The innocent Muslims who died on 9/11

"Mrs. Traoré is the widow of one of roughly 60 Muslims — cooks, businessmen, emergency responders and airline passengers — believed to have died on 9/11. It is a group that has been little examined, and no precisely reliable count of their ranks exists. But their stories, when told, have frequently been offered as counterweights in the latest public argument over terrorism and Islam."

Thank You to both Mojo and Anonymous for linking to the moving NY Times article about Mrs. Traore and her family and the equally moving comment listing the Muslim victims of 9/11.

I'd also like to know the source of that list. CAIR published a list which I found via google search and it mentions a heroic brother (Abdu Malahi) that the list submitted by Anonymous does not include.

Others whom I think are especially notable (for those who criticize the Park51/Cordoba House project and Muslims in general) are NYPD cadet Mohammad Hamdani and a married couple who perished, Rahmah Salie & Michael Theodoridis. Sister Rahma was 7 months pregnant at the time.
