Kicking a CAIR Extremist Off the Human Relations Commission
In addition to the connection to CAIR, there is a connection to the Holy Land Foundation in Richardson, TX, a suburb of Dallas (where he was from).
This happened back in October. Revenge by CAIR perhaps?
Regarding your link in post no. 105, let's post a bit more here.

"Kicking a CAIR Extremist Off the Human Relations Commission"
By Steven Emerson

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "On October 18, the Phoenix City Council removed an individual named Marwan Ahmad from his position on the Phoenix Human Relations Commission (PHRC). The mission of the PHRC, comprised of “volunteer citizens appointed by the Mayor and City Council,” is to “advocate and promote respect and understanding among all groups, to discourage all manner and manifestation of discriminatory practices and to monitor any such abuses and to aid in correcting such practices.” Mr. Ahmad, through his words and deeds, has demonstrated time and again that he is incapable of living up to such lofty goals, and as such, the City Council made the correct move in taking him off the PHRC.
Ahmad, a Phoenix-based publisher, produces two radical newspapers, the English language “Muslim Voice” and the Arabic language “Arab Voice.” The editorial position of both papers is unapologetically pro-Hamas, including a February 2006 editorial in the “Arab Voice” hailing Hamas’ election victory in the West Bank and Gaza. A March 2006 article by Mr. Ahmad in the “Muslim Voice” invokes an Islamic parable to attack the position of the U.S. government and the international community on withholding support for the Hamas government until it renounces violence and recognizes Israel; Mr Ahmad further complains about the Treasury Department’s closing of the Hamas-linked charity, the Holy Land Foundation, whose leadership is set to go on trial next year for funneling millions of dollars to Hamas."
