If you want to move to the US you need apply for jobs in the US and apply for a work visa. If you apply for a tourist visa & overstay they ICE (immigration) will deport you when caught.

Start by going onto Monster.com and search jobs as well as post your CV. Depending on where you live in the US it is much more expensive then KSA. You may also want to research where there are already Syrian communities in the US as that may your transition a little easier. Pubilc eduction is free, but you will be required to pay for your insurance & medications (3 -4 times more than they are in KSA at least).

Definitely you need to make an appointment at the US embassy in Riyadh to ask about immigration to the US and what are your options (with Syrian passports you may have different options).
