Two bald eagles recently hatched out of their shells and into the hearts of millions of people who watched their arrival in real time via the Internet, thanks to a pair of high-definition cameras that had been installed near their nest at Washington's National Arboretum. The heartwarming images provided - and continue to provide - a rare (and addictive!) glimpse into a wild place most people would never normally see. But as VOA’s Julie Taboh reports, the eagle cam is just one example of the power of web cameras to raise awareness about the many wonders - and mysteries - of our natural world.

IS 'Cyrillic Jihadists' Create Their Own Community in Syriaby webdesk@voanews.com (Mehdi Jedinia)
Wednesday March 30th, 2016 at 3:35 PM

Voice Of America

Over 5,000 jihadists from the Central Asian countries of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan are fighting in the ranks of the so-called Islamic State militant group in the Middle East. These Russian-speaking Muslims not only play a major role within the IS leadership, but also have built a community of their own in the areas controlled by the extremist group. In fact, they are now raising their children to be a second generation of jihadists, sources say. Russian-speaking Jihadists are the second largest group of foreigners fighting for IS. The number of jihadists from Central Asia and Russia joining IS has increased by as much as 300 percent since June 2014, according to a report by the New York City-based Soufan Group. While their rituals, customs, race, and ethnic background may vary, members of this group have at least one thing in common that distinguishes them from other jihadists: they can read and write fluently in Cyrillic script, given that the now-independent countries of their birth were for decades dominated by the Soviet Union, which used Russian as its lingua franca. Most of these so-called “Cyrillic Jihadists” have settled near the Syrian city of Raqqa, the de facto IS capital, and their areas have developed into real communities with certain habits and rituals. Residents can hear Friday prayers in Russian at the Abubakr Dagestani mosque. Adults can attend at the Abu Muslim Islamic school to study Arabic and Quranic thought. Children study math and the Quran at a Russian-language school run by the foreign fighter brigade headed by Abu Hanif Jamaat, a native of Dagestan in Russia’s North Caucasus region. Homesick wives of the jihadists can shop for products from their home countries at the “Univermag” Russian store. “The Russian-speaking jihadists formed a community of their own within IS,” said Salem al-Hammoud, a civic activist from the IS-controlled Syrian city of Deir Ezzor who is currently based in Turkey. IS has fighters from all over the world, including North Africa and Europe, “but there’s a significant percentage that comes from the former Soviet republics,” he said. “These fighters are very different from others in terms of discipline and military training comparing to their Arab and African counterparts,” Al-Hammoud said, adding that the IS leadership appoints them to important posts “because they are tough and they do not sympathize with locals.” Since they do not mingle with other jihadists, he said, IS leaders view them as “a very reliable, resilient force.” Fighters from the Caucasus region, Central Asia and Russia are linked by their knowledge of Russian. “There is evidence that the Russian-speaking fighters train together,” said Edward Lemon, a researcher at the University of Exeter in Britain. ”Russian-speaking fighters, most notably the late Abu Omar al-Shishani, have risen to the top of the ranks of IS. Given their combat experience, fighters from the North Caucasus are regarded as particularly strong fighters.” Abu Omar al-Shishani, born Tarkhan Batirashvili, was an ethnic Chechen from Georgia who served in the Georgian Army during its brief war against Russia in 2008 before becoming a top IS commander in Syria. He died from wounds sustained in a U.S. airstrike conducted in Syria in early March. Not mercenaries Contrary to the common belief that these fighters joined IS to make money, many of them see IS-controlled territory in Syria as their home and do not consider themselves mercenaries. Babajon Karabayev, a former IS fighter who returned to Tajikistan, said that these fighters call the Islamic State home. Karabayev was looking for a job in Russia due to the bad economy in his home country. Frustrated with the Russian job market, he fell into the IS recruiting network. “Many fight for money, but most are there for their ideology,” he said. He received some money, but left the group because he was not as steadfast in his convictions as others. A tax-free income stream is an incentive to join IS, but not enough to keep someone in its ranks over the longer term. “IS propaganda stresses the positives of living in the Caliphate - brotherhood among fellow Muslims and the idea of building a pure Islamic State,” said Lemon. “There is limited evidence that money is a driver for recruitment, but it certainly plays some role.” IS recruiters exploit the lack of social support for Central Asian immigrants in Russia. “Many are recruited from migrant worker communities in Russia, as the lack of a supportive community there opens the door to recruitment,” says Catherine Putz, a U.S.-based journalist and researcher. “There are also economic factors involved, as extremist groups often tempt recruits with promises of money.” Identity crisis The fact that people like Abu Omar al-Shishani and Gulmurod Halimov, a U.S.-trained police colonel in Tajikistan who went to the Middle East and joined Islamic State, have become top IS members has created a sense of belonging for Russian-speaking Muslims, who suffered an identity crisis in their home countries. According to the Soufan Group, a majority of the “Cyrillic Jihadists” come the North Caucasus — particularly Chechnya and Dagestan, areas with long histories of Islamic extremism. Rashot Kamalov, the imam of the Al-Sarahsiy Mosque in Kyrgyzstan who encouraged his followers to join IS in Syria, was sentenced to a five-year jail term for “inciting religious hatred” and “possessing extremist materials” in February 2015. But Kamalov remains popular with some young Kyrgyz Muslims. “Not only Kyrgyz but other youngsters with Islamic tendencies from Chechnya, Dagestan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan have been exposed to this idea and have embraced it as a form of self-expression,” says Noah Tucker, managing director of Registan.net, a website the focuses on Central Asia, the Caucasus, and South Asia. “They come to believe that the Islamic State is the Islamic utopia they were chasing for years. Most of the recruiting material from ISIS aimed at Central Asians in Russia actually focuses almost exclusively on identity – ‘You are Muslims, and your problems are caused by those who oppress Muslims’ - and offers it both as an explanation for what potential recruits have suffered in life and as a solution …, presenting ISIS as the ‘Muslim counterforce’ to this oppression.” Islamic utopia, Russian style Although Russia has clearly sided with President Bashar al-Assad in what it calls “the fight against terrorists in Syria,” some observers claim that Russian authorities have encouraged local jihadists to depart for Syria. Nadir Medetov, a 32-year-old Dagestani Salafist who was arrested by the Russian security services in October 2014 on charges of illegally possessing illegal firearms turned up in Syria four months later. Some experts believe that Medetov was able to escape to Syria not due to a lapse in security, but because of a deliberate Kremlin strategy to send the most troublesome members of society to hotspots abroad. “There are reports arguing that the Russian government took a very active role in helping jihadists and potential militants leave the Caucasus to go fight in Syria - where, as it turned out, the Russian air force was able to bomb them with a level of impunity they cannot implement in the Caucasus anymore,” said Registan.net’s Noah Tucker. Russian Defense Sergei Shoigu recently claimed that his forces killed more than 2,000 Russian jihadists in Syria. Future cannon fodder The Russian-speaking jihadists see IS as a lifestyle choice and even a long-term plan for the future, which is why they try to raise their children to be the next generation of jihadists. In the Russian-language schools in IS-controlled territory, the children of the Russian-speaking jihadists are subjected to brainwashing and discipline by uncompromising Muslim scholars. Some Muslim families in Central Asian countries send their children to IS territory in the Middle East for what they think will be a better life. According to a recent report by Kyrgyzstan’s internal affairs ministry, 85 children under the age of 10 and 36 teenagers left Kyrgyzstan for Syria during the last few months.

Turkish Government Targeting Foreign Media, Journalists Sayby webdesk@voanews.com (Jamie Dettmer)
Wednesday March 30th, 2016 at 3:35 PM

Voice Of America

Foreign journalists working in Turkey complain the government of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has started to target them in an expansion of a media clampdown that until recently appeared mainly focused on domestic newspapers and broadcasters. They say there has been an alarming rise in police harassment - from persistent and aggressive identity and accreditation checks in towns along the border with Syria and in the country’s mainly Kurdish southeast, to demands to inspect cell phones and laptops owned by foreign journalists arriving at airports from overseas. Two Western reporters have been arrested in recent weeks at Istanbul airports and then summarily deported hours later - one, Spanish photojournalist Natalia Sancha, after refusing to provide passwords to unlock her computer and cell phone, which would have allowed data trawling. More than half a dozen others, including Sam Tarling, a Beirut-based freelance news photographer who works mainly for London’s Daily Telegraph, have confirmed they were given no alternative but to divulge their phone and laptop passwords, if they wanted to continue with onward travel. And several foreign journalists based in Turkey in the past few months have either been expelled or have been withdrawn by their employers from the country after authorities declined to renew press accreditation. On March 17, Hasnain Kazim, the German weekly Der Spiegel’s Turkey correspondent, was forced to leave after Turkish authorities refused to renew his press credentials. Eight of the 20 German journalists based in Turkey have also been refused press cards, according to media watchdogs. The deportations and accreditation denials appear to have increased since last September, when Dutch journalist Frederike Geerdink was expelled after she was detained on allegations of aiding Kurdish militants while reporting in the country’s strife-torn southeast. Campaign of intimidation alleged The ramping up of what foreign reporters describe as a campaign of intimidation against them comes as Western governments and Ankara clash over the trial of two Turkish journalists, which started last week. Turkish officials, including President Erdogan himself, have lashed out at EU countries for tasking diplomats to attend the first hearing of the controversial trial of the two prominent journalists, Can Dundar and Erdum Gul, who are charged with spying and threatening state security. EU governments have expressed alarm at what they see as a concerted effort by the Erdogan government to control journalism in the country, what is being reported and where journalists go. Most of the criticism has focused on cases brought against Turkish media outlets or the seizing of control by the government of newspapers and broadcasters critical of the policies being pursued by Ankara. But the increasing targeting of foreign reporters is adding to alarm, said a senior diplomat based in Istanbul. “In January, Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu dismissed our criticism of how the government is handling the media, saying, ‘If there is anything limiting freedom of expression in Turkey, I will be the first one to resist it.’ Well, he hasn’t put up much of a resistance,” said the diplomat. The growing list of incidents at Istanbul airports involving foreign reporters has prompted complaints from several EU countries, including Denmark. ‘Very disturbing’ On February 9, Claus Blok Thomsen, a Copenhagen-based foreign reporter for Denmark’s leading daily broadsheet newspaper, Politiken, was detained at Istanbul's Sabiha Gokcen International Airport, where he was changing planes to travel to the border town of Kilis. “It was very weird,” said Thomsen. It was his first visit to Turkey in many years. “At passport control I was surrounded by three plains-clothes security guys and I showed them my passport. I was taken to a small room near passport control. They asked me to open my iPhone and laptop. They asked for my passwords so they were able to see what I had on my phone and computer and that is very disturbing. They didn’t give me a choice. I was surrounded by security guys, so I did what I was told to do. It wasn’t a two-way discussion. They took them and disappeared for a long time,” he said. He added: “Eventually I asked what was going on and I was told that I would not be allowed to continue to travel. They said they were just following orders from their superiors and I was told I was considered a threat to national security.” He was held in a cell overnight and then put on a plane back to Copenhagen. “I had not as such written about Turkey before, except I had been covering al-Qaida facilitators in Denmark who had been assisting Danish jihadists to travel through Turkey to Syria,” he said. “[That] makes it even weirder that they picked me; they didn’t interrogate me, they didn’t ask me one question,” Thomsen told VOA. His newspaper has asked for more explanation as has the Danish Foreign Ministry and the country’s prime minister, Lars Lokke Rasmussen, but so far to no avail. ‘They put me in a room and searched everything’ Beirut-based Spanish photo-journalist Natalia Sancha, who works mainly for Spain’s El Pais newspaper, suspects her confrontation at Sabiha Gokcen International Airport was the result of her coverage on previous trips. One of her reports on the experiences of Syrian refugees trying to travel from Turkey to Europe explored allegations of collaboration between organized crime smuggling gangs and Turkish policemen. “On my arrival two security guys stopped me when I was on my way to catch a domestic flight,” she told VOA. “They put me in a room and searched everything - I had a camera, computer and books. And then at the end they told me to hand over my phone, they wanted to go over it. With some countries I remove contacts from my phone before I travel. But I never thought that I would need to clean out my phone when it comes to Turkey,” she added. Sancha was warned if she didn’t provide her passwords, she would be jailed but she continued to refuse to do so and demanded to see a Spanish consular official. “I told them if the embassy told me to provide the phone and password, I would do so, but they made it clear they couldn’t care less about Spain.” She said she got into a shoving match with two women security officers who were very aggressive with her. After spending 16 hours in a windowless cell without food or water, Sancha was deported on the grounds of being a threat to Turkish national security and has been banned for five years from entering the country. One official confided to her she had been put on a list of journalists to be targeted because of her work. VOA asked for comment from the Turkish Foreign Ministry about incidents at Istanbul airports involving journalists as well as the refusal to renew the press accreditation of others but received no response by the time this article was published. Said Politiken reporter Thomsen, “It seems like there is no logic why some people are detained and others are not. Turkey says it wants to become a member of the EU, but this is not the way a member of the EU should act.”
