Why do people become immigrants? Democratic countries stand for opportunity and equality but these are difficult promises to keep.
Why do people not like Kurdistan? The Kurds have been pushed out of their homeland for years from the pressure of war in the Middle East.
All people want the same things; we want to have a nice life and we want to work hard and have a salary . Immigrants value education and opportunity and when they graduate they become some of the best citizens because they often work in service jobs.
Democracy in Europe and even America continues to say no to the idea of trusting the immigrant. This is has become true for the Kurdish people of Iraq and the refugees of the war with ISIS.
We say we stand for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness and this must begin with how we treat immigrants.
The life of an immigrant is not easy.
When I applied to be an immigrant to the USA I felt so sad. It was hard knowing that I should come to the USA because my father’s life had become endangered and knowing that I would be separated from my friends and family.I am thankful everyday for the opportunity that I have been given but I am so sad for my people and those like them.
During the 1991 Persian Gulf War, about 70,000 Iraqi refugees were admitted to the United States, most of which were Kurds and Shiiteswho had assisted or were sympathisers of the U.S –led war.[54] Nashville, Tennessee has the nation’s largest population of Kurdish people, with an estimated 8,000–11,000. There are also Kurds in Southern California, Los Angeles, and San Diego.[

i understand the difficulties of being an immigrant. it is a hard life. A) 97% of the time you are not legal. 2) it is sooooo hard to find work here in the US. once you find a job around here you need to make sure you keep it or that there are more that you can do. these people work so hard if they are willing. too many people think that all these foreign people are bad and that they should not be here. but from what i have seen, these people make a huge impact in our lives.

why so much hate and crimes exist in this world? why people discriminate and mistreat others just because they are from a different country?

Turkey government shouldn’t be selfish. They should let the Kurdish into the country. they are just trying to have a better life, better future, etc. if they are leaving their country is because they are not bad nor have bad intentions. They don’t want to be worrying about being killed by attacks in their country. Also, they want a better life style being able to work and have a salary to support their family.
