#1 Tell ya what:

Secular courts are the default and hand out judgments for secular matters.

For religious matters, if all parties opt to, they can also take their case to a sharia court.

Honestly, it seems fair to me. Wouldn't be perfect, but it would be about as good as you could do and still maintain some semblence of separation between church and state.

#2 Gorb, that is how it was. The islamists are not happy with it. I have on my mind something more radical. ;-)

#3 Sharia law may trump secular law. But Remington law trumps Sharia law. Unfortunately Kalashnikov law often trumps secular law. Which leaves the question 'Does Remington law trump Kalashnikov law?' It seems that to Pelosi and friends the answer is 'No.'

#4 The Global War on Terrorism won't be finished until every single last person who openly advocates the imposition of sharia law is dead or dieing. Period.
