'''Al-Quds Day''' (Arabic: {{iarabic|يوم القدس}}) takes place every year on the last [[Friday]] of the month of [[Ramadan]]. Soon after the [[Islamic revolution in Iran]], [[Imam Khomeini]] called on Muslims to dedicate this day to demanding the rights of oppressed Muslims around the world - particularly in [[Palestine]]. On this day, rallies are organized before [[Friday prayer]] to protest against the occupation of Palestine and the oppression of its people.

Western news agencies generally attempt to play down the events of 'Al-Quds day'.  They either remain silent or use vague expressions such as 'thousands' to show that the number of protesters is not significant.  Typically, a few sentences from the Iranian president's speech are quoted out of context in order to give the impression that Israel is being oppressed.
