The Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan works for a democratic, secular country. In some articles they have supported a government by the King.It is better to write to them so that they can explain what they are working for.
The King of Afghanistan was living in Italy, may return or might be meeting with Afghanistan peoples in Pakistan.
He is referred to using the word Shah. The laws and customs of Afghanistan with a government like this would not be a copy of the Shah of Iran. The similarity is in the use of the word-title Shah and the close geographic locations.
Afghanistan has an indigenous assembly which the Shah has advocated for and he is on record saying that this assembly could meet to become a governing body.

When the Soviet forces occupied the country they used anti-personnel mines to limit opposition groups. Today over 1 million Afghani's live in refugee camps in Iran while nearly 2 million live in refugee camps in Pakistan. This demonstrates the value of national boundaries.","numcomment":0,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/","filesize":null,"article_url":"\/news\/2001\/11\/13133.php"},"attachments":[],"comments":[]}
