  • The Milhim Taweel Branch
    THE MILHIM TAWEEL BRANCH Including “The John and Anna Tweel Story” Revised June 2020 William T. Tweel Jr. MD MPH 0 ABOUT THIS REVISION As I write, we are in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many have not been venturing out except when necessary. But there can be a positive side as well. What better way to bide some of that “confinement” than exploring family history using the many mediums available to us? When I first drafted this document, I did a limited distribution to friends and relatives. Acknowledging there might be errors, I also welcomed additional information as there were knowledge gaps that still and may always remain. Most gratifyingly there was an outpouring of additional “finds” as people began to look at those tucked away pictures and documents. I trust that this expanded revision will be enjoyed as much as the first attempt. Any necessary corrections were made. Unfortunately, I could not include everything brought to my attention; though all was enjoyed immensely. No doubt those kind efforts also brought some good memories. However, I have acknowledged those persons who submitted items actually used. As a sort of disclaimer, a project such as this depends on “soft data”, e.g. the oral histories, penned family documents, constructed trees, important clues in those photographs. Even “official” documents have their discrepancies. Therefore, I can never vouch that the content herein will ever be free from error. But I will always welcome additional information as the document may evolve. With appreciation, W.

  • Request for an Inspection on the Impacts of the Bisri Dam Project in Lebanon
    June 24th, 2019 To: Executive Secretary, the Inspection Panel 1818 H Street NW, MSN 10 - 1007, Washington, DC 20433, USA REQUEST FOR AN INSPECTION ON THE IMPACTS OF THE BISRI DAM PROJECT IN LEBANON We, the Lebanon Eco Movement (LEM), are a network of 60 environmental NGOs advocating for sustainable development and the protection of the environment in Lebanon. The movement co- founded the Save the Bisri Valley Campaign in collaboration with the affected communities and a group of experts. LEM is also a member in the Arab Watch Coalition. In this request, we represent a group of residents and landowners whose addresses and signatures are enclosed below. We are also attaching a copy of a new petition that gathered more than 30,000 signatures (Annex Z.b). Our network submitted an earlier request for inspection on June 6th, 2018, and the Panel did not recommend investigation. While we acknowledge the Panel’s previous efforts to address our concerns, we believe that the first complaint was not satisfactorily answered. The Recommendation Report given by the Panel focused more on ensuring a checklist of studies is filled rather than evaluating the validity of the studies and, most importantly, the grave social, environmental and economic harms the project poses to Lebanon. Consequently, the Panel accepted inaccurate information and factual discrepancies provided by the Bank Management. Additionally, given the emergence of new evidence and circumstances, we are submitting a new request for inspection. Our concerns have been already conveyed to the relevant authorities and to the World Bank Management in Beirut. However, the concerns were either disregarded, or addressed with neglect and delay.
