Syrian Refugee Crisis : An Violation Of Human Rights

The only reason the war started was because there people wanted more freedom. When they didnt give it to themthe people started to protest against the goverment. The syrian goverment chose to attack the protesters. Which caused the war. As the war started to progress foreign countries picked sides. Countries like russia,iran,united states,saudi arabia, qatar, and turkey. None of these countries seem to agree on the pain for peace russia and iran are supporting presonlation

Syria’s civil war is the worst humanitarian crisis of modern time. The “Syrian Civil war Began in March of 2011, between rebel brigades and government force; economy and infrastructure is destroyed” (Library, 2016). “Divisions between secular and religious fighters, and between ethnic groups, continue to complicate the politics of the conflict” (Corps, 2016). Additionally, the Syrian civil war has taken a significant

In Syria there has been massive battles between rebel forces and the governmental forces. The problem is that the rebel forces are split into multiple factions with different agendas. In some cases you have found that rebel forces may even be fighting one another. ISIS has even arose out of this chaos further weakening the rebels chances of overthrowing the government because it splits the agenda into even more smaller fragments. The results of this fragmentation are that Syria is now a shell of its former self. It is in a constant state of war and battle and prospects for the future are not looking

The editors of Britannica Encyclopedia bring up how the Syrian War started due to “protestors demanding an end to authoritarian practices in the Assad Regime that have been in place since 1971 under Hafiz al-Assad, Bashar al-Assad’s father” (“Syrian Civil War,” par. 1). With this want of an end of an era rebel militia groups sprung up over a very short period demanding change in the Syrian government. Militias started small by attacking government meetings and targeting specific Syrian government officials. In a little under a year Syrian militias began a full-fledged war between themselves and the Syrian government. Almost immediately after the Syrian War was declared a war the United Nations jumped in to aid the innocent civilians who were being hurt from the weapons of warfare. Since Syria was already a poor area the war only made it worse and left many homeless and exposed to the fighting in the streets. With over 25,000 dead and 2.5 million in need of food, water and medical supplies the Syrian War crisis has received responses from all over the world… but it’s not enough to bring a sense of safety to the innocent people of Syria (Hilleary pars.

The Syrian people began taking to the streets in hopes of a peaceful protest against the Assad regime. The Syrian government did not like this one bit and responded with excessive force, resulting in the shooting, killing, and torturing of many innocent peaceful protesters. This soon escalated into an all out civil war where the country was divided into three major groups that are occupied by the regime members, islamic extremists, and rebel fighters. The conflict in this area has become so brutal and entangled with foreign help from many countries, that citizens of the affected war zones needed to evacuate their villages to be

The Syrian war is a multi-problematic situation that started within Syrian borders. The Syrian war began in 2010 with something called the Arab Spring. The Arab Spring is a chain of events where people caused aggressive and non-aggressive situations such as protests which created harm in the Middle East. In 2011 people started a non-aggressive protest because children were being abused after spattering graffiti that stated how they agreed with the Arab Spring. The president during this time was Bashar al- Assad. Assad would torment and imprison the people of Syria who protested. The Syrian People wanted to end Assad’s brutal actions so they created a Free Syrian Army which led to a civil war (i.e. the Syrian war). There are several countries

A current issue on the minds and agendas of the international community is the Syrian Refugee Crisis. The situation has only escalated since its start in 2011, and as the number of displaced Syrians reaches over 9 million, countries around the world, not just the ones in the Middle East, are increasing efforts to offer asylum and aid for these people. The Syrian Refugee Crisis began with peaceful anti-government protests in March of 2011, but after the violent response of the government, rebels, army defectors, and many civilians formed the Free Syrian Army by July of the same year (Mercy Corps, Sept 2nd, 2015). The presence of ISIS within Syria and the differing views of religious groups (namely Sunni and Shiite) in the country only add to the chaos of destruction of the country and the Syrian people’s lives and homes. With the constant state of war within the country, basic necessities like food, water, and shelter have become scarce and Syrian people are looking to find new homes of stability and safety. The large majority of Syrians have fled to the neighboring countries of Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, and Turkey. However the burden of harboring these refugees has put huge stress on the countries as the sheer number of people entering the country becomes too much to handle. Today one in five people living in Lebanon is a Syrian refugee (Mercy Corps, Sept 2nd, 2015). With the neighboring countries already beyond capacity, Syrians are looking for shelter in places outside this

“Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!” These are the words inscripted on the Statue of Liberty, the same words that have welcomed millions of refugees to our shores. In the past we had opened our doors to thousands of Soviet Jews and hundreds of thousands of Cuban and Vietnamese refugees. now that legacy of compassion and acceptance falls to us. The Syrian people are in the same situation as the millions of refugees that came before them. They are not the terrorist, but in fact the victims of terror. It is only out of paranoia and fear of the latest attack that we confuse the two. In the words of

Many other problems surrounded the occurrence of the central problem as Syria has been in the middle of and part of several Middle Eastern conflicts including the Iran-Iraq war, the Afghan War, the Iraq-US Ware, and the 6-day war. Furthermore, the West, specifically Israel and the United States have been known to support anti Syrian groups attempting to overthrow the political regime in place. In the early stages of the ware, many causal factors occurred, including continuing civilian protests that were met with more violence, Unites States imposed sanctions against President al-Assad and several other officials, United States and European imposed economic sanctions, and Russian and Chinese support of President al-Assad. The adversarial nature and military backing of Syria by different world powers essentially transformed the country into a giant chess board in which developed countries picked different sides some siding with the state and others with the rebel groups. Lastly, in a time in which several other countries where overthrowing totalitarian governments in the Middle East including Egypt, social media was spreading the idea that people could in fact make a difference in choosing how they would be governed and that they could demand

Since March of 2011, there has been an outbreak of civil war in Syria. This started off as a peaceful protesting campaign but escalated when the government reacted violently. Rebels were quick to fight back against the regime. When June came around, political conflict was on a rise. The army defectors had formed a Free Syrian Army and many civilians have taken arms to join the opposition. Also, divisions have been made between secular and Islamic groups, and variations between ethnic groups which only contributed to the opposition.

The Bashar regime is just trying to hurt has many innocent people as possible till they successfully recapture the power. They do not like how the protesters were speaking out against them, fearing other would turn away, so they used military action to try and regain order. A better term for what is going on in Syria is a humanitarian crisis. What is going on is affect the wellbeing of all Syrian people, not just one type of person.

In 2011 a civil war broke out in Syria, a civil war that is still going on today. It's a constant back and forth with the Syrian government and these regimes. The government is out of control and

In the recent days Syria has been suffering of many unfortunate events, and the citizens of this country are being the most affected by all the events. Some of Syria citizens decided to look for a safer place for their selves and their children. However, many countries had decided to close their borders and negate the entry to any Syrian refugee. For my personal opinion human beings trend to help each other’s for nature. In addition, many religions around the world say that if you can help someone that need’s it you must do it. Anyway, when world leaders decided to negate their help to the Syrian refugees they were been inauthentic to their religions and to their human nature. If it is true that terrorism is something that comes from Middle East, we should not negate the opportunity to survive to all the innocent people that are suffering in that zone.

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.

Syrian civil war started in 2011 was the outcome of the opposition against the President Bashar al-Assad regime. The uprising emerged as a response to the Arab spring movement that lead to regime change in Tunisia and subsequently turned into mass unrest rooted into the discontent with long-term dictatorship and poor economic situation in the country (Manfreda, n.d.). The number of Syrian citizens killed in the civil war reached 140000 since March 2011 (SBS 2014). The European Commission (2014, 2) reports approximately 9.3 million civilians “in need for humanitarian assistance”. The scale of armed rebellion between government and opposition that lead to an increasing number of casualties among civilians did not remain unnoticed by the
