National Review:  “f you thought only U.S. laws ruled the land, you thought wrong — at least according to a crazy decision recently handed down by a federal judge in Oklahoma. . . . . [Oklahoma] voters overwhelmingly approved a referendum that directs courts to ‘rely on federal and state law when deciding cases’ and forbids ‘courts from considering or using international law’ or ‘Sharia law.’  . . .  Judge Micki Miles-LaGrange . . . promptly issued a temporary restraining order, putting the people’s voice on hold.”
