Lebanon Death Toll Hits 1,300
By Robert Fisk
The Independent, 17 August 2006
They are digging them up by the hour, the swelling death toll of
the Lebanon conflict. The American poet Carl Sandburg spoke of the
dead in other wars and imagined that he was the grass under which
they would be buried. "Shovel them under and let me work," he said
of the dead of Ypres and Verdun. But across Lebanon, they are
systematically lifting the tons of rubble of old roofs and apartment
blocks and finding families below, their arms wrapped around each
other in the moment of death as their homes were beaten down upon
them by the Israeli air force. By last night, they had found 61 more
bodies, taking the Lebanese dead of the 33-day war to almost 1,300.
In Srifa, south of the Litani river, they found 26 bodies beneath
ruins which I myself stood on just three days ago. At Ainata, there
were eight more bodies of civilians. A corpse was discovered beneath
a collapsed four-storey house north of Tyre and, near by, the
remains of a 16-year old girl, along with three children and an
adult. In Khiam in eastern Lebanon, besieged by the Israelis for
more than a month, the elderly village "mukhtar" was found dead in
the ruins of his home.
Not all the dead were civilians. At Kfar Shuba, dumper-truck drivers
found the bodies of four Hizbollah members. At Roueiss, however, all
13 bodies found in the wreckage of eight 10-storey buildings were
civilians. They included seven children and a pregnant woman. Ten
more bodies were disentangled from the rubble of the southern
suburbs of Beirut - where local people claimed they could still hear
the screams of neighbours trapped far below the bomb-smashed
apartment blocks. The Lebanese civil defence organisation - almost
as brave as the Lebanese Red Cross in trying to save lives under
fire - believe at least three families may be trapped in basements
deep below the wreckage.
Ignoring the dangers of unexploded ordnance, several Lebanese Shia
Muslims returned to their destroyed homes to retrieve personal
belongings - including family snapshots and albums that contain the
narrative of their lives - only to fall between gaps in the broken
apartment blocks and plunge dozens of feet into the darkness
beneath. Among the last to die only minutes before the UN ceasefire
came into effect was a child who was found in her dead mother's arms
in Beirut.
How many of these dead would have survived if George Bush and Tony
Blair had demanded an immediate ceasefire weeks ago will never be
known. But many would have had the chance of life had Western
governments not regarded this dirty war as an "opportunity" to
create a "new" Middle East by humbling Iran and Syria.
"When a Jew, in America or in South Africa, talks to
his Jewish companions about 'our' government, he means the
government of Israel."
