Food NOT Bombs!

On Hawaii Island, 40% of households (33% statewide) are food insecure. At the same time, millions of live military rounds are fired annually at the 133,000-acre Pohakuloa TOXIC Area in the center of our island, including the $250,000 Javelin anti-tank missile pictured below.

     Besides food insecurity, everyone can see increasing numbers of homeless people on our streets, and more and more people born and raised here are now being forced to move out of Hawaii while the rich move in. Big Five Sugar barons have been replaced by High Tech Billionaire barons: Larry Ellison of Oracle now owns more than 95% of Lanai, Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook owns a palatial vacation estate on Kauai complete with a 5000 square foot underground bunker, Jeff Bezos of Amazon is on Maui, Mark Benioff of Sales Force on Hawaii Island, etc. etc. etc.

      Hawaii, the most isolated land mass in the world, now imports 95% of the food it consumes.  When Hawaii was an independent nation, before the illegal US overthrow and ongoing illegal Occupation, Hawaii produced 100% of the food it consumed.  Our work is clear:

 End War!  End US Occupation of Hawaii!  
Restore Aloha ‘Aina!  Kapu Aloha — Nonviolence Always!

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.
