With the introduction of chemical warfare, a much greater risk is posed to neighboring friendly and partner countries in the region, particularly Israel, Jordan, Turkey, and Iraq. If the United States shows weakness towards Syria, or pulls back from its stance on the use of chemical weapons, the Assad regime could feel motivated to carry out more attacks, possibly outside of its immediate border. Any show of weakness would also embolden Syria to begin facilitating trade with local insurgent groups (Al-Qaeda, Hezbollah, etc…) that would then use the weapons against U.S. allies in the region. Each witness today has…
Many people are affected by the war in Syria, many people have had to move to different countries in order to have better lives for their families. In document A, it shows a pie graph about how many civilians died more than anyone. All Refugees fled to a nearby countries plus Europe but, the most popular was Turkey. In document C, it says how at least six people died in a wave of sectarian bloodshed in the central province of Homs, including three people whose…
For 6 years Syria has been at war with itself. In these 5-6 years many people have died. And many towns and cities left and ruined. The beginning of the fifth year of the war half a quarter million people have been killed. And over 10 million have been forced to leave their homes. And it all began with the actions of peaceful protestors. Which has cost the lives of 100,000 people and forced over two million to flee to the relative safety of neighboring countries. This conflict has captured the world’s attention because of the tactics employed by the president of Syria, Bashar al-Assad. Unarmed civilians were attacked and killed by government troops as they searched for the most effective and seemingly brutal method for quelling this uprising. Now there are some US politicians, who feel that it is the duty of our country to get involved militarily, but this with two wars already fought the past ten years, there seems to be little to no public support for this type of move. The United States is not the world’s policeman and should let countries solve their own problems.…
The latest few decades are associated with the baby boom. Every year more than half a million people begin to look for a job. Without doubt, it is impossible to provide so many people with the new workplaces. For that reason, the problem of unemployment is become more and more urgent. Millions of people require a job, as they need to support their families. When you do not have a stable income, you become angry and dissatisfied with your life. I suppose, this factor is one of the most considerable ones when we speak about the Syrian Civil War. It is not a secret that people are ready to use firearms when they cannot change their life in a legal…
At the end of and following the Civil War, three amendments to the constitution were proposed and ratified: the 13th (1865), 14th (1868), and 15th (1870). These amendments are commonly known as the Reconstruction amendments and are also called Civil War amendments, Civil Rights amendments, or Equality amendments.…

There are four main levels of analysis Global, Interstate, Domestic, and Individual. A factor at the domestic level would be the Syrian crisis as a whole. There is a civil war going on in Syria between people with different political beliefs. The conflict is between those loyal to the government and those seeking oust it. Looking from a global level of analysis Syria has many terrorist groups that could break out and endanger Syria and the rest of the globe. Looking at Syria from an interstate level of analysis Syria boundaries are connected Lebanon Israel, Iraq, and Jordan. These are all Arabic stated but they all speak different languages and have a many different religious beliefs. Because of all these small countries are clustered on top of each other and none get along because off all the difference they have weather it religious or fighting for the rights of land that they once owned could lead to interstate wars like it already has. Looking from an Individual level of analysis power hungry and crazy leader Bashar al –Assad was ruthless towars the people of Syria not providing them with enough food or water to survive, leaving them with nothing, Syrians to try to attempt to overthrow him.…
The Syrian Refugee Crisis is certainly a hot-button issue today. It has been the subject of major political debate in the last federal election, with many criticising the Conservative Government for its slow speed, lack of commitment, and alleged cherry-picking attitude towards refugee resettlement. The Liberal Party, meanwhile, capitalized on the emotional atmosphere following the release of the photograph of the Syrian child, Alan Kurdi, dead on a Turkish beach; they pledged to bring in 25,000 Syrian refugees to Canada by the end of 2015 if elected (Levitz 2016). Comments have been made by figures from both sides of the political spectrum, some deeply emotion while others racists or prejudiced. The public has raised numerous fears, both rational and irrational, of terrorism, burdens on the welfare system, and a rise in cultural and racial tensions. Even the American Senate got involved, with senators claiming that terrorists would enter Canada as refugees then infiltrate the United States, a claim that has later been debunked (Panetta 2016).…

If one ever sees a child getting injured by the bullies, their first instinct should be protecting the child from the bullies and the harm. Not only they are protecting the child, you treat the injuries on them. This is similar case happened when Syrian Civil War broke out in 2011, killing and hurting many of the civilians. To avoid the worst-case scenarios, many Syrians are escaping from their homes, where many other countries are welcoming them to their new homes for safety. Although many believe that United States should not allow Syrian refugees, but it is very clear that United States allow them because it is more capable of taking the refugees, since they are more economically, socially, and politically stable than other countries and…
This political cartoon was made to inform the American citizens about Trump’s tax reform. We know it regards Trump’s political reform due to the short speech he says, and we know it is Trump due to his dress which represents the one he had during his political campaign. The audience are the American citizens and we deduce this because the tax reform is done for the American. The political cartoon is made to underline how the tax reform will not help the middle class but the rich part of the population. We know this due to the contrast between the word “lie” and Trump’s short speech. The format is a political cartoon. It is political due to its theme, the tax reform, and it is a cartoon due to how it presents itself in an exaggerative sort of ironic and criticising way.…
The cartoon is based on the terrorist group, ISIS, who are taking advantage of the Syrian refugees, that our country has denied entrance too. The Syrians are being asked to join ISIS as a way to get back at America for not allowing them sanctuary. ISIS is using this opportunity to feed into the hatred towards Americans. Many refugees are being turned away and denied entrance to the United States because of speculation that the refugees could be spies. In this political cartoon the author, Gary Markstein, successfully transmits the idea that refusing Syrian refugees gives ISIS the opportunity to find new recruits which proves to be effective.…
Would you ever allow an individual who you’ve never met or known what their intentions are into your home? Some people see this relate this example to the Syrian refugee issue that America is facing at the time. It has been widely debated as to whether or not the United States should allow ten thousand Syrian refugees into this country to vanish from war and brutal events in their home country. Over the past few years, over 11 million Syrian civilians have been forced to leave and flee from their homes because of the civil war broke out in that country. Individuals as well as families, are attempting to make their way into the United States with hopes of resettling and escaping the…
It is due to his actions that one of the worst civil wars seen in history is unfolding. In 2011, pro-democracy protests surfaced in Syria after the detaining and torturing of a group of teenagers who painted revolutionary slogans on a school wall. Immediately, the people of Syria demanded the resignation of al-Assad. Machiavelli wrote that subjects should either be loved or crushed. However, he also mentioned that rulers should “avoid being hated by every one, and when they cannot compass this, they ought to endeavour with the utmost diligence to avoid the hatred of the most powerful.” He should have resigned as the people demanded him too or peacefully respond to an initially peaceful protest. Assad had brought unnecessary hatred on himself when he chose to quell the Syrian protests and crisis the way he did. For example, it is presumed that Assad gassed his own civilians in Ghouta in 2013. Additionally, since the beginning of the civil war, Assad has been releasing terrorist prisoners to delegitimize the movement. Thus, the Assad regime has lost one of the most important aspects according to Machiavelli—the support of the people. Moreover, Machiavelli specifically warned against the introduction of foreign powers. Assad has allowed what started as a civil war to a sectarian war between the Shiites and the Sunnis and a proxy war…
What is the most attractive thing you can find in a newspaper? I guess your answer might be the political cartoon in the last page! Lots of people find that the most interesting and eye-catching part of a newspaper is the political cartoon which sums up all the words in a simple picture which might give more than a whole article would. ―according to Jonathan Burack "Political cartoons are vivid primary sources that offer intriguing and entertaining insights into the public mood, the underlying cultural assumptions of an age, and attitudes toward key events or trends of the times"(Lawate,2). Never has this quote been more true than it is today in Egypt for the wealth of visual rhetoric there is so much out there because the situation in Egypt has so much to comment on whether it is politically, socially, or economically. Through the use of pathos and persuasive techniques such as irony as exaggeration , the cartoonist, Latuff, is trying to point out the indifference of the Egyptian president towards his country while he is giving more care to Palestine . since the start of Morsi's reign, he has been criticized for trying to help Palestine rather than focusing on the problems of his country. (Lawate, Importance of a political cartoon in a newspaper,2)…
