Several NGOs have protested at the presence of the Obraz clero-fascist group at the “National Works” stand at the Novi Sad Book Salon. The stand in question features books promoted by the organization, including “AIDS – Faggot Brigade” and “Einstein and Freud – Two Fake Jew Greats,” as well as a book written by Hague accused Radovan Karadzic. NGOs protest at Obraz stand at book show “The presence at the Novi Sad Book Salon of this organization and its publication raises its profile, and promotes religious, national and all other types of hatred in breach of the Serbian Constitution,” a group of NGOs state in an open letter to Novi Sad Mayor Igor Pavlicic and members of the City Council. “We are calling on you to do everything within your power and authority to ensure that the organizers of the book salon completely eliminate this kind of phenomenon,” the letter states. The letter also stresses that the Human and Minority Rights Ministry has launched proceedings with the competent prosecution to outlaw Obraz’s work. The organizations that reacted in the letter were Taboo, the Vojvodina Peace Group, the Youth Initiative for Human Rights, the Paad Group, Lambda, the Gay-Straight Alliance and Labris. The Human and Minority Rights Ministry recently began the process of legally deleting Obraz from the organization register “as the principles that it promotes are not in keeping with the Serbian Constitution.”
