I'm not so sure about that. i just found a news article on their site quoting berman and using the ccf as a source for info.

I'm pretty sure afmp is just another berman site

As the quote derives from a large conference, nothing in our response was intended to indicate that the Consumer Freedom folks were the only ones who heard it or recorded it. The Fall 2002 Intelligence Report provides, as far as we know, SPLC’s first use of the PeTA quote. Richard Berman and the Center for Consumer Freedom have published the quote, or parts of it, in numerous editorials, letters, and releases, including editorials printed by USA Today, first appearing in November 2001 (authored by Berman who was then “executive director of The Guest Choice Network, a coalition of restaurant and tavern operators”); on their own Internet site (April 2002); in the Daily Oklahoman (19 May 2002, David Martosko, research director for the Center for Consumer Freedom); through the Americans for Medical Progress site on (July 2002; Berman cited as the source); and the Grand Forks Herald (1 Jul. 2002; authored by Richard Berman). The quotes have continued to appear on a regular basis in editorials by David Martosko, (The Weekly Standard, 14 Oct. 2002; Virginia’s Richmond Times Dispatch, 25 Oct. 2002; the Providence Journal of Rhode Island, 18 Nov. 2002; The Washington Times, 24 Nov. 2002; The Capital of Annapolis, Maryland, 5 Dec. 2002) and Richard Berman (USA Today, 16 Apr. 2003).

Actually, AMP isn't a new group. It arose out of the last big flurry of industry-fronted attacks against animal rights about a decade ago. It's becoming more visible now, however, riding on the coattails of CCF and the current political climate. (What is it about wartime that causes all the anti-animal sentiment to crawl out of the woodwork?)
Here's an article from 1993 about the lovely activities of AMP and U.S. Surgical, the vivisection company that originally founded and funded it. http://www.animalpeoplenews.org/93/4/Woofs%20and%20growls...

Right. I guess I made it sound as if I thought it was new. My bad. I'm just saying that their recent site is even more despicable than CCF's, and has recently gained a higher profile, much as peace pointed out.

Smell of blood/profit.
