March 23rd Honor George Helm in Pohakuloa protest
Tuesday, March 15th, 2022George Helm
Protect Pohakuloa! Stop the Bombing!
Gathering at PTA Main Gate
10 AM – Noon
Wed. March 23, 2022
(Carpools leave Hilo 9 AM from Komohana and Saddle Rd.)
March 23 is the Birthday of George Helm who was a leader of the Protect Kaho’olawe Ohana (PKO). George lost his life in 1977 along with Kimo Mitchell in the movement to Stop the Bombing of Kaho’olawe. The bombing was eventually stopped in 1990 due to the dedication of George, Kimo, and many others of the PKO movement. George, and kupuna of that movement remain an inspiration in our efforts to Stop the Bombing of Pohakuloa.
Please join us on March 23rd to honor George and Protect Pohakulo and Stop the Bombing. The Pohakuloa Training Area (PTA), otherwise known as the Pohakuloa Toxic Area, is a 133,000-acre military live-fire range in the center of Hawaii Island that has been bombed for more than 75 years. Pohakuloa is nearly 5 times the size of Kaho’olawe. Millions of live rounds are fired annually at PTA and have involved a wide range of weapons and toxins, including radioactive Depleted Uranium (DU) radiation. When DU metal is hit with high explosives it is turned into DU oxide particles that can be carried long distances in the wind and easily inhaled causing various cancers and other serious health problems.
Everyone on the Big Island is downhill and downwind from PTA which is at 6500 feet elevation. The land, water, air, people, plants, and animals, including the thousands of troops who train at PTA, are all part of a Military Sacrifice Zone. The bombing must be stopped, the military mess cleaned up, and the land returned to the Hawaiian people. Mahalo to Liam O’Malley of Lanihuli Farm for initiating this action in honor of George Helm.
Forever Aloha Aina!

This week’s Peace leaflet below
Most Dangerous Award
Goes to Donald J. Trump!
– Photo Op Hospital Joy Ride, Maskless Gasping for Air on Return to the White House, Hosting Super-Spreader Covid Events, Voter Suppression efforts, including Vote by Mail legal challenges in many states, etc. etc. But …
BEWARE! Only the Most Desperate and Dangerous would proclaim a State of Emergency and launch nuclear weapons to avoid being declared “A LOSER.”
Trump has immediate access to nuclear launch codes at all times

Among the many drugs Donald Trump is taking for Covid at taxpayers expense is dexamethasone, a steroid that has potential side effects including mental problems such as aggression, agitation, anxiety, and delusions. Here is the link to the Newsweek article that states all the side effects:
The Military Doctors from Walter Reed Hospital are not telling the whole truth about Trump’s condition. It appears far more serious than what’s being said. And what about your Taxes Donald? You appear to be a serial tax-evader!
Stop Trump! Save Lives! Vote! Organize!
