Animosity(ies), Jealousy, Pearl Harbor Evidence, Crimes, Genocide Against Our Alii Families/Kanaka Maoli In the Hawaiian Islands Affecting the World Today
Compiled by Amelia Gora (2012)
The Truth Found Through Research About our Hawaiian Kingdom/Ko Hawaii Pae Aina follows:
1810 - Kamehameha was recognized as a King in a Monarchy government.
1815 - Kamehameha with Aetearoa and the Samoan Islands formed the Pacific Empire, a democratic group of recognized nations.
This is the true Kamehameha flag, the Hawaiian flag, Ko Hawaii Pae Aina flag/Hawaiian Kingdom/ Kingdom of Hawaii/Hawaiian Islands/Hawaiian archipelago flag:
Note: Notice that the stripes are red, blue, white, red blue, white, red......and NOT the colors utilized by the occupiers.
Ref: Researchers, including David Wynn Miller who found the true flag at the Archives, Honolulu, Oahu, few years ago.
1822 - Secret Treaty of Verona, a treaty/pact made by Austria, France, Prussia, Russia, with England, U.S. and the Vatican to break down Monarchy governments worldwide and to start a New World Order/ One World Order was made.

1867 -Some of the Alii genealogies were documented. Kamehameha's descendants existed during this period and families claims surfaced in First Circuit Court Probates in the 1870's, etc.:

1875 -A Fraud Deed was claimed to Pearl Harbor and signed by King David Kalakaua in 1875. The problematic issue being that the true deed was made prior to the Mahele of 1848, due to the Halawa lands - including Pearl Harbor belonged to John Young/Olohana, the father of Grace Kamaikui who was awarded John Young's ahupuaa/Halawa lands - including Pearl Harbor in 1848. Grace Kamaikui has descendants: Hueu, Kale, and Peke Davis, and whose descendants existed then and exists today.
( you can locate the Fraud Deeds by going to the First Circuit Court and reviewing the Condemnation cases by the U.S. Government/ entity State of Hawaii vs. Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estates aka's Trustees).
The FRAUD Deed to Pearl Harbor documented in the Condemnation Case. King David Kalakaua deeded lands of Halawa to Grace Kamaikui and Mataio Kekuanaoa. The problems that surfaced in the court case include the facts that Grace Kamaikui died in 1866, and Mataio Kekuanaoa died in 1868.
1875 - a Fraud Deed was made affecting Pearl Harbor and used in the Treaty of Reciprocity signed by King David Kalakaua who had no interest in the lands of Halawa which was conveyed to John Young's and Isaac Davis wife Grace Kamaikui.
King Kalakaua deeded already deeded lands of Halawa which included Pearl Harbor to deceased ancestors Grace Kamaikui and Mataio Kekuanaoa.
1878 - Fear of the Japanese by the U.S. was documented. The Pacific Cable Company was formed by Charles Reed Bishop and Friends.

Many problems existed over the Pearl Harbor Reciprocity Treaty and criminally pursued by the U.S. representatives interested in taking over a neutral, non-violent, friendly nation.

Note: This basically means that the U.S. claims to Pearl Harbor is a Fraud, a lie documented.

Corner note: We are glad to hear evidences that the monumental fraud called the Kingdom of the Sandwich Islands, which has been maintained for the past twelve years at the expense of the people of the U.S., is ready fall to pieces. We presume that England will then step in and assume a protectorate.

1892 - Treasonous persons in a concerted effort moved to dethrone Queen Liliuokalani - ranging from Senator Daniel Akaka's ancestor Thomas Akaka; U.S. President Obama's ancestors the Joseph Booth's; Lorrin Thurston making plans in Makua with American government Representative in Makua Valley, the same valley where the U.S. military blows up depleted uranium as if to rid the evidence of their crimes, etc.
Masons/Freemasons arrived by the hundreds to help the plans along.
Travel for five (5) was approved by Queen Liliuokalani. The Mission was for the Hawaiian Government but used by the usurpers/conspirators:
Reference: Liliuokalani/Queen Liliuokalani's files, Archives, Honolulu, Oahu And what's so special about this document you ask?
Chronologically speaking: 1892 - Legislative Session approves the $5,000 travel expenses for five (5) men to visit Washington D.C. for Hawaiian Kingdom Commerce issues.
1892 - Masons/Freemasons unite from various nations in Honolulu, Parade, and Commemorate a building, calling Honolulu their "home city".
1893 - January 5. Funds provided for the Travel.
1893 - January 8. Congress and the U.S. President gives a standing order to assume Pearl Harbor, etc. 1893 - January 9. NEW YORK TIMES prints the article PEARL HARBOR COALING STATION - Imperative Necessity that the United States Takes Possession http://query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F00617FD345B1A738DDD... or http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=F00617FD345B1A738...
1893 - January 15. The Military Troops poured off the United States Warship BOSTON
1893 - January 17. American businessmen, treasonous persons, conspirators supported by the U.S., England, and the Morgan bankers (includes the international bankers) moved to dethrone Queen Liliuokalani.
1893 - February 3. The five (5) Commissioners were:
1) Lorrin Thurston - missionary descendant. He was born in the islands.
2) William C. Wilder - steamship company which does business in the islands.
3) William Castle - owner of the Railway Company which runs thru Pearl River Harbor. "He is a native."
4) Joseph Marsden - sugar planter.
5) Charles L. Carter - lawyer.
Princess Kaiulani's father - Archibald Cleghorn 'got lost somewhere between Chicago and Washington'. From Salt Lake City and former resident from Hawaii, William A. Kinney, lawyer met them as an advisor.
Dr. Smith/Dr. Mott Smith, a representative from the Hawaiian Islands in Washington, D. C. met the five (5) from Hawaii.
Dr. Smith/Dr. Mott Smith's assistant was Thomas Akaka, ancestor of current day Daniel Akaka who moves with the Akaka Bill, with purposes of defrauding all Hawaiian aboriginals/kanaka maoli, etc.
Now, to get back to the above posted document, $5,000 was made available for five (5) members to travel to Washington D.C. Appears Cleghorn did not want to be directly associated with the treasonous group and happend to have gotten "lost". Cleghorn was the brother-in-law of Queen Liliuokalani due to his marriage to Princess Miriam Likelike and the parents of Princess Kaiulani. Pushing aside the reason for travel at the Hawaiian Kingdom expense for economic plans with the U.S., the travel monies granted in the Legislative Session of 1892, and approved for use on January 5, 1893, was used instead for treasonous activities involved plans to "secure annexation with the United States". The language added "We citizens and representatives of the Hawaiian Islands, organizing and acting for the public safety and the common good, hereby proclaim that a Provisional government for the control and management of public affairs and the protection of the public peace is hereby established. to exist under terms of union with the United States of America have been negotiated and agreed upon." "The terms upon which the annexation shall be made.......................we shall remain here until our object is accomplished or our application is rejected."
See: NEW YORK TIMES article "TO PLEAD HAWAII'S CAUSE - The Commissioners Have Arrived in Washington", dated February 4, 1893 at http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=F00617FD345B1A738...
Note: Wicked lot...........The pirates used the Hawaiian Kingdom monies to fund their travel expenses for their own purposes......................this is yet more evidence showing the concerted efforts made, the planning, the documented premeditation of treasonous persons, conspirators, PIRATES OF THE PACIFIC: Charles Reed Bishop and Friends, and the support of the United States, England, the Morgan bankers (and International bankers) who had their eyes on Hawaii since their mercenaries/missionaries set their foot down in the 1820.
The Premeditation to assume Pearl Harbor, take over Pearl Harbor which has owners was made by a standing order of U.S. Congress and documented in the NEW YORK TIMES on January 9, 1893 or 6-7 days before Queen Liliuokalani of the Hawaiian Kingdom/ Ko Hawaii Pae Aina, a neutral non-violent nation was criminally assumed by Pirates, through acts of Piracy(ies) on the high seas.

Note: Daniel Akaka's ancestor Thomas Akaka worked with Dr. Mott-Smith, Lorrin Thurston, Sanford B. Dole et. als. and helped to plan the dethronement of Queen Liliuokalani in 1892 at Washington, D.C. It is documented in Dr. Mott-Smith's book.
Thomas and Daniel Akaka were both up to no good in Washington, D.C., and now those who support their criminal activities pursue it as well.
9) The BOSTON Warship's Military men came off the ship with gatling guns, etc. two (2) days before dethroning Queen Liliuokalani.

1901 - December 6. The Oahu Railway and Land Company deeded Halawa lands "for the purpose of condemning for naval purposes a certain tract of land situated in the District of Ewa, Island of Oahu, Territory of Hawaii.....Registered map #1739....635 acres, more or less." All of this "in pursuant of said agreement and in consideration of Ten Dollars ($10) in lawful money of the United States of America...." "Oahu Railway & Land Co. By S.C. Allen, President; by M.P. Robinson, Treasurer" signed.
Note: This is the first deed recorded to the U.S. while the true land owners existed, while Queen Liliuokalani was still alive. This shows in part the criminal transactions of criminal deviants transferring lands that did not belong to them, and making it appear that it was a legal transaction.
1901 - December 6. The Oahu Sugar Company Limited also a Corporation deeded to the United States of America "the sum of Ten (10) Dollars in lawful money of the United States of America............portion of that certain Island shown upon that certain Chart numbered 1800 published by the Hydrographic Office of the United States Navy Department, said Island being known and designated Mokuumeume or Ford Island and said portions ..........containing and including 23 acres, more or less.....". "Oahu Sugar Co. Limited by its 2nd Vice President M.P. Robinson, by its Treasurer H.A. Isenberg" signed the deed.
Note: This is the second deed recorded to the U.S. while the true land owners existed, while Queen Liliuokalani was still alive. This shows in part the criminal transactions of criminal deviants transferring lands that did not belong to them, and making it appear that it was a legal transaction.
1901 - U.S. - G. White, Civil Engineer, U.S. mapped Halawa lands , Mokuumeume (Ford Island) showing "Portion of H.O. Chart #1800 Showing Parcwels of Land to be required by the U.S. Government through the Secretary of the Navy by Condemnation Proceedings for Naval Purposes at Pearl Harbor Hawaii Territory Naval Appropriation Act March 3, 1901. Tracing by Ld. E. Newton."
20) 1902 - Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates Trustees deeded lands of Halawa to the U.S.! The transaction amount was for $52,737.50 dollars "in lawful money of the United States of America" - the transaction was made "between Estate of Bernice Pauahi Bishop deceased and Joseph O. Carter, William F. Allen, William O. Smith, Samuel M. Damon, and Alfred W. Carter Trustees under the Will of Bernice Pauahi Bishop deceased and of the Estate of said Bernice Pauahi Bishop, parties of the first part and The United States of America, party of the second part".
Attached to the deed:
The map - The date on the map in entry 17) shows at the bottom "Recorded and Compared this 16th day of July A.D. 1902 at 3:40 o'clock P. 71_ " signed/stamped Thos. G. Thrum, Registrar of Conveyances.
Note: The Territory of Hawaii entity made a condemnation case. The U.S. assumed lands of the Royal families, Grace Kamaikui's ahupuaa. The Trustees of the Estate of Bernice Pauahi Bishop were treasonous persons who did not have the rights to convey lands of the Royal families, etc. The claim that they appeared to be moving with was the King David Kalakaua deed which conveyed the Halawa Ahupuaa to Grace Kamaikui and Mataio Kekuanaoa. Grace Kamaikui was the owner of the Halawa Ahupuaa which was already conveyed to her by Kamehameha III - Kauikeouli in 1848. The Ahupuaa belonged to John Young, who left it to his heirs/descendants. John Young was a British counselor of Kamehameha.
In other words, the claims by the Treasonous Trustees are without right, they had no claims to the Halawa Ahupuaa because John Young's, Grace Kamaikui's descendants existed then, and their descendants exist today (including myself, Amelia Gora). These illegal transactions made by treasonous persons are null and void, the U.S. supported their conspiracy activities, treasonous activities...............see the Premeditation article showing that the U.S. President, and the U.S. Congress did make a standing order to assume the Hawaiian Islands, Pearl Harbor, which is part of the Halawa Ahupuaa, and dethroning Queen Liliuokalani from a neutral, friendly, non violent nation.
The Roads to WAR with the criminal claims to Pearl Harbor, Halawa lands, Mokuumeume Island (Ford Island) is based on fraud, criminal deviance, piracy(ies), etc. Research incomplete.
1917 - Queen Liliuokalani died. She denied signing a Trust Deed with Samuel Damon, William Smith, and Curtis Iaukea.
Colburn, an administrator, was left to make corrections but instead made an agreement with Prince Kuhio.
1918 - Prince Kuhio made an out-of-court settlement to the claims of Queen Liliuokalani's denial that she signed a Trust Deed. He received Queen Liliuokalani's beach front home in Waikiki as a settlement.
Meanwhile, the true trustees descendants existed then, and exist now.
The Trustees of all of the Alii Trusts were treasonous persons, and the trustees assigned continue to perpetuate the crimes of the past. Meanwhile, the true heirs existed then, and exist today.
1920 -
Prince Kuhio Kalanianaole Treasonous Person introduced Statehood in 1920 https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B6Gs4av5Se1wMzY0NzE3ZDUtZGE5Mi00Zj...
https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B6Gs4av5Se1wMzY0NzE3ZDUtZGE5Mi00Zj...
Kuhio was not allowed to vote, he was allowed only to speak in Congress.1959 - Hawaii became a fake state.
Opposition to Statehood was made by Harold Cathcart, one of Kamehameha's descendants, first cousin of my great grandmother.
1992 - A Condemnation Case in the First Circuit Court - Case o. 92-2435-07 was made. The claims on the case was based on the Fraud Deed of King David Kalakaua to two (2) deceased ancestors.
The Trustees of the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estates maintained they were part of the owners of the Halawa Ahupuaa. The Trustees are not part of our families, and maintain a Pirate existence in the Hawaiian Islands with support of the U.S. who did premeditate the wrongful dethronement of our Queen in 1893.
I pointed out the Fraud Deed. The attorney for the Trustees stated that I was a good researcher. The Trustees hired another law firm, the condemnation case was pursued and the Judge of the Court was gifted with a Federal Judge position in the Federal Courts.
2012 - The Trustees of the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estates have perpetuated Frauds, Deceit, Lies over time and do not have titles to ANY of the Alii lands.
Kamehameha's descendants, Kalola's descendants - Bernice Pauahi's next of kin listed on her probate, et. als. exists.
The permanent treaties with the U.S., and other nations continue.

SUMMARY
The conspiracies by the U.S. government in claiming Pearl Harbor, the Hawaiian archipelago, a neutral, friendly, non-violent nation is shown in the articles posted above.
Oppositions to the U.S. has been made by more than 20,000 subjects of the Hawaiian Kingdom, along with Queen Liliuokalani; many subjects/kanaka maoli over time against Statehood, etc.
A current Judge did say that "because opposition was documented, Sovereignty shall be...."
The claims to the Hawaiian Islands by the U.S. Presidents and Congress, with England, and the Morgan bankers is one BIG LIE, documented Fraud, deceit, criminal support, premeditation, conspiracy(ies), piracy(ies) against a neutral, friendly, non-violent nation by bankrupt persons from bankrupt nations.
PIRATES OF THE PACIFIC: Charles Reed Bishop and Friends did premeditate the criminal assumption, pirating, identity theft of the Hawaiian Kingdom since their arrival because he did work for the U.S. Consulate, and all consulates have spies employed with their units.
Charles Reed Bishop and William Lee were both employed by the U.S. Consulate.
Charles Reed Bishop and Friends did form the Pacific Cable Company in 1878 to warn the U.S. that the Japanese were passing the Hawaiian Islands. The U.S., and England were bankrupt due to their debt from the American Civil War and they assumed the Hawaiian Kingdom assets through their banking partnerships, investors the Morgan and International banks including the Bank of England who funded both sides of Wars.
Queen Liliuokalani documented that the U.S. breached the Law of Nations.
Charles Reed Bishop had borrowed $2,000,000 - $4,000,000 from the Hawaiian Kingdom and the PIRATE, Racketeering entity calling themselves the Provisional government forgave him his loans.
Oppositions to the claims of Pearl Harbor has been documented and put out to the public.
The claims to Pearl Harbor by the criminal, treasonous Trustees of the Bernice Pauahi Trust pirated by criminal deviants, racketeers now documented, also had a part in creating WARS against Innocents by conveying lands that they never had title or ownership to and conveyed to a Warring, bankrupt nation who did acts of War against a neutral, non-violent, friendly nation and moved to criminally assume Private properties of our Royal families, etc.
Needless Wars occurred due to greed, criminal activities maintained by the U.S. and their treasonous mercenaries who are documented Pirates and are not the true owners in the Hawaiian Islands. Genocide issues, evidence against a neutral, non-violent nation has and is being documented.
The crimes of the past affecting ALL WARS since 1893 is hereby revealed by one of the researchers, reporters, whistleblowers with documented evidence that has been posted all over the internet for the world to see. I, Amelia Gora, stand with the many other researchers, reporters, whistleblowers who convey the Truth to everyone.....and I again state that the U.S. does NOT own or have any interest in Pearl Harbor, in the Halawa Ahupuaa or any part of the Hawaiian Islands and Hawaiian archipelago due to their operations supporting documented criminal deviants who supported their cause in assuming the lands, resources, monies, gold bullions, gold coins, buildings, our Queen Liliuokalani's government are are documented Pirates on the High Seas moving to Plunder Upon All Nations for their assets, resources, monies, lands, including human bondage/slaves, etc.
The U.S., England, and the bankers formed the CFR/Council on Foreign Relations which departed from the Law of Nations and set up the United Nations with the One World Order/ New World Order goals which continues together, neglecting the Constitution, a democratic society with goals towards communism, the decimation of "needless" and "useless eaters", favoring only whites, and moving with animosities towards all people of color.Obama is no exception as can be seen in his recent you tube video - he is but a puppet to a documented criminal, greedy psychopaths who enjoy killing by creating WARS /Plundering Upon Innocents, creating toxins, contaminants, weapons that kill, etc.

Let everyone know the Truth. The Hawaiian Kingdom/Ko Hawaii Pae Aina whose Royal families existed then and exists now are the True Land owners, descendants/heirs of Kamehameha, King Kalakaua, Queen Liliuokalani, et. als.
The claims to Pearl Harbor is based on lies, conspiracy(ies) documented, Fraud, criminal claims, illegal, and one of Piracy(ies), racketeering, and the Wars created are based on deceit, greed, LIES.........LIES........LIES...........and countless souls died needlessly..........and everyone in the World should know this, including the whistleblowers, the reporters, the writers, and all who believe that the "truth shall set you free".
Wake Up Hawaii! Wake Up America! Wake Up World!
The permanent treaties with the U.S., and other nations continue.
Rents, Leases for Crown Lands, Government lands in the amount of $500 Trillion dollars in gold coins, gold bullions due.
Rents, Leases for our Royal Families Private Properties, resources, water, etc. are also due.

SPECIAL REPORT
The Case Against Howard Zinn
By ROBERT STACY MCCAIN on 8.2.10 @ 6:08AM
FBI files show Stalinist past of the "people's history" author.
Howard Zinn was teaching a class, but he wasn't yet a professor and his classroom wasn't at a university. It was late 1951, and the students who gathered for Zinn's lessons in Brooklyn were his fellow members of the Communist Party USA.
One of Zinn's comrades described him as "a person with some authority" within the local CPUSA section and said that Zinn's class was on "basic Marxism," the theme being "that the basic teachings of Marx and Lenin were sound and should be adhered to by those present."
That description, furnished to the Federal Bureau of Investigation by a former Communist in 1957, is included in more than 400 pages of Zinn's FBI file made public last week .
The FBI files demonstrate beyond reasonable doubt that Zinn -- author of A People's History of the United States, widely used as a textbook or supplement in many of our nation's high schools and universities -- was a card-carrying Communist at a time when the Soviet Union was America's most dreaded enemy.
File No. 100-360217 was begun in March 1949 in response to an order from FBI director J. Edgar Hoover to Edward Scheidt, special agent in charge of the Bureau's New York office. Zinn's name had previously surfaced in connection with other FBI investigations of Communist Party activities, but a new report from an unnamed agent marked Zinn as a subject of special interest.
In 1948, an FBI confidential informant had spoken to Zinn at a protest in front of the White House and reported that, during the course of their conversation, "Zinn indicated that he is a member of the Communist Party and that he attends Party meetings five nights a week in Brooklyn." Zinn, who was then a 26-year-old Army Air Force veteran attending New York University, expressed to the informant his support for Henry Wallace's third-party "Progressive" presidential campaign, "indicating that the Communist Party was 100% behind this Movement," according to the FBI file.
Additional investigation showed that Zinn was active in several Communist-dominated "front groups," and that in 1947 Zinn was a delegate to a conference of the Joint Anti-Fascist Refugee Committee, which had been designated a subversive organization by the Attorney General pursuant to a 1947 executive order of President Truman. Furthermore, according to another informant, Zinn's Brooklyn address "appeared on a list of addressograph stencils at Communist Party Headquarters" in New York.
In response to this report, Hoover directed the New York office to develop a "Security Index" file on Zinn. Scheidt was "requested to conduct further investigation in an effort to obtain additional information concerning this subject's membership in the Communist Party or concerning his activities in behalf of the party," Hoover wrote on March 30, 1949. "Particular emphasis should be placed on obtaining admissible evidence."
Continuing investigation determined that in 1946, Zinn's wife had solicited petition signatures for the New York Communist Party, and that Zinn and his wife had both joined the International Workers Order, another designated subversive group. An FBI informant had reported in 1948 that "Howie Zinn was believed to be one of a group of individuals selected from the 6th [Assembly District], Kings County Communist Party as a fraternal delegate to the New York State Convention of the Communist Party."
No further agency action followed until November 1953, when two agents from the New York FBI office interviewed Zinn as part of the bureau's Security Informant Program and filed a detailed report: "Zinn stated that he was not now or was he ever a member of the [Communist Party]. He acknowledged that perhaps his activities in the past had opened him to charges that he was associated with the CP as a member; however, he was not…. He stated that he was a liberal and perhaps some people would consider him to be a 'leftist.'… According to Zinn, he was not ashamed of his past activities and did not believe that he or his activities constituted a threat to the security of this country or our government."
Zinn's denial of Communist Party membership during this interview (which the agents duly reported as having been conducted "between Fifth and Sixth Streets and Avenue D" in Manhattan) is problematic. Multiple informants had already identified Zinn as a CPUSA member, and he was involved in several different Communist front groups, as well as Communist-infiltrated groups such as the American Veterans Committee and the American Peace Mobilization. His address was reportedly on the mailing list at the party's headquarters, and he had helped lead a 1948 protest against the so-called Nixon-Mundt Bill which, eventually incorporated into the McCarran Act, required members of the Communist Party to register with the attorney general.
A few weeks later, in February 1954, FBI agents again interviewed Zinn, informing him that they "were giving him an opportunity to further discuss his former activity with certain subversive organizations." Whereas previously Zinn had flatly denied attending the New York Communist Party convention, in the second interview "he could not recall" attending, nor could he recall attending the 1947 Joint Anti-Fascist Refugee Committee conference. More to the point, Zinn "stated that under no circumstances would he testify or furnish information concerning the political opinions of others."
Zinn's non-cooperation duly noted, his FBI file remained fairly dormant for three years, as he completed his Ph.D. at Columbia University. But a report from the New York office in June 1957, in response to an inquiry from the bureau's Atlanta office (Zinn was then teaching at Atlanta's Spelman College), contained details indicating that Zinn's earlier denials were false.
The FBI's unnamed informant had joined the CPUSA in 1948 and remained a member for five years. The party was divided into "sections" and "branches" and the informant told the FBI that he had been transferred to the party's section in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn in 1949.
"At that time, Howard Zinn was already a member of that section," the informant said in 1957, according to the report by FBI Special Agent Edward P. Grigalus. "Informant stated it was his impression that Zinn was not a new member, but had been in the CP for some time.… Informant stated he attended numerous section meetings with the subject between about 1949 and about the summer of 1953.… The meetings were held either at the section headquarters or at the home of one of the members. Informant recalled that some meetings were held at [Zinn's] home or at the home of one George Kirshner on Lafayette Street in Brooklyn."

Pearl Harbor
The United States first gained rights there in 1887, when theHawaiian monarchy permitted a coaling and repair station. Afterthe United States annexed Hawaii in 1900, Pearl Harbor was madea naval base. Harbor improvements and fortifications were lateradded, especially after the signing of the Berlin Pact in 1940 bythe Axis nations.
On Dec. 7, 1941, while negotiations were going on with Japaneserepresentatives in Washington, Japanese carrier-based planesswept in without warning over Oahu and attacked (7:55 A.M. local time) the bulk of the U.S. Pacific fleet, moored in PearlHarbor. Nineteen naval vessels, including eight battleships, weresunk or severely damaged; 188 U.S. aircraft were destroyed.Military casualties were 2,280 killed and 1,109 wounded; 68civilians also died. On Dec. 8, the United States declared war onJapan.
There were many charges of negligence against those responsiblefor Pearl Harbor's defense. A special commission appointed byPresident Franklin D. Roosevelt accused the army and navycommanders at Hawaii of dereliction of duty in a report on Jan. 24,1942. Later army and navy investigations concluded that no validgrounds existed for court-martial. A congressional committee,formed in Sept., 1945, absolved the army and navy commanders ina formal report on July 16, 1946, but censured the War Dept. andthe Dept. of the Navy.
Pearl Harbor is now a national historic landmark; a memorial hasbeen built over the sunken hulk of the USS Arizona. Thebattleship Missouri, site of Japan's surrender, is also preservedthere as a memorial.

Inlet, southern coast of Oahu island, Hawaii, U.S. It lies 6 mi (10km) west of Honolulu, forming a landlocked harbour connectedwith the Pacific Ocean. In 1887 Hawaii granted the U.S. theexclusive use of the harbour as a coaling and repair station, and in1908 a naval station was established. In 1941 the harbour wasattacked without warning by the Japanese air force, causing greatloss of life and precipitating U.S. entry into World War II. It is nowthe headquarters of the U.S. Pacific Fleet.

Pearl Harbor is a harbor on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, west ofHonolulu. Much of the harbor and surrounding lands is a United States Navy deep-water naval base. It is also the headquarters ofthe U.S. Pacific Fleet. The attack on Pearl Harbor by the Empire of Japan on December 7, 1941 brought the United States into World War II.
History
Pearl Harbor was originally an extensive, shallow embayment calledWai Momi (meaning "harbor of pearl") or Pu'uloa by theHawaiians. Pu'uloa was regarded as the home of the sharkgoddess Ka'ahupahau and her brother (or son) Kahi'uka. InHawaiian legends, Keaunui, the head of the powerful andcelebrated Ewa chiefs, is attributed the honour of having cut anavigable channel near the present Puuloa saltworks, by which thegreat estuary, now known as "Pearl River," was in all subsequentages rendered accessible to navigation. Making due allowance forlegendary amplification of a known fact, the estuary doubtless hadan outlet for its waters where the present gap is; but the legendis probably correct in giving Keaunui the credit of having widenedit and deepened it, so as to admit the passage of canoes, andeven larger vessels, in and out of the Pearl River estuary. Theharbor was teeming with pearl-producing oysters until the late1800s.Nineteenth Century
During the years following the arrival of Captain James Cook, PearlHarbor was not considered a suitable harbor due to its shallowwater. The interest of the United States Government in theSandwich Islands followed the adventurous voyages of its whalingand trading ships in the Pacific. As early as 1820, an "Agent of theUnited States for Commerce and Seamen" was appointed to lookafter American business in the Port of Honolulu. With thecementing of commercial ties with the American continent,another factor to be considered was the endeavors of theAmerican Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. This wasparticularly true when the American missionaries and their familiesbecame an integral part of the Hawaiian body politic. The affair ofLieutenant John Percival in 1826 illustrates some of the high-handed tactics of employed by colonizers of the islands at thistime. When Percival's ship, , arrived in Honolulu, an ordinance hadjust been passed, inspired by the missionaries, placing restrictionson the sale of alcoholic liquors and the taking of women aboardvessels in the Honolulu Harbor. Lieutenant Percival and members ofhis crew felt that the new vice laws were unfair and, with morethan a mere threat of force, had them rescinded. This act waslater renounced by the United States and resulted in the sendingof an envoy to King Kauikeaouli. When Captain Thomas ap Catesby Jones arrived, in command of the , he was the first naval officerto visit Hawaii armed with instructions to discuss internationalaffairs with the Hawaii King and Chiefs, and to conclude a tradetreaty. Throughout the 1820s and 1830's, many Americanwarships visited Honolulu. In most cases the commanding officerscarried letters with them from the U.S. Government; as a rule,giving advice concerning the conduct of governmental affairs andof the relations of the island nation with foreign powers. In 1841,the weekly periodical, Polynesian , printed in Honolulu, advocatededitorially that the U.S. establish a naval base in Hawaii. Itspretext was the protection of the interest of American citizensengaged in the whaling industry. The pro-British Hawaiian minister,R.C. Wyllie, remarked in 1840 that ". . . my opinion is that the tideof events rushes on to annexation to the United States." Thistrend was in no way hampered by the over-anxious endeavors ofthe English and the French governments to gain favorable tradeconcessions in the islands. On 13 February 1843, Lord George Paulet, of , attempted to annex the islands for alleged insults andmalpractices against British subjects. Although an Americanwarship, , was in the harbor at the time, its commanding officerdid not protest this threatened use of violence. Official protestwas made a few days later, however, by Commodore Kearney of .Fortunately, before the matter became an international incident,the actions of Lord Paulet were disavowed by Lord Aberdeen inLondon. This incident led to the formulation of a declaration byFrance and Britain disavowing any act interfering with theSandwich Islands as an independent state. The United States,although invited to become a member of this concert of nations,declined to take part in the convention because the time.
When France began to agitate for special concessions in the1850s, the King, under the influence of his American advisors,drew up a deed of cessation to the United States. Thecommanding officer of had his ship stand by to prevent theintervention of any foreign power during the interim beforeWashington's reply. With the death of the king, the retirement ofthe French forces, and the foreign policy of theFillmore administration, the cessation idea fell into disfavor. TheNavy Department received orders, however, to keep the navalarmament of the U.S. in the Pacific.
With the conclusion of the Civil War, the purchase of Alaska, theincreased importance of the Pacific states, the projected tradewith the Orient and the desire for a duty free market for Hawaiianstaples, the islands were irresistibly drawn into the whirlpool ofexpansion. In 1865 the North Pacific Squadron was formed toembrace the western coast and the Sandwich Islands. in thefollowing year was assigned the task of cruising among theislands, "a locality of great and increasing interest andimportance." This vessel surveyed the islands and reefs,northwest of the Sandwich Islands toward Japan. It was as aresult of these surveys that the United States established itsclaims to Midway Island. The Secretary of the Navy was able towrite in his annual report of 1868, that in November, 1867, forty-two American flags flew over whaleships and merchant vessels inHonolulu to only six foreign flags. This increased activity causedthe permanent assignment of at least one warship to Hawaiianwaters. This same report praised the possibilities of Brooks, orMidway Island, which had been discovered in 1858, as possessinga harbor surpassing that of Honolulu. In the following year,Congress approved an appropriation of $50,000 on 1 March 1869,to deepen the approaches to this harbor.
After 1868, when the Commander of the Pacific Fleet visited theislands to look after "American interests," naval officers played animportant role in internal affairs. They served as arbitrators inbusiness disputes, negotiators of trade agreements and defendersof law and order. Periodic voyages among the islands and to themainland aboard U.S. warships were arranged for members of theHawaiian royal family and important island government officials.When King Lunalilo died in 1873, negotiations were underway forthe cessation of Pearl Harbor as a port for the duty-free export ofsugar to the U.S. With the election of a new king, King Kalakaua inMarch, 1874, anti-American factions helped to precipitate anumber of riots which were regarded as sufficiently disturbing tohave bluejackets landed from USS Tuscorora and the . The Britishwarship, , also landed a token force. It was during the reign ofKing Kalakaua that the United States was granted exclusive rightsto enter Pearl Harbor and to establish "a coaling and repairstation."
While this treaty continued in force until August 1898, noadvantage was taken by the U.S. Government of the opportunityto fortify or use Pearl Harbor as a naval base. The shallowentrance constituted a formidable barrier against the use of thedeep protected waters of the inner harbor much as it had somesixty years previously.
The United States of America and the Hawaiian Kingdom signedthe Reciprocity Treaty of 1875 as supplemented by Convention onDecember 6, 1884 and ratified in 1887. On January 20, 1887, theUnited States Senate allowed the Navy to lease Pearl Harbor as anaval base (the US took possession on November 9 that year).The Spanish-American War of 1898 and the desire for the UnitedStates to have a permanent presence in the Pacific bothcontributed to the decision.
1899–1941
After the annexation, Pearl Harbor was refitted to allow for morenavy ships. In May 1899, Commander F. Merry was made navalrepresentative with authority to transact business for the NavyDepartment and its Bureaus. He immediately assumed control ofthe Coal Depot and its equipment. To supplement his facilities, hewas assigned the Navy tug Iroquois and two coal barges.Inquiries that commenced in June culminated in the establishmentof the "Naval Station, Honolulu" on 17 November 1899. On 2February 1900, this title was changed to "Naval Station, Hawaii."
The creation of the Naval Station afforded the Navy Departmentan opportunity to explore into territorial outposts. In October 1899the USS Nero and the Iroquois made extensive surveys andsounding of the waterways to Midway and Guam. One of thereasons for these explorations was for the selection of a possiblecable route to Luzon.
A coal famine and an outbreak of the bubonic plague were theonly two incidents that hindered the Commandant from fulfilling hisprimary functions. Because of the severe coal shortage inSeptember 1899, the Commandant sold coal to the Oahu Railway and Land Company and the Inter-Island Steam Navigation Company, Ltd. Although this indicated the affinity of economic tieswith the Navy, it was to a certain extent counteracted by thequarantine of the naval establishment from December 1899 toFebruary 1900, because of the bubonic plague. Approximately 61deaths were recorded in Honolulu for this period. Work wasconsequently delayed on nascent Navy projects in HonoluluHarbor.
From 1901 to 1908 the Navy devoted its time to improving thefacilities of the 85 acres that constituted the naval reservation inHonolulu. Under the Appropriation Act of 3 March 1901, this tractof land was improved with the erection of additional sheds andhousing. Improvements included a machine shop, smithery andfoundry, Commandant's house and stables, cottage for thewatchman, fencing, ten-ton wharf crane, and water-pipe system.The harbor was dredged and the channel enlarged toaccommodate larger ships. On 28 May 1903, the first battleship, ,entered the harbor for coal and water. However, when the vesselsof the Asiatic station visited Honolulu in January 1904, RearAdmiral Silas Terry complained that they were inadequatelyaccommodated with dockage and water.
Under the above Appropriation Act, Congress approved theacquisition of lands for the development of a naval station at PearlHarbor and the improvement of the channel to the Lochs. TheCommandant, under the direction of the Bureau of Equipment,attempted to obtain options on lands surrounding Pearl Harborthat were recommended for naval use. This endeavor wasunsuccessful when the owners of the property refused to acceptwhat was deemed to be a fair price. Condemnation proceedings,under the Hawaiian law of eminent domain, were begun on 6 July1901. The land acquired by this suit included the present NavyYard, Kauhua Island, and a strip on the southeast coast of Ford Island. The work of dredging the coral reef that blocked PearlHarbor progressed rapidly enough to allow the gunboat to proceedto the upper part of Main Loch in January 1905.
One of the early concerns of the growing station was that theArmy would make claims on its property. Because of their facilities,as wharves, cranes, artesian wells, and coal supplies, manyrequests were made by the Army for their use. By February 1901,the Army had made application for the privilege of establishing onNavy docks movable cranes for handling coal and other stores, asaluting battery and a flag staff on the naval reservation, and anartesian well of its own. All these requests were rejected by theBureau of Equipment on the theory that, once granted, they "willpractically constitute a permanent foothold on the property, andend in dividing it between the two Departments, or in the entireexclusion of the Navy Department on the ground of militaryexpediency as established by frequency of use." However, theArmy Depot Quartermaster at Honolulu contracted for the sinkingof an artesian well on the Naval Station with the Commandant'sapproval, who, in turn, acted on a recommendation of the Bureau of Yards and Docks. The flow of water obtained amounted to overa million and a half gallons per day, sufficient for all purposes ofthe Army and navy. The Bureau of Equipment felt that its word ofcaution was justified when the Depot Quartermaster in 1902 let itbe known that any water used by the Navy from the artesian wellwas "only given by courtesy of the Army."
Despite the warnings of the Bureau of Equipment, the War Department, the Department of Labor and Commerce, and theDepartment of Agriculture had secured permission to settle on thenaval reservation. By 1906, the Commandant believed that it wasnecessary for the Bureau of Yards and Docks to develop a policyon the future of the station. The docks were being used to agreater extent by the Army transports, than by Navy ships, andthe Army was actually attempting to get possession of QuarantineWharf (which was built by the Territorial Government on the NavalReservation, with the understanding that it could be taken over atany time by the Navy Department upon the payment of itsappraised value.) In 1903, the Department of Labor and Commercereceived about seven acres for an Immigration Station. TheDepartment of Agriculture had, in the meanwhile, secured part ofthe site intended for a hospital as an experimental station. TheCommandant felt that, if the station was going to develop beyonda mere coaling depot, these territorial encroachments on the partof other departments should be stopped, particularly when theywere enjoying the benefits of naval appropriations. "On the otherhand," he wrote, "if it is the intention to improve Pearl Harbor andeventually abandon this station every effort should be made tobegin work there as soon as possible. . . . I am informed thatimportant commercial interests will make a strong effort next yearto have Pearl Harbor improved, and I think that will be anopportune time for the Navy Department to make efforts in thesame direction."
In 1908 the Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard was established. Theperiod from 1908 to 1919 was one of steady and continuousgrowth of the Naval Station, Pearl Harbor, with the exception ofthe discouraging collapse of the drydock in 1913. Work on thedock started on September 21, 1909 and on February 17, 1913,the entire drydock structure rumbled, rocked, and caved in. It wasceremonially opened to flooding by Mrs. Josephus Daniels, wife ofthe Secretary of the Navy, on 21 August 1919. The Act of 13 May1908 authorized the enlargement and dredging of the Pearl Harborchannel and lochs "to admit the largest ships," the building ofshops and supply houses for the Navy Yard, and the constructionof a drydock. Work progressed satisfactorily on all projects,except the drydock. After much wrangling with Congress to securean appropriation of over three million dollars for its construction, itwas wrecked by "underground pressure. " In 1917, Ford Island inthe middle of Pearl Harbor was purchased for joint Army and Navyuse in the development of military aviation in the Pacific.
