own. Overall, I feel this article does a thorough job of emotionally evoking readers and impacting their views on Syrian refugees and the lives they are forced to

Asylum seekers and refugees have been left and deserted on Nauru and Manus Island following the act to shut down detentions centres by the government. These refugees are unable to contact the Australian public and they lack legal support as well as medical services. And although Australians are protesting the unjust and unfair treatment of these people who are in need, the Australian government has refused to help these people out of what the Government placed them in the first place, despite their knowledge of their terrible living conditions and treatment.

The current refugee crisis is a serious issue. There is no doubt about it. The problem is that there are a large number of refugees attempting to enter this country, so that they can corrupt it with their un-Australian nature. They are not, as Tony Abbott would say, on Team Australia.

The family of refugees stood outside the United States boundary, hopeful for a new life even if they were immersed in a people they did not know, a culture they were not comfortable in, and a language they could not speak. They knew, that regardless of these factors, that this life would still be much better than one back in Syria in which they were worried for their lives, wondering whether they would live to see the next day. As they waited to be given permission to enter, they sat down and started talking in their native language. People around them looked at them askance and immediately began talking to themselves about these newcomers and making judgements about their appearance and culture. When they were called, they were asked what

If America were controlled by savage religious terrorists who wanted the world to end, what would a person do? Of course, a person’s first thought would be to fight back, but what if the civilians could not do anything? What if the people who took over America were ruthless and anyone who did not pledge to their religion would have his head cut off? The next probably be to flee the country and go to a safe location. The concept to move would defiantly be put into action as thousands of people would flock to countries such as England, Australia, and France. The truth is currently twenty-seven republican American governors are strongly pushing executive orders saying no Syrian refugees can come to their states. These states include Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Massachusetts, and Texas, just to name a few (Panic). This is a bewildering order to push considering the majority of people in Syria just want to escape the tragedy they are experiencing back home. Because America is the home of the free, and throughout history, has become a beacon for refugees all over the world, all Americans officials should accept the Syrian refugees into America.

Syrian refugees should not be allowed into the United States.we already have many immigrants coming in legally and illegally. The United States already has an overflow of the population and we still have problems that we have not fixed, so why should we fix the Syrian’s problem. We have no idea if the Syrians will attack us or not, once they get into our country, they will also have a possibility to take our jobs.

In the last decade, the number of refugees globally has tripled, from around 20 million total to now 65.3 million worldwide in 2017. So what is America doing to help this dire situation? Currently, not enough. With Trump’s travel ban and its revisions, only 50,000 refugees will be allowed entry, as opposed to Obama’s 2017 vision of 110,000 per year. In the name of national security, it would turn away thousands of people with nowhere else to turn. So what should be done? Refugees should be allowed entry and resettlement into the United States, American humanitarian aid agencies should be given more funding to help abroad, and finally the vetting process should be improved.

The process of allowing a refugee from entering the U.S is a long and tedious task. Eleanor Acer, of Human Rights First, provides some insight into this. She states: “Refugees go through more security checks than any other traveler to the U.S”. Additionally, refugees must also provide documentation of their family histories, and pass security interviews. An applicant must then pass medical examinations, and after arriving to the U.S a job must be obtained within six months. Afterwards, an applicant must wait to be granted asylum. Even then refugee applicants are based on priority. By that, it would mean; Top priority are individuals who’ve been identified through the U.S or an NGO with no other option (varies, could be a woman who was assaulted and now ostracized or someone who went against their government), second are groups of “special concern” who’ve been selected through groups like USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services), UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees), and certain NGOs.

America’s refugee policy should be handled with an unprejudiced attitude, refugees are just doing what anyone else would do. Fleeing danger in search of advantageous living conditions is a basic human instinct.
