Author Describes the Dangers of Sharia Law to Women Around the World [AUDIO]
A pregnant Sudanese woman married to an American is sentenced to death by hanging in the country of her birth. Her crime? Becoming a Christian.
In Brooklyn, N.Y., a woman is beaten to death by her husband who, according to his defense attorney, "comes from a culture where he thinks it's appropriate conduct to hit his wife."
Joy Brighton, author of "Sharia-ism Is Here/The Battle to Control Women; And Everyone Else" was a guest on Wednesday's Mike Bastinelli show. She talked about her post 9/11 research into Sharia law, which is the law of the land in many Muslim countries, and how she feels it's creeping into some ares of the American justice system. She also talked about how some segments of the American media ignore how Muslim women are treated around the world, while being heavily critical of Christianity and Judaism.
