M. Zuhdi Jasser

M. Zuhdi Jasser founded the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, a right-wing lobby group, in 2003 which works in collaboration with notorious Islamophobe Daniel Pipes through his front group, Center for Islamic Pluralism (CIP). The group claims to battle "Islamo-facsism" and to be "a leading voice for liberty-minded Muslims in America in the war on terror."[1] In the "members" section on its website, it lists only one individual -- its founder, Zuhdi Jasser[2], who is also "one of the founding members" of CIP, by his own account.[3] The group also has Pipes' endorsement of course.[4]
