Iraq's parliament started on Tuesday as Sunni's lawmaker's ended the boycott against the persecution of official's. Goverment official such as law maker's and goverment officials were not allowed to attend cabinent meeting's and the paraliment because of Sunni's Iraqiya bloc. The reason for the law was because of the vice president being accused of terrorism.Citizens werent happy of the law and started protesting, the protesting lead to 200 dead. Because of the boycott, the goverment went into crisis. The Iraq goverment then decided to take the paraliment ban away hopeing that this will help restore the goverment.
This is related to chapter 6 because this explains how the goverment excluded another part of the goverment. Just like how the king just made rules and started taxing the colonies without there approval. This evetualy lead to an uprising that caused the colonies to rebel and protest against the king. The fighting eventually lead to colonies having indipendant's against the king.
This relates to my life because I have seen people protest on tv for an important cause that involves the goverment. This way of life have been with our country for quite a while. Protesting against the king let the colonist's have indipendance just like we get to make a change.
I think that Iraq should secure there goverment better. If they were to check there officials they wouldnt have to deal with this ordeal. I do think that if they fix there goverment one piece at a time, then they will be able to restore their goverment.
