Hearings Set For Proposed Iolani Palace Rules

HONOLULU – The Department of Land and Natural Resources has scheduled a series of statewide hearings to gather input on proposed rule amendments for the use and protection of the 'Iolani Palace State Monument.

'Iolani Monument is one of the most important historical and cultural resources in Hawai'i, and consists of the historic Palace, coronation pavilion, Royal Barracks, Kanaina Building (old Archives) and Kekauluohi Building (modern-day State Archives), as well as the 11 acres of palace grounds, perimeter wall and wrought iron fence, DLNR officials said.

"The State is proposing to establish new administrative rules for 'Iolani Palace State Monument that will help protect and preserve the historic and cultural significance of this important piece of Hawai'i's history and heritage for future generations; and meet the Monument's education mission to preserve the character of Hawai'i's monarchy era," said Laura H. Thielen, DLNR chairperson.

"We invite all interested individuals to attend a public hearing to present relevant information and opinions for the DLNR to consider," Thielen said.

Meetings will begin at 6:30 p.m. except on Lana'i where the meeting begins at 5 p.m. The schedule is as follows:

On January 15, 1993 by State Notary Public document attached to this testimony, I renounced my citizenship to the United States. I am testifying today as a Hawaiian Nationalist of the Hawaiian Kingdom. Whose lawful government was overthrown by the diplomatic and military forces of the United States on January 17, 1893.I strongly OPPOSE the passage into law the “Iolani Palace State Monument Restrictions.”On January 31, 2008 the Hawaii Supreme Court ruled that Native Hawaiians have a claim to the Public Trust Lands of Hawaii. The Hawaii Supreme Court ruling was based on the findings of Public Law 103-150. Signed into law by President William Clinton on November 23, 1993.In part Public Law 103-150 recognized that “the indigenous Hawaiian people never directly relinquished their claims to their inherent sovereignty as a people or over their national lands to the United States, either through their monarchy or through a plebiscite or referendum.”The entire grounds of Iolani Palace are one of the two most scared national lands of the the indigenous Hawaiian people. The other being the lands of the Royal Mausoleum in Nuuanu.The State of Hawaii and its governmental entities including the DLNR has no lawful jurisdiction to control, enforce or deny the indigenous Hawaiian people of their inherent sovereign right to freely access the grounds of Iolani Palace.As holders of the Sovereignty that is cited in Ua Mau Ke Ea O Ka Aina I Ka Pono, it is the indigenous Hawaiian people who are the Sovereigns of Hawaii. It is the indigenous Hawaiian people who lawfully hold the Sovereignty over Hawaii. Not the State of Hawaii or DLNR. You may hold the Weapons of Massive Destruction, but not the Sovereignty!Page 2August 13, 2008DLNRFor many years, perhaps over 30 years in the pass I have gathered many times on the grounds of Iolani Palace. Never have I seen any indigenous Hawaiian conduct themselves that warrants the proposed “Iolani Palace State Monument restrictions.”The rights of the indigenous Hawaiian people are separate and independent of the general public. In September 2007 the United Nationsadopted the “Declaration on the Rights of the Indigenous Peoples.” I highly recommend that the Director and members of the DLNR immediately read the Declaration on the Rights of the Indigenous Peoples.I believe that including the indigenous Hawaiian people into the rights of the general public is a very serious intent violation of the United Nations’ Declaration.Mahalo nui for the opportunity to present my testimony on this very important issue. Once more I strongly OPPOSE the passage into law the Iolani Palace State Monument restrictions.It is said that some times wrongful laws needs to be tested with civil disobedience.

US nuclear submarine leaked radiation over 2 yearsBy MARI YAMAGUCHI, AP, 3 days agoTOKYO (AP) — An American nuclear-powered submarine leaked radiation for more than two years, releasing the bulk of the material in its home port of Guam and at Pearl Harbor, Japanese and U.S. officials said Thursday.On Aug. 1, the U.S. Navy notified Japan that the USS Houston had leaked water containing small amounts of radiation during three calls to the southern Japanese ports of Sasebo and Okinawa in March and April this year but caused no threat to people or the environment.The U.S. Navy released a detailed chronology of the leaks over the past two years, showing that the cumulative radioactivity released was less than 9.3 micro curies — with 8 micro curies released in Guam alone. By comparison, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the average amount of radioactivity in a smoke detector is about one micro curie, or 1 millionth of a curie.Navy Commander Jeff Davis said the Houston is still in Hawaii being repaired and the reactor is turned off. Once the leak was discovered last month, the Navy provided detailed data to the Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory — a government facility — to determine exactly how much radiation had leaked over the two year time period, Davis said.The amount is so small, he said, that the Navy terms it a "weepage" rather than a leak. The problem was discovered on July 17, when about a gallon of water spilled onto a crew member when a fitting came loose. The water had previously come in contact with the reactor, but no radioactivity was detected on the sailor.The radiation leak has caused a stir in Japan where the continued presence of the U.S. military and its nuclear vessels draw complaints from residents about crime, noise and pollution linked to some 50,000 American servicemen based in the country. The presence of nuclear submarines is particularly sensitive, given that Japan is the only country the U.S. ever used atomic bombs against in the closing days of World War II."If we add all radiation leaked at every Japanese port, it would be still smaller than the amount of naturally occurring radioactivity found inside home smoke detectors," the Japanese foreign ministry said in a statement accompanying its release of the U.S. report. "Japan also has found no abnormality in its monitoring results during Houston's port calls since June 2006."News of the incident also comes just weeks ahead of the arrival of the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS George Washington to be based in Yokosuka, just south of Tokyo.Davis said the problem would not affect the USS George Washington's move."This goes to show the people of Japan and the government of Japan that they can be reassured that the United States Navy will be forthright in disclosing details about any inadvertent release of radioactivity, even when it is extremely small."The George Washington's arrival, originally set for August under a Japan-U.S. security alliance, was delayed until late September because of a fire aboard the vessel in May, another incident that has caused safety concerns in Japan.According to the Navy's chronology, the Houston released 8 micro curies in its home port of Guam and .4 micro curies in Pearl Harbor. In addition to the leaks in Japan — a total of .605 micro curies at the three ports — , the ship also released small amounts of radiation during port visits in Singapore, Port Kelang, Malaysia; and Saipan.Associated Press Writer Lolita C. Baldor contributed to this report from Washington.

Let's pretend I visit your house. You offer me food and rest. I decide to stay. Then, I order you and your family around, use your things and rearrange the rooms. I take down your photos and religious symbols, replace them with my own and make you speak my language. One day, I dig up your garden and replace it with crops that I can sell. You and your family must now buy all of your food from me. Later, I invite my father and his buddies over. They bring guns. We take your keys. I forge a deed and declare my father to be the owner of your house. I bring more people. Some work for me. Some pay me to stay in your house. I seize your savings and spend it on my friends. You and your family now sleep on the porch. Finally you protest. Being reasonable, I let you stay in a corner of the house and give you a small allowance, but only if you behave. I tell you, "Sorry, I was wrong for taking the house." But when you demand your house back, I tell you to be realistic. "You are part of this family now, whether you like it or not," I say. "Besides, this is for your own good. For all that I have done for you, why aren't you grateful?"Now Do You See Why Hawaiians Want Nation Back?

Kakau vs. Tattoo

This is my first blog entry in quite a while. Haven't been moved to write until now.Yesterday I took my cousin and her boyfriend who are visiting from California to a Tattoo shop. Her boyfriend whom I’ll call Tim wanted to get a “tribal” tattoo done before he left so I tagged along just to make sure the place was kosher and operating within DOH guidelines.The shop was very nice, clean and legal, which was a good thing. As usual the shop featured a number of samples of the various artists work as well as volumes of photo’s of past customers. The artist that would be applying the ink had done some “technically” excellent work, beautiful bold designs featuring Polynesian motifs . I’ll discuss my “technically” comment shortly.Tim had brought a downloaded picture of the design style he would like to achieve and that served as the starting point for their discussion of the final work. At the beginning of the process the artist explained that all of his work is a one-of-a-kind original piece applied freehand after the design is drawn onto the customer. I was very pleased to hear this as most shops will usually draw up or copy a design from an existing album then transfer it to a stencil using a thermal-fax system.Once the design elements were decided on the drawing process began directly onto skin to layout the parameters of the work. This was very similar to the process that Chaz had used on both of my moko. The layout process took about 45-minutes and after completion it was time to push ink.The entire process took a little over 4-hours from start to finish and again I will admit the tattoo was beautiful. Would I have the same work done on me?. The answer is no, not anymore and here’s why.As I mentioned the work was “technically” excellent. Much, much better than most of the “tribal” work I have seen over the past few years. However what was missing was the essence of the traditional Polynesian kakau or moko. There was no discussion of what each of the design elements stood for. There was no discussion of family genealogy, no discussion of the tattoo representing a birthplace or mythology. To me it seemed as though the piece was in essence nothing more than a bumper sticker commemorating a trip to Hawaii. Is this being harsh? Maybe so, but it has also made me appreciate even more the work I have had done.When I look at the first piece of work from Chaz I can remember the two to three hours that we talked before he would even begin drawing. I can look at each and every element and see my family genealogy, I can see the lei ‘o mano, I can see the hammerhead shark, I can hear the mo’olelo. I can remember one of the best days of my life spent with my Maori brother on a lanai at Maunalani Heights. I remember the pain.During our trip to Rapa Nui in 1999 I had the honor of meeting and receiving a kakau from Panda Pakarati. When I approached him about a kakau we began a four-day process of discussion just to create one image. He wanted me to wear something that would tie me to Rapa. Eventually the design we came up with was based on an image I had seen on a petroglyph at Rano Kau. This image came to Panda in a dream the night before we were to leave Rapa. I remember the pain.I will admit that early on I was in the same “chair” so to speak as Tim was yesterday. Prior to my leaving Guam and returning home to Hawai’i in 1996 I had a traditional Micronesian tattoo design of two dolphins applied to my leg. This was my first and last bumper sticker. This was before I joined the halau and have learned much since then.Having a kakau or moko applied by a traditional practioner will ensure that you have acknowledged your past, recognized your ancestors and remembered your birthright. You will have forever made a statement that goes far beyond the ink that is resting below your skin.

A forward about Land Title in Hawai'i--very good backgroundtopic posted Fri, June 24, 2005 - 10:33 AM by HunakaiAloha,In response to the drivel about our lands being been "taken":There is no record of acquisition of jurisdiction of Ko Hawaii Pae Aina by the U.S. or the "state" of Hawaii. There has only been one legal passage of title; both legal and beneficial -- they are one in the same. That took place during the Mahele Aina. ONCE and ONLY ONE TIME. (mahele means to share in our language - the word Ka'awale means to "divide")No General Recording Act existsNo Comity granted by either nationNo legitimate transfer of millions of Royal Patents; joint or otherwiseNo Absolute Monarchy to wield deprivation powersNo recorded proclamationNo treatyNone. No record. Nada.By the record below, the U.S. has no title or legitimate claim. Why quitclaim Kahoolawe to the "state" if you own the legal title? Yes. quitclaimed, I was there.The U.S. claims use and occupation by virtue of acts created by the republic; August 15, 1895, August 12, 1898, JRT: July 7, 1898 negotiated in 1897.The U.S. is a business partner to the Republic - still a 'club' of select members enjoying privileges of the U.S. as a "state." Read their constitutions very, very good. The Land has never been taken and people that say such things, are ignorant of the facts and laws that govern.Do not use the word "overthrow" either - legal definition is - "conquer." That never took place here and you should know the elements of that act; did not and do not exist at all, same with a "republic" being formed -- never happened. Who is feeding the drivel out there to the people? Same guys; agitators called experts from the U.S. sent her to "help."The Akaka bill only serves to cloud the issue even more - correct it and send the finished copy to congress of the U.S. for review. Do something about it, now before they pile on more cr*&.Thanks for reading my two cents;-)O wau iho no,Mahealani Ventura-OliverLand Title Examiner & ParalegalThe Title Wave, Inc.Ko Hawaii Pae Aina808-870-0422808-244-0469posted by:Hunakaioffline Hunakai128 friends

WHO’S PUSHING DOPE TO DESTROY INDIGENOUS YOUTH?

This concerns us in Hawai'i, also:WHO’S PUSHING DOPE TO DESTROY INDIGENOUS YOUTH?By Karakwine and MNN StaffMNN. Aug. 4, 2008. Drug abuse in Indigenous communities is not random. Someone wants us to be pacified and to push us to have a total social breakdown. They want our brains, morals and ambition destroyed. They want our Indigenous youth to be criminalized and minimized. Drug abuse creates misfits and society dropouts who are supposed to be discarded and discredited. It stops us from campaigning for our social and political rights. The colonists want us to shut up. They don’t want to acknowledge their obligation to us. They don’t want to admit they are on stolen land.It’s an old strategy.Going back to the 1830s Britain was the world’s major drug trafficker. The Europeans were jealous of the Chinese. They had so many beautiful items like silk, porcelain, spices, etc. Britain only had wool to trade, which the Chinese did not need. The Europeans had to get silver to trade with China. They also had tobacco from Turtle Island. To increase demand for tobacco they cut it with opium from India. Before long, huge numbers around the trading ports in Canton [the modern city of Guangzhou] were addicted. Silver began draining out of China and ruining the economy.The Chinese emperor passed a law forbidding the import of opium. They wrote to Queen Victoria asking her to control her nationals and stop the illegal trade. The Chinese announced all opium would be seized and burned. U.S. traders ignored the ban and brought in a shipment to Canton. It was confiscated and burned in public.The Americans got the British to declare war on China. The “Opium War” was to defend the “right” of drug dealers. The Chinese were not warlike. They did not have a big army to defend themselves from the British. The British won the war and forced the Chinese to give them a lot of land around Hong Kong. This has since been returned to them. China was forced to make opium legal along with unrestricted propagation of Christianity. The affect was devastating.A lot of research was done on how a few were able to defeat a population of millions through drugs. In the end the Chinese regained their independence. We Indigenous People of Turtle Island are in the midst of this same kind of struggle. Shouldn’t we ask why is the U.S. in Afghanistan? It is the source of over 90% of the world’s opium! Does somebody want the whole world to be stoned!In the 1940’s, British writer Aldous Huxley, who wrote “Brave New World”, went to the U.S. He recruited Allen Watts who became the guru of a nationwide Zen Buddhist cult in California in the 1950s and 1960s. He founded the “Pacifica Foundation” which sponsored two radio stations that pushed the “Liverpool sound”. This was the British imported “hard” rock twang of the Rolling Stones, the Beatles and the Animals. They also pioneered “acid rock” and eventually “psychotic punk rock”.In 1943 LSD was developed by Albert Hoffman, a chemist at Sandoz A.B. – a Swiss pharmaceutical owned by banker, S.G. Warburg. [He’s a Federal Reserve shareholder]. British and U.S. intelligence were directly involved.The book “Aquarian Conspiracy” described how new age philosophy was blended with the promotion of the drug culture. “The introduction of major psychedelics in the 1960s was largely attributable by the Central Intelligence Agency CIA’s investigation for possible military use”. It was codenamed “MK Ultra”.In the 1960s kids in the U.S. were protesting against the Vietnam War. The U.S. establishment did not know what to do. On May 4, 1970, the National Guard shot four kids at Kent State University in Ohio. They were protesting against the U.S. invasion of Cambodia ordered by President Nixon. The shooting was meant to quell the demonstrations against the war. It didn’t work.To divert the youth, a humongous drug movement was started. The 1968 mega concert at Woodstock in Sullivan County New York was part of the drug and “free love” movement sponsored by companies like Capitol Records. In New York City the “Ed Sullivan Show” displayed these groups nationwide to promote the drug culture.For the U.S. to continue its warmongering it had to corrupt and destroy its opposition, the youth. According to recently released CIA documents, Allen Dulles, the then head of the CIA, purchased over 100 million doses of LSD – most of which flooded the streets of the USA during the late 1960s. [Illuminaticonspiracyarchives.com].The plan is for every instinct for survival to be controlled by drugs. The drugs produced naturally by the body are being replaced by drugs being manufactured by the multi-national corporations.Today, as a result of 911, the climate of fear has been promoted over the U.S. and Canada. The kids are told that fear can be shut out by going into this false artificial world created by drugs, pills and music. The kids lose touch with reality and are not able to understand or cope with social abuse.Today multi-national corporations and pharmaceuticals have control of recording companies, music, radio stations, television programming, films, mainstream news [msn] and advertising [almost total mind control]. A common theme is U.S. based “ghetto rap”. They are producing these themes for the vulnerable minds of the young people to confuse and control them. The kids learn to switch into rap and drug culture talk. Computers, games and cell phones are programmed to take them into this world.It is normal for people to react when there’s a problem. Often they blame people improperly like their fathers, mothers, girlfriends, boyfriends or people around them. The drugs divert them so their critical thinking doesn’t develop to a level where they can understand complex issues. Drugs create a rift between older generations and young people and to break up families. When people are emotionally hurt by broken families, they can’t think straight. This leaves them insecure, paranoid and open to manipulation by big business.Drugs have replaced the residential school program as a means of committing genocide. The difference is that they’ve persuaded our youth to commit the crimes on themselves. Anyone who wants to get out of it can if they are determined. Elders are there to counsel them. While they are off the drugs they start talking to them and get them back into reality and with their families. After treatment they need help and support and to occupy themselves.It’s an uphill battle for these counselors. Drugs are being flooded into Indigenous communities to stop people from thinking or asking questions. The colonists want to be able to lure us into giving up everything we have. In the majority of cases the youth experiment with drugs and then reject it. They get on with their lives. The oldest and the youngest are not involved. Those escaping it are able to stay in school. They are taught to deal with enticement from other kids and dealers. In any society the youth in between are vulnerable. Many of our elders know there’s hope for this generation.Marijuana is many times more powerful than it was in the 1960s. Other drugs are even more dangerous. Some, like chrystal meth, cause brain damage after one shot. The teachers and medical personnel get children on Ritalin and other drugs. Some parents use it to shoot up. It’s vicious! Those Indigenous people who are bringing drugs into our communities have been colonized into wanting power and control over us. Thus, the push for more powerful drugs onto our people!For this plan to be effective, they need to keep us idle and spaced out. Some government or police agents or medical personnel who say they are fighting drugs are actually promoting drugs. The whole dirty business keeps a few people rich. In some cases the dealers are co-opt to become “snitches” in exchange for protection. They purportedly supply information on us and are free to provide drugs to the community to weaken and destroy us. They’re never busted when there’s a “crack down” or a raid! Why?There are people in every Indigenous community who are fighting it. The battle will be won. We have the power to say “no” when somebody offers us drugs. We have to finish school and get a job. We all have to help our communities. Our indigenous youth are smart, dignified, respectful of elders and not prone to act without thinking. We are not “terrorists”. We are builders. Our young people are relearning our languages, ceremonies and carrying them on. We are defenders of Turtle Island.

KAUA`I PROTEST ENDS PEACEFULLY

“We’re Leaving On Our Own Terms” Say ProtestersNaue, Kaua`i – The protest at the residential property of Joseph Brescia stopping luxury home construction over an ancient Hawaiian cemetery on Kaua`i’s North Shore has ended peacefully late this afternoon.“Were leaving on our own terms,” remarked protestor Andre Perez of Pohaku O Kane. “Should Governor Lingle fail to intervene and construction start up again, we will be back in force.”Over thirty protestors and cultural practitioners from O`ahu, Maui, Molokai and Hawai`i Island had arrived this morning and secured themselves to each other and the property by means of a popular activist lock-down device that results in law enforcement authorities spending several hours in an attempt to remove them.The property, formerly owned by actor Sylvester Stallone, and purchased by California luxury homebuilder Joseph Brescia seven years ago, is considered culturally sacred and contains at least thirty ancient burials as well as numerous artifacts.

TASER GUNS NEXT STEP ON KAUA`I PROTESTERS?

Unconfirmed Reports Say Kaua`i Police Ready To Escalate StandoffNaue, Kaua`i – Protesters have heard unconfirmed reports that Kaua`i police are now considering the use of taser guns to break up the all-day stand-off between them and law enforcement officials at the Naue burial site.“Wouldn’t using taser guns on peaceful protestors be a violation of the use of “force continuum?” asked protester Andre Perez of Pohaku O Kane. “This would no doubt incur a major liability for Kaua`i police by the use of this kind of force.”The protesters, who range in age, have been occupying the Joseph Brescia property throughout the day to stop further construction over a well-documented ancient Hawaiian cemetery containing the remains of at least thirty individuals.“We do have people here who have had heart attacks and other health problems and our concern is their survival should Kaua`i police use this potentially lethal type of force,” remarked Perez.Kaua`i residents who have arrived at the scene are also expressing concern for the protester’s well being.

Naue, Kaua`i - In a surprise show of force, Kanaka Maoli (native Hawaiians) from throughout Hawai`i have converged on the residential property of Joseph Brescia in a dramatic attempt to stop further luxury home construction over an ancient Hawaiian cemetery on Kaua`i’s North Shore.Over thirty protestors and cultural practitioners from O’ahu, Maui, Molokai and Hawai`i Island arrived this morning and secured themselves to each other and the property by means of a popular activist lock-down device that will result in law enforcement authorities spending several hours in an attempt to remove them.“Our goal is to make them forcefully remove us,” states protestor Andre Perez of Pohaku O Kane. “This is not just about Kaua`i. We’re serious about protecting our iwi kupuna, our `aina, and our lahui. "The property, formerly owned by actor Sylvester Stallone, and purchased by California luxury homebuilder Joseph Brescia seven years ago, is considered culturally sacred and contains at least thirty ancient burials as well as numerous artifacts.With legal challenges currently in progress, previous protests had stopped construction until recently when concrete was poured directly over the well-documented bones of ancient Hawaiians on the property.”We’re sick of rich foreigners coming over here and destroying the resting places of our families,” remarked Keli`i Collier. “Hawaiians do not desecrate the graves of others, why do they desecrate ours?”Construction of a home or any other substantive structure on a cemetery is considered an extreme cultural affront.Moreover, claim of property ownership is also in dispute since specific Hawaiians can trace their families having lived on that parcel going back centuries, and no clear title on property exists throughout Hawai`i.Kauai.jpg
