The items found on this blog were written during the past few years and strictly reflect my own opinions. Because these articles deal with difficult issues they are bound to be controversial. They reflect my personal analysis based on the limited information that I have. I am certainly no expert and fully respect different opinions. Difficult issues would not be difficult if there were clear-cut answers. Although you will see in reading some of my material, I don't like being pigeonholed with a label, I will admit to being politically independent with a tendency to be more conservative fiscally and slightly more liberal with regard to social issues. Having lived through the 1940's, I have a great appreciation for the sacrifices made by our armed forces and, in fact, all Americans during World War II. The greatness of this country shone bright as we rehabilitated and rebuilt our enemies after winning that war. I am very patriotic and proud of our country. While we are far from perfect, we're not as far from that ideal as most other countries in the world.

 Stuart’s Thoughts    3/13/2022



The United Nations (just wondering)



The primary purpose of The United Nations, formed at the end of WW2, was to maintain world peace and harmony.  The entire world wished to prevent another World War. In various flareups threatening world peace since 1945, United Nations peace keeping forces have been deployed to hotspots to help fulfill that goal.  Why today, in 2022, do we hear nothing of UN efforts to intervene in Russia’s aggression against Ukraine?  Where is the UN peacekeeping force?  Why has the UN forgotten about the reason for existence, i.e., to maintain world peace and harmony?  Just wondering!
