RIMPAC 2022:

JUST STOP IT!

     RIMPAC 2022 destructive war exercises are again happening in Hawaii throughout July. Bombing and shelling are planned for the military Pohakuloa Toxic Area (PTA) and landing craft operations at Kawaihae, among other places in and around Hawaii, on land, sea, and air. RIMPAC 2022, involves 26 countries, 25,000 military personnel, 170 aircraft, and more than 40 ships and submarines.

     We need to call RIMPAC for what it is – dangerous, provocative, and destructive war games that increase the risk of nuclear war and the extermination of life on the planet. RIMPAC 2022 has many NATO countries participating in a clear message to China: the US is THE Global Empire in a Uni-polar (not multi-polar) world, even if it involves WWIII. Everything takes a back seat to US global hegemony – Hawaii’s clean drinking water, contamination of air, land, and sea, the killing of marine life, endangered species, and even global climate catastrophe. The US military mission is to serve corporate interests and increase their profits. That mission trumps all. They don’t call it the Military-Industrial Complex for nothing!

A CANCEL RIMPAC forum is planned for Hawaii Island with a wide range of pro-peace speakers – Thursday, July 14, 2022, from 5:30 – 7:30 PM at the UH Hilo Library Lanai.

Peaceful Protests: Wednesday, July 13th, 3:30-5 PM at the Hilo airport (Corner of Kekuanao’a St. & Kanoelehua Ave.) Saturday, July 23rd 10:30-12 noon Bayfront (near King Kamehameha Statue

An important Peace organizing meeting is scheduled for Monday, July 11th from 6-8PM at the Kea’au Community Center to plan RIMPAC protests at Pohakuloa and other sites. Please join and pass the word to ohana and friends. Help Cancel RIMPAC and restore the Pacific as an Ocean of Peace. Peace is a victory for all. We must support one another for justice, peace, and the earth.

Stay Tuned. Mahalo!
