Persuasive Speech On ISIS

Attention Getter:
It is finally quiet. With your ears still ringing, you walk outside and take in the devastating battle scene, or what used to be your street. Homes reduced to piles of burning lumber, neighbors lying dead in the street, fathers and mothers crying out, siblings... Wait, where is your little sister? She didn’t make it home from school before the terrorists raided your city. Panic sets in and you fear for the worst. I guarantee that a variation of this scenario has been a reality for someone in the Middle East. ISIS has left thousands enslaved, homeless, and dead. This group needs to be stopped but current military efforts aren’t enough. American troops should help defeat ISIS with all of their mass, strength, and ferocity and

If you think there is no chance you will be a victim of a terrorist attack, I am sorry to inform you that there is.
Those people in the Belgian airport and metro station didn’t think they were in any danger, but now those 300 people have injuries and 32 people are dead. The victim’s immediate families were affected. Hundreds of their friends were affected.

Now maybe some of you believe we should not be fighting a war across the Atlantic Ocean. Maybe some of you don’t care what happens to people who live in Iraq or Syria. But maybe there are some of you who do care but do not think the United States should step in because you believe Americans are not at harm. The people killed in the Paris attacks probably thought Parisians were not at harm

Let me repeat that because some of you are looking at me weirdly. Your vote doesn’t matter. No, but your vote, your vote, your vote, your families’ votes, your friends’ votes, this state’s vote, this generation’s vote, this nation’s vote, collectively those matters. Politicians need votes and they will take positions that their voters care about. Let us band together and make this a priority for the presidential candidates. Share that you believe the United States government needs to step up their game. We have the means to end the evil ISIS creates, so please join me in supporting people who can make that happen. Thank you and God Bless the United States of
