AKAKA BILL DEVIOUS ATTEMPT TO AVOID TRUTH & JUSTICE
In 1993, the United States of America admitted in U.S. Public Law 103-150 that it had deprived the Native Hawaiian people of their right to self-determination and that the native people have never given up their right of "inherent sovereignty."
Understanding this, it is clear that the Akaka bill is not a fair or just solution.
International laws, treaties and conventions have been broken.
U.S. constitutional law and Hawaiian kingdom law have been broken.
Restitution and reparations are due.
The Akaka bill does not address these crimes at all.
There have been seven or eight versions of the bill, yet only one hearing on one island in Hawai'i before the Hawaiian people.
How can the Hawaiian people determine for themselves what they are really going to get or lose?
Why hasn't the process included open and in-depth discussion in the Hawaiian communities so that Hawaiians may have input?
This bill is purportedly about the building of a nation.
One hearing isn't fair or logical.
As it stands, the Akaka bill is simply a devious attempt to avoid the truth and justice.
