Reading Critique: The Importance of Financing in Enabling and Sustaining the Conflict in Syria and Beyond
The article clearly supports the idea of terrorism based on the negative effects. The most widespread threaten countered by many urbanized countries in the world is terrorism. As a threat, terrorism has been treated by these states as a global of matter of concerns that needs instant attention. The concern is because of the socio-economic and political influence that such nations have around the globe. Of late, terrorism as a threat has been and is still portrayed by majority of the countries as a universal challenge. To comprehend the issue of terrorism it is important to examine diverse universal relationships existing theories. Considering the accessibility, supply, and then the allocation of funds are vital matters that ought to consider while in the hunt for dealing with a progressive conflict that is comparative to the current threat challenge being witnessed across the two Arab countries; Syria and Iraq. It makes sense when one argues out about the two cases. As expressed in the Syrian case, irrespective of the fact that the funds sourced from nations such as the U.S., Russia, Iran, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, usually assista variety of elements, a basic aspect to reflect on while talking about the terrorist groups is the financial support supplied by these private contributors. Consequently, a few of them are fascinated by this idea of jihad finance. This is real since it’s illustrated by seeking the reputation and compensation of earnings of jihad by proxy. It is clear how this piece of writing evaluates the significance of having to finance for rebellious groups. Having to focus on this highly powerful role indicates a direct linkage that is played by private donors financing in the current conflict in Syria as well as the substance role of the war economy as the conflict spreads. Such measures will be effective and also determine whether in the coming years, this conflict can still be regulated or it might be influenced by targeting sources of financing.
Terrorism
Terror campaign coupled with the threat of terrorism has different definitions and can therefore be substantiated depending on a person’s perception. One of the best explanations of terrorism is violence as expressed in Syria and Iraq. Sometimes the violence can be politically promoted in order to tear down the social composition within the universal community. Of late, terrorism has turned out as one of the most important factors that the universal communities usually face as they struggle to maintain peace, love and unity. It is real that terrorism is usually influenced by specific people or the groups of people come together having the same interests that are related to the idea of terrorism. Majority of such insurgent groups combine their reasons mostly for violence and terror attack on the urbanized countries in order to bring about interruption of political activities. In addition, they also wish to generate fear among the populace as part of the political disruption.
It is clear that the conflict in Syria has drawn assistance such as weapons, spare parts, supplies, and fighters from different global regions. However, it is obvious that the conflict has been enabled by the organized and generous financial contribution provided by several groups of countries inclusive of the private people. Consequently, it is continued by the current growth and development of a highly profitable war economy. Focusing on the current rate of terrorism, it is thus clear that it’s not a lie to claim that finances are extremely essential to all parties that are engaged in the conflict and violence. In addition, the availability of different forms of finances has to a large extent influenced the course of the adverse conflicts and promoted the occurrence of the conflicts in different regions of the universe.
Globally there are several nations which handle the terrorists as unlawful persons that are not believed to exist. Some of them are given an opportunity to disobey economic development, growth and social-political relations. The combat against terrorism and their insurgent groups normally disregards the reality that terrorist are fully trained people. While carrying out their training, they are engaged in armed forces battles against several cultures in order to perfect their skills while in the field. Different theories mostly give explanations of the reasons that explain why countries have authoritative military and political influence as illustrated in the international community. It is real that some theories such as the Realism usually explain these main reasons that make countries to apply or use such material forces such as the military and other international relations tactics to respond in case of terrorism. Therefore, it’s clear that terrorism can partially be stopped through the use of such material forces that include the military and diplomacy strategies.
It is clear that in the recent past terrorism and other terror related actions have become a big threat to different departments in the developed countries. Currently, there are increased al-Qaeda and many other terrorist attacks being experienced in various countries. The threats in such countries have led to a large increase of security measures. The terrorist attacks against the west are truly attributed to the animosity and vengeance missions being experienced. Terrorism has also contributed to the increased distribution of military forces across the different communities in order to effectively handle the potential threats to the security of the countries. Universally, terrorism has turned out as a major threat to the entire global community over the recent past years. Majority of the hostilities and combats between countries are created by the existence terrorism and are brought out mostly by conflicts of interest between two or more existing countries. Such conflicts of interests are created by the economic interests such as the business policies and principles, factors influencing the production and government policies. It is evident that terrorism happens to reduce the economic interests of a given country leading to a decreased gross domestic product. Therefore, in order to deal with the high rates of terrorism universal community ought to form a very strong force in order to counter the actions of the terrorists.
