United States Should Accept Syrian Refugees

Decent Essays
Today in America there are many things occurring that should be taken care of immediate. As a war is currently going on in Syria, many people including children have been forced to leave their country. These people are also known to be Syrian refugees. There has been debates in the United States on whether or not we should accept Syrian refugees because there might be a possibility that they might be related to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria also known as ISIS. ISIS has threatened the United State and has caused major damages. For example, ISIS took credit for the attack in Paris and California, where many innocent people were killed. For that matter, in this paper I will be discussing the reasons as to why the United States should not accept Syrian refugees. To begin, the United State has many …show more content…
For example, in the Paris attack we lost many innocents lives. In order to prevent any more attacks, we need to concentrate in taking care of the terrorist in the United States before allowing others to come in. It is true that not all refugees are associated with terrorism, but there is no certainty that they are not. Another example is the California attack, although we did not loose as many innocent lives as we did in Paris many were still affected. A large number of people living in the United State are afraid of where ISIS might strike next. As a result we would be helping these terrorist come into our land and cause damages if we allow Syrian refugees come to the United States.
Moreover, there are many other ways of helping the Syria refugees than just bringing them into the United States. For example, we can supply them with food, clothing, and protection in a camp in Syria. We can send men to protect these camps so that many lives can be saved. Thus, the United State would be saving innocents lives in the United State, and at the same time protecting these Syrian

    Today, the United States is encountering a major debate on whether or not they should let in more Syrian refugees. When the time comes for the United States to be asked as haven, the country 's actions and innactions addressing the problems behind and of the refugees, defnitely does go down in history. The United States has been seen as a "... world leader in recognizing the moral obligation to resettle refugees." So, once the county fails to meet expectations, the country is then questioned upon its title, and the world lay on its shoulders[1].

    History has repeated itself once again. This nation has witnessed atrocious acts from neighboring countries throughout its past and to this day it observes many disasters that are taking place. Not too long ago, hundreds of thousands of Jews faced the mass genocide of the Nazis, which in comparison to today’s crisis, Syrians are facing persecution from ISIL. Although the events took place in different time periods and have distinctive qualities, the American responses over refugees and persecutions of the critical situations that developed share similar patterns. It has not been a century since the Holocaust took place.…

    Equally, in Paris, France, three teams of terrorists attacked six locations killing 129 people, 353 wounded, and 99 people in serious condition. More than 31 states in America are protesting the entry of Syrian refugees because authorities revealed that one of the suspects involved in the attack of Paris, entered Europe by entering as a Syrian refugee. In other words, the majority of the United States are not willing to take in refugees because of the paranoia that a terrorist may be mixed in the group of refugees entering the United States. To sum up, terrorism creates panic,…

    That is a perfect justification for the United States to reject the refugees, considering one of them could be a terrorist, just as the refugee was in Europe. Despite the inhumanity, states that are not allowing refugees are smart and playing it safe out of respect and security for the country, a very respectable and perceptive decision. Of course America can claim that they will demand in depth background checks and allow the refugees in selectively. While this is reassuring, all people know how intelligent and scheming terrorists are in regards to their attacks, so even the guarantee of perfect background checks is not comforting…

    When we don’t let them in, it shows that Americans are afraid of what they are capable of, which boosts terrorist’s egos and leave us in fear. By letting the people come in, it not only benefits them, but America’s safety as well. The Islamic state isn’t as strong as claimed to be, but uses our fear in their advantage. In the article it states, “ Most attacks have actually been the acts of do-it-yourself terrorists, but Islamic State fighters don’t want us to know that. They want us to believe they’re everywhere.…

    In the United States there is resistance to accepting Syrian refugees, and this is based on political and social forces that are at work. Xenophobia is the term that is used to describe an irrational dislike or fear of people from other countries. If we look back in American history, there was an obvious irrational opposition to accepting European Jewish refugees in the 1930’s. Unfortunately, the United States, along with many other nations’ reluctance to accept European Jews had horrific consequences. There are some similarities between the historic European Jewish refugee crisis and the modern-day Syrian refugee crisis and it is important that many Jewish organizations have spoken out about accepting Syrian refugees because it is the Jewish community that probably understands the consequences of inaction better than…

    Introduction According to the U.S. Department of State, less than 2% of Syrian refugees are adult males capable of being combative. That’s a miniscule amount, but considering we have only taken in roughly 10,000 of them (which is only .0002% of Europe’s 4.8 million), we could be doing quite a bit more. Unfortunately, it’s not as simple as just letting millions of Syrian refugees in.…

    “From 1990 to 1995, an average of about 112,000 refugees arrived in the U.S. each year, with many coming from the former Soviet Union. However, refugee admissions dropped off to fewer than 27,000 in 2002 following the terrorist attacks in 2001.” (Krogstad) The U.S. didn’t want to let in nearly the amount refugees that they used to let in due to fear of what could happen if they let someone in that could harm other people. America should keep letting refugees in because they can give America an economic boost.…

    Despite those efforts, people still hold the belief of terrorists using the advantage of refugees migrate to other countries, as a way to plan more attacks. Therefore, many discriminations against particularly Muslims occur. We acknowledge that there are many bombings in the Middle East.

    As they flee from war and violence, Syrian refugees are trying to find better lives in other countries, whether it is temporary or permanent. Only recently has the refugee crisis been brought to people’s attention around the world, but it has been in existence since the Arab Spring in 2011. The Arab Spring brought about rebellion against Syria’s President al-Assad’s regime and Al-Assad fought back, creating a devastating civil war. Now, 4.6 million Syrians are seeking safe havens. Syria’s neighboring countries and some European have been the more accessible asylums.…
