The 2004 election was stolen. Kerry did not "lose" because he wasn't anti-war enough. That is preposterous. Kerry has been plenty anti-war. He, Murtha and Feingold have taken the lead to pressure the administration to end the war. Kerry was also the first to criticize Bush after the invasion. And the first to warn him not to invade without proper preparation, allies and completed weapons inspections.

You're going to see more and more solid evidence that Bush's dirty tricks teams stolen far in excess of 110,000 votes in Ohio, thus swinging the election. In other words, Kerry won.

And if the mainstream media hadn't given those 100% lying smearvets equal free air time on TV, if Bush hadn't put out six phony terrorist alerts, if a hurricane hadn't hit Florida right before the election for Bush to throw out 10 billion dollars in free money to swingvoters (where was he after Katrina?) and if Osama Bin Laden himself hadn't come out in support of Bush (by oppising him), then Kerry have won by even more.

MOGADISHU, Somalia - Radical Islamic militia fighters in Somalia shot and killed two people who were watching a banned World Cup soccer broadcast, a radio station reported Wednesday.

The hard-line Muslim fighters, who have banned watching television, opened fire after a crowd of teenagers defied their orders to leave a hall where a businessman was showing Tuesday's Germany-Italy match on satellite television, according to Shabelle Radio, an independent local station. It said the businessman and a teenage girl were killed.

Hard-line Muslim fighters, who wrested control of the Somali capital from warlords in June, have forbidden people from watching television or movies in line with their strict interpretation of Islam.

The militants of the Supreme Islamic Courts Council, who have established control in much of the south, have recently moved into parts of central Somalia, including the Mudug region where Tuesday's shooting occurred.

The leader of their group, Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys, has spent the past weeks in central Somalia recruiting fighters in his clan's native region.

Washington has accused the Islamic group of harboring al-Qaida leaders responsible for deadly 1998 bombings at the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.

Somalia has been without an effective government since largely clan-based warlords overthrew longtime dictator Mohamed Siad Barre in 1991 and then turned on each other, dividing the nation into a patchwork of rival fiefdoms.

A U.N.-backed transitional government is established only in the southern town of Baidoa, where leaders on Wednesday met officials from a regional East African group, the African Union, European Union and the Arab League to discuss plans for deploying peacekeepers.

The 24-member delegation held talks with President Abdullahi Yusuf, Prime Minister Ali Mohamed Gedi and parliamentary Speaker Sharif Hassan Sheikh Aden.

The team is expected to visit Mogadishu Thursday for talks with the Islamic group that controls the city and opposes the deployment of peacekeepers.
