Apologies, these posts are overlapping a little. I've seen you post before about the Caliphate and I am interested to hear more about your views and how common you think they are. Perhaps you could point me to another thread, i think this may have been discussed before?
As for only choosing leaders who didn't want the position, I wonder how often that happens in real life?
But as i say, without a system like democracy, which has an in-built mechanism for removing governments past their sell-by-date, then what you get is violence. Leaders like Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi and Assad have provided stable and long-lasting governments. But in the end, it takes a violent revolution to get rid of them.
True democracy started with Islam. Our Khaliphate is exemplar of the true democratic system which should govern a country. Unfortunately we don't have one anymore.
But it will come back, and when it does, the world and it's sister will wish they were Muslims living in the Muslim lands.

True, but does that excuse the previous governments inability to govern? How about those who step in - why can't they hold a previous government accountable for its crimes against its peoples? i tell you why - because the next govt plans the same thing.
Ig you follow politics, especially british politics - you will realise that it doesn't matter if its labour or tories who win it - they've got exactly the same agenda on the cards - they just choose their words very carefully to make it appear as if their agendas are different.
Foreign policy hasn't changed for the better, its gotten worse with each new replacement govt.
Add to that the fact that we're still in a recession, we only had releif from the recession in 1993 for a period of 12 years before we hit it again. Its a farce man.
The very system is corrupted because the government cannot be held on trial. That itself is a fail.
In Islamic Shariah law, the khaliph can be tried in a court of law. That's how a system should run.
I can only name a handful of politicians in the British govt who have been jailed in the past 25 yrs, for crimes that are crazy...
... But hey, the didn't ever hold Blair accountable for the murder of millions of innocents did they? I mean - who cares right? So you see, when the govt systems in place make you lose your humanity due to their propagation of war, you have no excuse - and are left with only one option. defend the very govt that made a monster out of your humanity. What else do you have left, right?
