The David Hunter Perspective - 2022-09-14

Read on for today's agenda below prepared by David (thank you very much). - Retired US Diplomat to 5 different nations  David Hunter shares his knowledge, passion, interest, and experience.

1) Queen Elizabeth II is Dead, But Will the Monarchy Survive?:  Elizabeth lived to the  ripe age of 96, and was the longest serving Monarch in England's history.  She is receiving accolades from all sides for her graceful rule over ''her subjects''.  Now son Charles will become King Charles III, titled 'Liege Lord of the Empire', 'Defender of the Faith', etc.  This assumes there still is an Empire, and that the UK has only one faith?   His face will likely replace his mother's on  currencies and stamps of 'domains' ruled abroad.   But will the Monarchy survive?  If yes, how might it change?

2)  The Legacy of Charles as King of the British Isles:  The New King of the United Kingdom is titled 'Charles the Third'.  That means there must have been a Charles the First and Charles the Second, right?   What were their reigns noted for?  Are they a good omen for this latest King named Charles?

3)  Ukraine Military Achieving Victory in the Donbass?:  This past week Ukraine's Army has launched two separate counter-attacks against the Russian invader.  The first is in Kherson, in the south, where approx. 20,000 Russian troops are trapped and unable to retreat. The other front is in the north, in Kharkiv and Izum.  That area had been held by Russia since early in the invasion.  Is this a turning point in the war?
