Today is the muslim holiday of Al-Isrá´wa-l-mi-´ray. [standard approximation of classical arabic] This holiday celebrates the Ascension of the Prophet (PBUH) from the rock of the dome in Jerusalem. (PBUH is a muslim protocol meaning peace be upon him similar to catholic "his holiness" etc.) Whether or not you like muslim ethno-cultural belief systems, you don´t have to that clever to know this is a highly sensitive day for World Islam.

did Reuters
THE OFFICIAL NEWS
mention that it was muslim holiday?
not a mention of why thousands of

Is that honest reporting of the news?
