Unstable<br \/>\nstates, social unrest, loose border<br \/>\ncontrols, fights for power, partial security<br \/>\nin homeland are some of the critical<br \/>\nfactors triggering disorder, preparing<br \/>\navailable grounds for criminals, illicit and<br \/>\nterrorist organizations to start to rule.<br \/>\nWhile there exists security concerns,<br \/>\nalmost all the states not only maintain<br \/>\nmilitary forces for external security,<br \/>\nbut also perceive the significance and<br \/>\nfeel compelled tomaintain internal<br \/>\nsecurity as the security environment<br \/>\ndictates the implementation of new<br \/>\napproachestowards illicit and terrorist<br \/>\ngroups. In this context,as we observe,<br \/>\nterrorism is one of the greatest threats<br \/>\nendangering the stability of the<br \/>\ncountries and lives of innocent people.<br \/>\nIn terrorism there are always spillover<br \/>\neffects because of unstable countries<br \/>\nand inadequate security measures<br \/>\nstarting from borders to the main land.<br \/>\nNo one can guarantee the peace<br \/>\natmosphere unless internal security<br \/>\nis also maintained. Terrorism spills<br \/>\ntowards the areas thatcountries leave<br \/>\nunattended. As a result, terrorists start<br \/>\nto populate and rule.<br \/>\nFailed states, abandoned arsenals,<br \/>\nnot resolving bilateral or multi-lateral<br \/>\nsecurity problems, prepare the available<br \/>\ngrounds for new actors flourish. These<br \/>\nactors and terrorist groups worsen and<br \/>\ndamage homeland security by rendering<br \/>\nthe states ineffectiveandimplement<br \/>\nnew TTPs. Illegal border crossings<br \/>\nand trafficking have started to become<br \/>\nroutine in daily life. Illicit groups and<br \/>\nterrorist organizations have started<br \/>\ntogain control over trafficking and<br \/>\nhomeland borders where there is lack<br \/>\nof internal and border security. Weapon<br \/>\nand ammunition trafficking together with<br \/>\nthe difficulty of border control cause a<br \/>\nlot of security problems. Besides easy<br \/>\naccess to explosives and weapons<br \/>\nthrough loose borders from unstable<br \/>\nstates and abandoned arsenals<br \/>\nsupport and strengthen the capabilities<br \/>\nof almost all type of illegal groups and<br \/>\ncriminals. This situation dictates the<br \/>\nuse of role-effective security equipment<br \/>\nand organized security units. Unless<br \/>\nthe case is otherwise established,<br \/>\nnew problems like money laundering,<br \/>\ntrafficking, kidnapping, assassination,<br \/>\nand illegal activities in the context of<br \/>\nterrorism grow and start to ignite new<br \/>\nsecurity problems.
