Afghanistan Shootings: Accused Soldier Flown To Kuwait, Panetta And Karzai Talk
On Sharia law, there was a very intense 2008 movie about the stoning of a woman falsely accused by her adulterous criminal husband of cheating on him. He was a political force in the tiny Iranian village where this took place. Religious law can be abused for any number of reasons. With the many checks and balances though in our civil system, I cannot really see this kind of thing happening in the US, unless someone with a very religious agenda comes to power in the US.
