U.S. Department of State Lebanon Country Report on Human Rights Practices for 1998 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor, February 26, 1999. LEBANON Lebanon is a parliamentary republic in which the President is by tradition a Maronite Christian, the Prime Minister a Sunni Muslim, and the Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies a Shiâa Muslim. The Parliament consists of 128 deputies, equally divided between Christian and Muslim representatives. In October Parliament chose a new president, Emile Lahoud, in an election heavily influenced by Syria. He took office in November. The judiciary is independent in principle but is subject to political pressure. Non-Lebanese military forces control much of the country. These include about 25,000 Syrian troops, a contingent of approximately 2,000 Israeli army regulars and 1,500 Israeli-supported militia in the south, and several armed Palestinian factions located in camps and subject to restrictions on their movements. All undermine the authority of the central Government and prevent the application of law in the patchwork of areas not under the Governmentâs control. In 1991 the governments of Syria and Lebanon concluded a security agreement that provided a framework for security cooperation between their armed forces. -

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.
