I have already addressed the question of "small" groups. The list at the link I provided has many statements from groups who appear to be atleast as "large" as the Spanish Islamic Commission. Unless someone has membership numbers and historical data for any given group, I don't see the line of reasoning behind claiming this particular declaration is somehow more significant than any of countless others.

Do you infer an argument from the question no matter who asks, or am I reading too much into it?

I infer ignorance in the question no matter who asks. Likely intentional in nature, though that would remain to be seen.

It's likely we'll see groups protest the declaration if only for its perceived support of U.S. policy.

If so, then they are just as likely to be protesting the declaration for its perceived support of U.S. policy and not for the denunciation of terrorism.
