Thousands of Syrians are trying to escape their government and the terrorist group ISIS. Many wonder why we should let refugees in America, or why any country should allow them. But if Syrian’s cannot come to the land of the free, why should any foreigners come? Syrians have just as many reasons to be in America as anyone else. For example, the education, children’s hunger and freedom. 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 …show more content…
This percentage is higher than Americas. Razan’s oldest son, Suleiman, has taught himself graphic design by watching YouTube videos, and he is already working. Also, Sarah, her oldest daughter wants to study English Literature. This is yet another clear reason for Syrians to come to America. With these opportunities for refugees, it offers more jobs and money for the U.S. and the employment rate. Did you know that the inventors of Google and Intel are refugees? A refugee from Communist Hungary, Andy Grove, is the founder of Google. He also is a Russian born son from the Soviet Union. However, some argue that all terrorist are coming to attack America. Americans believe this is because of the attacks on the Twin Towers building on 9/11. Eighteen of the 19 terrorist involved in the 9/11 attacks held over 30 valid identification cards from 5 different states, according to, WTF, an upcoming book by Larry Benson and Andy Bulhoz. What we Americans fail to recognize is 748,000 refugees have resettled since the 9/11 attacks in New York City. Therefore, it is plain to see that it is very small percentage of the attacks taking
People all over the world have been asking themselves if it is right for their country to let in refugees from Syria. It is a question everybody fears from answering because of the consequences it may take. Several states in America have denied the entry because of security reasons and the over population. Even if there are several countries still refusing Syrians there are a few who are accepting them. Looking at some articles, I’ve seen differential opinions and one must read and understand why Syria refugees need a chance to be rescued from all the chaos and horror they’ve been through.
Many U.S. citizens have no problem with Syrian refugees coming to America. According to both “Why America Could-and Should-Admit More Syrian Refugees.” and “Our Responsibility to Refugees”, The authors feel that The people of the United States are turning their backs on the refugees. In “Why America Could-and Should-Admit More Syrian Refugees.” the author says, “The United States has resettled over three million refugees, offering victims of persecution and conflict the opportunity to build a new life. Refugee resettlement is unequivocally safe. It would be wrong, both morally and politically, to curtail Syrian refugee resettlement, and why it is in fact both ethically imperative and politically expedient to instead expand U.S. commitment to refugee resettlement” (Long). This author sees nothing to fear from refugees. Furthermore, the writer of “Our Responsibility to Refugees” states, “The U.S. can do more and we must. Since 2011, more than 4.2 million Syrians have been displaced by war and violence, and fewer than 3,000 of them have resettled in the U.S. President Barack Obama has committed to resettling 10,000 Syrian refugees in the U.S. His administration needs to
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.
The debate about letting Syrian Refugees into America has been a heavily debated topic in the last year. One surprising fact is that, ‘The third largest city in the country of Jordan, Za’atari is just a refugee camp filled with Syrians escaping the Syrian Civil War and the population of Za’atari of 90,000.’ Syrians should be let into our county because: we have been letting Syrian Refugees into our country a very few have been of them have been radicalized and carried out terrorist attacks on our country, U.S. states cannot legally reject and deport Syrian Refugees coming here to seek refuge without the approval of the federal government, and not all the Syrian Refugees fit the supposedly true stereotypes
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.
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
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.
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.
The decision on whether to deny or accept the entry of refugees into America has been a controversial issue in today’s current events. Many American citizens have resolved to heated conflicts when expressing their differing opinions on whether the refugee policy should be revised or not. Refugees should be welcomed into America with open arms, but there must be a limit on the number of these refugees seeking asylum that can enter the country in order to save the economy.
America is the one of the most famous country in the world. Peoples from different countries visits and lives with their families. Eleven million Syrians have fled their homes since civil war broke out in 2011.Some of the syrian might be innocent and they have right to live their new life.Syria should not allowed to united states because they might harm or make other people's angry.Syria should be ban to come to america.
Syrian refugees should not be allowed into the United States.we already have many immigrants coming in legally and illegally. The United States already has an overflow of the population and we still have problems that we have not fixed, so why should we fix the Syrian’s problem. We have no idea if the Syrians will attack us or not, once they get into our country, they will also have a possibility to take our jobs.
In summary, we as a free country should welcome Syrian refugees into sanctuary. Giving those children a fighting chance to become something extraordinary and provide hope for all of mankind. Why not give a shattered population of people an opportunity to live as civilized humans? If given the chance, why not show those injured souls that there is more to life. Human life is delicate. So why take it for
Allowing Syrian refugees to enter the United States would not be a good idea. There are proofs of a flawed screening process, a threat of potential terrorism, setbacks to the economy, and a danger towards public safety. Until the government improves its vetting processes, and stabilizes the economy, the admissions of Syrian refugees in the United States needs to be suspended. Even one in thousands have the ability to cause a
An individual group named ISIS has been leading terrorist attacks throughout many countries. They are a group of extremists practicing their belief of world domination. In 2011, They attacked Syria which led to many Syrians to flee their country. They have now become the largest group of refugees. Since then the United States has allowed about 1,500 refugees to enter the country. After the attack on Paris by ISIS, many governors have refused the resettlement of Syrian refugees in their state. The United States should stop allowing Syrian refugees as it increases the endangerment to the nation’s citizens.
The abundance of Syrian immigrants has been a controversial topic due to the recent activity regarding terrorists. Many countries, such as United States and some European countries, choose not to accept these Syrian refugees because of the predispositions they have towards them. These countries fear terrorism, causing them to block off these people from entering their country. However, the concerns held by these countries are wildly blown out of proportion in accordance to the actual threat that refugees pose. The Syrian migrants should be welcomed in US and Europe because of following reasons: the stereotypes that people have on these foreigners are absurd, these people must be protected from outside forces, and their lifestyle is harmless.
