KE AUPUNI UPDATE - FEBRUARY 2022
Time to Free Hawaiʻi...
Watching the insane invasion of Ukraine I cannot help but think about the United States’ unprovoked invasion of our country in 1893. Thanks to the wisdom and courage of Queen Liliuokalani, Hawaiʻi did not turn into a bloody battleground, but the American pirate enterprise that resulted has inflicted untold pain, suffering and deep loss to the Hawaiian nation for the past 129 years.
Today, most of the world is denouncing Russia’s violent attack against Ukraine; and rightly so. The defiant kū’e of Ukranian aloha ʻāina is truly inspiring. But back in 1893, despite our treaties of friendship and trade with the major powers of the world, not a single country rose to object to the United States’ aggression against Hawaiʻi or the 1898 “annexation”. That’s because many of those countries themselves were engaged in overseas conquest, subjugation and empire building.
The Russian attack on Ukraine could easily flash into a wider European conflict. It could also embolden China to attack Taiwan. If that happens, we in Hawaiʻi will be in extreme danger. U.S. military bases and assets in Hawaiʻi (particularly on Oahu) makes Hawaiʻi the most important strategic target for China (or Russia) to take out. And the attack on Hawaiʻi will not be by ‘conventional weapons’ as we have seen used ever since World War II. It would be thermo nuclear warheads, each one many times more powerful than Hiroshima, carried by unstoppable intercontinental, submarine launched or hypersonic missiles. It will be over in minutes and very few, if any of us, will survive.
The harm the U.S. military poses for Hawaiʻi far outweighs any ‘protection’ it offers. The continuing military build-up, the fuel contamination from Red Hill, the false alert of an incoming missile, the expansion of arms storage in Hawaii, make it abundantly clear that there are no measures in place to safeguard the people of Hawaiʻi.
We can no longer allow the U.S. to use Hawiʻi for it’s own selfish interests. The only way to protect ourselves and our future is to Free Hawaiʻi from the U.S. occupation, restore our independent, peaceful, neutral country and demilitarize our islands.
