Protest of Stryker and other live-fire training at Pohakuloa Training Area (PTA)
Saturday, Oct. l0, 2009 Mauna Kea State Park
There will be a peaceful protest l0AM Saturday Oct. l0th at Mauna Kea State park --l mile east of the Pohakuloa main gate on Saddle Road. (Car pools will leave 9AM from the Hilo Bayfront parking lot at Pauahi and Kamehameha Ave.) The protest will begin at the park and then move to PTA's main gate. The protest is over Stryker tank and other ongoing live-fire training at the base known to be contaminated with Depleted Uranium (DU) radiation from past weapons training. Live-fire and other activities that create dust, risk spreading the radiation off base into civilian areas. The Hawaii County Council passed a resolution 8-l in July 2008 calling for a halt to all live-fire at PTA until there is a complete assessment of the radiation contamination and clean up of the DU present. The military continues to ignore the Council's call to action.
Reports are that l00 Stryker l9 ton eight-wheeled tanks (perhaps more) are currently doing training at PTA. These tanks have recently returned from Iraq where their l05 mm canons and 50 cal machine guns have fired DU munitions.
The protest is sponsored by Malu 'Aina Center for Non-violent Education & Action.
Jim Albertini of Malu 'Aina said: It's time to Stop Strykers! Stop all live-fire on Pohakuloa, and live-fire in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan. The military needs to clean up its mess and end its occupations, not make more of a mess."

STRYKER PROTEST
Stop Live-fire on Pohakuloa,
Iraq, Afghanistan, & Pakistan, etc.
Time: l0AM
Date: Saturday, Oct. l0th
Meeting place: Mauna Kea State Park
One mile east of the new main gate of the Pohakuloa Training Area on Saddle Rd. in the center of the island. Car pools will leave 9AM from the Hilo Bayfront parking lot at Pauahi and Kamehameha Ave.
A Stryker is an eight-wheeled, l9-ton modern tank (urban assault vehicle). It's not a defensive weapon. It is a killing machine. A full Stryker Brigade is based on Oahu at Schofield Barracks. Earlier this year the Brigade, including more than 300 Stryker tanks, returned from Iraq. The Brigade is now training for another deployment to Iraq or possibly Afghanistan, as President Obama escalates the war there.
The Stryker tanks fire depleted uranium (DU) ammunition. They have fired it in Iraq and have contributed to the widespread DU contamination there which is causing widespread health problems, including cancer, birth defects, and deaths. Whether these tanks have brought DU contamination back to Hawaii is unknown. No independent testing has been done.
Reports are that a hundred Strykers (perhaps more) have been brought via Kawaihae Harbor from Ohau and are now doing training at the Pohakuloa Training Area (PTA), including live-fire. While the Army says no DU weapons are presently used in training at PTA, the area is already officially acknowledged to be contaminated with DU from earlier weapons training. Live-fire, and other activities that create dust such as tank maneuver training, risk spreading radiation contamination -- toxic deadly poison, off-base into civilian areas, carried by the strong winds that travel through the Saddle Area toward the Hilo and Kona sides of our Island.
Stand Up and Speak Out!
Let a cry go out by all of us who are charged to be responsible stewards of this 'aina: Stop Strykers! Stop all live-fire on Pohakuloa, and live-fire in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan. But let us do more. Let us work to end the illegal U.S. occupation of Hawai'i as well as illegal occupations of Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. The people and the land are spiritually interconnected as one. So too are the issues of Justice & Peace. Join our non-violent protest, where hearts come together to help remove the obstacles to peace. Mahalo.

Everyone in our Hawaiian archipelago should send Oppositions to john.hayes@nrc.gov ; to governor.lingle@histate.gov etals. Inform them that if the Military EXTERMINATION CAMPAIGN goes on, there would be no reason to pay taxes and plan to CEASE paying taxes....ABSOLUTELY EVERYONE!!!
Additionally, everyone should NOT PAY THEIR MORTGAGES! Their RENTS, their LEASES! for the entity State of Hawaii failing to protect the lives, safety, rights of everyone (men, women, children, the unborn, pets, animals, plants, all living organisms, etc.) in our Hawaiian islands!
The deadline is October 13, 2009, then the military will respond in kind to PROJECT EXTERMINATION!
The entity State of Hawaii FAILS to protect the lives and safety by failure to intervene and ALLOWS the criminal use of contamination in our Hawaiian islands.........legally, Hawaii IS NOT a legal state...........OBAMA is not a legal President........Inouye is a banker looking to assume PRIVATE PROPERTIES OF SOVEREIGNS along with active criminal predators Akaka, and Lingle.
HOLD OFF ON PAYING YOUR MORTGAGES............because the bankers DO NOT HAVE CLEAR TITLES TO ALL LANDS IN OUR HAWAIIAN ARCHIPELAGO!
If you're afraid, then simply hold off on paying for your mortgages until AFTER the October 13, 2009 date and up to the end of the month!
This is serious business because the Military moves under the instructions of your leaders who seek to continue the EXTERMINATION CAMPAIGN UPON INNOCENTS IN HAWAII AND ABROAD!
Project Anti-Extermination in Progress.........Please Send this message to All your loved ones, your families, your friends..... Everyone! and don't forget to send this to others who are enemies or those who seek to destroy you- your health, your safety, your DNA, your food supply, your water supply, etc.
How dare JEWLINGLE etals. think that continued support of the military, Strykers, etc. is OK!
WHAT DID WE EVER DO TO THE U.S.? We Are the EVIDENCE AND THE TRUTH of WHAT THE U.S. and their military is All About!
STAND UP FOR YOUR RIGHTS!..........the decay of the American nation which fails in supporting a humanistic role, fails in supporting their own laws, Constitution, Bill of Rights, International laws, etc. is here to DESTROY all in Hawaii and views us as useless, needless eaters along with other "PEOPLE OF COLOR"!
Care to explore other possibilities.....deoccupation......bringing in other neutral nations.......etc.........Suggestions? Additions?
Aloha.

Greetings Mr. Hayes,
Re: Cease and Desist Order for Military Activity(ies) which includes Firing, Training with Depleted Uranium Use, etc. on Our Private Properties and Attachment - Kingdom of Hawaii Records No. 2009-0316 from Amelia Gora, a Royal person and Acting Liaison of Foreign Affairs
As one of the owners of Pohakuloa, Makua, and Schofield, etc. lands, part of the Crown Lands, and Private properties of our Royal families, one of the representatives of our Royal families, the Acting Liaison of Foreign Affairs, I hereby enter this Cease and Desist Order for Military Activity(ies) which includes Firing, Training with Depleted Uranium Use, etc. on our Private Properties and attachment Letter to President Obama which was delivered to his visiting representatives in Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii:
Greetings,
An invitation to address and respond to:
"a high-ranking Administration officials (who) will hear directly from us on what can be done to protect our oceans and respect our unique way of life." was posted calling for a meeting at the NBC/Neal Blaisdell Center from 1:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. today, Tuesday, September 29, 2009.
My name is Amelia Gora, a Royal person and Acting Liaison of Foreign Affairs - Kingdom of Hawaii/Hawaiian Kingdom/Hawaiian Islands/Hawaiian archipelago/He Mokupuni Pae Aina o Hawaii response follows:
I maintain Oppositions to the U.S. Presidents claims over our Hawaiian archipelago since former President William Clinton, George W. Bush, and to you President Obama.
May I remind you that the President and Congress has no authority outside the contiguous United States 3-12 miles zone as documented by the U.S. Supreme Court Justices.
I am a descendant and heir of Kamehameha, one of the owners of the Crown Lands, etc. and our ancestors did claim our Hawaiian Archipelago, did charge ships and received income for whaling, etc. in these waters.
Due to the breach of Treaties with the Kingdom of Hawaii, and many recently uncovered issues of piracy(ies) on the high seas, conspiracies to dethrone our Queen, placing her under duress, etc.you are totally illegal and a danger to all in our Hawaiian Islands, and all nations.
You have been the Shark on the Lands and Shark on the Seas that my grandfather talked about. You are about an EXTERMINATION CAMPAIGN, with animosities towards PEOPLE OF COLOR, you are everything about SCUM, pouring toxins, poisons, contaminants, setting off Depleted Uranium with little regard for all life in our Islands, including sea life, sea creatures.
Armed, you are NOT Welcomed here, you Fail to maintain the health, safety, of your own people who call themselves citizens...you have broken every treaty with all nations for failing to maintain the health and safety of other nations citizens as well... you have No Treaty with the Hawaiian Kingdom and only nations with our government such as Japan, Spain, Germany, etc. are acceptable and allowed to cruise our Islands, according to the terms of the treaties recognized.
You are about causing our people harm, duress, greed, animosities towards ALL PEOPLE OF COLOR, inclined to ruin everything in your path, WAR fanatics, about violence, uncivilized activities, filth, toxin spewing, contamination, plundering, abuses, bankruptcy, piracy(ies), exploitation, racketeering, criminal activities, belligerent monsters who fail to understand peace, love, the true meaning of aloha. The U.S. military activities have been illegal and remain illegal, don't belong in our Neutral, non-violent, friendly nation which happens to be filled with the true land owners, Royal persons from a Monarchy, Constitutional Monarchy government.
You are the death star for all civilizations on earth, a danger to all on earth with your Mason/Freemason activities, corporations used to plant your foot in all nations with military support and ultimately seeking the elimination of the "needless and useless eaters", the Slavery supporting One World Order, New World Order.
You are an indication of what hell is all about and about all that is wicked and evil. You are all things contrary to life. You are the early American 13 penal colonies rolled in one.
Rents and Leases and due, for lands, and other activities around our Hawaiian archipelago. Plundering upon other nations ships around our Hawaiian archipelago is unacceptable, providing they have permanent treaties with our nation, the Kingdom of Hawaii/Hawaiian Kingdom/Hawaiian Islands/Hawaiian archipelago/He Mokupuni Pae Aina o Hawaii.
Sincerely with peace and truth
Amelia Gora, a Royal person,
Acting Liaison of Foreign Affairs from
the Kingdom of Hawaii,
a friendly neutral nation
