US Should Accept Syrian Refugees

Regardless of what the United States government ultimately decides to do, it is important to stay open minded in drastic times like these. By attempting to remove the stereotype refugees have to carry around with them, assessing which countries we want to be associated with, and working to help those in need while keeping the security of American citizens in-tact-- America will be playing a very beneficial role in helping refugees acquire

The U.S need to be more flexible with those who are being really affected. Since the violence towards those who are innocent can be shown in document #2 that shows, a little boy who was in the middle of the airstrike in Syria. The image of him, bloodied and covered with dust, sitting in an ambulance awaiting help. I think those are that kind of people that should be admitted into the U.S as refugees. Because they are that ones that are being most affected and can do nothing about it because they are children.

Why should the United States not accept Syrian refugees? Not every Syrian is a terrorist, most of them really need help. Because of the civil war in Syria, a major genocide is happening. People are leaving their homes for a better life where they can be safe and economically stable. I think that the United States should accept Syrian refugees in because they have been dealing with inequality, they also have a good work ethic that at a lot of Americans do not have which can benefit the country, and the United States is a country where a lot of people migrate so why not let the Syrian refugees in since they need to.

In 1944, former president Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an executive order forming the War Refugee Board. As briefly explained by ushmm.org, “the Board is responsible for devising and carrying out programs for the rescue and relief of victims of Nazi persecution.” During World War II, the United States help settle refugees who couldn’t be in their own country because of the war. This was a great thing to do and shaped the future we live in today. Letting Jewish refugees into the United States “was a turning point in American immigration policy and established a precedent for later refugee crises,” according to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.What is happening today with refugees is no different than what happened in the past. The Washington Post uploaded an article January of this year stating “If the order is enacted, among those immediately affected would be potential immigrants and visitors from seven

Is it our moral responsibility to take in Syrian refugees? Right now the biggest refugee crisis since the Second World War is taking place. Around 6.5 million Syrian have been displaced due to a terrorists group called ISIS. While countries throughout Europe have taken in around 500,000-1,000,000, America has only taken in 1,578. Which brings up the debate as to whether or not America should take in more Syrian refugees. America should take in more Syrian refugees because it can increase our economy, repair relations with Muslims in America and it’s our moral responsibility.

Four years ago, a civil war erupted in Syria after President Assad’s security forces fired into a group of peaceful protester, killing several of them (Syria), and starting a conflict that has rocked the stability of the world today. Now, as we go into the beginning of 2016, the world faces a refugee crisis unlike any other, and pressure is being put on many of the the world powers to give Syrian refugees a safe haven inside their countries. However, with taking in these refugees comes risk. America has always been a beacon for immigrants of all races and ethnicities for ages, but with the rise of a new terrorist group, with an obvious vendetta against America, the United States is having a difficult time determining whether or not it is safe to let these refugees into the country. Americans are faced with a decision. We can close ranks and turn helpless people away out of fear, leaving them to die or suffer some other unknown horrible fate, or we can put our fear aside and embrace these people with open yet cautious arms.

The U.S. should let Syrian refugees in the United States to settle, but only a select few. According to Elizabeth McBride, a writer for NBC.com, Razan is a mom of a family of four from Damascus. Her family left after their youngest son, Ibrahim, witnessed his father getting killed in a protest against the Syrian government. Looking at this example, it becomes clear that some Syrians

The issue of whether or not allowing the Syrian refugees continue to enter the United States have became a popular issue after the terrorist attack in Paris on November 13th. In my opinion, I think U.S should still remain allowing the Syrian refugees to start a new life in America. Following two reasons can best explain my point of view.

With the recent events around the world involving a terror group named ISIS, many have been affected. In Paris, many were killed during a concert which struck terror around the world. A total of 129 people perished and hundreds were wounded. Millions of Syrian refugees have been trying to escape and come to the United States for their own personal safety. Over the past 4 years, over 2000 refugees have been allowed into the country. In an attempt to increase the safety of the refugees, the U.S. has pledged to allow 10,000 more Syrians over the next year. It has become a controversial topic because citizens of the United States believe letting in the refugees is a mistake. Some incredulous citizens believe letting in refugees will cause more

Since 2011, more than 250,000 people have been killed in the Syrian civil war. Millions of other Syrians are searching for a secure home. America could provide a home to these Syrians if they were well prepared and funded. Taking in Syrian refugees would have no help to Syria, be dangerous for American citizens and be an extremely ignorant move, considering we are not prepared for almost 50,000 refugees. Syrian refugees should not be allowed into America.

After facing the unfortunate and tragic terrorist attacks in Paris. The main question is, should the United States take and accept the 10,000 Syrian refugees? I highly believe that we should accept the 10,000 Syrian refugees into the United States. President Obama has urged the U.S to welcome these refugees, I think that letting the refugees come into the state will not decrease the safety of the U.S and will definitely not bring us in possible danger. This is a question of human rights, I believe all humans deserve the right to live without the constant threat of death. This should not be an issue and we should accept all people with open arms. The decision to eliminate the acceptance of the refugees is very controversial, and if the U.S was to accept the migrants I think they should be taken to a certain

There are many moral reason America has to help the Syrian refugees. Niskanen Center.org stated, “ During World War II, the U.S. turned away Jews due to security concerns. We sent shiploads back to the camps because we were scared that Nazi spies

Many Syrians became refugees after the terrorist group ISIS appeared in their country. In fact, 1 million out of 28 million Syrians are refugees. One out of fifty refugees are thought to be members Syrians coming into Texas. Refugees need help and I believe that we are obligated to give it to them because we are humans.

While some believe there could be a potential risk to Americans' security, Syrian refugees should be accepted into the United States because the civil war is killing millions of people, the survivors are living in bad conditions, and because it is simply inhumane and unethical to send them away.

Conclusively, we should let Syrian Refugees in America because the ISIS group is destroying their home country and they need a safe one. If they don't get in, what would they do? Absolutely nothing if Americans don't do anything about it! You can save them too, make sure to support the Syrians and don't be one of these people that are anti-immigrant. If you are a Syrian Refugee, good
