question:
(CNN) When France enacted its ban on "ostentatious symbols" in public schools in 2004, the so-called "veil ban" was justified under the guise of a warped form of European cultural relativism. It's just the French way, you see. Over the years, legislation in France has continued to encroach into the private sphere of Muslim citizens, with a keen focus on women. Muslim women in headscarves have been prohibited from working in private nurseries. Mothers in headscarves have been banned from school outings. Women in face veils are prohibited from walking the streets, using hospitals or public transport. Students in long skirts are sent home for wearing "religious clothing." Non-pork alternatives have been removed from school menus.Myriam Francois believes the burkini ban is just the latest excuse to harass MuslimsFrench legislation has been encroaching on the private sphere of Muslims for years, she says 
 Question:Today, in a France of over 5 million _, it seems that a very similar rule applies.
answer:
Muslim


question:
(CNN) -- A timid judge is a lawless judge. U.S. District Court Judge Martin Feldman, it would seem, is not a timid judge. In deciding to lift the Department of the Interior's six-month moratorium on deep water drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, Feldman certainly looks like a decisive jurist. His criticisms of the department's ban were forceful. But Feldman was remarkably selective in his criticism. He was willing to scrutinize the government harshly, but not the oil industry. His opinion made important points about the department's mistakes. He noted that the moratorium affects drilling in water deeper than 500 feet, even though a scientific panel that the department commissioned expressed concern with wells in water deeper than 1,000 feet.Jeffrey Rachlinski says judge is willing to scrutinize terms of ban, but not oil industry so muchJudge says BP spill doesn't presage others; but companies still lack sound disaster plansOil companies' suit shows they'd like to keep drilling as though nothing has happened, he saysRachlinski: Ban would force oil companies to come up with plan to prevent future disasters 
 Question:Deepwater drilling is and will remain a valuable part of _'s energy supply.
answer:
U.S.
