Photo of Wildfire started at Pohakuloa in Aug. 2022 that burned more than 17,000 acres, including more than 12,000 acres off PTA in endangered species habitat. The US military has admitted to starting 892 wildfires at Pohakuloa from military activities since 1975.

     I’m amazed at how ignorant many Hawaii elected officials are about what’s happening at Pohakuloa, a training ground for nuclear war.  Reminds me of Germans living around Auschwitz, a concentration and extermination camp, who were told it was a family camp. It’s an indictment of our officials and our local news media. It is a failure to look into what is going on, and military secrecy about what is taking place in the center of our island home.  We all need to take off the blinders. We need serious change. 

     Ask election candidates and officials hard questions: Pohakuloa has been bombed and shelled for more than 80 years with a wide variety of weapons and military toxins, including radiation weapons. Millions of live rounds are fired annually at PTA. What are you going to do to prevent Pohakuloa from becoming our Big Island’s “Red Hill” toxic water disaster, our Lahaina firestorm from bombing and shelling in the dry windy Saddle Area, and all of us on Hawaii Island from becoming nuclear (and other airborne) downwind victims of military toxins?

Please Speak Out! Mahalo.

Hawaii Fake Statehood Day!

                                           Hawaii Statehood Day or Admission Day, as it is also called, is a holiday in the State of Hawaii. It is a day celebrated annually on the third Friday in August when Hawaii allegedly became the 50^th State of the United States. In 2024, that date of celebration is Friday, August 16. The only problem is Hawaii Statehood Day is an illegal fraud, repeated over and over for more than 50 years.

We need to learn the true history of Hawaii., not the fake history proclaimed by the US Empire. Here are some important historical truths.  No Lie Can Live Forever!

1. Hawaii was recognized as an independent nation by the Family of Nations in 1843.

2. In 1887, a Bayonet Constitution was forced upon Hawaii King David Kalakaua by US Sugar Barons that gave exclusive use of Pearl Harbor to the US military and took away many Hawaiian rights.

3. In 1893, these same Sugar Barons, with the direct assistance of US military troops overthrew the Hawaiian government of Queen Lili’uokalani.

4. In 1898, the US declared Hawaii was annexed to the US. The truth is that the annexation of Hawaii never legally happened. Annexation requires a signed treaty and approval by a 2/3 vote of the US Senate. No treaty of annexation was ever signed and only a resolution was passed in the US.

5. Since Hawaii was never legally annexed, it never legally became a territory of the US, and therefore never legally could become a state of the US.

     The truth is Hawaii continues to be an illegally occupied Independent Nation by the US Empire. It first occurred on behalf of US Sugar barons and the US military. The Sugar plantations are gone elsewhere to exploit people and land, but many of the sugar baron descendants continue to illegally occupy large portions of Hawaiian land. The US military has expanded its presence to include more than 100 military installations and has contaminated much of the land and water with a wide range of toxins. The military has seized large portions of Hawaiian lands by Presidential and governor executive orders, and state land leases. Here on Hawaii Island a Presidential executive order seized 84,000 acres of Hawaiian land at Pohakuloa, and the military leased 23,000 additional acres at Pohakuloa from the Fake state for 65 years. All for a total cost of $1.00 for the 65 years. That lease and other $1 military leases on Oahu are up for renewal. Pray tell, what will Fake state officials do?

     The Sugar plantations have been replaced by a corporate-controlled tourist industry and high-tech barons now occupying large acreages of Hawaiian lands. Larry Ellison of Oracle Corp controls 98% of Lanai, Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook has a giant compound on Kauai that includes a dozen buildings, at least 30 bedrooms and bathrooms, 11 treehouses connected by rope bridges, and even a tunnel system that leads to a 5000-square foot underground bunker. Jeff Bezos of Amazon has put down stakes in Maui, Michael Dell of Dell Computers and Mark Beneoff of Sales Force are on Hawaii Island.

     Today Native Hawaiians are being pushed out of their homeland, priced out of corporate and high-tech controlled paradise. 15,000 Native Hawaiians are leaving Hawaii annually for the US continent. There are now more Hawaiians living in Los Vegas, LA, etc than in Hawaii itself. SHAMEFUL!
