The Syrian Refugee Crisis

I think that our national government is sufficiently held in check through the Check and Balance System found in our nations Constitution. Basically, this system was implemented so that no one branch of government could become too powerful. For example, the Supreme Court could put a check on Congress by declaring a law unconstitutional. The power is balanced however, because the members of the Supreme Court are appointed by the president and must be approved by Congress. I think that the framers would be pleased with today’s scope of governments powers because we have a very “happy medium” government, one that isn’t too powerful yet not too weak.

Brody asked the president, “the refugee changes..., as it relates to persecuted Christians, do you see them as kind of a priority here?” The president responded “Yes”, and that they are going through many horrible treatments, and is a very significant priority. Judge, the president has clearly said he will prioritize christian refugees and this is blunt religious discrimination.

Hana Pierces girl’s ears and taking care of family members children in her spare time. She helps her parent in domestic works. Dominus states that it is illegal to work in Lebanon when they are Syrian refugee because of that supervisor who let them work in the field treat them unpleasantly. One day, when Hanna asks for water while working in the field, the supervisor says that “What are you stupid?” (qtd. in Dominus), but she continues to work. She reported that the World Food Program aids $14 for each person, and the WFP raised $21. Dominus says that water shortage was difficult before the Syrian refugees into Lebanon, and it is usual two to three people get sick in the camp because of the contamination.

Developments in Society can be seen in many different ways depending on an individual’s worldview or perspective. This idea is evident through the Syrian Refugee Crisis and how it affects Canada. This crisis in Canada is changing every day, as the government creates decisions on how they will or will not aid the refugees. Canadians are saying that they may approve of this refugee resettlement plan laid out by the federal government, but only if it’s taken so far and so fast. The reporters of a Vancouver News Network, a Toronto Tabloid, and an America Daily Newspaper compare and contrast the ideas of a survey from the Angus Reid Institute, a non-profit organization that conducts surveys to analyze different trends in the economy.

Should Syrian refugees be allowed to seek refuge in the United States of America? This question is in serious debate among many citizen’s and elected officials in the free world (Zaimov, 2016). Terrorism has struck a widespread panic in Americans who fear the teachings of the Islamic religion. The Muslims communities are taught about the Holy War, or also known as Jihad. Their Doctrine uses this Jihad as one of their ways to eventually dominate the world (Bradley County News, 2015). So why would not every American citizen fear any religious group that believes that any non-believer should be eradicated before Allah? In this paper, we will confer on aspects of both scientific and spiritual reasoning concerning this question.

It was a nice summer morning we I was all of a suden shoke like turbulence on a plane to wake up. It turns out I slept threw my alarm to wake up for the day. It was about 11:00 am and today we were heading to Florida and our flight takes off at 1:00 pm. You may think that we had time to make the airport in Milwaukee but, we had to drive all the way to Chicago, Illinois because there was no flight for Florida in Milwaukee. Luckily I had packed the day before with the rest of my family so all we had to do was wait for our aunt Lisa to take us to the aiport in Chicago. She showed up five minutes later with a mini van and there was about seven of us jammed in there. It was alright for me because in our family if you called “shot-gun” or “I

Meanwhile, the Obama administration continues to receive Syrian refugees and has now gone past two-thirds the 10,000 target by Sep. 30. However, Christians make up only less than half of one percent of these migrants, CNS News

Denying the entrance of Syrian refugees into certain states sabotages the values America’s founders instilled in the United States. The people inhabiting this country in the next century will find it difficult to know that their ancestors let this injustice slip through. Especially due to the previous occurrence that was deemed as a wrong doing to the Jewish people. The exclusion of a certain race is archaic in current times, let alone in the views of the next generation. Due to the Syrian civil war, many people are being forced to leave their home country in hopes of a better quality of life. The constant violence, lack of adequate healthcare, and ravaged economy are all reasons why the so many Syrians are escaping the country (“What You Need…Impact on Children"). They lack the many commodities that the American general public take for granted. Large masses are leaving with no plan for where the journey will take

As one of the worst refugee crises since World War Two, the Syrian Refugee Crisis has caused many people to flee for their lives from their homes in Syria in hopes of finding their safe haven. According to the White House’s government-controlled website, “since 2011, almost 12 million people, equivalent to half of the Syrian population, have been displaced by the conflict, including 7.6 displaced inside Syria” (whitehouse.gov). Around the globe, many government officials have taken on welcoming attitudes towards the millions of people that are seeking refuge from their war-ridden home-country, while some other officials have taken on very cautious dispositions mainly in fear of consequently making their people vulnerable to attacks. Within

As President Barack Obama said, “Apparently they are scared of widows and orphans coming into the United States of America” (Darcy). The Syrian refugee crisis is a huge subject of discussion during this presidential race and the results of this election, whether Republican or Democratic, will be the difference between helping or hurting this migration. The Syrian refugee crisis has been a worldwide problem since the civil war started in 2011. The death toll quickly rose as the violence got out of hand. The next president is going to ultimately decide the fate of tens of thousands of Syrian refugees, innocent men, women and children. Currently our president is going to allow up to 10,000 Syrian refugees to find safe haven in the US. Every single presidential candidate has their own stance on the issue, Republicans lean towards restriction of the refugee policy, while Democrats lean towards loosening it.

In 1942, millions of jews lost their lives to hitler’s forces. The world wanted to take action. In 2015, the world still is not taking action and repeating the same mistakes of 73 years prior. The world hasn't learn there lesson from the Holocaust.

A refugee is defined as an individual who has been forced to leave their country due to political or religious reasons, or due to threat of war or violence. There were 19.5 million refugees worldwide at the end of 2014, 14.4 million under the mandate of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), around 2.9 million more than in 2013. The other 5.1 million Palestinian refugees are registered with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). With the displacement of so many people, it is difficult to find countries willing to accept all the refugees. There are over 125 different countries that currently host refugees, and with this commitment comes the responsibility of ensuring these refugees have access to

Some may think the Syrian refugee crisis is not ongoing, but there are Syrian children being affected and dealing with the trauma of losing loved ones. Even if this conflict is in a different country, American citizens can still help. In the article Syrian refugee crisis: Facts to know, it states the severity of the problem issuing, “Civilians have been continually in harm's way, caught in the crossfire and charging front lines. Civilian infrastructure has been targeted, leading to mass civilian casualties, including women and children” (Johnson n.pag.). These people are getting wrongfully killed and are in a tough state of mind. They can barely leave their homes without being in a battlefield and in dangers way. Six years has been long enough,

This is the story of Dania, a ten year old Syrian refugee now living in Lebanon. She can still recall hours spent huddling in a hole in the ground that her father had dug for the family in times of artillery attack, as they crouched in the dirt covering their heads. She could hear the boom of cars exploding, as buildings and stores crumbled to the ground. Ever since the beginning of the Syrian Civil War three years ago, her life has not been the same. Her small school has been destroyed by explosions, and her uncle killed in a missile attack. By the summer of 2013 her family came face to face with the realities of war-- either die in Syria or risk everything by fleeing to Lebanon. To Dana’s family there was no choice, they had to flee. She has been living as a refugee in Lebanon ever since (Lewis).

How would a person feel living in a country they had been forced to immigrant to that is not their own? Syrian refugees have been forced to flee their Syrian homeland as a result of their unstable environment. These refugees must leave quickly, leaving all their possessions in search of a better life in other European countries. One of the countries that has granted asylum to many Syrian refugees is Germany, but the story does not end there for thousands of refugees upon their arrival. The day to day survival is difficult in a new country for adult refugees trying to support their families. Most struggle, desperate to get the necessary training in Germany to ascertain a well paying job. However another, almost forgotten group of refugees are the thousands of children who also fled their homeland countries and are not able to obtain a basic education. These families risked their lives on the perilous journey to European countries, only to find, they do not have the basic needs to support themselves and their families. According to Lori Robertson’s article Stretching Facts on Syrian Refugees, she explains how “The majority of refugees — 51.1 percent — are under age 17, including 38.5 percent who are younger than 12 years old.”(Robertson). However, three million Syrian children do not attend school on regular basis. Although many refugees have survived the harsh conditions on their journey to Germany, there needs to be an increase in the number of refugee children being
