The war in Syria
has become one of the most controversial issues in the modern world, and mainly
because of its beginnings, divisions between major political parties in the
United States have been developed. The Syrian war has brought with it huge
human casualties, and although it was expected that it would be completed quickly
like the Libyan War, thanks to the support of the United States and its allies,
the war is currently continuing. This situation has left a lot of doubt among
both the Democrats and the Republicans about whether it was reasonable for the
United States primarily to participate in the Syrian conflict.
When President
Obama announced his intention to attack Syria after what was allegedly the use
of the Syrian government's chemical weapons against its own people, the PPS, it
is expected that there will be that wide gap between the two sides in Congress.
However, this was not so, because in a rare demonstration of unity between
Republicans and Democrats, it was widespread to resist any airstrikes against
the Syrian government or direct participation of the United States in the
conflict. The fact that there was widespread opposition to the United States
Participation in Syria on both sides is a true statement about the sensitivity
to this issue of the American that the public feels. In the rare case of unity,
representatives of both sides seem to have almost unanimously chosen to
represent the true feelings of their constituents, who are mostly tired of the
war. In fact, the polls showed that the United States should stop concentrating
on solving external conflicts and instead focus on solving a growing number of problems
in the domestic arena.
Despite the
seeming unity of the two sides with regard to Syria, the fact is that the
United States government does not have a clear policy towards Syria, and this
may be the reason that the conflict lasted for the past two years. This
conflict has, however, also created a situation where it has become difficult
for the United States to deal with the diverse consequences such as the
development of the refugee problem. It is more likely than not that the
continuation of the Syrian conflict will create a refugee problem, as Syrian
refugees seek to settle in the United States. The fact that Syrian refugees
will likely continue seeking asylum in the United States has become a worrying
subject in both parties and this is likely to be another issue which will unite
the Democrats and the Republicans in a bipartisan way. In addition, the Syrian
war has caused US allies in the region, Turkey and Jordan to have such as the
influx of refugees that has created a sad situation in these countries. The
fact that Democrats and Republicans, despite having been proven that they can
work together, have not yet come up with a clear policy towards Syria, is the
most alarming. The United States Congress must exert pressure on the government
so that it creates a clear policy that will put an end to the Syrian conflict
that will provide lasting peace for the Syrian people.
Both the
Democrats and the Republicans believe that the Assad regime lost its mandate to
rule the Syrian people, and because of this, it must go. It has been a standing
position of both of these parties since the onset of the conflict. However,
because of the changes of the status on the ground due to Russian and Iranian
intervention has led to a situation where it is essential to come to an
accommodation. The latter step would an extremely important one because it
would curb the number of internally displaced persons in the country, but the
number of refugees in neighboring countries creating similar situations to
those that failed states the situation.
However, the
United States has only been indirectly involved in Syria. This process has
involved the government, supported by the Democrats, working to support the
Syrian rebels in providing weapons and training. There has been coordination with
the allies in the region to train militant groups and help them transit to
Syria to fight government forces. Although the United States has not been directly
involved in the conflict, in the form of boots on the ground, it has worked
with its allies to provide logistic support to the rebels, which apparently has
been approved by both Democrats and Republicans.
