The Islamic State Of Iraq

Immigration laws have resulted in a situation where many illegal immigrants live and work in the United States. Yet, it is an important issue that has been blown out of proportion by the media and politicians. Here in the United States, Syrian refugees have enriched our cultural growth into a more diverse and positive outcome and have enhanced our influence in the World. However, Americans have responded to their arrival with violence and hate towards them.

Walter Kirn, an American novelist and literary critic, stated that ‘‘Everyone loves a witch hunt as long as it’s someone else’s witch being hunted.’’ (Web. Walter Kirn Quote) Although the Salem Witch Trials took place over 300 years ago, in 1692, and we claim that we have come a long way since then, the truth is we have not. The hysteria that took place during the witch trials occurred because people refused to take responsibility for their actions. The same thing is happening in modern day America due to a 4 year long civil war, in Syria, and a mounting war on terrorism, in the United States. Syrians are fleeing their country because of the impending civil war, of 4 years, between those loyal to President Bashar al-Assad and those who oppose him, the rebels. Accepting refugees from war torn countries has always been something the United States has done, even if it caused some controversy. However, there has never been more controversy on whether or not to accept refugees from Syria. This is because of the terrorist groups in Syria who have continued to execute fatal attacks on Westernized countries, specifically the United States. A number of U.S. citizens do not want to accept Syrian refugees for fear that some refugees could pose potential threats or have relations with the terrorist group, ISIS.

Terrorist, sleeper cells and undeserving; these are all adjectives that Americans have used to describe Syrian refugees. This type of bigotry is an issue that must be addressed. In light of the recent attack on Paris, there has been a dramatic shift to block President Obama’s plan to bring 10,000 additional refugees into the United States. Imagine that, a nation of immigrants blocking other immigrants from entering. In order to gain this kind of overwhelming support for such a bill, propagandists have used countless personal attacks on an entire race and claim that it is in the name of national security. Rather than lock down the borders, the United States should take California’s model for vetting refugees and make it the federal

Many people believe that the United States should not let Syrian refugees into the United States to escape war would damage the country’s safety and way of life, but the U.S. should allow them in because it provides these immigrants such as humanitarian aid, safer families, a well- rounded education, and a strengthened workforce. As the Syrian Civil War rages, ISIS bombs the Middle East, and Russia targets airstrikes, thousands of Syrian refugees flee their home and country with their lives. Children cannot go to school and parents are running out of money. They need aid, but in the war-torn cities there is little help that these people can find. Separated from their jobs, livelihood, and families, they can

Why should Syrian refugees be allowed to continue coming into the United States? Well, this problem was started in Syria, where it only began with anti-government outcry, where the Syrians were against president Bashar al-Assad. Soon, the protests were turned into a civil war. The United States has been trying to bring in Syrian refugees, away from the battle. Unfortunately, though some people are against admitting more Syrian refugees, but here are some reason why we should continue to admit them in the United States The reasons why we should continue the admission of Syrian refugees, is because it is our moral rights to protect humanity and to not let history repeat itself,

The United States should continue take in Syrian refugees at a high rate because it is a humanitarian gesture for the people uprooted by war and crisis. The United States has been accepting refugees systematically since 1980, when the Refugee Act passed. The goal of the Refugee Act was to create a uniform procedure with which to provide these opportunities to refugees. Since early 2011, Syria’s civilians have been suffering from the effects of their country’s Civil War. The United States provides a safe haven for babies, kids, teens, and adults who are impacted by the war tragedy.

As of right now, the situation between the U.S, and Syria is anything but peaceful and suitable for Syrians. Just recently, the U.S president, Donald Trump, just launched a bomb in Syria, destroying many buildings, businesses, and homes for the citizens of Syria. With nowhere else to go other than other third-world countries like Jordan, Syrian refugees resulted in escape the war and mass destruction of their homeland, in pursuit of better life, a blank slate. Few hundreds to thousands traveled to Europe, and Asia, but great amounts of refugees are trying to migrate to the U.S. To many immigrants and refugees, the U.S seems to be the best option for them, in terms of better opportunities in life, work, etc. But many U.S citizens, and even higher powered individuals, such as Donald Trump, doesn’t want

Since World War 2 the United States had been allowing refugees come and stay. Most of the refugees that come to a country want to start a new life, even if it was a 50% chance who welcomed them was the United States. Now that Donald Trump is president, less than half the refugees (Syrian refugees) has been able to come since the last years of the Obama Administration. Donald Trump says he’s protecting the

However, we have a limit as to accepting refugees. Our economy and national security cannot afford the costs of these refugees. In my opinion, the ultimate goal for helping Syrian refugees is to take back the lost territory and restore their country. With the current war lasting more than 5 years and not showing any signs of terminating, Syria needs more international military support than ever. Regarded as the world’s policeman, the US have the responsibility to help suppress it and contain the spread of terrorism in the

Countries surrounding Syria like Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey aren’t able to support any more people. (Sengupta). The United States of America was created with a purpose to start a free country with equality. If the U.S. truly lives by this motto then they would let in Syrian refugees and gain a good reputation. The Syrian refugees aren’t all terrorists like the world assumes. The New York Times article, “To Combat ISIS, Welcome Syrians” says, “Most of the terrorists on American soil do not come from the ranks of refugees but are individuals who are born here… nothing to do with admitting refugees” (Speckhard). This explains that not all refugees are extremists. The rights of Syrian refugees should be protected. Refugees should be welcomed to the U.S. just as if a neighbor is invited into a

Just a few weeks ago the GOP lead house of representatives passed a bill at a 289 to 137 vote to devastatingly hinder if not stop president Obama’s proposal to take in 10,000 Syrian refugees in 2016. Along with this opposition from the house the GOP front runners for president Donald Trump and Ben Carson have strongly voiced their opposition to taking in of the refugees,

Like the NBA player who gets booed for missing a shot that 90% of the population couldn’t even dream of making. Politicians have a difficult and impossible responsibility to please the public and put the nation in the best possible position. However, despite these distinguished minds all collaborating and voicing out on the controversy that is the Syrian refugees it is clear the answer is quite opaque. The sensible thing to do in a situation with no clear answer is to do whatever you can for the effected party while also protecting your own country. 10,000 Refugees is a lot to vet over a shortened time period and could very well be impossible. It is the United states responsibility to keep it’s criteria for entering this country as strict as ever and protect itself while also working with the U.N. and offer as much support as can be expected. Over the last two years nearly 2,000 Syrian refugees were properly integrated into our population incident free, I see no reason to stop that kind of progress moving forward as we continue to help those in need and protect our

Do you have and idea of how many refugees are fleeing and seeking for a home right now? According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees(UNHCR) the most recent updated number of Syrian refugees are around 4.8 million people, and it is a huge number of people that need help. The United States is a nation of immigrants with a lot of opportunities, and as a country of such success, they should be willing to accept some Syrian refugees, who are simply looking for a better life. Even though the United States is one of the most powerful country in the world, the number of Syrian refugees accepted in the country is less than many other developing countries. As stated by Ian Bremmer from Time Magazine in November, 2015, the American government has only accepted 2,290 of the 4.2 million refugees, and that is only 0.0005% of people seeking safety. Clearly the number of Syrian refugees welcomed in the country is not an acceptable amount, especially when it comes to a country as great as America. There are plenty of reasons why the U.S. should accept the Syrian refugees because they help the economic expansion, enforce the security of the country, and be an example to others as a good civilian not a terrorist.

This issue was chosen due to its scope. The Syrian refugee crisis is among a list of issues that will not only shape the world in 2016 but also dominate news outlets in upcoming years. Because of the despairing situation, many governments are struggling to find ways to handle the rush of individuals seeking asylum, for the fact that it seems the crisis is worsening. In addition, the media coverage on the topic sparked my interest and led me to research information because I had no idea what was occurring and the detriment of the issue.

"America is the greatest for the individual donor Syrian crisis." Where is the obstacle? some say that opening of the country to more Syrian refugees is risk of entering extremists. Republican presidential candidate, Marco Rubio, the son of immigrants, said the United States should be careful. "At some point, will potentially open to relocating some of these people in America," he said. "I always worry us the fact that among the overwhelming number of people seeking refuge, can also be introduced someone with a terrorist background ". But the process of Syrians seeking asylum in the United States is complicated by a long investigation procedure intended to ensure that only non-extremist desperate refugees reach US soil. Normally, the process for a designated refugee resettlement in the United
