The "Judgement Day" is here. Affter 116 years the Supreme Court of the United States will make a decision on the Hawaiian Sovereign National Lands of the Hawaiian Kingdom. Thru an "Act of War" United States continues to claim that it has the rightful authority to administrate the National Lands of the Hawaiian Kingdom. I and many Kanaka Maoli Hawaii have never and will never relinquished our claims of Inherent Sovereignty to the national lands of our nation, the Hawaiian Kingdom. Long Live The Hawaiian Kindom
