TIME ENOUGH FOR AKAKA BILL?

I encourage all to continue to write to the Senators to protest this bill and vote NO on it. Akaka claims there was 5 hearings in Hawai'i. What he fails to clarify is that it was a five-day hearing only on Oahu; disregarding the rest of the neighbor islands in the year 2000. He also under-represented the protest and objection of an overwhelming majority of Hawaiians who rebuked the bill. This is when he used semantics to wipe away the objections. It didn't change any of the objections nor was it addressed in the nefarious bill which still maintains its original intentions.

A reconciliation process is laughable as this is not reconciliation (only under their terms). Self-determination is an illusive dream because it's under the limitations set by this bill. Government to government is misleading and fraudulent which doesn't fit in the international law of definition; but stated to dupe one into believing it had parity to the U.S. government which only the Hawaiian Kingdom has. Recognition of the Hawaiian Kingdom nation has already been recognized by the U.S. through its several treaties with the Hawaiian Kingdom. A nation within a nation translates to a nation under belligerent occupation as described within the International laws that both countries accepted.

So how does the U.S. address the law of Occupation and the law of neutrality which the Hawaiian Kingdom signed onto and reaffirmed since 1854? What of the U.S. Constitution that proclaims all ratified treaties are Supreme Law of the Land? What of the Hawaiian Kingdom Constitutional law regarding ratifying /amending its constitutions? What of the Ku'e Petitions? Aren't they a referendum or plebiscite of the people?

We know how the U.S. treats its Alaska natives and American Indian tribes; why would we want similar treatment? Who gives the right for the U.S. to have power over us? Why would we demote ourselves to a much lower status than what the native Americans experience? Why should we surrender our bona fide citizenship as Hawaiian subjects to expatriate to the U.S.A? Trade hulu lei mamo for eagle feathers? I think not!

ALOHA Kakou,
Some people never Give UP. Just as they planned the annexation of Hawaii, they continue their HEWA Actions. We have so many Traitors among our people of the Blood. Without these Hawaiian Traitors there would be No AKaKa BILL.
