TRIVIA... I wonder if this gentleman on the NY CAIR board is the same gentleman referred to in the CNS news article. Maybe it’s a just a common name. I don’t know. Anyway, trivia time:

SNIPPET from post no. 1 - quote:

(CNSNews.com) — A coalition of American Muslims has released a Public Service Announcement (PSA) to combat what they call “anti-Muslim rhetoric stemming from the Islamic center issue” in New York City. The PSA says Muslims do not want to “take over this country” and do not “support terrorism of any form.”

“We aren’t associated with any group. We maintain our independence and everyone who worked on this did pro bono and paid for the costs out of their own pockets,” Hassan Ahmad, project manager of the initiative called “My Faith My Voice,” told CNSNews.com.

“There is no organization behind this,” said Ahmad. “It’s just a network of American Muslims who wanted to do something about the rise of anti-Muslim rhetoric stemming from the Islamic center issue in New York. We have no ties to the Park 51 people.”

Although the name is common, I have a sneaking suspicion you’re correct. Where did the money come from for the PSA? Who produced it? Who all are the leadership of the group? Follow the money, folks! (unfortunately, the web filter at work is blocking me from doing much tracking; I can’t get to their website.)
