"We pretty much just follow whatever the policies are of the national organization, whatever votes they have at the different councils," said Kevin Abdalla, the assistant scout mater for Troop 64.

Is that sort of a Muzzie surname?

Dunno if the guy is Moslem but Abdalla is probably derived from Abdullah or abd Allah, meaning “slave of Allah.”

It is mangled enough that the family might no longer be Moslem.
