If RIMPAC goes forward, extensive protests are planned. Presently protests are scheduled for Saturday, June 22 from 10 AM till Noon in Hilo on Kamehameha Ave near the Mo’oheau Bandstand, Saturday, July 6 from 10 AM till Noon at the Pohakuloa Main Gate, Saturday, July 20 from 10 AM till Noon fronting the Kamehameha Statue on Hilo Bayfront.

Protest

RIMPAC 2024!

29 countries including Israel!

RIMPAC (Rim of the Pacific) is the worldʻs largest international maritime exercise, held biannually since the early 1970s.

Canceling the RIMPAC War Games Now & Forever will be a Peace victory for all!
