Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Al-Aqsa is in danger" in English language version.
The annual "al-Aqsa in danger" commemorations held in Umm al-Fahm's soccer stadium since 1996 are by far the biggest and best-attended events on the Arab sector's political calendar. Especially prominent was a gathering in 1998, which interposed the commemoration of Muhammad's ascent to heaven from the al-Aqsa mosque-the "night of the nocturnal ascent" (al-isra wal-miraj) - the only holy day in the Islamic calendar linked to the Temple Mount, as well as the fiftieth anniversary of the Nakba (catastrophe referring to Israel's victory and creation in the War of 1948). Attended by over 30,000 people, it far outshone the commemoration ceremonies organized by the "national" (non-Islamic) groups. The latter attracted only a few hundred attendees, even according to sources sympathetic to them.
