KE AUPUNI UPDATE - AUGUST 2024
Where Is the State of Hawaii?
Did you know that on August 15, 2024 the “State of Hawaii” will be “celebrating” the 65th anniversary of “Statehood”? Very few people in Hawaiʻi know this, and fewer still observe this holiday. It is definitely not like the celebration of Hawaiian Kingdom holidays like Lā Hoʻihoʻi Ea (July 31) and Lā Kuʻokoʻa (Novembe 28) with days-long public gatherings of thousands, in numerous locations all over Hawaii and in many places around the world.
The State of Hawaii’s birthday is hardly noticeable. Except for a few “Statehood Day Sales” by a few retailers, the event is barely mentioned — and definitely not celebrated. Why is that? Because, the State of Hawaii is embarrassed and nervous. As each year passes, and we keep pressing the issue, it is becoming more obvious that Hawaii is not really a state of the United States.
In its 1993 Apology, the United States confessed to its wrongful acts that set the stage for the fake annexation in 1898; which set the stage for the fake “statehood plebiscite” in 1959; and the illegal platform upon which the U.S. and the “State of Hawaii” currently operate.
One of the items on the 1959 Statehood Ballot was intended to be a description of the boundaries ot the new State of Hawaii. In essence, it says, the boundaries of the State of Hawaii shall be the boundaries of the Territory of Hawaii. What were the boundaries of the Territory of Hawaii? Presumably the boundaries of the Republic of Hawaii. And what were the boundaries of the Republic? Zip, nada, nothing, mea ʻole.
The Republic of Hawaii, being an illegal insurgency, acquired no territory from the Hawaiian Kingdom. In fact, the US Apology of 1993 states:
“Whereas 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:”
In essence, no political or governing authority or lands of the Hawaiian Kingdom were ever transferred to the United States. Not only is this factual, but the US makes this quite clear in its Apology of 1993.
Under international norms and laws, the lands and seas of the entire Hawaiian Archipelago remains intact and under the jurisdiction of the Hawaiian Kingdom, not the United States or its corporate construct, the State of Hawaii. Neither of them have the lawful right to be in the Hawaiian Islands.
The so-called State of Hawaii is an entity created by the US Congress, but unlike its sister states, it has no land (other than what it squats upon) and it has no lawful authority (other than what was stolen). The truth is out. The fraud cannot be sustained for much longer.
No wonder the State of Hawaii is reluctant to celebrate its anniversary. To do so would only call more attention to its illegal presence, and the abuses it has inflicted and continues to inflict upon the people and lands of Ko Hawaiʻi Pae ʻĀina.
So where is “The State of Hawaii”? It is not here in the Hawaiian Islands. It is a corporate/military team placed in Hawaii to manage the interests and agenda of the United States, and US corporations. And to financially and politically benefit its local collaborators.
The years of ku’e actions (and victories), challenges to the State’s authority and jurisdiction, public discourse, legal and academic research, cultural revival, petitions and appeals for justice, and other actions, have had a cumulative effect of exposing the fraud and building ka lāhui Hawaiʻi (the Hawaiian nation).
“Love of country is deep-seated in the breast of every Hawaiian, whatever his station.” — Queen Liliʻuokalani
