Also note:
ASMA : AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR MUSLIM ADVANCEMENT
ASMA : AMERICAN SUFI MUSLIM ASSOCIATION
Feisal founded both of these groups with different names but the same acronym... or are they the same group? I notice a lot of subversive groups - take EPIC, for example which is also named similarly. Does this serve the same purpose as changing the names of terrorist groups once one name has gotten "soiled" by being put on the State Dept or Treasury Dept watch lists where the new name requires law enforcement to go through the process of getting the new name redesignated and prove the same perps are involved before they can go after the group?
