Would Banning Muslims from Entering the United States of America Reduce the Incidents of Terrorism in the Homeland?

Would Banning Muslims from Entering the United States of America Reduce the Incidents of Terrorism in the Homeland?

                                                        The Topic

The Americans may hold different views about the efforts to reduce terrorism in the country. However, the issue of allowing Muslims to enter the country proves controversial because some people may propose that the government bans the Muslims from entering the homeland. Therefore, there is a need to undertake a research on the views that the Americans hold about allowing the Muslims from other parts of the world to enter the country. In the research, it will be important to establish the age and gender of the immigrants who are prone to engaging in the terror activities. Additionally, the immigration status of the individual, the rate of terrorism and the education of the terrorist suspects are the concerns of the research. Thus, this research proposal intends to establish the American perspectives on the possibility of having a relationship between the Muslim immigration into the United States and the frequency of terror attacks in the country.

The Controversy

The purpose of this study is to establish whether Muslim immigration into the United States causes terror activities in the country and the American perspectives about the issue. Using some immigration scenarios, the research strives to show the age group and gender that is likely to be associated with the terror activities according to American perspective. Moreover, the research can clarify the concerns of the Muslim minority who may argue that they fall victim of security agencies who carry out operations after a terrorist attack. Moreover, the research will entail establishing of the views of the Americans about religious profiling that may happen after terror attack. The number of terrorist attacks will form the dependent variable while the age, gender, education and military involvement of the immigrants will stand as the independent variables. Given that it is difficult to establish the intentions of the immigrants, a qualitative method is the best method to identify the character of the immigrants, their age, and gender as (Pawson 85) points out. The qualitative research approach begins by identifying the independent and dependent variables for the research.

Research Question

After establishing the purpose of the research, it is good to state the research question. Therefore, the research question is: Would banning Muslims from entering the United States of America reduce the incidents of terrorism in the Homeland?

In answering the question, it is appropriate to use a research that follows the criteria for the purpose of understanding the views of the Americans and the Muslims who live in the United States. However, it is apparent that banning Immigrants from getting into the United States does not reduce the acts of terror in the homeland. It is the undoubted truth that not all Muslims are terrorists and therefore, banning all Muslims from entering the United States amounts to blanket condemnation and infringement of rights. There are those Muslims that enter the United States to engage in businesses and therefore, denying them a chance amounts to economic sabotage. Thus, Americans who take part in the research should give a direct answer about the issue of allowing Muslims in the United States.

Many Americans have mixed views or emotions about banning Muslims from entering the country and their proposal is enforce stricter inspections to reduce terrorism in the country. For instance, in the past, Americans have proposed control of illegal arms as a way of reducing terror activities in the country.  From other research, Americans have suggested upgrading of the VISA security program to identify the fake VISAs that the terrorists may use.  Many Americans propose screening of all containers that are destined to America to ensure that explosives do not enter the United States.  The stated measures constitute the views of Americans towards reducing the acts of terror in the country and they do not support the banning of Muslims.

Tentative Thesis Statement

It is noteworthy that conspiracy theory about the terrorism may shape the American perspectives about the relationship of Muslim immigrants and the acts of terror. The research will seek to know whether Americans use the conspiracy theory to build prejudices against the Muslims. People may use the conspiracy theory to build prejudices against the Muslim immigrants into the United States. The conspiracy theory has it that Muslims, through ISIS may destabilize the world and may not know peace wherever they go. The research may respond to the concerns of those who believe in conspiracy theory. There are those citizens that hold the belief that majority of the Muslims are either terrorists or terrorist sympathizers and therefore, they should not be allowed into the United States. It is such prejudices that the research may clarify on whether Muslim immigrants may cause terror scares among the citizens of the United States.
