The United States ' Responsibility, Isis Can Not Be Stopped Alone

65). Syrian’s that are stuck in refugee camps or still living in Syria are fighting for the freedom from authority that they did not agree to, the war has killed over 220,000 people and displaced half of the country’s population (GIlsinan, 2015). The states thus far have responded to the many facets of this crisis with very realist approaches via military action. Realists will tend to prioritize power and place it above and separate from morality and ideology, basing their arguments on tradition and focusing on the power to be gained or lost in the situation (Goldstien, 56). Are force and fraud the most reasonable types of action (Suth, Elias 2007), where is the morality; “More than a third of Americans want to ban Muslims from entering the United states” (Hayoun 2015, The independent). It appears that realism is winning the war against idealism in the US - realism is pessimistic and cynical towards life and human nature, thus there is no hope for a good end of human kind (Najob, Hamed, Gandomikal 2015). One possible motivation of the American people to adopt this very pessimistic and realist way of looking at the crisis and the Muslim population as a whole, is they might assume that liberalist approaches, with its theories in moral reasoning, may

A modern issue that is affecting our nation is the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria also known as ISIS. ISIS is noted to be a terrorist group that has caused many attacks against the United States of America and many other countries. Their goal is to build a caliphate state (Pierpaoli, 2015). ISIS uses “persecution and extermination” to those who enter its territories or go against them. This is a problem because ISIS is currently a threat to the United States. The people affected by this problem are the citizens of the U.S. the people in the Middle East, and their allies, France and

America is our home so we need to take care of it. If we don´t respect and care for our country, it will fall apart. We need to be responsible and make decisions that help our country become the best it can be rather than hinder it. I believe that it is our responsibility to follow the laws set in our constitution and follow our own morals.

President Obama stated in his Anti-Terror Strategy address, "We continue to face a terrorist threat. We cannot erase every trace of evil from the world, and small groups of killers have the capacity to do great harm. That was the case before 9/11, and that remains true today” (Obama).The Middle East today is composed of very complicated religious tensions, unstable states, and rising terrorist organizations. The collapse of central governments and the rise of powerful non-state actors breed problems that foreign powers and the world’s only superpower, simply should begin to address. Many argue that the involvement in the Middle East is not our problem and that it will only cause our national debt to increase. As human beings we must began to realize the crimes against humanity occurring in the region and ask ourselves one question, can we truly turn a blind eye to the hundreds of innocent people dying and at what cost? The United States of America must get involved in the Middle East to ensure justice is achieved and maintained. Our interference will decrease the chances of terrorist attacking U.S. soil, and our military involvement will save the lives of many innocent citizens caught up in the turmoil. The United States must protect its interests and allies in the region. America stands for freedom, justice, and dignity; we must take a stand to defend ourselves and those in need, if we truly want to uphold the

Misunderstanding that each homegrown radicalized individual should be treated the same, will affect investigation process, and response efforts

The issue in the article “What should the U.S. do about ISIS? Show Sunnis we care” by Charles Lister is “How should the United States respond to ISIS.” Proof of this issue can be found in Lister’s writing. In the first paragraph he states that the United States cannot defeat ISIS militarily. The U.S. must help improve the sociopolitical issues in the Middle East. These two statements answer the issue I put forth. The second and third paragraphs discuss how ISIS has not only attracted foreigners to fight in its jihad; it has also befriended the oppressed Sunni Muslims. The Sunnis, consequently, are allowing ISIS to work freely in their territory. Paragraph three asks the question are the Sunnis still loyal to their country, or are they only loyal to their religion

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

The recent terrorist attacks by ISIS have without question reignited the debate over whether ISIS is a threat to the United States. I believe this question easily answers itself. Eighty two Americans have been accused of helping the Islamic states. While out of those eighty two people thirty two asserted to carry out an attack on American territory. However, twenty eight actually went through with it and took action on carrying out their plan. Only five were in contact with the Islamic states while planning their attacks. Even though most of the attackers were not in direct contact with ISIS while planning these attacks, their actions were influenced by the belief that they are doing it for ISIS.

During the round table discussion, I learned many things about what’s really going on with Isis and the possible results of this terrorism. Some things I absorbed from Isis consist of how they want to try and pick a fight with everyone around them and how they are trying to make the end of times occur. The roots of terrorism goes back centuries. Some professors stated that Isis is only trying to get America’s undivided attention by doing all of this unnecessary damage. Dr. Parker claimed that they have enticed the use of social media to inflict fear upon the American population, and those around them. President Obama claimed in a speech that Isis had been contained, and then they attacked Paris which brought complete surprise upon everyone

The Yazidi were systematically targeted by ISIS in a violent campaign to “purify” the region from non-Islamic influences. The genocide sparked interest in multiple large countries while organizations spread awareness. The United States has been a large influence in the country of Iraq in hopes of protecting the Yazidi people from more harm until a plan is made to stop the attacks made by ISIS. During the presidency of Barack Obama, attacks were authorized to protect Yazidi people, Americans and Iraqi minorities. Despite the attack President Obama guaranteed that no troops would be sent for combat. On August 9th, the USA sent 9 airstrikes; with these airstrikes the US airdropped 3,800 gallons of water and 16,128 MREs (Washington Post). The

"CAN ISIS Be Stopped...” depicts that it is going to take much more than just an army to defeat ISIS from the terror that they spread with their violence (Brown 8+).Through sophisticated social media programs targeting disaffected Muslims around the globe, ISIS has attracted thousands of recruits worldwide--including an estimated 4,000 Westerners, about 250 of them American (Brown 8+). The U.S. must rekindle with longtime rivals, such as Russia, and other countries to stop this jihadist military group (Brown 8+). The one thing word leaders will agree upon is that ISIS must be stopped! ISIS is only growing in power which makes them more of a threat (Brown 8+). The terrorist group has already began takeover of parts of Syria and Iraq as a step

It’s very disturbing that every time we turn on news channel, we hear how many people died around world due to religious extremist. No one more would be more happy than muslims who like to see ISIS defeated. Religion is always meant to on preach peace but some radical islamist are making everyone’s life hostile and furious. There are so many reasons which can prove that muslims should not be blame for ISIS terrorism such as muslims are the largest victims of ISIS, extremist has no religion and muslims are very forefront of combating terrorism.

In November, terrorists connected to Al-Qaeda stormed an upscale Malian hotel and left 21 people dead. Earlier this month, the Islamic State (IS)-allied Boko Haram group bombed two marketplaces in Nigeria with over 50 fatalities. The US’s missionary zeal to impose democracy on tribal societies has again backfired, a story replayed across the Middle East after the so-called “Arab spring” of 2011.

ISIS is currently a substantial threat to the Iraqi people as well as globally. The Iraqi politician and Human Rights Minister of Iraq Mohammed Shia' Al Sudani states that "ISIS is not just an Iraqi phenomenon, but it is a transnational phenomenon that poses an imminent danger to all countries of the world, it defies all human rights principles and international law," (Moore, "Isis Declared 'Global Threat' as UN Mulls Emergency 'War Crimes' Investigation") The reason why this is now becoming an international threat is because ISIS has been able to grow quickly due to the fact that they are able to effortlessly obtain fighters from across the globe. ISIS was able to accomplish this through the use of social media by acquiring popularity within

ISIS is one of America’s current top concerns to this day. It has invaded into many of the Islamic states, taking over the churches and overpowering Al-Qaeda, and suppressing many religions in that region. There are many problems that this causes to arise in the U.S government, one of which is that ISIS is steadily taking over and controlling oil drills and other mineral plants causing the price of them to go up back here in the U.S. There are many other economies around the world that this is also affecting.
