The Pros And Cons Of France's War Against ISIS

Improved Essays
There is a possible chance of world war three; should the U.S. help prevent this or come in later after many casualties? France has officially declared war against ISIS after they were attacked in Paris. The U.S. has dealt with terrorism before and even drove out Al-Qaeda in the past which is where ISIS originated from. If the United States fought terrorist before they should do it again. The U.S. should take immediate action and go to war against ISIS especially if even France, whose normally peaceful, is going to war. The U.S. president doesn 't want to go to war against ISIS. France asked the U.S. for help in fighting against ISIS but president Obama thinks it would be a mistake. "French president Francois Hollande on Monday called for the United states and Russia to join his …show more content…
Anonymous is helping eliminate any ISIS propaganda which would hopefully weaken the terrorist organization. "Responding to the Paris attacks, hacker collective anonymous has declared war against ISIS by launching what they call their biggest operation against the militant group."(Tara John) America calls ISIS criminals but they are doing more to help France than America. That can damage America 's reputation. It 's like if you say someone 's a bad person then they do something better than you like saving someone from a fire. It makes them the hero and you are looked down on for thinking bad about them. If America does not go to war against ISIS it will damage America 's reputation. Anonymous claims that they want to help protect people 's freedom and they back up their intentions by helping the world stop ISIS. If America doesn 't help France in the war against ISIS but Anonymous does and America continues to label Anonymous as criminals then Americas reputation would fall. If that happens it would not only have other countries view us badly but the American people from within will not take their government less

    This is because the article states that without help from the U.S. the world could not successfully attack ISIS conventionally, which would then lead to more wars. Which, as previously stated, shows that a reason to be involved in world affairs is to stop wars and future wars . In summary, the U.S. is needed in world affairs because the U.S. is powerful and can stop future and present wars and bring balance to…

    If the United does not deal with the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria swiftly and efficiently, the result may be another world war. The United Nations cannot deal with this threat to international security peacefully because while their end goal to create their own state is admirable, their means to accomplish it are not. The recent attack on Paris is just one of their crimes. The ends do not justify the means, no matter what one believes. In addition, they took advantage of a country's crisis to pursue their goals.…

    I disagree with this because not being involved in everything isn’t the worse thing ever, it can actually improve our reputation. It will create more allies for the U.S and not make us seem like threats that power hungry people need to take over. The U.S will be more liked in general and not as hated and when the time comes for war again they will have allies to aid them in battle. To wrap this statement up, I know the U.S shouldn’t isolate themselves from the whole world, but sometimes it’s best to let other nations hash things out…

    During the ten year Afghan War with Russia, the United States supported rebels opposing communism by providing weapons, funding and training. These rebels would later form a highly organized and well trained group led by Osama Bin Laden to fight for his ideals of an independent Islamic state. George Bush promised American citizens retribution and started the global campaign on terror. Although we significantly disrupted Al Qaeda from 2001 to 2011, our actions and the implementation of a democratic state fueled the rise of ISIS. Four weeks ago ISIS coordinated attacks in Paris, which has been recorded as one of the worst terrorist attacks on French soil.…

    If we take away their territory, they cease to be a caliphate, a tempting argument for the US to intervene in the situation. But, as Wood mentioned in his article ISIS wants the US to invade. That would bolster recruitment and radicalize Muslims worldwide, which is a strong argument against intervention. I strongly believe ISIS may become a victim of its own success. It’s only a matter of time before this mass of poor people with high expectations confronts economic deprivation, discontent, and a reduction in the number of believers immigrating to the…

    Now, though the U.S. is finally becoming more conservative in their involvement, they are obligatorily involved in the ISIS mayhem. In 1953, the United States made the mistake of beginning Middle-Eastern involvement by placing a western-friendly Shah in Iran. The author of the history.com article, “Iran Hostage Crisis”, explains how after the democratically elected Prime Minister of Iran announced that he was going to nationalize Iran’s oil economy, the United States felt the need to selfishly step in. The author states, “In response to these policies, the American C.I.A. and the British Intelligence Service devised a secret plan to overthrow Mossadegh and replace him with a leader who would be more receptive to Western interests.”…

    Imagine another terrorist attack as traumatic as 9/11, the U.S. might have the greatest military power in the history of the world, but threats and attacks like those on 9/11 are always a concern to the U.S. and its allies. Terrorist attacks are a real threat because they are hard to prevent, they are carefully planned and carefully executed. ISIS is the largest and most powerful terrorist the U.S. has ever dealt with.

    The American foreign policy has changed over time has reflected the change in its national interest. The American foreign policy is a major issue for the people today is because the terrorists just attacked Paris and over a hundred citizens were killed in the aftermath. Therefore, the United States was debating on whether that they should declare war on Isis; however, for the Congress claims that they should become neutral and don’t start a war. The reason why the Congress doesn’t want to start a war with Isis is because if the United States were to declare war on them it will only provoke more terrorists in the country, and also the problem will solve on its own.…

    Getting involved internationally only to be unethical can be worse for our image than not getting involved at all. An example of this is our involvement in the Iraq war and the Prisoner of War camps at Abu Ghraib. Although we were involved for the purpose of the “War on Terror”, this became a scandal in which US soldiers engaged in what President George W. Bush called an “alternative set of procedures” (CITATION). They were really ghastly incidents of torture on innocent Iraqi citizens (CITATION, MOVIE). The photos exposed inhumane actions taken against prisoners of war.…
