        How is this an unusual case study? Cutting off the clitoris of young girls is permitted under Sharia law but not under American law. Simple.

        Why are we okay circumcising little boys? You can't be a okay with one and completely be disgusted by the other just because it is uncommon.

        Well, the US has let these people do what they want while punishing Christians and repressing their religious rights.
