Civic activists pelt shoes on a poster of Sulejman Tihic, the leader of the Bosnian Muslim largest SDA party, during an action named "Into the New Year with Shoe" in Sarajevo January 3, 2009. A few hundred activists threw shoes at posters of Bosnian Serb, Muslim and Croat political leaders and the top international envoy, protesting against their policy in the ethnically divided Balkan country. The members of the social web-based network Facebook in Bosnia set up a group "With Shoe against Tyranny - Bosnia-Herzegovina issue", a part of a global trend of Internet games inspired by an Iraqi journalist who had thrown a shoe on outgoing U.S. President George W. Bush. REUTERS/ Danilo Krstanovic (BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA)
