But an interesting development has now slowed down the Hawai`i fake state Akaka bill versions – the Lili`uokalani Executive agreements.
These still legally binding agreements compel the US to de-occupy Hawai`i and restore the Hawaiian Kingdom government to power.
An outpouring of community demand has forced the Hawai`i legislature to appoint a committee to investigate.
And now support is spreading because an entirely new and significant entity in Hawai`i has jumped on the bandwagon.
What is it and what impact could it have for a Free Hawai`i? Find out this coming Wednesday on Free Hawai`i TV.
Uncle Les Kuloloio is one of those very special people who has a way with words when he’s in a place that inspires him - the beaches of Maui.
If you’ve ever had someone explain a familiar place as though you’d never seen it before, Les does just that for us in our beach walk with him all this week on Hawai`i’s award winning Voices Of Truth – One-On-One With Hawai`i’s Future.

Last Friday (April 1st) marked the first anniversary of the creation of the Chagos Marine Protected Area. For Hawaiian Nationals events involving island communities in the Indian Ocean may not be a priority concern at this time given the significance of the the HCR 107 debate locally, however residents of archipelagos globally often share historical commonalities and the study of these are oftentimes disputed and contested particularly at the legal level (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article7104266.ece) which can lead to a rewarding transparency of events locally in Ko Hawai'i Pae 'Aina particularly in the pursuit of justice arena.
In the latter part of the 1960s and early 1970s inhabitants of these coral atolls were forcibly displaced to make way for a U.S. military base on Diego Garcia the largest of the islands. Many of these 1,500 to 2,000 original inhabitants are now deceased with their descendants residing in Mauritius, Britain, and the Seychelles. To its credit Wikipedia have an extensive article on Diego Garcia with a number of external resources for information to comprehend the issue for the novice and interested parties available by clicking here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diego_Garcia
Chagossians as the islanders are known remain divided as to the benefits and disadvantages of the Chagos Marine Protected Area, many believe the Protected Area the largest marine reserve on Earth, at a whopping 545,000-square kilometers will prevent the Chagos Islanders from ever returning ostensibly the purpose of the Reserve is to prevent deep-sea mining, industrial fishing, and protect corals and wildlife. According to Allen Vincatassin, President of the Government in Exile of the Chagossian People (a.k.a. Diego Garcia and Chagos Islands Council) the Government will make good that the MPA will be adjusted to incorporate fishing livelihood rights in the event the Chagos Islanders do return. This has been queried by a Wikileaks U.S. cable revelation last December which revealed that Colin Roberts of the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office for Overseas Territory allegedly said the MPA should have quote: "no human footprints" or "Man Fridays." The historical strategic value of the Chagos Islands as with Hawai'i is immense to the powers of domination and can be understood on the larger canvas by clicking here:
http://www.us-uk-interventions.org/Chagos_Islands.html
One is reminded of the U.S. army spy General John Schofield's secret task to the Hawaiian Kingdom in 1872 to conduct an investigation into the viability of a U.S. military presence on the islands and under this pretext he later testified: "If we do not occupy and fortify Pearl Harbor our enemy will occupy it as a base from which to conduct operations against our Pacific coast." The campaign tactics of the Chagossians are worthy of monitoring by Hawaiian Nationals in order to draw comparative analysis locally. Further data on the Chagos Islands is available here: http://www.chagossupport.org.uk.
April 22nd marks International Mother Earth Day, the Universal Declaration of the Rights of Mother Earth adopted at the Cochabamba summit in Bolivia last year (http://motherearthrights.org) provides a legal framework in the preservation and protection of this wonderful home we call Earth and encourages us all to actively participate in the banquet of life.

The Akaka Bill Is UnconstitutionalOn December19, 1842, United States President John Tyler recognized the Hawaiian Kingdom as an independent
and sovereign State, extended full and complete diplomatic recognition to the Hawaiian Government, and entered into
treaties and conventions with the Hawaiian government in 1849, 1875 and 1887.
After the illegal overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii of January 1893 Queen Lili'uokalani submitted her complaint to President Crover Cleveland. He sent congressmen James Blount to conduct an investigation after his investigation congressmen Blount
lowered the American Flag and raised the Hawaiian Flag and restored the Hawaiian Nation back to its sovereign status.
During December of 1893 both Queen Lili'uokalani and President Grover Cleveland both signed executive agreements to
formally restore the Hawaiian Kingdom back to its natural independent status.
State House Concurrent Resolution 107 just passed the Hawaiian Affairs Committee was set up to
investigate the executive orders by the Queen and President Cleveland.
Hawaii is still an independent nation it always was and it always will be !
The Akaka Bill is unconstitutional.

SB 367 SD3 HD1would create a PUC regulatory structure for undersea cables whereby ratepayers would carry all of the risk and the utility would make all of the profit.
* The utility argument was that it had to happen this year so that a cable company could be chosen this fall.
However, which islands will get proposed windfarms and which size the undersea cables need to be has hit a snag.
Last year the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) ruled that both FirstWind (Moloka`i) and Castle & Cooke (Lana`i) had to file with the PUC by March 18, 2011 term sheets laying out the cost of wind energy.
FirstWind defaulted and did not file a timely excuse. Almost 2 weeks late, FirstWind asked for an 8 month extension.
* The argument that Big Wind is the only answer is also in dispute. The Big Wind EIS Preparation Notice said that there are two alternatives, Big Wind with planning and Big Wind without planning.
Numerous comments to the EISPN challenged this.
DBEDT Office of Planning (March 1, 2011): “it is necessary for the draft EIS to explore alternatives”
US Environmental Protection Agency (Feb 28, 2011): “We recommend analysis of additional alternatives as early as possible”
Rather than rush thru a bad piece of legislation, we should wait until it has been determined whether Big Wind makes sense, and if so, under what conditions.
Please hold SB 367

HAWAIIANS OPPOSE AKAKA BILL
We once again voice our strong opposition of your seditious Akaka Bill as Hawai`i nationals of the Kingdom of Hawai`i, including native Hawaiians for which this Bill is being created for....
...The Bill spreads misinformation and is not a road to reconciliation to right the wrongs committed by the United States of America against the citizens of the Hawaiian Kingdom....
Contrary to Senator Akaka's statement, we do not desire to be on equal footing with American Indians under the Department of the Interior nor subjected to its paternalistic practices.
We have already been recognized by the United States of America as an independent sovereign nation-state which we have never relinquished.
We reject this legislation providing parity in federal policy towards indigenous people, especially because we are not indigenous to the United States but bona fide subjects of the still existent Kingdom of Hawai`i albeit under the US belligerent occupation of which the United States is in continuous violation of the international law of occupation....
He Hawai`i au,
David M.K. Inciong, II
Pearl City, O`ahu
Occupied Hawai`i
Dear Mr. Van Dyke and Senator Akaka:
We once again voice our strong opposition of your seditious Akaka Bill as Hawaii nationals of the Kingdom of Hawaii, including native Hawaiians for which this Bill is being created for. The Akaka Bill is self-contradictory and fosters the WASP racist Manifest Destiny doctrines. The Bill spreads misinformation and is not a road to reconciliation to right the wrongs committed by the United States of America against the citizens of the Hawaiian Kingdom. It's a sophism.
Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act of 2011 (S.675) and the introduced identical companion bill (H.R. 1250) in the U.S. House of Representatives are repugnant and railroading native Hawaiians into a nefarious U.S. hostage box.
Contrary to Senator Akaka's statement, we do not desire to be on equal footing with American Indians under the Department of the Interior nor subjected to its paternalistic practices. We have already been recognized by the United States of America as an independent sovereign nation-state which we have never relinquished. We reject this legislation providing parity in federal policy towards indigenous people, especially because we are not indigenous to the United States but bona fide subjects of the still existent Kingdom of Hawaii albeit under the U.S. belligerent occupation of which the United States is in continuous violation of the international law of occupation.
Again, Senator Inouye plays with semantics when stating the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act is the right to self-determination and self-governance. This is an attempt to usurp the jurisdiction, territory, and the governance of the still-existing Kingdom of Hawaii. This measure begins a process of establishing a government to government relationship between the federal government and the native people of Hawaii is misleading and disingenuous. An ultra vires process to re-form a Native Hawaiian government that could negotiate with the state and federal government on behalf of Hawaii's indigenous people is plainly synesthesia.
We, Hawaii nationals and oppoonents to the bill, have been barred and supressed from testimony in U.S. Congress and the pertinent committees that need to hear our objections. This sweeping cover-up is done to give the proponents free-rein to control the outcome for elite pecuniary benefits and not for the true benefit for the native Hawaiians.
As Congresswoman Mazie K. Hirono puts it: Senator Akaka as Chairman of the Indian Affairs Committee as he is able to set the Committee’s agenda and will be able to push the bill forward in the Senate and work with the new House Majority.
Congresswoman Colleen Hanabusa erroneously said, "this bill will allow them to continue on the path towards reconciliation with the United States." We know this to be not the case. Justice for Hawaii will be for the United States of America to de-occupy Hawaii and re-instate the Kingdom of Hawaii, respect our human rights, and honor the ratified treaties we have with it as the Supreme Law of the land as stated in its Constitution.
Governor Neil Abercrombie said: "This measure is long overdue as enabling legislation allowing Native Hawaiians and the State of Hawaii to resolve outstanding issues fairly and comprehensively." This can only be done by returning Hawaii to its multi-ethnic nationals of the Kingdom of Hawaii and observing the international laws and the constitutional laws of the Kingdom of Hawaii and that of the United States.
We are cognizant that the treaty of annexation twice submitted were rejected by President Cleveland and then by the U.S. Congress for a lack of 2/3rds majority vote as spelled out by the U.S. Constitution. The Newlands Resolution was unlawful and had no jurisdiction in Hawaii or any other foreign country because it is a domestic, internal instrument, only valid within its own territory and not beyond it.
President Barack Obama adheres to his party line and being born and raised in U.S. occupied Hawaii. The U.S Department of Justice's support of the bill is dubious since legal issues raised by proposed Presidential Proclamation to extend the territorial sea, which came from the opinions of the Office of Legal Counsel, vol. 12, p. 238-263, October 4, 1988, which the excerpts commenting on the annexation of Hawaii are found on pp. 250-252.
The snollygosters have enlisted the support of the National Congress of American Indians, the Alaska Federation of Natives, and groups throughout the Native Hawaiian community including the Association of Hawaiian Civic Clubs, the Native Hawaiian Bar Association, the Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement, and two state agencies which represent the interests of the Native Hawaiian people, the Office of Hawaiian Affairs and the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands to push its agenda regardless of what the native Hawaiians want. Many could be suffering from the Stockholme Syndrome or will benefit greatly from this Bill at the expense of the native Hawaiians and certainly from all the Hawaii nationals of the Hawaiian Kingdom.
Referring to the Apology Bill, Senator Slade Gorton remarked, "...the only logical consequence is total independence." We whole-heartedly agree.
The Honolulu Advertiser's Poll regarding the Akaka Bill dated 23 February, 2010 had 4,500 respondents that participated. it read that 10 percent needed more time; 30 percent said Yes, they were for it; and 60 percent said No, they were against it. It seems higly questionable that a poll published by the Honolulu Advertiser in May of last year reported that 66 percent Hawaii resident support federal recognition for Native Hawaiians, and 82 percent of Native Hawaiians polled support federal recognition. Note that the number of respondents were not listed.
It's laughable to believe this is a parity government-to-government relationship with the United States to address issues such as criminal and civil jurisdiction, historical grievances, and jurisdiction and control of natural resources, lands, and assets. It's an attempt to continue to steal jurisdiction, natural resources, lands and assets from the Kingdom of Hawaii and its citizens. We understand quite well how decisions will be made; piracy on the high seas at its best! We will continue to oppose your criminal actions.
He Hawaii au,
Tane
YES - 30%
NO - 60%
NEED MORE TIME - 10%

Against seemingly long odds in both chambers of Congress, US Senator Daniel Akaka renewed his long-standing effort to secure federal recognition for native Hawaiians.
Akaka and Democratic colleague U.S. Sen. Dan Inouye introduced yesterday the latest version of the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act, better known as the Akaka Bill.
Democratic US Representatives Mazie Hirono and Colleen Hanabusa introduced the same bill in the House....
...At least one political analyst expects the measure to be dead on arrival in the partisan atmosphere of the nation’s capital. “I don’t think there’s any chance at all it would get passed,” said Neal Milner, a University of Hawai`i political scientist.
“The Republicans have had what they consider to be principled objections to the idea for the past, at least, five or six years, and that’s really what’s always kept it from going forward more than anything else.”
One of our CNHA members, Blossom Feiteira sent the attached letter to DHHL Director Nahalea. It relates directly to one of the policy priorities of the Native Hawaiian Policy Center, which is notification and information to beneficiaries about DHHL intentions to utilize trust lands for non-homesteading purposes prior to taking land actions to the Hawaiian Homes Commission for action.
I think Blossom eloquently shares what many of you have shared over the years. I also want to thank all of you for working on the Land Use Policy, that if DHHL adopts any part of it, will address most concerns shared by beneficiary leaders. Mahalo Blossom for sharing your heartfelt manao with the new DHHL Chairman, and also for sharing it with the CNHA policy center!

In a departure from form, some hearing notices for the Hawaiian affairs committees in the Hawai`i Legislature this session have included the following quote -
"He lā hou, e ho’oulu"
A new day, building a nation
For example, the quote can be seen near the top of a hearing notice for a resolution to be heard Monday in House Hawaiian Affairs. The resolution asks the Office of Hawaiian Affairs to consider the idea of "kanaka villages" for homeless Native Hawaiians.
Most notably, the nation-building quote has graced several hearing notices for bills that actually have something to do with building a Hawaiian nation.
Two of those bills — Senate Bill 1520 and Senate Bill 1 — recognize Hawaiians as "the only indigenous, aboriginal, maoli people of Hawai`i," and establish a commission to "prepare and maintain a roll of qualified Native Hawaiians" for the purpose of organizing a convention of qualified Native Hawaiians, respectively.
Both measures have already comfortably passed the state Senate. Last week, both cleared House Judiciary and were sent to House Finance, the final hurdle before making it to the full House for a floor vote.
Both measures have been amended, and final language will have to be agreed upon in conference committee and floor votes before heading to the governor's desk.
But, if they do survive and become law, they would accomplish some of the same goals as the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act, more commonly known as the Akaka bill.
Hawaiian Lawmakers Push Akaka Bill At State Level

But, if they do survive and become law, they would accomplish some of the same goals as the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act, more commonly known as the Akaka bill.

The Akaka bill would create a process for Native Hawaiians to gain federal recognition similar to Native American and Native Alaskan tribes.
The measure failed to get a floor vote in the U.S. Senate last year despite Democrats holding a near-filibuster proof majority.
With the November elections, Senate Democrats' majority was narrowed and the House fell to Republicans, making passage of the Akaka bill very unlikely over the next two years.
Then, earlier this year, Daniel Akaka — the Hawaii senator for whom the bill is named — announced he would not seek re-election in 2012. Many saw it as a death knell for the controversial legislation.
Some local lawmakers, primarily Native Hawaiians, are trying to keep the process alive, albeit at a state level.
SB 1, for example, was co-authored by Sen. Malama Solomon, while SB 1520 was introduced by Clayton Hee, Brickwood Galuteria, Gil Kahele and Pohai Ryan.
All five senators are Hawaiian. Hee is chairman of Senate Judiciary and Labor, and Galuteria — the majority leader — is chairman of Senate Hawaiian Affairs.
What SB 1520 Does
SB 1520, as currently amended, mirrors much of the language in the Akaka bill.
Though much shorter, the state Senate bill cites key historical events regarding Hawaiians such as the Admission Act of 1959 that created a ceded lands trust, the establishment of OHA in 1978 and the 1993 federal apology for the 1893 overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom.
SB 1520 also directly mentions the Akaka bill, observing that last December the Departments of Justice and Interior reaffirmed federal support for bill: "This reaffirmation recognized that Native Hawaiians are the only one of the nation's three major indigenous peoples who currently lack a formal government-to-government relationship with the United States."
SB 1520 says that the state of Hawaii "has supported the reorganization of a Native Hawaiian governing entity."
It continues:
It is also the State's desire to support the continuing development of a reorganized Native Hawaiian governing entity and, ultimately, the federal recognition of Native Hawaiians. The legislature urges the office of Hawaiian affairs to continue to support the self-determination process by Native Hawaiians in the formation of their chosen governmental entity.
Testifying in support of the measure were the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands, the Native Hawaiian Convention, the Association of Hawaiian Civic Clubs, Imua Alliance and the Sovereign Councils of the Hawaiian Homelands Assembly.
OHA said it was pleased that legislators were addressing Native Hawaiian issues but did not endorse the measure because it does not want to "diminish efforts to pursue and obtain federal recognition."
Ken Conklin, a consistent and outspoken critic of the Akaka bill, called SB 1520 "fundamentally" the same thing:
"The clear purpose of the bill is to authorize the creation of an entity with governmental powers, but restricted to people who have at least one drop of Hawaiian native blood. That racist concept is unconstitutional under the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution."
What SB 1 Does
SB 1, as currently amended, is largely word-for-word identical to SB 1520.
For example, under SB 1 Native Hawaiian people would be recognized as the "only indigenous, aboriginal, maoli people of Hawaii."
Where SB 1 differs, however, is as follows:
The purpose of this chapter is to provide for and to implement the recognition of the Native Hawaiian people by means and methods that will facilitate their self-governance, including the establishment of, or the amendment to, programs, entities, and other matters pursuant to law that relate, or affect ownership, possession, or use of lands by the Native Hawaiian people, and by further promoting their culture, heritage, entitlements, health, education, and welfare.
To that end, SB 1 creates a nine-member Native Hawaiian roll commission to count and certify a Native Hawaiian voting base for a governing entity, likely via a state convention. An unspecified sum of money would be allocated.
In this regard, SB 1 would achieve central goals of the Akaka bill.
But there is an important disclaimer, too: "Nothing in this chapter is intended to serve as a settlement of any claims against the State of Hawaii, or affect the rights of the Native Hawaiian people under state, federal, or international law."
SB 1 is supported by many of the same groups that support SB 1520, but this time they are joined by OHA — but with a similar caveat: "OHA supports state recognition of Native Hawaiians provided that it does not diminish efforts to pursue and obtain federal recognition."
Ken Conklin calls SB 1 "racial separatism."
Malama Solomon says it's about righting a historical injustice.
"The state has to prove its muster, that there is an identifiable community entitled to the rights and responsibilities of a nation," Solomon told House lawmakers earlier this month. "After that, Hawaiians will be allowed to organize how they see fit. ... It is the responsibility of this House to give the legal platform for Native Hawaiians to legally be recognized and then pursue federal recognition."
Solomon says the two bills may be merged into one vehicle.
Renewed Focus on Hawaiian Affairs
There are a number of other bills and resolutions introduced by Native Hawaiian lawmakers this session.
The authors of the "kanaka village" bill, Reps. Mele Carroll and Faye Hanohano, have also sponsored dozens of bills this session — some still alive.
Many non-Hawaiian lawmakers are signing on to the legislation and introducing their own.
The bills cover a range of issues: burial councils, archeological investigations, advisory committees, Hawaiian home lands, college tuition waivers, business incubators, poi preparation, using kahako and okina in government documents.
It's a similar pattern in Senate bills.
On Wednesday, Senate Hawaiian Affairs is scheduled to hear several resolutions pertaining to Hawaiians, including one that encourages all high schools to teach the Hawaiian language and another that calls for a symposium to discuss the idea of a Hawaiian language university within the University of Hawaii.
Senate Hawaiian Affairs is dominated by Hawaiian lawmakers and led by Majority Leader Galuteria. Hanohano chairs House Hawaiian Affairs.
None of these measures would have near the impact of the local Akaka bills, though.

Many think of 1776 as the defining year of American history, when we became a nation devoted to the pursuit of happiness through self- government.
In Unfamiliar Fishes, Sarah Vowell argues that 1898 might be a year just as defining, when, in an orgy of imperialism, the United States annexed Hawai`i, Puerto Rico, and Guam, and invaded first Cuba, then the Philippines, becoming an international superpower practically overnight.
