In one country it is identified as Sharia Law, based on an interpretation of Muslim dogma. In another country, it seems to be identified as Republican Law, based on Christian Nationalistic dogma. In both countries, women/girls/ladies/gals/females/lassies are the victims. In one country, Iran, the government is considered a Theocracy, a government by divine guidance or by officials who are regarded as divinely guided. In many theocracies, government leaders are members of the clergy, and the state's legal system is based on religious law. In another country, the United States of America, the Government has supposedly established a democracy, a system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives. But via Gerrymandering, Voter Restrictive laws, and the tired and dismal idea of Federalism, an overarching national government is responsible for broader governance of larger territorial areas, while the smaller subdivisions, states, and cities govern the issues of local concern.
Be VERY WARY FOLKS, it may have two different names, but the Devil is one and the same!
