 Hey, they did introduce you to the Parliamentary system
 
As if they never had their far superior PANCHAYAT SYSTEM run since the Sarsawati period - a good 3400 years ago.
 
Are you an absoloute utter idiot or just trying to graduate to that level with such ignorant assertions? We are not all peasants here, if you wish to parley with us you have to be just a wee bit serious about what you blow out of your mouth.

I have all my sympathies with your idiotic government's plight in Afghanistan. I am lost for words for offering my very sincere condolence not just for what yu are facing in my country, but far more for what you are going to face on your very own Aunt Ekanami front.
Good luck!

Similar to the monarchial system of many European lands, except England after the Magna Carta:  http://www.country-studies.com/nepal/the-panchayat-system.html

Thanks for reminding me about this, especially since it was barely touched on in my history class.

Why is this system superior to the parlimentary system?

Again with the personal attacks.  This is typical when another really has no refute to a claim.

I have limited background regarding India and the Middle-East, only about two semester's worth. If you know regarding far more regarding an issue, or historical background information that I missed, I am all ears.

No one person can possible know all history, or all about any other discipline.

Yep, our economy sucks at the moment, but heck, it sucked after 9/11 too.  At the moment oil prices are dropping, and the stock market is making a rally, after Wbya call for the overturn of offshore drilling.

Can you confirm that Islam outlawed the parliamentary system?  If that is so, then are Muslims allowed to vote in parliamentary elections?

Hello Ron.
 
Whoops!. . .I guess my statement was a little confusing. I was adderessing 2 seperate issues ; parliament & suttee.
 
By, 'Islam outlawed stuff like that centuries ago' - I was referring to practises like Suttee. Which aspacia said the British 'Raj' banned. . . I was not referring to Parliamentary elections.
 
And yes, Muslims are allowed to vote in the elections of thier respective States/Countries - whether the candidates are muslim or nonmuslim - doesnt matter. Also, tho my knowlesge of govts/parliaments etc is weak, Islam is not specifically against different types of governments, as long as they are working for the good of the people.
