^^^ They can hire Ojay's lawyers for all I care, but they ain't taking out an ounce of gold or a drop of oil. How about that?

NGONGE: I give them a month of fighting before they start losing hope and blaming the Courts for bringing the Ethiopians into Somalia. Who are these people you give a month?

Kenya's Muslim Leaders Will Not Cooperate in War Against Somalia By Alisha Ryu Nairobi 27 November 2006 Muslim leaders in Kenya are warning the government against allowing foreign militaries to use Kenya as a staging ground for war against Islamists in neighboring Somalia. VOA Correspondent Alisha Ryu has details from our East Africa Bureau in Nairobi. Kenyan Islamic leaders meeting in Nairobi say they believe the country is in danger of being dragged into the brewing conflict in neighboring Somalia and becoming another front in the U.S.-led war on terror. The secretary general of the Council of Imams and Preachers of Kenya, Sheikh Muhammad Dor, tells VOA that Muslim leaders here are particularly concerned over reports they are hearing of tanks cited near the Ethiopian and Somali border, leading to speculation the Kenyan government may have allowed Ethiopia to move some of their heavy armored vehicles to the Somali border through towns in northern Kenya. "What we are saying is that we have eyewitnesses, who saw military tanks. The tanks were in Mandera, Isiolo, Moyale and Garissa. This is not rumor," he said. Moyale and Mandera are right on Kenya's border with Ethiopia. Isiola and Garissa are several hundred kilometers south of the Ethiopian border and far from the Somali border. The sheikh acknowledges he cannot confirm that the tanks seen in northern Kenya belonged to the Ethiopian military, or that they were being deployed to battle Somalia's powerful Islamist forces. Kenyan government officials vehemently deny that the country is being used for military activity against Somali Islamists, and have cautioned the Muslim leaders here from making statements the government says are "unpatriotic" and "unhelpful" to the situation in Somalia. Since Islamists seized the Somali capital in June and began consolidating their power throughout southern and central Somalia, Ethiopia has accused leaders of the movement of being extremists with ties to terrorist groups. Ethiopia admits that it has sent several hundred military advisors to support Somalia's secular, but weak interim government, which has its headquarters in the town of Baidoa. But it has steadfastly denied Islamist and U.N. claims that Addis Ababa has deployed thousands of combat troops in Somalia to protect the government from being toppled. The Islamists have declared a holy war on Ethiopia, which is more than half Muslim and has a Christian leadership. The Kenyan Muslim leader says Muslims in Kenya will not allow their country to be used in what he describes as "Christian plans" to attack Somalia to discredit and destroy the growing Islamist movement there. "We will never support a Christian country, or a Christian army to fight against our Muslim brothers," said Dor. "We will not say how we are going to protect our Muslim brothers in Somalia, if any foreign country passes in Kenya. But we are telling you, we will definitely protect our Muslim brothers. Definitely." Muslims make up about a quarter of Kenya's predominantly Christian population of nearly 36 million. Since the September 11, 2001, attacks in the United States, tensions between Kenyan Muslims and Christians have been rising steadily, amid Muslim complaints of harassment and intimidation in the country's official efforts to combat terrorism.

I heard it was 30 minutes cross-shelling from both sides. Nothing more nothing less.

I don't see the big issue here. However uncomfortable, somethings cannot be rationally proved and thus to insist on proving them is somewhat ungainly.

An unedited sketch that I hope would give you an idea of my refusal of over relying on rational faculties - I pray for your patience may you find some mistakes in the post. ----------------------- [edit]For Viking and Elysian Any law that is found in conflict or incompatible with the judgment of the heart should not be applied to the affairs of man. The heart is not only the king ruler over all other organs of the body, but it is also the ruler over all things living and breathing, which are still in existence. As such, this truth about the heart remains absolute and irrefutable by any other argument. The supremacy of the heart can only be refuted by the existential threat of death itself, which renders it dysfunctional. All other threats merely bruise it. With that hypothesis put in place, I will go forward to other matters related to the preference of the mind over the heart, which usually gives the impression that on the course of making effective decisions, the heart less desirable to the brain. However, before I proceed, an explanation about the state of the heart, as I understand it, is due here. Firstly, it is a biological fact that the heart is an organ of the body, which makes possible life itself. Secondly, the heart permanently remains between two states: (a) in virtue or (b) in vice. Thus, any good found in the heart is in compliance with virtue, and applying such goodness to the affairs of man becomes a law of the best kind. Likewise, any bad found in the heart is in compliance with the state of vice, and good laws are put in place to restrict or minimize the application of vice to mankind. While the heart remains between these states, the brain cannot be said of the same. The brain is command taker and like a sentry soldier that awaits orders from either the good or the bad part of the heart. Thus the hearts holds superiority over the brain. Misfortune, therefore, is with those who have reasoned that the brain can singularly function to set rights and correct wrongs. Man has for many millennia remained heartless and continues to be in such a state. He has known nothing else except suffering and unending wars. His total trust of the brain, naturally a sentry soldier, has become the seed of chaos. As is the case with all beings in sentry, suspicion and vigilance is almost a permanent state; misjudgment or sensual misinterpretation of information and events can result devastating reactions. With only one being at sentry, it is easy to perceive him/her as an exception to the norm, but when all human beings become sentry, the potential for devastation is great. This potential to react negatively poses the danger of total annihilation of all things existing, as sentry minds and sentry fingers unleash the force of destructive technology. Thus all efforts must be made to avert destruction. One way of averting danger is to refocus humanity from the state of sentry and distrust of the brain and to reliance on the heart that distinguishes the flames of suspicion. As important as the cognitive faculties of the mind are, they are not wise enough to feel at home with peace. This is to imply that it is feelings and not intellect that grasp the positive aspects of peace. As such, the only organ in the body to feel peace is only the heart. The failure to resort to the counsel of the heart thus has the consequence of making the earth a playground for exclusivist ideas. This means that each group of humans, under the pretext of self-interest and safety from threat would engage other groups in hostile manner. In return, this only exacerbates the presumption of threat, which makes pre-emptive actions imminent. The brain may be capable to reason but it hasn’t been known to feel, it perceives senses and images. The collection of these senses, such as thinking, or ‘reasoning’ all lead to one thing; conflict. It is therefore safe to claim that rationality eminating from the mind, far from soliciting peaceful co-existence of all the planet's creations, creates one disaster after other and may result in Armageddon. Thus, we must abandon it or, if that is not possible, reduce the priority we give to the brain. Are you a mind or a heart person?

Elysian and Viking...sorry to have taken time to post the topic I promised. I can't bring myself to sit infront of the computer lately. Although I have hand written notes, I don't have to energy to type it all. So I am just gonna post the first few paragraphs...just to fulfill my promise . PS: Check for a new topic in few munites

ONE POINT: Meles' war on Somalia is a Woyane war, and not a war from all other Ethiopians. That should be kept in mind.

^^SF, I don't think the appeal to adapt an inward-looking approach to understand our problems washes with me right now. I would even go as far as suggesting that Ethiopia's (historical) tendency to beg foreigners has cost me a large chuck of my land. Now don't tell me we shouldn't blame the British and the French for my problems because it is their direct support for Abyssinia that is the cause of all my problems. If it was abyssinia only, Addis Abbaba would today have spoken perfect Somali! That said, since you have mentioned the Wal Incident, I wouldn't mind, one bit, to discuss that subject with you at length. I have original documents and articles that are useful to constructive debate. I wouldn't mind if you elucidate your reference to the Wal Incident, what is your point exactly?

Pitty Amharas and the Tigre's historic memories starts after Western Somalia was signed away to Abyssinia. They seem to possess a partial memory of how this Somali land was given to successive Abyssinian kings by European powers concerned with 'fresh meat and vegitables' procurement to the colonizing soldiers. Meneliks beggings and childlike cries for help and handouts have made the Europeans to give him what is now Western Somalia. The abyssinians have a legendry reputation for effective begging. From the kings to the laymen, they still continue to beg. Just few days ago Zenawi declared his readiness to engage the UIC in war, yet days after that decleration, he is on record begging the international community for aid! This is the sought of individual that we are dealing with here. A thief as a begger!

Published: 20 November, 2006 20:18 Source: iqrapress.com Waxaa yaab leh dadka leh Maxakamadaha Islaamiga oo xukunka caasimada la wareegay, bishii Juun 6, 2006, waxay soo wadaan ciriiri, iyo xad gudub waxa lagu sheego “xuquuqul Insaanka.” Waxaa weliba loo saadaalinaaya in ay noqon doonaan sida Talibaantii Afghanistan. Waxay joojinaayaan “hor-u-marka” ayna naga reebaayaan mujtamaca ilbaxa ah. Qaranka Somaali waa wada Muslim, dhibaato kuma aha in dalkiisa laga hirgeliyo Sharciga Islaamka. Dalalka dunida mid walba diintiisu ayuu leeyahay. Ma aha in cay ama ceeb loo arko hadii dal adkeeyo diintiisa. Dalalka dunida badi waxay qaateen shacabka diinta uu u badan yahay. Meel yar ayay ka dhacday diinta dadka tirada yar haysta in uu noqdo diinta dalka. Qolo walba waxay ku dadaashaa sidii ay diinteeda u xoojin lahayd. Kuwo qaarkood weliba waxay xil iska saareen, oo kharaj gaar ah meel u dhigay, sidii ay u faafin lahaayeen diintooda, kuwaas oo u badan kuwa diinta masiixiga, oo badi qaaradaha kale min Afrika ilaa Asia iyo Latin Amerika ergooyin u kala diri jiray waqtigii hore oo welina wada hawshaas. Sida la ogsoon yahay, ergoyin ka socday kaniisooyinka masiixiga (Christian Missionaries) si xoog leh ayay qaaradda Afrika u soo galeen qarnigii 19aad si ay ugu faafiyaan diintooda. Sababta u fududeysay “missionaries-ka” hawl-galkoooda waxay ahayd in ay la kulmeen dad aan waxba haysan ama kuwo aan diinba lahayn. Waxay carruurta ku uruurin jireyn xeryo ay cunto iyo jiif iyo hanuunin dineed ku siin jireen, waalidiintoodana waxaa loo tusay lagana dhaadhiciyay in carruurta loo xanaaneynaayo. Somaaliya waa lagu kari waayay beryahii hore. Hase yeeshee, sidaas loogama harin. Si shabakada loogu soo rido, dalkooda ayaa dab lagu shiday isla markaasna albaabada dalalka daneynaayay arrintaas ayaa loo furay si ay lugohooda ugu soo galaan. Ilaa mardhow ayaa laga hadlaayay dhulka ay Somaalida degan yihiiin, NFD, ee ay Kenya haysato, oo abaarta wax yeeleysay, in qolo diinta faafisa cunto u geysay oo ku soo fashaleen in ay dadka ka dhaadhiciyaan diintooda. Maadaama ay baahi jirtay, waxaa la moodaayay in dadka si sahal loo gashan karo waxii la doono. Markay isku dayeen in ay uga sheekeeyaan diintooda isla markii ay u dhibaayeen bakooyinka ay cuntada ku sideen.waxay la kulmeen ummad Islaam ah oo diintooda ku adag. Waxay ku sheegeen dadka halkaas degan in ay yihiin dad madax adag. Waxaa kale oo jiray in isla halkaas shirkad New Zealand ah rabtay in ay u dirto cuntada eyda la siiyo. Sida runta ah Muslimiinta fara kulul ayaa lagu haayaa, gaar ahaan Somaalida, meel kasta ha joogeeyee. Mararka qaarkood dalalka “soo dhoweeyay” Somaalida waxay isu sheegaan inay ku fashaleen Somaalida oo weli ay kari la’yihiin in ay beddelaan. In Somaalida adagtahay waxaa u daliil ah in iyagoo muddo dheer dibadaha joogay waatan maanta dad badan la soo carraraayo caruurtooda oo dalkii Somaaliya oo la ogyahay dhibaatada ka jirta ayaa naf laga soo raadinaayaa. Sababta dib loogu soo noqonaayo waxay tahay si carruurta looga badbaadiyo kuwa mashruucooda yahay in ay diin kale baraan iyo anshax xumada iyo waxyaalaha kale oo ka hor yimid Somaalida dibadaha ku nool. Waxaa caddaatay in carruurta ay faraha ka baxi doonaan haddii ay sida wax u socdaan iyo bi’ada lagu noolyahay loo daayo in ay ku sii koraan. Hoggaamiyahii ururka Mao-Mao oo u soo halgamay xornimada Kenya oo kaddibna noqday Madaxweynahii ugu horeeyay, Jomo Kenyatta, waxaa laga haayaa in uu dhihi jiray markuu ka hadlaayo sida uu isticmaarka Afrika ku soo galay, “Markii ay gaaladda soo galeeneen qaaradda waxay gacanta ku haysteen Bible-ka, Afrikaantana waxay haysteen dhulkooda. Afrikaanta markay indhaha kala qaadeen, waxa gacanta lo geliyay Bible-ka isticmaarkana waxuu qabsaday dhulka.” Somaaliya kama duwaneen dalalka Afrika oo la rabay in lagu faafiyo diinta masiixiga. Sannadka markuu ahaa 1870 bishii Maarso 4, Wakiilka Ingiriiska u fadhiyay Cadan, oo isla markaas mas’uul ka ahaa dhulalka Somaaliya, General Russell, waxuu u sheegay dawladdiisa in uu markab u diraayo Barbara, si loo soo ilaaliyo xaaladda, iyo haddii ay suurto gal noqoto, in laga hor tago, in qabaa’ilka laga celiyo in ay hoos geliyaan dhulkooda maamul Islaam ah. Waxa laga ilaalinaayo Somaalida waxuu Turkiya la heshiiyaan, oo halkaas asigana markaas joogay. Nassiib wanaag sannadka markuu ahaa 1899, waxaa soo baxay Sayyid Maxamed Cabdulle Xasan oo Ingiriis dagaal kaga hortagay. Qulsulka Ingiriiska oo Barbara joogay, Hayes Sadler, markuu dhan kasta ka eegay arrinta waxu tebiyay in hadafka dhabta ah ee Sayyidka aan weli la hubinin, waxuuse yiri: “Waa dhaqdhaqaad dineed oo markasta laga wal-wala marka dalka yahay dal Maxammadaan ah.” (Maxammadaan waxaa laga wadaa ummadda Nabi Maxammad (s.c.w.s.) raacsan). Sayyidka markuu la kulmay 1905tii Wakiilka Talyaaniga Pestalozza oo doonaayay in uu heshiisiiyo Sayyidka iyo Ingiriiska, waxuu waxbixintii uu u qoray dawladdiisa ku sheegay in Sayyidka dalabkiisa ugu horeeyay uu yahay “in laga joojiyo ergooyinka Kristaanka (Christian Missionaries) carruurta Somaalida ay xeryaha gelinaayaan oo ay ka dhigaayaan Kristaan.” Pestalozza waxuu yiri, diidmada Ingiriiska diiday in uu arrintaas yeelo, ayaa sabab u ahayd kacdoonka Somaalida. Sayyid Maxamed waxuu la dagaalamay Ingiriiska oo ay la jiraan ciidamo kale muddo 20 sano. Inkastoo dagaalka looga guuleystay, Sayyid Maxamed waxuu asigana ku guuleystay in uu fashaliyo mashruucii Ingiriiska. Dagaalka lagu furay hadda ummadda Somaaliyeed ma aha mid aan lug ku lahayn dagaal diineed. Waxaa la ogyahay in Somaalida ay aad iyo aad ugu adagtahay Islaamnimada oo la rabo in la dibciyo. Meesha ugu fudud oo laga soo galay oo xoogga la saaray waa albaabada loo furay qaxootiga Somaalida, weliba si weyn loogu soo dhoweeyay kuwa carruurta yaryar lahaa. Waa wax la garan karay in waxa loo dan leyahay ay ahaayeen carruurta oo lagu xisaabtamay in toban sano markay meel joogaan ay si caadi ah loo gashan karo waxii la rabo. Somaalida qarkood markay ******** sida wax u socdaan, iyo waxii ay ka arkeen ama maqleen carruurtooda, waxa qasab ku noqotay inay carruurta ula carraraan dalal kale oo lagu badbaadiyo, qaarna waxay dib ugu celiyeen dalka hooyo. Sidaa darteed madaxda Maxkamadaha Islaamiga ee manta Ilahay siiyay awood ay wax ku qabsadaan, waa inay waajib iska saaraan sidii loo abuuri lahaa jawi ay dadka faraha badan ee u baahan in ay carruurtooda ka badbaadiyaan dhibaatada dibadaha ku haysta si ay dalka ugu soo celiyaan. Waxaan ka war haynaa waalidiin badan oo dibadaha ku nool in ay ka walwalsan mustaqbalka carruurtooda oo si aan la sheegi karin u jecel in ay dalka keenaan oo ay dugsi ka geliyaan. Maadaama ay Somaaliya duruufaha u saamixin ilaa hadda, qaar waxay carruurta geeyeen dalal diinta Islamka lagu barto, hase yeeshe, haddii mar Xamar is beddel ka dhacay, shaki ma laha in la wada iman doono. Maxkamadaha waa in ay muujiyaan in dicaayadaha socda oo ku wajahan in dadka laga sii didiyo dalka waxba ka jirin. Shacabka waa in ay arkaan in isbeddelka uu keenay fa’iido la taaban karo oo ay Maxkamadaha Islaamiga noqon sida kuwii shalay dartooda looga tagay dalka oo kale. Haddaba, marka isbeddelka ka dhacay Xamar oo Maxkamadaha qabsadeen maamulkiisa, waxaa soo baxay dad Somaali ah oo caqli qaba oo ka faalloodaan arrimo dhacay. Hanuunintii yareed ay qaateen intii ay joogeen dalalka shisheeye ayaa ku dhalisay in ay dhaleeceeyaan falkii ay ku ka kaceen koox la sheegay in ay ka mid ahayeen ciidanka Maxkamadaha, kuwaas oo xaflad aroos muusikadii lagu ciyaaraayay ka joojiyay. Waxaa su’aal ah: “Ma waxaa dhaantay markii ay dagaal-ooge-yaasha iyo Muriyaanta joogeen oo markay meel aroos jiro maqlaan ay weerari jireen oo dahabka iyo dharka iyo shaashka ka furan jireen dumarka oo gabdhaha yar-yarna halkaas ku fara xumeyn jireen? Haddii labadaas la kala dooran lahaa, qofka caqliga qaba waxuu dooran lahaa kan hore, hase yeeshee, waxuu ka tanasuli lahaa wax yar oo ah xornimadii ciyaarta iyo wax yaalaha qarkooda oo ay “ciidamada” u arkeen ansha xumo. Wax walba sicirkiisa ayuu leeyahay. Waxna qaado, waxna ka tag, ayay maanta xaaladda taagantahay. Maanta waxa la dooranaayo waa nabad, wax kasta qiimahiisa ha ahaadee. Ilbax nimada lagu andacoonaayo iyo xuquuqul insaanka dadka qaarkood u doodaayaan ma waxaa loola jeeda in wiilka xaq u leeyahay in uu dhegaha duran karo uu dhego-dhego gashan karo iyo timaha xagga dambe ka xirto sida gabdhaha iyo gabdhahana jirkooda qaawiyaan? U malaynmaayo in uu jiro qof Somaali ah oo yeelaayo in ilmahiisa, wiilal ama gabdho oo asigoo jecel oo raalli ka ah u fasaxaayo falalkaas. Nassiibdarrada nagu dhacay waxay tahay in aan noqonay kuwii la dhihi jiray “Gadaal ka gaar, Goob dubis.” Qaar baa qora in Maxkadamaha ay keeni doonaan ciriiri iyo cadaadis. Lama malayn karo in ay dhici karaan cadaadis ka badan kuwii la soo maray toban iyo shantii sano ee la soo dhaafay oo lagu hoos jiray warlordska. Kee baan dooran lahayn, kan yiri salaad duko oo aniga oo nabad qaba masjidka tegi karo kana soo noqon karo iyo kii anigoo masjidka ku sii jeedo jidka ii joogsaday oo qori caaraddisa igu yiri “waryaa ka baxa macaawista.” Shaki ma laha waxaan dooran lahaay kan nabadda dhaliyay. Wax kasta qiimahiisa ayuu leeyahay. Nabaddana qiimaheeda ayay leedahay. Nafta iyo nabadda ayaa wax kasta ka weyn. Koleyba cadawgaaga janno kasta aad gasho waxuu kaaga dhigaaya naar; uu kugu leeyahay diid. Wanaag markaad hesho waxuu kugu dhalinaaya naceeb. Markii shacabka Amerika, oo ah kan ugu horeeyo ee ku andacoodo in uu yahay kii keenay “xuquuqul insaanka” in la dhowro oo ay ku micnyeeyaan in qof walba waxuu rabo uu sameeyo in uu xur u yahay iyo “dimooqradiyada” in adduunka laga hirgeliyo, waa laga ilaaliyaa filmada anshaxa xun iyo kuwa carruurta bara waxyaalaha ay ku kici karaan markaay TVyada ama filmada ka arkaan. Markuu ka qayliyey telefoonadii oo laga dhegeysanaayo oo waxii uu ku hadlo la duubaayo, emailkiisa dhexda laga qabsado oo waraaqahiisa la furo, waxaa loogu jawaabay in ammanka shacabka uu ka horeeyo waxaa uu qofka jecelyahay. Waa sida qof moto wada oo la yiri dhaqaaqaysid gasho koofiyadda birta ah. Ma aha cadaadis u Booliska ku haayo dadkaas; waxay dan u tahay qofka mootada wada oo haddii uu shil galo si madaxa, oo ah meesha jirka ugu darran, wax u gaarin. Waxa ugu weyn ay soo rogi karaan Maxkamadaha Islaamiga, waa “Ilahay ka cabso, oo salaadda tuko.” Waxaas ayaa la buun-buuniyay oo laga dhigay wax aan caadi ahayn oo kale. Qofka Muslimka ahna in waxaas loo sheegoba ma aha. Waa wax waajib ku ah in uu shanta salaad tukado. Ilaa intii la soo maray waqtigaan dambe, Somaaliya maanta maalin uga fiican ma soo marin, xitaa haddii hal habeen kali ah nabad lagu seexday. Qaylada dhacayso ma aha naxriis naloo haayo ee waxaa laga cabsi qabaa in aan gaarno gobanimo run ah oo buuxda oo ka madax bannaan faragelin shisheeye. Somaaliya waa dalka ugu baaxadda weyn ee Geeska Afrika oo dadkiisa Muslim ah. Waxaan ku jirnaa dadka lagala dagaalamaayo xagga diinta oo si dibloomaasi ah loogu dhawaaqo “the clash of civilizations.” Qorshahaas waxa ka mid ah sida Madaxweynehii hore ee Kenya, Daniel arap Moi, yiri markuu ka dhacay kursiga dalkiisa asigoo ka hadlaayay dalka Maraykanka bishii September 2003 in: “Dalalka deriska la ah waxay ka baqaayiin Somaaliya oo dib-mideysan oo barwaaqeysan in ay u soo jeesato dhulalka ka maqan. (Its neighbours feared that a reunited and prosperous nation might resurrect Somalia’s territorial claims). Warka waa intaas. Waxaan shaki ku jirin, haddii guusha atkaato, in aan noqon doono dalka ugu fiican adduunka, ma aha Afrika oo kali ah, maxaa yeelaay dalalka Afrika qaarkood, hadda oo aan kala daadsanahay, ayan dhaanaa. Waxaa la gaaray waqtigii aan madaxa kor u soo qaadi lahayn. Hase yeeshee, jidgoysyo ka sii darran kuwii dagaal-ooge-yaashii ayaa dalka loo diyaarinaayaa in loo dhigo. Ummaddaan oo muddo dheer ciriiri ku jirtay, Ilahay ha ammaansado. MOHAMED OSMAN OMAR mosman65@yahoo.com

Story Highlights ------------ • Police say no gun was found in victims' car • Police say shooting stemmed from undercover operation inside the club • Relatives say dead man was Sean Bell, due to get married Saturday • Police shot Bell and two other men as they left strip club ----------- NEW YORK (AP) -- Police fired 50 rounds Saturday at a car of unarmed men leaving a bachelor party at a strip club, killing the groom on his wedding day in a shooting that drew a furious outcry from family members and community leaders. The spray of bullets hit the car 21 times, after the vehicle rammed into an undercover officer and then an unmarked NYPD minivan twice, police said. Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly would not say if the collisions were what prompted police to open fire. It was too early to say whether the shooting was justified, Kelly said. (Watch questions raised by groom's shooting ) Police thought one of the men in the car might have had a gun. But police found no weapons. "Although it is too early to draw conclusions about this morning's shootings ... we know that the NYPD officers on the scene had reason to believe that an altercation involving a firearm was about to happen and were trying to stop it," Mayor Michael Bloomberg said in a statement. Kelly said the incident stemmed from an undercover operation inside the strip club. Seven officers in plain clothes were investigating the Kalua Cabaret, and five were involved in the shooting. The gunfire also hit nearby homes and a train station, though no residents were injured. A veteran officer fired his weapon 31 times, emptying two full magazines, Kelly said. All the officers carried 9 mm handguns. The groom, who was driving, was identified as Sean Bell, 23. Joseph Guzman, 31, was in the front seat and was shot at least 11 times. Trent Benefield, 23, who was in the back seat, was hit three times. Both men were taken to Mary Immaculate Hospital. Guzman was listed in critical condition and Benefield was in stable condition. Kelly said there may have been a fourth person in the car who fled the scene. Three officers, including the officer hit by the car, were treated and released. Another detective remained hospitalized for blood pressure, Kelly said. Abraham Kamara, 38, who lives a few blocks from the club, said he was getting ready for work at about 4 a.m. when he heard bursts of gunfire. "First it was like four shots," he said. "And then it was like pop-pop-pop like 12 times." A grand jury was investigating the incident. Kelly said none of the five veteran officers had ever discharged their weapons in the line of duty. He has not been able to interview the officers because the district attorney must first complete an investigation, he said. The undercover officers were inside the club to document illicit activity, Kelly said. With one more violation the club would be shut down, Kelly said. He said the establishment has a "chronic history of narcotics, prostitution and weapons complaints." Sharpton joins protests The shooting drew angry protests from family members and the Rev. Al Sharpton. Sharpton went to the hospitals where the men were taken and afterward held news conferences. At Jamaica Hospital, the civil rights advocate stood with about two dozen members of Bell's and his fiancee's family. "I will stand with this family," he said. "This stinks. Something about the story being told did not seem right." Sharpton said Bell and his fiancee had two children, ages 3 years and 5 months. At Mary Immaculate Hospital, Sharpton said he was outraged to find the survivors handcuffed to their hospital beds. He said Guzman suffered 17 wounds, though it was unclear how many were bullet wounds, and Benefield was shot three times. "We're not anti-police ... we're anti-police brutality," he said. The two were unshackled later Saturday and have not been charged with a crime. Robert Porter, who identified himself as Bell's first cousin, said he was supposed to be a DJ at the wedding. He said about 250 people were invited and were flying in from all over the country. He said his cousin wasn't the type to confront police and that he was "on the straight and narrow." "I still don't want to believe it," Porter said, "a beautiful day like this, and he was going to have a beautiful wedding, he was going to live forever with his wife and children. And this happened." In 1999, police killed Amadou Diallo, an unarmed West African immigrant who was shot 19 times in the Bronx. The four officers in that case were acquitted of criminal charges. And in 2003, Ousmane Zongo, 43, a native of the western African country of Burkina Faso who repaired art and musical instruments in a Manhattan warehouse, was shot to death during a police raid. Zongo was hit four times, twice in the back. Copyright 2006 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
