A Free Hawai`i would not be occupied by the US.
It is a sovereign state with dominion, the right to join the UN, and fly it's own flag.
On the other hand, under federal recognition and the Akaka bill, Hawai`i would technically become a "captured nation," meaning that international law could not prohibit US aggression and total extermination of its indigenous Hawaiian population.
Even worse, native recognition would be conditional only after extinguishing Hawaiian Kingdom Citizenship political status (your right to exist.)
The Akaka bill would not grant full autonomous self-rule and would in fact destroy Hawaiian Kingdom territorial integrity which continues to exist right now, even as you read these words.
Why reject the Akaka bill for a Free Hawai`i ?
Independence is formal recognition of Hawai`i's territory and laws. It's subjects are not under US jurisdiction.
The Akaka bill means forever giving up all that and agreeing to being part of the US as wards of the US federal government.
The Hawaiian Kingdom still exists, has its own bill of rights, constitution and comprehensive laws.
Only by the assertion of our dominion and a Free Hawai`i can we protect our beloved homeland with international support.
