<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span lang="EN-GB"><font face="Garamond" size="4">As the death toll of Israel's war on Lebanon reaches 1,000, there is a
project to start a database of information about those Lebanese killed by this
war. The project concept is by a German friend of mine who has asked me for
information (a few lines or more on each, the more the better, I guess)
on the victims and hopefully photos. The aim is to humanize those victims who
are now merely numbers. This can be done by documenting their stories,
preserving each memory and story. Something similar to Yad Vashem, if you want
( </font><a title="http://www.yadvashem.org/ (http://www.yadvashem.org/) (http://www.yadvashem.org/) (http://www.yadvashem.org/)" href="http://www.yadvashem.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
<font face="Garamond" size="4">http://www.yadvashem.org </font></a><font face="Garamond" size="4">, check the attached photo of the hall of<span> </span>names).
This will start as a virtual monument and may later materialize into an
exhibition. The important thing at this point is to start collecting the
information. I have attached a 'victim form' similar to the one used in Yad
Vashem, and please get as much info on each as you see necessary. A small
passage should be ok. Please send to all people who may have information.
I will send this to other people in my mailing list. Some of you are working
with the displaced. Please try to keep some contact info with you and get the
information from them later if they are not in the mood to share now.
