President Cleveland at the time said "the lawful government of Hawaii was overthrown." Even stating this a president of the United States was powerless to redress a wrong! How extraordinary! Well, it no less extraordinary that a president commenced two optional "preemptive" wars on the national credit care.Henry Pelifianhttp://uniskywriter.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875069982976812251.post-82434868486841835342011-07-06T14:55:54.701-10:002011-07-06T14:55:54.701-10:00Dr Shibai

Most true revolutions (including the one we just celebrated...with fireworks)require the use of arms and a blood bath. <br /><br />See what is happening in the world now! Blood baths and revolutions.<br /><br />Should the Hawaiians align with a foreign power to get their sovereignty? How about China?<br /><br />Or....wait until the USA collapses like the USSR and then make your moves for independence?<br /><br />Should we non-kanaka maoli even be part of the discussion?<br /><br />Dr ShibaiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875069982976812251.post-22361149405396174322011-07-06T11:39:22.992-10:002011-07-06T11:39:22.992-10:00All ethnicities were recognized in the Hawaiian Ki...All ethnicities were recognized in the Hawaiian Kingdom unlike the Akaka Bill which attempts to make us a tribal entity of the "blood". Non-Hawaiians signed the Ku'e petitions protesting annexation as well as nearly the entire Hawaiian population did in 1897. <br /><br />Kanaka never relinquished their sovereignty and this bogus state entity called OHA merely obstructs our right to self governance.

What percentage of blood do you need to have to be part of this the SB1520 group? Even those with 1% of blood who have not lived in Hawaii for several generations has more standing than those who are living the culture & speak Hawaiian. <br /><br />We need to move beyond race in the 21st century while maintaining the uniqueness that is Hawaii i.e., the language, culture, and natural environment that make Hawaii what it truly is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
