As technology has advanced over time, the development and use of chemical and biological weapons has advanced as well.

In the current security climate, the need to prevent the spread and diversion of small arms and light weapons to unintended people and places is clear. As a result, interest has been growing in many aspects of small arms and light weapons control-from import, export and transit controls, end-use certification and monitoring to customs and border-control procedures and security of arms stock piles.

Many traditional small arms and light weapons control efforts have tended to focus on the symptoms of small arms and light weapons misuse rather than fundamental issues which cause people to procure and misuse them.

The problem of small arms and light weapons is extremely important but also very difficult. One reason is that it is a hard issue to consider in the abstract. So much depends on the conditions in the society, country and region where the problem arises.

Arming at that time was a necessity for personal protection, due to the absence of the state security devices which is in charge of maintaining Public Security.

Arming of pistols, rifles, or machine guns give a deform image of a country concerning security. Nevertheless, the gun shooting and the noise produced by bullets cause a lot of terror and fear for women, kids, and old people.

The right of possessing & carrying weapons clarifies that all people have got this right for granted to own such weapons for personal use similar to the right of a soldier who is equipped with his own weapons. The right of arm possession differs from one country to another to a great extent. This issue is considered one of the most controversial issue of human rights in both local and global policies.

Carrying weapons has become a common phenomenon plaguing societies, especially in developing countries; however that is not the same in many countries.

Experience has shown that fire arms can make a bad situation much worse; and the presence and use of a lot of fire arms can tear the fabric of society, threaten the security of a country and destabalise a region. Even a small number of guns in the wrong hands can have devastating consequences, especially in vulnerable communities.

As mentioned before misuse of arms hurts the entire community. As for Lebanon the phenomenon of carrying weapons widely spread as a result of civil war.

In this sense, to manage the control of individual arming is not necessarily to deprive him from the right of self defense. Moreover, the rising indicator of using weapons is mainly related to the weakness and absence of the government . Nevertheless, we should emphasize on the fact that realization of peace doesn’t begin with disarmament but with applying the rule of the state law.

The lack of security makes armament a mean of self-defense. Therefore, building alliances to confront the phenomenon of small and light weapons is considered one of the solutions to fix this problem by taking the initiative to benefit from the existence of the weapons to combat terrorism.

Since the threat of terrorism is rated “high” more than 30 countries around the world.   Executive countries should collaborate to lessen the danger of this widely spread phenomenon through employing the Defense Industry   in supporting the armies of these countries by developing the Mechanical Defenses in the world.    

In this context the Security Middle East Show (SMES 2015) will take place at BIEL Beirut, Lebanon on Sep.8-10-2015.
