You have had similar episodes of Shariah in Afghanistan, Mauritania, Somalia and FATA, none of them anything to write about.

And you may even have a situation where opposing hypocrisy in name of Islam will be interpreted as opposing Allah swt Himself.

Some people dont want Islamic laws because they dislike Islam, others dont want them because they are concerned about being stuck with a grossly imperfect application of Islamic laws

I agree with your assessment 100%
