Bomber Biden Goes Ballistic!

On Sunday, Nov. 17, 2024, US President Joe Biden gave the Green-light to Ukraine to use US long-range missiles to strike deep inside Russia! On Nov. 19, missiles were fired.  Such missile strikes could quickly escalate to Nuclear War. Russia says such missile strikes would amount to a NATO declaration of war against Russia.

Stop the Madness! Ceasefire Now. Negotiate for Peace! Peace is a Victory for All.

Yugo was a freshman at UH Manoa who dropped out of school following the Pearl Harbor

attack to enlist in the Army to prove his loyalty as a Japanese American.

Within 5 years after the war he was jailed as an “Unamerican” under the McCarthy era. 

He was one of the Hawaii 39 jailed for union organizing. 

Yugo said his claim to fame was “He went from hero to Unamerican in less than 5 years.

Yugo lived at Malu ‘Aina for 7 years.

Behind Yugo in the photo are goodwill fruit gifts from Malu ‘Aina farm to the warship crew.
