		<description>Thank you, Haitham. 

We&#039;ve got pictures from Tuesday&#039;s Remembrance at Martyr&#039;s Square and the big computer donation by Sabra Shatila Foundation.   &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sabrashatila.org/?p=97&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Come and see&lt;/a&gt;.   The kids signed certificates of ownership on Tuesday, and Dr. Lamb has been working with OLPC and UNRWA schools to deliver the computers and training to students.  He promised to take lots of pictures of the kids.  I hope he remembers.   I&#039;m sure he&#039;s exhausted.

This is a huge effort that is going to create real new possibilities for the children of Palestine and Lebanon.  With the advent of wireless Internet access in the schools (also being built out now) we may soon be able to chat directly with the students themselves.  Who knows how many new your bloggers were just added to the blogosphere?  Only time will tell. 

I hope you will join our efforts at Sabra Shatila.  Please donate as much as you can.  There are no NGOs funding this effort at this point.  Hopefully there may be soon.  But we cannot rely upon that possibility.  

This initial wave of computer donations are being funded entirely by Dr. Lamb personally, with the help of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sabrashatila.org/?p=26&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Dr. Ang Swee Chai&lt;/a&gt; and her friends at the hospital where she works.  

Help spread the word to the blog-o-sphere.  Write letters to the editor.  Give us a shout in your blog, and leave comments where noble people read. Comment spam for a good cause is entirely justified, even if it&#039;s off topic. It is appreciated and welcome by most activists.  Hopefully everyone will appreciate the information and the opportunity to do something which affects Palestinian children directly. Those links will also help our rank in the search engines.

I found almost everyone I know in the blogosphere through comments that linked to their blog. 

Sign up for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sabrashatila.org&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;our newsletter&lt;/a&gt; via Feedburner too.   &lt;a href=&quot;http://peoplesgeography.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Ann El Khoury of Peoples Geography&lt;/a&gt; and I will be posting more pictures of the kids as they arrive.  We&#039;ll be introducing some of them to you via their own blog posts at Sabra Shatila Foundation. Don&#039;t miss anything. Sign up for the newsletter.  

Thank you, Palestine Think Tank!   And thank you, dear readers. 

Come on over and guest blog too if you are moved.  Or email content to servant dot savant at gmail dot com with attribution and I&#039;ll post it for you.   

Best regards,
