A Syrian that wants to apply for a Schengen visa [closed]
So, I am a Syrian National that have no connection to Syria whatsoever,
I want to apply for a tourist/visit visa to any Schengen country "the easiest", and I actually don't intend to travel their. The reason behind getting the visa is that I want to have a Schengen visa on my passport so that if one day I actually want to go on a holiday with the wifey it wont be as difficult to get a visa as it might be now.
I am unemployed at the moment.
Oh and my passport is brand new as my older passport expired and I just got this one.
Any Ideas?
Thanks :)

Having an unused Schengen visa in your travel history would be weird. If you do get it, then use it, enjoy the vacation, and leave again on time. That's how you build a positive travel history.
The visa officials will try to judge your ties to your current place of residence. They will look for your residency status there and for a stable income and expenditures.
So they should treat you much like any other resident of Turkey with several years left on the permit, no job, and some savings. The job will be much more important than the savings because you could easily take the savings with you, while a well-paid job is a good reason to return.
In practice, being a Syrian will make it a little bit harder for you because of the suspicion that you want to immigrate into the EU. You wouldn't actually have good chances on an asylum claim because of your residency in Turkey.
So the comment by Richard makes sense; first find a job and then apply for a visa.
