The speakers list for the conference included Muslim Brotherhood figures Jamal Badawi, a leader of the Islamic Society of North America and the Council on American Islamic Relations; Iqbal Sacranie, former head of the Muslim Council of Britain; and Yusuf Islam (formerly known as Cat Stevens). Also attending, according to the news report, was Sheikh Salman Al Oudah (aka Salman Al Awda), a Saudi sheikh until recently known to be a sympathizer of Osama Bin Laden.
