What distinction does thoreau make between law and justice?

The correct answer is:  

The law is a means to justice.  

People obey the law because they believe is aligned with their social sense of justice. The law is not an end in itself, but solely a means to reach justice. When this connection between law and justice is forgotten, the laws themselves are bound to become a device of injustice.  

ayatollah khomeini can best be described as the leader who declared iran to be an islamic republic.

the group i'm selecting: greeks.

a first group of greek immigrants came to the us in the 1850s. the second group came to america starting in the 1890s due to economic opportunities they didn't have back in their home caused by the hardships of ottoman rule. greek immigration was 90% male, many of them expected to work and return to greece after earning enough capital, but ultimately had to remain in the us after the greek genocide.
