May 24, 2024, Hilo Peace Vigil leaflet on MIlitary Madness!
Stop US Military Madness!
“The military in Hawaii is out of control and having a deadly impact on the life of our lands like they did on Kaho’olawe.” Walter Ritte, Hawaiian activist 4/29/24
Up to 7 Air Force military space telescopes are planned for Haleakala on Maui (photo below). Sentinel Landscape military buffer zones around military bases are planned on Oahu, Kauai, and Hawaii Island. Military covert Special Operations (Assassination training) are taking place OUTSIDE military bases on all islands, using tourists and local people unknowingly as props. US military Assassin Reaper Drones are also now training in Hawaii.
Air Force Site on Haleakala, Maui for up to 7 telescopes
Hawaii is already one of the most militarized (and military-poisoned) places on the planet. There are more than 100 active US military installations in Hawaii. On Hawaii Island alone, there are at least 57 present and former US military sites on land totaling more than 250,000 acres in need of military cleanup – everything from unexploded ordnance to military chemical and biological weapons, Depleted Uranium (DU) radiation, etc. After more than $400 million was spent to clean up Kaho’olawe, the island is still littered with unexploded ordnance on land and in nearshore waters. Pearl Harbor, once Hawaii’s fish breeding center, is now a military-polluted Superfund site. Nuclear waste has been discharged into Pearl Harbor and more than 2000 fifty-five-gallon drums of military nuclear waste have been dumped off Oahu’s southern shores. Military jet fuel has leaked from massive underground fuel tanks at Red Hill on Oahu, contaminating the groundwater supply of more than 100,000 people, including military families. The full extent of military groundwater contamination is still unknown.
Sentinel Landscape is the creation of modern-day buffer-zone “land moats” around the castles of US militarism. Those who got to lease the castle “land moats” on Oahu and Kauai have been mainly chemical GMO biotech Fortune 500 seed corporations. Whatever farm crops and animals raised near a toxic stew base like Pohakuloa, will likely carry the toxins of the base. A 10-mile radius “Sentinel Landscape” buffer zone is being proposed for Pohakuloa. It is said that most or all of Oahu, Kauai, and the Big Island could be designated as a Sentinel Landscape in service of US militarism.
