Bosnia Arrests 12 Linked to Islamic Stateby webdesk@voanews.com (VOA News)
Authorities in Bosnia have leveled terror charges against 12 people suspected of fighting for the Islamic State militant group. A statement Friday from the prosecutor’s office said that suspects had done stints in Syria and Iraq in 2013 and 2014. Arrests followed raids across the country over the past eight months, during which bombs, weapons, ammunition, and military equipment were seized. Government authorities in Bosnia estimate at least 150 Bosnians have left the country to fight for the Islamic State in the Middle East, with fifty others believed to have returned to Bosnia. Radical Islamists were rare in Bosnia before the three-year war in the region that ended in 1995, which drew hardline Muslim fighters from other areas to aid in Muslim Bosnians' fight against Serbs and Croats. Those fighters are blamed for the spread of their radical ideology to the more moderate Bosnians.
Kosovo police say they raided several houses across the country, including the families of ethnic Albanians accused of taking part in deadly clashes with police in neighboring Macedonia.

Performance of Dmitry Shostakovich's pro-Stalin cantatas causes outrage by Hannah Ellis-Petersen
Conductor Paavo Järvi is forced to hire a bodyguard after his controversial decision to perform the pro-Soviet pieces as Shostakovich originally wrote them
He is one of the greatest composers of the 20th century, whose stirring symphonies and dark and tormented quartets have echoed around the world’s stages and concert halls for over 50 years.
Yet Dmitry Shostakovich had a complex and troubled relationship with the Soviet regime under which he lived most of his life. Despite writing many pieces praising the greatness of Stalin and the Soviet regime, it is widely acknowledged the compositions were simply a means to ensure his survival at a time when non-compliance meant a prison sentence or worse.

The Russian parliament has given preliminary approval to legislation that would allow prosecutors to declare foreign and international organizations "undesirable'' in Russia and shut them down. The step appears to be part of a campaign to stifle civil society and dissent in Russia that intensified when President Vladimir Putin began his third term in 2012. New laws already have led to increased pressure on nongovernmental organizations, particularly those that receive foreign funding. The latest measure would allow Russian prosecutors to declare an organization undesirable if it presented "a threat to the foundation of the constitutional order'' of Russia, or a threat to its defense capabilities or the nation's security. Parliament's lower house passed the bill Friday in the crucial second reading, 442 to 3.

Lebanese LGBT Group Makes Stand Amid Regional Persecution by webdesk@voanews.com (John Owens)
Activists in Lebanon are joining a global call for LGBT equality. On Sunday, Beirut will host a day of events promoting acceptance as part of the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia (IDAHOT). Amid a regional landscape in which instability and conflict have driven further persecution of an already embattled minority, Lebanon has become a platform for the promotion of LGBT rights. Even in a country relatively seen as a beacon of tolerance, however, the struggle for equality remains a long one. Finding a community Yasir fled Baghdad for Beirut in February, having lost virtually everything because he is gay. Outed about his sexuality against his will, he was disowned by his family, some members of whom he then overheard talking about killing him. In Lebanon, he found a community at Proud, the LGBT organization behind the IDAHOT event, and he'll be performing in a play exploring the lives of those who fled persecution. Yasir, 37, who also took part in writing the script for the performance, said he wanted to take part "to reflect what Iraqi homosexuals think and feel, and what they are suffering from." "They are a community that is marginalized — they feel they have no value," he said. For Yasir, who previously had a high-powered job in Baghdad, living as a refugee without steady accommodation or a job has been difficult. But now that he has found support at Proud and is able to be open about his sexuality, he said the move has been worth it. "I now have my well-being, and that is the most important thing," he said. Growing threat The Middle East is home to some of the most draconian anti-gay legislation in the world, with homosexual acts in countries such as Iraq, Iran and Yemen potentially punishable by death. Post-Arab Spring, the situation for many in the LGBT community across the region has become worse, argued Hossein Alizadeh, Middle East/North Africa program coordinator for the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission. Alizadeh told VOA that militias and groups like the Islamic State were operating in "a vacuum of power." "What you see is vigilante groups going after easier targets, like LGBT communities, in order to show their strength," he said, adding that such groups also sought to present their efforts as a way of clamping down on so-called "Western influence." Alizadeh, however, said there had also been a growth of LGBT organizations, with Lebanon leading the way regionally in this regard because "there is a space to talk about rights." For Bertho Makso, director of Proud, it is because of this that Sunday's activities, which will include a photography exhibition and film screenings, must not just be about Lebanese LGBT rights, but those of refugees and people spread across the Middle East more broadly. Calling the country "an oasis compared to the countries around it," he said the performances were to "highlight the region itself." "At Proud we have beneficiaries coming from all over — Jordanians, Palestinians, Iraqis, Syrians and of course the Lebanese themselves," he said. Continuing discrimination Although Lebanon is seen as a relative haven compared with some of its neighbors, domestic discrimination remains rife. Article 534 of the Lebanese penal code states that "sexual intercourse contrary to nature" is punishable by up to a year in prison and has been used to clamp down on the LGBT community. Public acceptance remains low; a study conducted by the Pew Research Center in 2013 found that only 18 percent polled agreed "society should accept homosexuality." Meanwhile, LGBT refugees, already restricted in their rights, were particularly at risk of "falling into further vulnerability," Makso told VOA. Like the others performing in Proud's play, when Tarek takes to the stage on Sunday, he will be wearing a mask to hide his identity. Having left Syria in August 2013, he told VOA that the difficulties of being a refugee in Lebanon were compounded by being gay. His boyfriend was among those arrested in a series of raids by Lebanese police last year targeting gay men. Also, Tarek and his boyfriend were attacked by a neighbor when he realized they were a couple. Tarek's experience is far from unique. A recent report by the American social services organization Heartland Alliance on Syrian LGBT refugees found that 56 percent had been physically assaulted in Lebanon, while 58 percent described their mental health status as poor. "The police and the public don't like us," Tarek said. "We've stopped going out and we try to stay hidden." Meanwhile, because of gender inequality, life for female members of the LGBT community remains even more hidden, said Proud's advocacy officer, Cosette Maalouf. "Often in the region, women are not supposed to have a sexuality at all, and women are often more able to hide in society than men," she said. But there has been progress Proud is just one of a number of groups promoting LGBT rights in Lebanon, including Helem, which began more than a decade ago as one of the first groups in the Middle East advocating in support of the issue. Last year, a case against a transgender woman charged under Article 534 was thrown out in what some campaigners claimed was a landmark decision. Meanwhile, an online video released by Proud in the run-up to Sunday features a number of non-LGBT celebrities and has received a largely positive reaction from local media, reflecting slowly changing attitudes among some. Alizadeh saw this growing acceptance among some Arabic media outlets based in Lebanon, and their use of a more accepting "frame of reference and vocabulary" when describing the LGBT community, as important. "The things that happen in Lebanon can trickle through to other countries," he added. "I've seen it happen culturally, and it is a very important part of the battle." Although Tarik has faced discrimination both as a gay man and Syrian refugee, it was only in Lebanon that he was finally able to acknowledge his sexuality. With three roles to play in Sunday's theatrical performance, he cannot wait. "It is a very nice feeling to be in the play, and I am very affected by it. Last night I couldn't sleep as I was chatting to a friend about it all night long," he said. "I know I will reach people, and I feel it is a responsibility to my community to help carry their voice."

Obama Honors Police Officers Killed in Line of Dutyby webdesk@voanews.com (Mike Richman)
U.S. President Barack Obama has honored police officers killed in the line of duty, saying they must be remembered as "heroes because that's what they are." In a speech Friday to law enforcement officers on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol, the president said "we cannot erase every darkness or danger from the duty you’ve chosen. We can offer you the support you need to be safer." Obama made his remarks on Peace Officers Memorial Day, part of National Police Week, the annual tribute to law enforcement service and sacrifice. After paying respects at a wreath for fallen officers, the president greeted their families and loved ones gathered for a memorial ceremony. The president's comments coincide with news that police fatalities are up dramatically. In 2013, 27 law enforcement officers were feloniously killed in the line of duty in the United States, the lowest annual total going back to 1980. That figure nearly doubled to 51 last year according to preliminary statistics released this week by the Federal Bureau of Investigation [FBI]. Bill Johnson, executive director of the National Association of Police Organizations, said the 89-percent spike from 2013 to 2014 is of "great concern" to his organization, which represents some 240,000 rank-and-file officers, as well as police groups nationwide. He attributed the rise to a "larger number of intentional attacks, of ambushes, of occasions where there's a traffic stop and the person stopped immediately shoots gunfire at the police, or [cases of] deliberate assassinations." Officers assassinated Johnson singled out two incidents where officers were slain in 2014 with no provocation or warning. In June, Las Vegas policemen Alyn Beck and Igor Soldo were shot by a married couple, Jerad and Amanda Miller, at a pizzeria. The Millers claimed to be on an anti-government, anti-police crusade and boasted about starting a "revolution." In December, New York City officers Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos were killed by Ismaaiyl Abdullah Brinsley, who approached the window of their patrol car and shot them to death. Prior to the assault, Brinsley had threatened revenge for the police-shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri and the death of Eric Garner, who died after police put him in a chokehold in Staten Island, N.Y. Brinsley wrote on social media that “I’m putting wings on pigs today. They take 1 of ours…Let’s take 2 of theirs." "They were just sitting there eating their lunch, and they were just assassinated in the head," Johnson said of the two Las Vegas officers. "We're tragically seeing more incidents like that." This comes as police officers are under increased scrutiny in the U.S. due to allegations of brutality, many of them stemming from the deaths of unarmed black men at the hands of law enforcement. Last month, a black man, Freddie Gray, died a week after suffering a severe neck injury while in police custody in Baltimore. His death sparked rioting, looting and clashes between protesters and police in that city. Six officers have since been indicted in Gray's death on charges including second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter. The chant, "hands up, don't shoot," has come to be emblematic of the protest movement that has sprung up around deaths like Gray's and Michael Brown's. It has been used publicly by U.S. lawmakers on the floor of the House of Representatives and professional athletes, among other prominent figures. It has a negative impact on the reputation of police officers, according to Johnson. Tarnished reputations "It’s false, but the accusation is so horrible," Johnson said. "The accusation keeps bringing to mind - hands up, don’t shoot - that this teenager in Missouri had his hands up and was surrendering and the officer just executed him for no reason or for a racist reason, and none of that was true. But definitely, it poisons the atmosphere, and that makes it more dangerous for the individual men and women who are out there trying to do this job, trying to do police work, trying to serve their communities.” Asked if the accusations of police brutality are valid, Johnson said there are cases where "officers err and sometimes tragically." But he added that in the "vast majority" of situations involving members of the law enforcement community, "they go by the book, they are successful, they are not violent, they are in accord with the law." In his speech Friday, President Obama noted that more needs to be done to heal the tense relationships between many police departments and the communities that they serve. "We can do everything we can to combat the poverty that plagues too many communities in which you have to serve," he said. "We can work harder as a nation to heal the rifts that still exist between law enforcement and the people you risk your lives to protect. FBI Director James Comey, too, said more work is needed to mend ties between police departments and communities, in an online video released to time with National Police Week. He also thanked all law enforcement personnel for their service and said the most important part of National Police Week is "remembering and honoring those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to try and make their communities safe." "I think it’s very, very important for all of us that we do our absolute best to try to see clearly those people we serve and to look for opportunities to have them see us -- see the nature and character of the people who are in law enforcement and why we do the work that we do," Comey said. "I’m confident that if we have that conversation, and we have good clear seeing in both directions, we will heal some of the divisions we’re facing now around this country," he said.
