If you were forced to leave your home and flee to another country because of terrorism, would you not want the people of that country to welcome you with open arms? Today, thousands of refugees in the Middle East are escaping the terrorism in their homelands to go to a free country such as the United States. These immigrants are avoiding terrorism because of what they have seen happen to others who were affected by the terrorists. An immigrant is someone who migrates to another country, usually for permanent residence and a terrorist is a person or a member of a group that uses or advocates terrorism. With the rise of Middle Eastern immigrants escaping terrorism, the people of the United States need to support the refugees in adjusting to

Allowing tens of thousands of Muslim refugees to enter the United States could compromise the security of Christians in the country, according to renowned evangelist Franklin Graham.

The Syrian refugee crisis started five years ago as anti-government demonstrations quickly escalated after government violent crackdown and rebels began to fight back the regime. Not only the civil war, endangering Syrians, but also Russian air strikes against ISIS targets in Syria prompting even more Syrians to flee for safety. One of the interchanging points in Europe, Lesbos island, becoming a huge refugee camp turning into the children's cemetery. As a matter of fact, last year 410 people went missing in addition 272 people drowned while crossing the sea most of them were children, babies who can't swim. This is equal to letting nearly 12 people to die every single week for five years just settle a peace and stop the bloody civil war. The number of dead keeps growing. An

The American way of helping those in need has been lost in the midst of terrorist attacks in a foreign country. The denying of Syrian refugees from coming into the United States has marked the decline of our hospitable ways. We are so fearful of a terrorist attack that the majority of Americans have went against the American way of helping by denying Syrian refugees access to the United States in their time of great need.

The Syrian refugee crisis started out as a local issue in the area. However, it became a national issue because of the deadly attacks in Syria. Two of our presidential candidates, Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton, hold extremely different point of views on this issue. Donald Trump indicated that none of the refugees are going to be accepted. In addition to that, he indicated that the current Muslims should have specific IDs and a specific database done for them. He claimed that bringing Syrian refugees would bring terrorists from various groups including ISIS. The issue of whether these refugees should be accepted or not became debatable mainly when the attacks happened in Paris. On the other hand, Hilary Clinton supported the idea of accepting

One of the longest-lasting refugee catastrophes in the world is the Palestinian Refugee Problem. This crisis has been ongoing for nearly seventy years now, since 1947-1948, and without resolve. This paper will examine the backdrop of what the Palestinians have had to face under Israeli occupation. The goals are to consider and review legal and rights-based complications with sources and evaluate other status issues that are inter-connected politically and internationally within the context of a refugee group. The Palestinians are a nation state that has not any real solution at hand, nor can they foresee resolution in the near future.

Refugees are individuals, who move out of one’s country due to restriction or fear to their lives. These individuals relocate out of necessity to flee political persecution, or a natural disaster has invaded and destroyed their home. For example, such fear of persecution may result from disputes due to war, religion or political opinion and usually will not allow individuals to return to one’s country.

For the “issue of importance” essay I chose to write about the current events concerning the Syrian Refugees. Refugees are people forced to leave their homeland because of war/ violence, poverty, natural disaster, or government corruption. The Civil War in Syria is affecting over 12 million Syrians; currently 4.6 million of them are refugees. At this point in time they are spread all over The Middle East, many desire to call the United States their place of refuge. However, many American leaders and citizens are opposed to the idea of allowing them to reside here. The Syrian Refugees desire to come to the states and other surrounding countries because to make a better life for themselves and their children. Many are vulnerable to sexual harassment

In southern Europe this year alone 103,000 refugees have crossed over the Mediterranean Sea and into Europe. That evens out to about roughly 600 refugees a day. Blowing last year’s total out of the park with a seemly tiny total of 34,000. The dramatic increases of refugees entering Europe have none the less added a very large burden on Europe’s migration troubles. Those 103,000 have risked their lives to be free from their home countries mainly on stolen, flimsy, and makeshift boats. In Greece alone 48,000 refugees have on the shores, the UNHCR is stepping up in Greece and southern Italy as a response to the population increase and the refugees arriving illegally. In late May in one weekend over 6,000 sub-Saharan Africans arrived on Italian shores from fishing boats and rubber dinghies from Libya, bringing the total refugees arriving in Italy to a large sum of 54,000.

The war in Syria has been going on for around four years, and now the Syrian refugees who have become homeless from the war have been hoping to be one of the four million other Syrians to be accepted into another country which leads me to the title of this article, "US plans to accept ten thousand Syrian refugees next year." This article falls mostly under a government issue because of the cost to allow the refugees to stay in the US. This article was reported on September 10, 2015.

However, what makes a person a refugee? According to the Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, a refugee is “A person who flees to a foreign country or power to escape danger or persecution.” The UNHCR, or the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugee, adds to this by stating “A refugee has a well-founded fear of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, political opinion or membership in a particular social group. Most likely, they cannot return home or are afraid to do so” (What is a Refugee). In other words a refugee is someone who enters a foreign nation to escape persecution or danger within their own, home nation. By referring to this definition, the escapees within the National Refugee Crises are no doubt adequate refugees

Today there are many things going on in the world however, today I am going to focus on the millions of people around the world having to flee their homes. These people are defined as refugees. According to dictionary.com a refugee is "a person who flees for refuge or safety, especially to a foreign country, as in time of political upheaval, war, etc." Right now there is something going on called the Refugee Crisis. This website does a very good job of explaining the refugee crisis. Millions of people are fleeing conflict in their own land and traveling over seas to other countries. This is called the refugee crisis because there are so many refugees. Because there are so many people some countries are closing there borders. It is difficult

During a refugee’s transition from his or her native country to America, there are protective and risk factors that affect them physically, mentally and emotionally. One risk factor discussed by Mr. Beshir the high expectations that one may have upon entering America (G. Beshir, personal communication, April 21, 2017). It seems that movies, television shows, and social media all depict the United States as a paradise without any social issues. However, it is evident that the States has its own issues in areas of homelessness, poverty, unemployment, crime, and hunger. The houses that are offered to refugee individuals and families are not the equivalent to the houses portrayed in movies and television

Is the U.S. considered anti-immigrant or just playing it safe? As you read these two accounts, you will come to find out that they both discuss the issue and hardships of refugees and war. A refugee is a person who has been forced to leave their country because of a natural disaster like the Holocaust or an ISIS attack. A big issue that is dicussed in these articles is the amount of refugees being let into the country.

Refugees and immigrants can struggle with one of the key factors in adaptation, which is language. Not knowing the language can make everyday life in their new country extremely difficult. One example is Til Gurung and his wife. They are refugees from Bhutan, and had an especially hard time with learning the language. Ha, from Inside Out and Back Again, by Thanhha Lai, also had a rough time with learning the new language. She struggled with trying to balance her old life and new life, and with that came the language challenge. Refugees and immigrants, such as Ha and Til Gurung, are troubled by not knowing the language of their new country, until they learn the language, and can successfully adapt to their new society.
