In the past four to five months, I have been writing about the Syrian conflict and everything revolving around it, from Daesh to Muslims in America. It has been a long journey and an educational one as well. It has really opened up my eyes to all of the conflicts going around in the world, […]
Ground Troops in Syria
Early yesterday, Saudi Arabia said that they are willing to send ground troops into Syria. They are prepared to send in troops to fight Daesh only if the United States agrees to their offer. In the past two years, Saudi Arabia has been sending air strikes into Syria to weaken Daesh. But this is the […]
Turkey Send Aid
Earlier today, Turkey sent in ambulances and aid trucks into Aleppo, Syria. These trucks were sent in to help tens of thousands of people that have fled their homes because of the increased air strikes and assaults that the government has been committing on the many villages in the area. Aleppo is currently rebel controlled […]
How People React To Putting People To Numbers
I really hate the reaction people get when you put a large number to people. If I were to say two people were shot down the street from you, you would think I gave you tragic news and react accordingly. But when many news sources say that hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of people have […]
Daesh Suicide Bombing

Refugee Crisis Sumarized

A Syrians Perspective
Syria, my father’s birth country, is burning right now. It has been described as hell on earth by its inhabitants. To quote The Atlantic, “The Syrian Civil War is arguably the worst humanitarian crisis since the Second World War, with over a quarter million killed, roughly the same number wounded or missing, and half of Syria’s […]
Geneva Talks
In the past years, ever since the Syrian Revolution started, their have been many attempts at peace talks as well as seize fires. But none of these attempts had succeeded, hence the use of the word attempts. Just the past couple of days, their have been peace talks at Geneva between Syrian delegates and UN special envoy Staffan […]
Jordanians on Refugees
Jordan has been taking a lot of the heat from Syrian Refugees. Jordan is the third to the top in the amount of refugees it has taken in. The number of “registered” refugees is at a high number of 633,466, but their is an even higher number of an estimated 1,400,000 unregistered Syrians in Jordan that […]
