Mayor de Blasio: Muslim Holidays Now Recognized by NYC Public Schools | Mediaite

Mayor Bill de Blasio announced today that New York City public schools will now recognize Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Fitr, the two most important Muslim holidays, and that all students will get those days off school.

Just a decade after 9/11 we've seen the Hamas flag flying from Brooklyn Bridge, a mosque nearly built near Ground Zero and now this. I get that it's "fair," but until the majority of American Imams renounce terrorism, it is also stupid.
