WHAT EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT THE HAWAIIAN KINGDOM, A NEUTRAL, NON-VIOLENT, FRIENDLY NATION, AND OTHER PROBLEMATIC NATIONS: U.S., ENGLAND, ETC.

compiled by Amelia Kuulei Gora, a Royal person.(2010)

The “glue” that adheres all of us together are genealogies. We are based on a 2,650 – 3,000 year history of genealogies.

Our Hawaiian Kingdom/Kingdom of Hawaii/Hawaiian archipelago/He Mokupuni Pae Aina o Hawaii has been the target of many criminal deviants over time and the identity theft of our ancestors, along with the criminal dethroning of our Queen, criminally assuming assets, resources, occupation of our lands became the moves by the U.S. whose representative asked for loans and our House of Nobles said “no” to.

Now that many of our people are moving onto their ancestral lands, or pressing on with their beliefs, because most have oral histories of the wrongs, it is best (and wise) to gear up with information to better represent yourselves.

Have the following on hand, keep copies for yourselves and family members. If you can, also pass the important information on to those who haven’t a clue on what to do…..etc.

1. Genealogy research of your own families.

2. Know that if you’re a member of the Royal family(ies) – anyone descending from the King – Kamehameha then that means that you should be aware that governments, and the Masons/Freemasons were set in place to break apart Monarchy governments worldwide.

3. Print this article and the references below as evidence, etc.

IMPORTANT CHRONOLOGICAL EVENTS AFFECTING OUR HAWAIIAN ARCHIPELAGO AND THE WORLD TODAY:

The United States has been on the road to WAR since the criminal assumption, occupation of a neutral, non-violent nation known as the Hawaiian Kingdom/Hawaiian Islands/Hawaiian archipelago/Hawaii since 1893.

The following are the important dates in Hawaiian history which shows other nations interactions along with the belligerent occupiers the U.S., United States/United States of America, as well as an entity under the title: The Independence of the United States of America.

Congress debated over his title as “His High Mightiness.” A German ridiculed them and Congress decided to call him simply the President.

Thomas Paine, author of the Constitution pronounced him “Treacherous in private friendship and a hypocrite in public lifte.”

A Hawaiian stole a small boat, took it apart for weapons, and the ELEANORA set off killing many innocent people. More Hawaiians came from other areas to trade and Metcalfe commanded the sailors to open fire on the Hawaiians and killed many. This was called the “Olowalu Massacre.”

A boatswain, Englishman John Young decided to sightsee and was detained by Kamehameha. Metcalfe decided that John Young had abandoned his post and sailed on to his destination, Oregon to China.

ELEANORA’s sister ship the FAIR AMERICAN was attacked, five (5) killed and survivor Isaac Davis was held and became good friends with his future father-in-law John Young. Many of their descendants exist today.

The Secret Treaty of Verona was signed by Austria, France, Russia, Prussia, United States and the Vatican. Reference from the Congressional files uncovered by researcher Wolfram Graetz. The move towards One World Order/New World Order is indicated here:

Extract from the 1916 Congressional Record Senate

Senator Owen: I wish to put in the Record the secret treaty of Verona of November 22, 1822, showing what this ancient conflict is between the rule of the few and the rule of the many. I wish to call the attention of the Senate to this treaty because it is the threat of this treaty which was the basis of the Monroe doctrine. It throws a powerful white light upon the conflict between monarchical government and government by the people. The Holy Alliance under the influence of Metternich, the Premier of Austria, in 1822, issued this remarkable secret document:
AMERICAN DIPLOMATIC CODE, 1778-1884
The undersigned, specially authorized to make some additions to the treaty of the Holy Alliance, after having exchanged their respective credentials, have agreed as follows:
ARTICLE 1. The high contracting powers, being convinced that the system of representative government is equally as incompatible with the monarchical principles as the maxim of the sovereignty of the people with the divine right, engage mutually, in the most solemn manner, to use all that their efforts to put an end to the system of representative governments, in whatever county it may exist in Europe, and to prevent it being introduced in those countries where it is not yet known.
ARTICLE 2. As it can not be doubted that the liberty of the press is the most powerful means used by the pretended supporters of the rights of nations to the detriment of those of princes, the high contracting parties promise reciprocally to adopt all proper measures to suppress it, not only in their own States but also in the rest of Europe.
ARTICLE 3. Convinced that the principles of religion contribute most powerfully to keep nations in the state of passive obedience which they owe to their princes, the high contracting parties declare it to be their intention to sustain in their respective States those measures which clergy may adopt, with the aim of ameliorating their own interests, intimately connected with the preservation of the authority of the princes and the contracting powers join in offering their thanks to the Pope for what he has already done for them, and solicit his constant cooperation in their views of submitting the nations.
ARTICLE 4. The situation of Spain and Portugal unite unhappily all the circumstances to which this treaty has particular reference. The contracting parties, in confiding to France the care of putting an end to them, engaged to assist her in the matter which may the least compromit [sic] them with their own people and the people of France by means of a subsidy on the part of the two empires of 20,000,000 of francs every year from the date of the signature of this treaty to the end of the war.
ARTICLE 5. In order to establish in the Peninsula in the order of things which existed before the revolution of Cadiz, and to insure the entire execution of the articles of the present treaty, the high contracting parties give to each other the reciprocal assurance that as long as their views are not fulfilled, rejecting all other ideas of utility or other measure to be taken, they will address themselves with the shortest possible delay to all the authorities existing in their States and to all their agents in foreign countries, with the view to establish connections tending toward the accomplishment of the objects proposed by this treaty.
ARTICLE 6. This treaty shall be renewed with such changes as new circumstances may give occasion for, either at a new congress or at the court of one of the contracting parties, as soon as the war with Spain shall be terminated.
ARTICLE 7. The present treaty shall be ratified and the ratifications exchanged at Paris within the space of six months.

Made at Verona the 22nd November, 1822.
for Austria: METTERNICH
for France: CHATEAUBRIAND
for Prussia: BERNSTET
for Russia: NESSELRODE
Senator Owen: “This Holy Alliance, having put a Bourdon prince upon the throne of France by force, then used France to suppress the condition of Spain, immediately afterwards, and by this very treaty gave her a subsidy of 20,000,000 francs annually to enable her to wage war upon the people of Spain and prevent their exercise of any measure of the right of self-government. The Holy Alliance immediately did not same thing in Italy, by sending Austrian troops to Italy, where the people there attempted to exercise a like measure of liberal constitutional self-government; and it was not until the printing press, which the Holy Alliance so stoutly opposed, taught the people of Europe the value of liberty that finally one country after another seized a greater and greater right of self-government, until now it may be fairly said that nearly all the nations of Europe have a very large measure of self-government.
“However, I wish to call the attention of the Senate to this important history in the growth of constitutional popular self- government. The Holy Alliance made its powers felt by the wholesale drastic suppression of the press in Europe, by universal censorship, by killing free speech and all ideas of popular rights, and by the complete suppression of popular government. The Holy Alliance having destroyed popular government in Spain, and Italy, had well-laid plains also to destroy popular government in the American Colonies which had revolted from Spain and Portugal in Central and South America under the influence of the successful example of the United States.”
“It was because of this conspiracy against the American Republics by the European monarchies that the great English statesman, Canning, called the attention of our government to it, and our statesmen then, including Thomas Jefferson, who was still living at that time, took an active part to bring about the declaration by President Monroe in his next annual message to the Congress of the United States that the United States would regard it as an act of hostility to the government of the United States and an unfriendly act, if this coalition, or if any power of Europe ever undertook to establish upon the American continent any control of any American republic, or to acquire any territorial rights.
“This is the so-called Monroe Doctrine. The threat under the secret treaty of Verona to suppress popular government in the American republics is the basis of the Monroe Doctrine. This secret treaty sets fourth clearly the conflict between monarchial government and popular government, and the government of the few as against the government on the many.”
(Senator Owen, Congressional Record 1916)

***************************************
1824 – The Russian Imperial Navy ship PREDPIYATIE captained by Otto von Kotzebue arrived in Hawaii.

1825 – English frigate manned with forty-six-guns named BLONDE under Lord Byron brought the bodies of Kamehameha II and one of his seven(7) wives named Kamamalu back from England where they were exposed to measles. They had returned some of the remains of Captain Cook, and were on a peaceful mission to learn more about Monarchy governments.

Claims by England’s Lord Byron attending a Hawaiian council meeting was made. Lord Byron was claimed to have been under secret orders of England’s King George IV to declare Hawaii as its protectorate from foreign intervention.

Note: This is questionable since the Council of Alii/Chiefs were made up of the Secret Advisors of Kamehameha, their descendants.

Lord Byron with his crew on the BLONDE bid farewell and made a stop at Kealakekua Bay where Captain James Cook died and placed an engraced brass plate inscribed with the following:

“To the memory of Captain James Cook, R. N. who discovered these islands in the year of our Lord 1778. This
humble monument was erected by his fellow countrymen in the year of our Lord 1825.”

Note: Rather than that plaque, the following should replace it:

“In the defense of intruders upon the shores of 1,650+ years inhabited Hawaiian Islands; in the year 1778, here resulted a massacre of several hundreds of human life, Hawaiians/kanaka maoli, who had befriended England’s Captain James Cook and his foreign disease infested, immoral men who sought to kill our leaders, plunder, and to decimate our masses by multiples of diseases, carnal lust, slavery, greed, hatred, animosity and jealousy”.

1839 – The French frigate ARTEMISE with Captain LaPlace threatened to fire on Honolulu unless Catholic priests were allowed into the Kingdom and liquor imported. The King allowed them and revised the Missiona laws.

A Treaty was signed and $20,000 paid to Captain LaPlace.

1840 – England annexed Aetearoa or New Zealand.

Note: Aetearoa, Samoan Islands, and the Hawaiian Islands were part of a democratic Pacific Empire recognized among nations.

1841 – An ambitious policy of guaranteeing the security of Slavery in the United States and the “whole of this continent” was proclaimed by Secretary Calhoun.

1842 – Hawaii’s ambassadors Messrs. Haalilio and Richards left for the United States and Europe.

1852 – Napoleon III became the Emperor of France.

1854 – The United States signed a treaty with Japan. Commodore Perry successfully completed his secon expedition/mission, and opened Japan to Wester trade.

The U.S. President and associates seriously considered the formal annexation of the Hawaiian Islands according to the Native Hawaiian Study Commissions compilation, Volume II.

Note: This is one of lies conjured up by the Americans looking to assume our Hawaiian Islands.

Judge William L. Lee left for the United States according to the Probate 2410 (First Circuit Court) of Kamehameha III who died on December 15, 1854. Executors appointed were Mataio Kekuanaoa (true father of Kamehameha IV); John Young/Keoni Ana (uncle of Emma who became Queen Emma married to Kamehameha IV); and William L.

A settlement for the Treaty of Washington was made in the U.S.

1872 – In Geneva, Switzerland an arbitration between the U.S. and Great Britain occurred. The U.S. claimed that the British Government failed in allowing the Confederates (Civil War Southerners) to build and fit their ships/cruisers in the British ports contradicting their neutrality duties. The verdict awarded the U.S. $15,5000,000 in gold.

Note: The U.S. evolved into a predatory nation aggressively assuming Hawaiian private properties in 1893, which changed their status from one of neutrality to Warring, aggressive, criminal, terrorist, conspirators, deviants, etc. The planning, premeditation includes the following:

Admiral A.M. Pennock, Commander of the North Pacific Squadron, General John M. Schofield, Commander of the U.S. Army in the Pacific, and Brigadier General B. S. Alexander were on a mission steaming to Hawaii aboard the U.S.S. California under secret orders by the War Department. The plan was to visit Hawaii during the Holidays.

Pearl Harbor, Schofield Barracks, Fort Armstrong, and other military staging areas on Oahu and the neighbor islands were mapped and pinpointed during this survey.

Generals Sschofield and Alexander retured and reported on the value of Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. “Admirals Irwin, Walker and Miller, agreed that it would be tremendously useful” providing the sand bar entrance be eliminated.

1873 – John Schofield/General Schofield arrived in Honolulu and concluded that Pearl Harbor should be acquired for strategic use in defending the West Coast from overseas invaders.

1875 – The British purchased shares in the Suez Canal.

1876 – King David Kalakaua signed a fraud deed over Pearl Harbor. The deed was made out to two deceased ancestors 8-9 years after they died. Mataio Kekuanaoa died in 1868.

Rooke, mother of Hueu, Kale, and Peke Davis; claimed adopted mother of her niece Emma who married Kamehameha IV.

Note: The U.S. disclaimed any interest in Pearl Harbor according to Land Court application no. 966; however, the criminal entity Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates criminally claimed ownership and supported the fraud claim of the U.S. over Pearl Harbor.

1878 – The Pacific Cable Company was formed by Charles Reed Bishop, sugar planters, who helped to pay for the costs of laying a cable for the U.S. communications which would also be used to inform them that the Japanese were coming.

Note: The U.S. feared that the Japanese would enter San Francisco Bay, etc. and it would take more than 10 years to get them out. Read the book VALOR OF IGNORANCE by Homer Lea or see pages in Afffidavit/Lien No. 96-177455 filed on 12/17/96 (281 pages) by Amelia Gora, Bureau of Conveyances, Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii

1879 – Atlantic Cable Company employee Celso Moreno came to Hawaii and befriended King David Kalakaua. His project included the promotion of the California to China trans-Pacific cable.

The French laid the Atlantic Cable.

1882 – The French began the work on the Panama Canal.

1883 – Great Britain occupied Egypt.

1884 – The Trade Treaty was renewed with the U.S. The Pearl Harbor locale was allowed for the U.S. to use as a naval base. The Treaty was good for 10 years or due to expire in 1894.

Note: The U.S. disclaimed any interest in Pearl Harbor according to Land Court application no. 966; however, the criminal entity Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates criminally claimed ownership and supported the fraud claim of the U.S. over Pearl Harbor.

Germany annexed northeast New Guinea and Bismarck Archipelago.

1887 – With guns to his head, King David Kalakaua signed a new Constitution accommodating American conspirators, treasonous person in Hawaii. The Constitution was dubbed “The Bayonnet Constitution” by his sister Princess Liliuokalani (later became Queen Liliuokalani).

The Constitution was signed under duress and without the consent/ratification/approval by the Legislature.

A Joint French-English-American Naval Commission was established over the Samoan Islands.

Note: The Samoan Islands, Aetearoa, and the Hawaiian Islands formed the Pacific Empire which was held by treaties since the time of Kamehameha. Aetearoa was grabbed by England, (see previous entries).

1889 – Pacific Cable Company was formed with the following members:

W.G. Irwin; H.F. Glade; P.C. Jones; H.A. Widemann; James Campbell; Charles Reed Bishop; Samuel Northrup Castle; John T. Waterhouse and unnamed others.

1892 – A Concerted Move to dethrone Queen Liliuokalani progressed:

Lorrin A. Thurston, American, conspirator, treasonous person, offered to purchase the Hawaiian Islands for approximately $60,000.

A. U.S. agent through the Annexation Club offered Queen Liliuokalani $250,000 to purchase the Hawaiian Islands.

U.S. Secretary of the Navy, B..F. Tracy, met with Makua Valley rancher, Samuel Andrews, a nephew of Lorrin Thurston during the “preliminary contemplation ……of overthrowing the Monarchy” and talk about annexation after.

Hawaiian Kingdom employees in Washington, D.C. Dr. Mott-Smith and Thomas Akaka (ancestor of Daniel Akaka promoter of the Akaka Bill presently pushing criminal assumptions of all lands, assets, identity(ies) of all kanaka maoli) consulted, confided, planned the dethronement of Queen Liliuokalani and assume lands, assets, resources, etc. with communications from Sanford B. Dole, Lorrin Thurston, U.S. President Benjamin Harrison, Congress, et. als.

May 24. Cousin to Queen Liliuokalani Robert Wilcox, and Englishman Volney V. Ashford were arrested for Treason in Hawaii. “On the morning of the 21st…twenty persons charged with the crime of treason against the Hawaiian Government were arrested. Their object was the overthrow of the existing form of government by deposing Queen Liliuokalani and establishing a Hawaiian republic.”

Robert Wilcox did try to overthow King David Kalakaua, also a cousin, and “he and his associates were convicted on like charges, they were promptly pardoned”……….Wilcox “was elected to the Legislature.”

“The leaders of the movement are understood to be Voleny V. Ashford and Robert Wilcox, the well-known agitators.”
Read: THE NEW YORK TIMES, published June 1, 1892.”

“The penalty for treason is death; for conspiracy imprisonment, not to exceed ten years, and a fine of $1,000.”

Read also articles “The Hawaiian Conspirators”, THE NEW YORK TIMES, and “Trials for treason in Hawaii do not seem to be very fruitful in results…:, THE NEW YORK TIMES, Thursday, July 14, 1892.

Note: It appears that this and previous moves to dethrone cousins King David Kalakaua, and his sister Queen Liliuokalani by Robert Wilcox and 19 others shows trial runs, testing over what was to come……Robert Wilcox appears to have been supported by the U.S., and Volney Ashford supported by England, etc.

When the procession reached the new building, thanks to Mr. E. D. Thomas, the contractor of the edifice, everything was in readiness for the ceremony of laying the cornerstone.

During the ceremony, odes were sung by the choir of St. Andrew’s Catherdral, Mr. Wray Taylor accompanying on the organ. The instrumental music was furnished by the Hawaiian Band under the direction of Professor H. Berger.

The Ceremony

After a prayer byGrand Chaplain P.M. Rev. Alex. Mackintosh, an ode was sung by the choir, when the ceremony of laying the cornerstone was begun by W. M. Andrew Brown, on behalf of Hawaiian Lodge No. 21, F. and A.M., who invited Grand Master P.M. W. F. Allen to commence the ceremonies. The Grand Master responded as follows:

YOUR MAJESTY, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN AND BROTHER MASONS:

We are gathered here today by invitation of the Grand Lodge of California, F. & A.M. under authority given me as follows: “You will convene the Grand Lodge of California, F. & A.M., at Honolulu, H. I.. on the 27th day of December, 1892, for the purpose of laying the cornerstone of the new Masonic Temple at that place, performing said ceremony in my place and stead, accepting this as your authority and deputation from me, C. R. Gretman, Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of California.”; to witness and assist in the ceremony of laying the cornerstone of this building, which, when complete, will be the Hawaiian Masonic Temple.

Hawaiian Lodge No. 21, F. and A. M.. was chartered by the Grand Lodge in California on the 5th day of May, 1872 our sister Lodge Le Progress some years older, and the charter members were: Letanel Lyon, C. W. Vincent, Wm. Wond, Frederick W. Thompson, Andrew C. Mott, John Meek, David P. Penhallow, Jas. G. Saukins, Alexander J. Cartwright, Joseph Irwin, F.M. Stokes.

From that time our Lodge has prospered, and today we have one hundred and twenty-seven members, and are able to erect this Temple.

Masonry has always held a high position in Honolulu: sovereigns, governors, judges, clergymen, and those most respected in our community have and do belong to the order.

I do not say that all good citizens are Masons, but I do say that all good Masons are good citizens.

Brother Masons, now that we shall become more prominent, let me ask you to unite with our neighbors the Young Men’s Christian Association and the Honolulu Library and Reading Room Association in doing all we can by our good example, to promote good morals, and good citizenship in this our home city.

After the Band played a selection Grand Secretary P.M. John Phillips read the contents of the box which was afterwards deposited in the cavity of the lower stone. The box was made of sheet copper and was 14 l/2 inches long, by 9 inches wide by 7 inches high. The following is the official list of the contents:

After an ode was sung by the choir, the architect P.M. Clinton B. Ripley distributed the working tools among the Grand Officers, giving the trowel to Grand Master P.M. William F. Allen; the square tot eh Deputy Grand Master; the level to the Senior Grand Warden, P.M. Theodore F. Porter, and the plumb to the Junior Grand Warden, P.M. William M. Graham. These officers then descended from the platform to the stone and placed themselves around it according to the Masonic ritual.

After the cement had been spread on the lower stone, the Grand Master directed the upper stone to be lowered to its place which was done at three separate intervals and at each stoppage the brothers gave the grand honors.

When the stone was properly adjusted the Grand Master pointed the cement upon the edges of the stone and the usual ritual was proceeded with until the tools were returned to the architect, after which another ode was sung by the choir.

Grand Master Allen then introduced Hon. Paul Neumann, the orator of the day, who delivered the following eloquent oration:

The Oration.

MOST WORSHIPFUL GRAND MASTER, YOUR MAJESTY, BROTHER AND LADIES AND GENTLEMEN:

This is the era of terseness. We desire to waste no time and that which is to be said on any occasion must be said briefly, provided that brevity does not detract from the solemnity of the occasion or mar the purport (?) of the speech.

The paragraphs on the newspaper epitomizes the information which he gives us, that we may glean without waste of time what is necessary or interesting to know of the happenings of the day, and he is appreciated. The speaker of the day who says that which he is called upon to say without waste of words or time deserves also appreciation and praise.

Let me then, in accepting the honor of addressing this goodly assemblage, make up by the brevity of the discourse for other defects.

Not only to the members of the Hawaiian Lodge of Masons, but to our fellow citizens, this ceremony is of interest. With this ceremony is inaugurated further advancement of our town as well as a manifestation of the prosperity of our Order and our Lodge. On the 12th day of January, in the year of our Lord 1852, over forty years ago, an application was made to the Grand Lodge of Freemasons of California for a dispensation to open a lodge of Masons in Honolulu under the name of Hawaiian Lodge. A few months later, on the 5th day of May of that year, a regular charter was granted to that lodge giving it a lawful standing throughout the world.

The lodge then began its masonic work and while its meeting place improved in appearance from time to time, and while it could boast of the possession of its own house, many of the members deemed the accomodations insufficient. Hence arose the intention which we are not carrying out, of erecting a place where we find room not only for our masonic work, but also for social converse.

For more than forty years our lodge has been in existence, maintaining the rites and principles of the ancient craft without a taint upon the membership or work; without strife, without comity, without ill feeling, but in undisturbed harmony has this lodge done its work during all that length of time.

The records of this lodge are but part of the evidence of the good done by it and its situation upon the confines of the world of our European and American bretheren has given additional value and weight to all the charitable acts performed by this lodge and its individual members.

In former days when the communication between these Islands and Europe and America was scant and irregular, it must have been a great comfort for the stranger brother landing upon these shores to find a loge of brothers of the mystic tie to welcome him.

To find men with whom he could fraternize, and who in a measure lessened, under the shelter of the lodge, that sense of loneliness and dejection of spirit which is so often caused by the absence of relatives and friends. It is one of the boons which masonry grants, that wherever we go, even in the furthest regions of the world, where all whom we meet are strangers, there is usually some one found who is attached to us the by bonds of masonry; with whom we can find a home; whose presence gives us a feeling of security and lifts the weight of loneliness which would otherwise depress us.

We as Masons do not ask charity. There is no grinding obligation on the part of a brother mason to assist us by the diminishing his own means. Masons do not trade or speculate upon those obligations which we assume so freely and willingly.

Doubtless there are men who have joined our order for purely selfish ends. Doubtless there are men utterly worthless who have gained admission to our house, who have by their subsequent conduct laid bare their worldlessness to the masonic and to the outside world. It is a consoling fact that they are not many in number and it is as a consoling fact that they do not stay with us after they are found out.

Such mistakes as the admission of persons of that class are sometimes unavoidable. Let us be warned to exercise the utmost caution in the selection of those who seek admission, and let us hope that when we are installed in this new house no cowans will gain access to our family; that none but those who are found worthy and well qualified will be permitted to join us.

Before the institution of our lodge the Order was represented here by our sister lodge Le Progres de l’Oceanie, under the jurisdiction of the Grand Orient of France. If information is correct, this lodge was opened in 1842, ten years before the birthday of Hawaiian Lodge. In those days I am told, they had no lodge room on shore, and the earliest meetings of this venerable lodge were held on board of the ship of Captain Letellier, who was authorized to institute the lodge. From that time on many of our best appreciated fellow citizens because members of Le Progress. Some have joined the silent majority, a goodly number remain and sustain our ocean-born sister. We welcome them to-day in the true masonic spirit, to join with us in this important celebration and hope to see them share in whatever good may be the outcome of our present undertaking.

This day, my brethren, is a day of justifiable pride to us. On this, our masonic holiday, is laid the corner stone for the new temple of our lodge.

This budding which is to adorn our town by its outward beauty.

This building wherein the social and moral virtues inculcated by masonry are to be, and will be practiced and maintained.

This building, from whose portals will issue messages of fraternal love and deeds of charity, and assurances of good will toward all men.

To those of our guests who are not connected with the order, a few historic facts relating to our order may prove interesting. Our association of so called speculative masons is comparatively young in date, in so far as regards his direct influence upon civilization, education and sociality. It is known to have exercised such influence at the beginning of the 10th centry or about four hundred years ago.

Free masonry existed centuries before that time. It originated by the formation of a guild of builders and institution of lodges, among whose members were apprentices, fellows of the craft and masters. It had its rules of government, its instructions and its signs and passwords, just as we have now.

The grand architectural monument of the middle ages and of the time of the renaissance cathedrals, churches, palaces, bridges and other ornamental and useful structurs were built by the most skillful wormen. Those who followed the vocation of masons and attained masterships traveled from one place to many other places where their skill and services were needed and prized.

As a passport recommending them for possessing the requisite skill and stainless character, certain words and signs were imparted to them, by means of which they were sure of being accepted, though they came from foreign lands. These were the operative masons, and their art is called by us operative masonry in contradistinction from speculative masonry, to which we devote ourselves.

From the intermingling of operative masons with men, who though not of the craft, were imbued with the love and appreciation of the arts and sciences, and especially of architecture, our modern or speculative masonry took its rise. This latter art and science did not aid in the erection of beautiful edifices and structures, but set for its task to make man better and more perfect, and in him to raise an edifice worthy of acceptance by the Great Builder of the world.

In the same manner wherein the benefits mentioned were bestowed upon operative master masons, so in speculative masonry., those members who are sufficiently advanced in worth and knowledge receive tokens and signs by means of which they can make themselves known as masons at home and abroad.

Even in foreign parts and where they are unacquainted with the tongue of the land they can by those signs and words gain recognition and claim as a right the assistance and protection of the members of our order. You may think that a keen and shrewd observe could accidentally or surreptitiously obtain those signs and tokens which are simple indeed, but nothing is more difficult than for an imposter to continue his imposition for any length of time.

From this by no means lowly source then sprang this institution of Freemasons, and naturally it adopted for its symbols many of the tools of operative masons.

For instance the twenty-four inch gauge which is to teach us the proper division of the hours of the day allotting one-third to the service of God and charity, another third to our usual vocations and another third to refreshment and repose.

Again the plunder, a symbol to teach us to walk uprightly in the sight of God and man; the square to teach us to practice honestly in all our dealings; the level to remind us of the right of all mankind to equal consideration.

We have also our traditions. The outside world derides them as mythical and puerile, but we find in them sublime teaching; we find in them ethics far above any other except the gospel; we find in them thoughts above sublunary aspirations; we find in them a guide and inspiration to the noblest efforts of humaness.

If we believe those traditions feeling and knowing that their influence works good, why should the outside world object?

In every word, in every legend, in every charge and in every lecture in Masonry nothing is contained except that which makes man purer and better.

All our lore teems with admonitions to be charitable, to be just, to be honest, to be temperate, to be loyal, as men and as citizens.

Then if we choose to place the beginning of our institution as coeval with the beginning of the world, or with the time of the flood, or with the building of the temple at Jerusalem, or with any time, and accept that as an esoteric fact, whom does it concern?

It is only the purposes of Masonry which may concern the world at large.

What are those purposes? Essentially these: To command the practice of charity, not in it’s narrower, but in its broader application to improve the mind and to preserve the morale of the members.

To promote good fellowship and fraternal love among men who are not bound thereto by blood relationship.

To remove irritating differences created through diversity of nationality or religion. To having all our fellowmen, as far as possible, to a recognition of the brotherhood of mankind and of the necessity and propriety of goodwill among all men and nations. To enable us by precept and example to curb our passions, repress our selfish aims and learn to practice that consideration toward others which is a distinguishing mark of gentlemen.

These aims are noble and high enough to condone but the slight offence of pomp in our traditions, in our rites and it, our regalia. There is a seriousness and solemnity in our work which may well exclude the commonplace from our ceremonies.

The site upon which our temple is to stand is connected with some historic reminiscences of the town of Honolulu. Upon this land, where a few months ago, the cow of our good friend Dr. McGrew was want to chew the solitary cud and where now the busy noise of the builders resounds, stood in olden times a Temple of Thespis devoted to the drama and to music.

In that house many of the masterpieces of the poets were presented for the instruction of the art-loving citizens of Honolulu; in it were heard beautiful straits of music, ad delightful songs of some of the great artists of the day.

In that house were evoked touching memories of homes and of loved ones far away from this ultima thule of Western civilization.

What more appropriate site for our Masonic temple could have been chosen? As fellowcrafts we were bidden to cultivate the seven liberal arts, among them grammar, rhetoric and music. And is there not, moreover, in the Master’s degree a drama? A drama most closely and intimately connected with the traditions our our order.

A tragedy of deepest pathos which calls forth the heartfelt pity in the breast of the initiate, but which bears with it a solemn lesson of resurrection and immortality.

A drama whereof the moral is that man may perish, but that his spiritual part and his virtues, that fidelity, truth and love remain imperishable.

Our ancient and honorable order has had the reproach laid at its door that it indulges in useless and childish mysticism. Who that understands the deeper import of our legends and the beautiful and comforting lessons which we gain from the, will echo the accusation?

Has not the Saviour spoken in parables? Are the poems of the inspired writers without merit and of less value than because the noble thoughts in them appear in attractive disguise?

There may be myths and fictions in our ritual, but they detract nothing from the noble aims and aspirations of our institution. Our Order has been accused of fomenting discontent, undermining religious faith and creating dangers for States and Churches. How far from the truth is this. One of our earliest instructions enjoins obedience to the law, loyalty to the country, forbearance with those who differ from us in creed.

Henry of Beaufort, the Cardinal of Winchester, suceeded in suppressing the meetings and conventions of Masons daring the minority of Henry the VI, of England. After the King attained his majority he not only caused this order to be repeated, but became a member and a patron of the Freemasons, and his successor, Henry the VII, was one of the Grand Masters of the Order.

In 1799, when secret political societies mainly of anarchists, sprung up like mushrooms, a prohibitory law against secret societies was enacted by Parliament, but the Masonic Order was honorably excepted from its provisions, showing pretty clearly that our Order has not favored sedition or lawlessness.

The fact that Masonic tenets discountenance bigotry and intolerance has created prejudice against masonry in the minds of bigots and fanatics, and those who weakly follow them. Our Order has been accused of exerting deleterious influence upon us in our public relations and functions.

Those who are of us know how groundless those charges are. They know that we are taught to fulfill our duties with unswerving rectitude and impartiality, but always with charity toward the weak and erring. We do not countenance oppression, or cruelty, or crime, or vice in our Order, but in the exercise of that virtue which is the foundation and reason for the existence of Masonry in the exercise of charity, we try to save, to redeem, to console, to encourage the erring brother, without, however, interfering with human justice.

This is not a defense against cavilers. In the consciousness of the probity of our aims and deeds, our Order needs no defense. The binding force which unites us as though we were brothers by blood and affinity, is charity, the ever recurring lesson in our Masonic life is to restrain our passions and that to curb that strongest of our impulses—our selfishness. We have been accused of exclusiveness. As in natural relationship, we usually give greater scope to affection and considerateness to our relatives, so it is true that in our Masonic relations we are more strongly inclined to those who are accepted in our brotherhood, than to those who are not bound to us.

The reason of this is not only that we expect and know ourselves to be entitled to reciprocal consideration, but because we are assured that those whom we aid, comfort and sustain are generally worthy of it.

Mistakes may occur. All human schemes and contrivances are imperfect. Perfection by the grace of the Grand Master of the Universe we may, and hope to attain hereafter—not in this life. But as a system to join in universal brotherhood all free, educated, virtuous and unselfish men regardless of religion, regardless of nationality, regardless of station, regardless of wealth—none other has ever approached Freemasonry in promise or for hope of fruition.

No other attempt has ever been made by the civilized part of the human race to smooth the approach of man to man in fraternal affection and loving forbearance, and to carry our Christ’s commands of love for our fellow man.

The tender solicitude of Masons for unfortunate and sick brothers, and for the widows and orphans of departed members of the order; the ready and gracious help and consideration which they accord to brother Masons who are strangers; the patient forbearance which they show to weak and erring brothers who are not past redemption; the courteous deference to those who are of different creeds, political opinions, or nationality, all these are the result of Masonic teaching.

Nor do we confine our charitable acts to our own Masonic family exclusively. Whenever and wherever the cry of distress proclaimed a public calamity, the Masons were in the van with others in procuring and carrying relief to the stricken communities.

Whenever and wherever institutions for the advancement of education or the relief of the sick were created by public contribution, the Masons stood side by side with other generous men in promoting the work.

If such is the effect of Masonic lessons, we can well overlook the scoffs at our claims for antiquity, at our peculiarities of ritual and language, and at our harmless pomp.

Upon the heaven implanted foundation of charity our house is built. Not alone that charity which is prompted by the sight of suffering and misery, not alone that charity which is evoked because we feel that fate has dealt more kindly with us than with those whose misfortune appeals to our generosity, but that higher charity which in the words of the gospel covereth a multitude of sins.

That charity which leaves pride behind, and making as conscious of our own transgressions, induces us in an humble spirit to crave forgiveness for our own failures, whilst we hold out a helping hand to those who are weaker and more needful of help than ourselves.

That charity which raise up to the level of the angels, and appeals to the all-merciful Creator to take into account our good intent, and not to score against as our short-comings.

Then let this house when built become the abode of harmony and virtue, and in its halls and everywhere let sweet charity continue to move us to good and acceptable deeds, that our course as men and Masons may gain approval above and appreciation here.

After the oration the hymn “Old Hundred” was sung by the choir, the audience joining in the singing. The ceremonies were terminated with a benediction by the Grand Chaplain.

THE NEW TEMPLE.

Description of the Building Now Being Erected.

Appended wil be found a brief description of the new Masonic Temple now in course of erection at the corner of Alakea and Hotel streets. Mr. C.B. Ripley is the architect.

In the erection of a new Masonic Temple the problem given by the Building Committee to their architect to solve was to design a building which should have an exterior suggestive of the character of the building, pleasing in its outlines, inexpensive in detail, and with interior arrangements fully up to all the requirements of the Craft. Lava rock was selected as the material for the construction of the building, because it possessed a beauty and richness in itself that no elaborate ornamentation in other material could give, and thus the exterior is almost wholly devoid of ornamentation, the details being simple but effective, the general design being an adaptation of the recent use of the Renaissance style of architecture, so far as it could be made available, the strictest economy in expenditure being required in everything except that which appertained to the solidity and durability of the structure.

The first floor contains five suites of offices, each suite having two large well lighted and well ventilated rooms connected by sliding doors. Each suite of rooms having front and rear entrances and having stationary wash-basins and electric lights. There is a broad veranda in front protecting these rooms from the glare of the sun, and making them most desirable for doctors, dentists, or even for private apartments. And at any time in the future when there is a demand for stores in this locality the partitions dividing the rooms of each suite can be removed and stores second to none in Honolulu are available.

The second floor is to be used entirely for Masonic purposes. The entrance is through two large arches in the tower at the corner of the building into a vestibule with tiled floor up broad stairs, and landing in an entrance hall on the seconf floor. From this hall access is had to the Tyler’s room 18X30 feet with a ceiling 20 feet high and galleries on two sides. From the Tyler’s room double doors admit to the Lodge room 32X54 feet, the ceiling being 20 feet high at the sides and 25 feet high in the center. This room isthoroughly ventilated and in the warmest nights will be found delightfully cool and pleasant; it has large windows on three sides arranged to open at any joint desired, giving fresh air without draughts, and with the system of ventilation used in the ceiling and apex of roof above, this room will be a model lodge room. Connected with the Tyler’s room and by separate entrance with the lodge room are the ante-rooms containing all the conveniences required by any of the Masonic bodies. Beyond the Tyler’s room and connected with the same by sliding doors, 14 ft. wide, is the banquet hall, 20X30 ft., with a reading room, 13X13 ft., adjoining , both well lighted and ventilated. Special care has been given to the arrangement of that part of this “Masonic Home,” in which the members spend the hours while “called from labor to refreshment.” From these rooms exit is had to the hall and stairway, also the lavatory, which contains every convenience that the best modern plumbing furnishes. Rooms for the storage of the paraphernalia used by the different Masonic bodies are arranged on the third floor, which occupies a portion of the building. Every window is to be supplied with patent sliding blinds, the entire building to be lighted with electric lights.

This Masonic Temple is being built for the future as well as for the present. The materials for its construction are the best and most durable; the workmanship called for is to be first-class, and the architect is employed to give every detail the most careful supervision, so that nothing may be left undone which shall add to the strength and beauty of the structure; and that the work of Hawaiian Lodge in “operative masonry” may be as successful as it has been in “speculative masonry” must be the wish of every citizen of Honolulu.

Researcher Important Discovery which CHANGES HISTORY!

PEARL HARBOR CONTROL WAS DIRECTED BY WASHINGTON SIX (6) DAYS BEFORE THE CRIMINAL DETHRONEMENT OF HAWAIIʻS QUEEN LILIUOKALANI IN 1893!

Researcher – Shane Lee, a Royal person
reviewed by Amelia Kuulei Gora, a Royal person

This important article may be found at THE NEW YORK TIMES, Published: January 9, 1893 was discovered by researcher Shane Lee a few days ago.

It appears that Washington utilized the “wire” to relay messages to “the framers of the new treaty (with the Hawaiian Kingdom)”…..and were instructed to “avoid all mention of troops. All that is necessary is the continuance of the exclusive right to enter Pearl Harbor and establish and maintain there a naval station”.

So, let us look at the facts CHRONOLOGICALLY:

1893

January 9, 1893 – New York publication THE NEW YORK TIMES relays the information to the “framers of the new treaty” via posted information .

note(s): Directions, commands were given from Washington via the news publications, the media.

Researchers should review previous newspapers, publications, etc. of major events occurring/surrounding the time period.

January 15, 1893 -Sunday- Queen Liliuokalani discarded the Bayonnet Constitution.

January 15, 1893 -Sunday – Prayers and speechʻs made; unlawful public gathering with the intentions to pursue treasonous and terrorist activities.

note(s): Refer to the article about Lynching – see back issues of the IOLANI – The Royal Hawk/ book – Shadows In the Light by Amelia Kuulei Gora at http://www.lulu.com – regarding Church meetings prior to the intended crimes.

Briefly, the Whites attended Church, prayed, then moved to LYNCH blacks /People of Color in the South. In other words, they prayed before they moved in to physically, emotionally, spiritually, etc. KILL.

January 16, 1893 – Monday – 1,300 citizens gathered endorsing the Committee of Safety; illegal public gathering, inciting riot; public violence; public display of offensive and treasonous activities occured; terrorists backed by a country under a treaty, a convention that was due to end in 1894…..the treaty which was written about in January 9, 1893.

Monday evening – Terrorists infiltrated their planned areas.

January 17, 1893 – Tuesday – Terrorists/Provisional government leaders or the “framers of the new treaty” moved to establish themselves at the Government House, the Palace surrendered, Station House surrendered; Terrorists raised themselves to Power; Surrender of the Palace made to maintain peace contrary to violence as a tradeoff; surrender of station house made to maintain peace contrary to violence as a tradeoff.

Queen Liliuokalani “temporarily” yielder her authority to the United States Government, to its President, as a fact Finder, and NT to the terrorist entity Provisional Government and to avoid bloodshed.

Observations:

The concerted effort to occupy Hawaii was a longtime planned movement which included conspirators/terrorists/mercenaries/treasonous persons operating under the directions/ in sync with instructions from Washington via the support of the media as it continues today.

Washington is up shit creek, in deep kimchee because all research shows the devious activities of a bankrupt nation moving to assume the valuables of others through the concerted use of their contacts/mercenaries, the military “troops”, and the controlled media.

It is truly Diabolical, or beyond evil……………..Americans…..take back your government and make corrections NOW!

aloha.

January 9, 1893, Wednesday

Page 9, 1176 words

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. — The United States, through the inactivity of the Navy Department and the indifference of the State Department, is likely to lose the only coaling station of which it stands in real need. Nothing has been done since 1884, when the Pearl Harbor site in the Hawaiian Islands became available, beyond a number of surveys which have abundantly demonstrated the excellence of this harbor as a site for a naval station.

REVIEWING THE U.S. PRESIDENTS
PARTICULARLY THOSE AFFECTING THE Kingdom of Hawaii/The Hawaiian Kingdom/ The Hawaiian Archipelago/ The Hawaiian Islands

Review by Amelia Kuulei Gora, a Sovereign Heir/Royal person – one of the descendants of Kamehameha, Queen Liliuokalani, Princess Poomaikelani, etals. (2007)

The following is a list of the U.S. Presidents, with a focus on the Mason/ Freemason Presidents which affected Hawaii’s Royal families, Kamehameha’s descendants, including the wrongful/criminal dethronement of Hawaii’s Queen Liliuokalani, her families, her subjects in Hawaii since the American Civil War because the U.S. was bankrupt and moved to assume funds, assets, lands, resources, etc. along with England/Great Britain, France, etals.

The criminal deviance affects Hawaii, along with the World today.

Conclusion:
The U.S./America/AmeriKKKa continues to affect the World today through the associations, affiliations of the U.S. Presidents through overt and covert operations. Aggression through WARS as well as subtle moves of ‘friendly’ maneuvers such as the moves of Al Gore who moves in other directions (World Woodstock project) with the ultimate goal of enslaving the masses under the One World Order/New World Order scheme.

you’re absolutely right!

Amelia,

I can’t agree with you more. First Afghanistan, now Iraq, next? God knows better!

I, as a Pakistani, believe our turn is right around the corner somewhere. If the US government and foreign policy go unchecked, and the media continues to play its present role, then surely, the world will be an absolutely horrifying global village.

9. IRAN

10. SOUTH AFRICA

and not necessarily in that order! Just to verify some of the above:

‘Learn from Iraq’

Top Stories – Reuters

By Philip Pullella

ROME (Reuters) – The United States on Wednesday warned countries it has accused of pursuing weapons of mass destruction, including Iran, Syria and North Korea (news – web sites), to “draw the appropriate lesson from Iraq (news – web sites).”

1) Failure in telling Americans about the true relationship with England/U.S. is but a “colony of the Crown (of England)”

Reference: CBS Channel 9 news, 5:45PM, 10/30/05 Sunday

Announcing Prince Charles and his wife would visit the U.S.,

“a colony of the Crown (of England)”;

This article covers part of checking up on the U.S., whose Southern (Confederate) Presidents have been actively destroying the Constitution without the understanding of most Americans.

The most recent U.S. Presidents who have had a hand in the ongoing destruction of the U.S. Constitution are:

President Lyndon Baines Johnson (Texas – Confederate State)

President Richard Nixon (Texas – Confederate State)

President Ronald Reagan (Texas – Confederate State)

President James Earl Carter (Georgia – Confederate State)

President George Bush (Texas – Confederate State)

President William Clinton (Arkansas – Confederate State)

President George W. Bush (Texas – Confederate State)

See John Nelson, legal researcher’s article at http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/GORA8037 for the U.S. President’s role in destroying the U.S. Constitution, etc.

By impeaching the U.S. President, not only can the rights afforded by the U.S. Constitution be maintained, but it will also be a credible sign to other nations that Americans are NOT about WAR, the wrongful Pl under Ing Upon Inn *o* CENTS.

The removal/withdrawal of the American military from the Middle East/other nations will help to keep in check:

1) the Foreign Policies;

2) the Media (mostly Jewish run) who promotes WAR for GREED/money, resources, etc.;

3) and would impede the progress of the World being dominated by the ‘UPPER CLASS’/a few seeking control of a slave world society/ New World Order/ One World Order.

4) Question the United Nations and the President’s need to connect with other nations.

5) Question the United Nations and the CFR /Council on Foreign Relations made up of U.S., England, and the bankers.

6) Question the basis of Allen Dulles, former CIA/Central Intelligence Agency’s former chief who prepared a report recommending the following:

“….a world government, strong immediate limitation on national sovereignty, international control of all armies and navies, a universal system of money, world-wide freedom of immigration, progressive elimination of all tariff and quota restrictions on world trade and a democratically-controlled world bank.” – Allen Dulles 1942

“The report also called for world-wide redistribution of wealth. It held that a “new order of economic life is both imminent and imperative.” “It accepted Marxian concepts by denouncing various defects in the profit system as being responsible for breeding war, demagogues, and dictators.”

7) Take a step back and watch the U.S. and Russia’s possible merger into a world government:

Dulles in 1946 said:

“Moreover, Communism as an economic program for social reconstruction has points of contact with the social message of Christianity as in its avowed concern for the underprivileged and its insistence on racial equality…neither state socialism nor free enterprise provides a perfect economic system; each can learn from the experience of the other…the free enterprise system has yet to prove it can assure steady production and employment…Soviet socialism has changed mch particularly in placing greater dependence upon the incentive of personal gain.”

Do note that in the “first 25 years of Communist control of Russia” the “mass murder of 20-million human beings” occurred.

“15-million persons” were in Soviet Slave Labor camps in 1946;

From 1946 – 1963, the communists “exterminated another 40-million people in Russia, China, Hungary, Cuba, Poland, Tibet and Korea.”

Note and Comments:

Being that the treasonous activities, Communist affiliations of the Presidents, including the building of the United Nations, does this mean that the recent count of 655,000 Iraqi’s who were killed adds to the additional count of Communist mass murders?

The United Nations is communist based, headed by England, the WAR arm U.S., and funded by the international bankers.

The U.S. Constitution has been TAMPERED WITH by U.S. Presidents of a slave state background/Confederate States with less than a full recognition as the other States. See John Nelson’s article at http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/GORA8037 and other issues of IOLANI – The Royal Hawk for U.S. President’s backgrounds, etc.

As a reminder: Russia, the U.S., England were part of the 1822 Secret Treaty of Verona along with Austria, France, Prussia and assistance from the Vatican. See Wolfram Graetz, researcher’s finds in the U.S. Congress records in IOLANI – The Royal Hawk issues or go to his website:

8. Royal families exist documenting excessive frauds, criminal deviance, Pirates of the Pacific and Friends.

9. Royal families, excluding the clowns(not Crown’s) – Kawananakoa’s, have filed liens/notices/affidavits (1996, 2005, 2007, etc.) for the world to see.

9. Royal families, excluding the clowns(not Crown’s) – Kawananakoa’s, document the truth and defend out kanaka maoli and others for their ancestral land claims, health, safety, and maintain peaceful, neutral status while recognizing the permanent treaties with other nations affecting Royal persons, descendants of Kamehameha, etals. today.

General – IOLANI PALACE has Owners notify me whenever anyone posts in this discussionSubscribe

From: hwnwahine Aug-19 9:02 pm
To: ALL (1 of 1)
2.1

Welcome to Iolani Palace Iolani Palace
A Hawaiian national treasure has owners. Descendants of the Alii exist. Criminal entity State of Hawaii (headed by penis nosed Jew Linda Lingle) moves to charge Hawaiian activist groups for entering OUR families properties.
The Iolani Palace was the official residence of the Hawaiian Kingdom’s last two monarchs–King Kalakaua, who built the Palace in 1882, and his sister and successor, Queen Lili`uokalani.
Princess Poomaikelani, and others lived there during the monarchy period, the Palace was the center of social and political activity in the Kingdom of Hawai`i.

Though its grandeur was neglected after the premeditated plan to dethrone the Queen/ monarchy, assume the lands, assets, resources, etc., Queen Liliuokalani continued to press on with her claims, including the fact that the U.S. breached the law of nations, etc.

Theft, removal of rugs, furniture, artifacts, paintings, silverware, plates, etc. was made and auctioned off to PIRATES OF THE PACIFIC: Charles Reed Bishop and friends, also known as treasonous persons, conspirators, TERRORISTS against Queen Liliuokalani, the Royal families, and people/subjects of the Kingdom of Hawaii/Hawaiian Kingdom/Hawaiian archipelago, aka’s.

Restoration began in the 1970s through efforts of concerned individuals. The thieves slowly returned the artifacts as well. Restoration and preservation continues, and, as a result, today’s visitors, view the Palace without legal or granted jurisdiction to the premises.

The IOLANI PALACE has documented owners who are NOT related to the entity State of Hawaii, U.S. – a nation who breached the law of Nations and premeditated the move against our Queen and people in 1893, etc.

Reference: See Affidavit/Liens at the Bureau of Conveyances, Honolulu, Oahu, http://www.theiolani.blogspot.com and many news articles about Hawaii at http://www.newyorktimes.com archives regarding the Pearl Harbor treaty, etc.

To date, the following activists and their followers have been wrongfully charged, imprisoned, harrassed:

Bumpy Kanahele

Mahealani Asing

Akahi Nui

P.S. The entity State of Hawaii has no jurisdiction in Hawaii. Criminal activities continue against our kanaka maoli.

aloha.
******************************************
Summary:

Kamehameha’s, King Kalakaua’s, Queen Liliuokalani’s, Princess Poomaikelani’s, etals. descendants exist. The Royal families exist, those who did not participate in the wrongful dethronement of our Queen Liliuokalani.

The crimes uncovered in genealogies will be exposed thoroughly in other writings, or read the articles, pamphlets, 25+ books or the IOLANI – The Royal Hawk, news on the web with 297 issues to date.

The entity State of Hawaii has no jurisdiction in the Hawaiian archipelago. They are belligerent occupiers with evidence of premeditation moves against our people, criminal deviance, criminal assumption, inappropriate use of justice, piracy(ies) on the high seas, etc.

The purpose of this particular writings with references/exhibits are to support all who oppose wrongdoings in our Hawaiian Islands and all affected by the same Warring Nations documented as terrorists, genocide activists in our Hawaiian Kingdom.

Wrongdoings include bullying behavior in, around, under, over a neutral non-violent nation that has Royal families existing, the true owners of pirated lands, resources, mineral rights, water rights, ahupuaa konohiki rights, etc. by non bloods, non kanaka maoli.

Do occupiers have the right to prosecute our kanaka maoli to the full extent of the law? whose law(s)….Pirates laws!?

Who are the legal owners of the Iolani Palace/ the Palace….the citizens of the occupiers? then move the Palace people because the land that it’s sitting on has owners who happen to be the Royal families in Hawaii…. the descendants of Kamehameha, Mataio Kekuanaoa, John Young, and heirs of Charles Kanaina, etals…..whose ancestors did not participate in the criminal moves of an entity currently occupying the rightful government of our Hawaiian archipelago, etc.

These writings are purposeful, to be used for maintaining land, water rights, resources, by kanaka maoli who believe in truth, continue to support their ancestors oppositions against the belligerent, documented occupiers who have criminally violated all rights, legal rights of a neutral, non-violent, friendly nation called the Hawaiian Kingdom/Hawaiian Islands/Hawaiian archipelago, including the true property owners, descendants of the Royal Families.

These documents are also to be used to oppose depleted uranium/DU, GMO/Genetic Modifications, etc. in Hawaii by a belligerent, criminal occupier who progressively moved against our Queen, our Royal families, all kanaka maoli who were not treasonous to the Hawaiian Kingdom.

The true owners exist and deny all, and any toxins, poisons, radiation, Depleted Uranium, GMO’s, etc. on our private properties.

These writings and documents are also to be used in opposing the entity State of Hawaii, the U.S. Federal government, and their military, City and Counties all foreign Warring occupiers who fail to protect even their own citizens over their “health and safety”, etc. with educating the masses the truth, the problematic issues, and why the Akaka Bill, etc. must forever be opposed.

The statements are mines as a Royal person, a 30+ year history researcher, 22+ genealogy researcher, and 15+ years legal researcher.

aloha,

Amelia Gora, a Royal person, Acting Liaison of Foreign Affairs, Royal Families House of Nobles, and One of the Representative of the Hawaiian Genealogy Society, Hawaiian Kingdom, one of the true trustees of Queen Liliuokalani Trust/Liliuokalani Trust, Queen Emma Trust, descendant of Kalola (w), Kaaumoana (w), Akahi (w), et. als. heirs of Bernice Pauahi/Bernice Pauahi Bishop/Pauahi (w).

A BRIEF CONDENSED HISTORY OF OUR HAWAIIAN/KANAKA MAOLI

PEOPLE by Amelia Kuulei Gora (2001) One of Kamehameha’s descendants, a Royal Person not subject to the law(s) The following was written with the purpose of showing the early contact period, the Pre-Monarchy Period through the Monarchy Period up till Kamehameha V. (Other Periods have been discussed and has been presented on various boards on this and other other forums as well.)

Number 1.

Utilization of Aged Documents for Land, Money, Water, etc. Ongoing Since 1863 Disregarding the True Heirs

KOHALA SUGAR, the predecessors of Hamakua Mill/Hamakua Sugar was started by the missionaries utilizing documents of association signed by Minister of Interior, Lot Kamehameha, in 1863.

Kamehameha IV – Alexander Liholiho was still in command at the time.

Number 2.

PILGRIMS DESCENDANTS IN OUR MIDST

The Protestant Missionaries, the KOHALA SUGAR and other eventual plantations operating under the documents of 1863, were descendants of the English Pilgrims who had historically created a climate of hate, animosity, greed towards the indigenous peoples, the Indians.

B A C K G R O U N D

The English Pilgrims and 50 years later, Captain James Cook left the location called Plymouth, England. The English Pilgrims landing in the Americas, named their already inhabited site Plymouth, Massachussetts.

A statement made by a well-known Protestant minister sets the climate of the times:

“The woods were cleared of those pernicious creatures (Indians) to make room for a better growth.”
Two well known ministers, Increase and Cotton Mather (father and son), wrote more than 450+ books. They were descendants of Richard Mather a minister suspended from the Church of England’s ministry and moved to Massachussetts where he created conflicts in the church.

**** A Look at the Wampaog Indians – King Phillip’s War ****

The Wampaog tribe was nearly wiped out, many prisoners were taken into slavery.
King Phillip, the high chief was decapitated, his head was placed on a stick in the Massachussetts town square, on display till as late as 1700.

**** A Look at the Witchhunts of Massachussetts ****
The following books witten by the influential Protestant ministers moved the masses of people to witch hunts, hangings, killings, cruelty and punishment to many innocent people. These books were: ESSAY FOR THE RECORDING OF ILLUSTRIOUS PROVIDENCES; CASES OF CONSCIENCE CONCERNING EVIL SPIRITS AND OTHERS. These books led the people to believe that WITCHES WERE IN THE LEAGUE OF SATAN. **** The Printing Presses of the Early Missionaries or Pilgrim Descendants **** With the proud missionaries and their printing presses, it afforded news of all kinds to be dispersed to all “learned men or cultured peoples” including Plymouth, England, the former homes of the Pilgrims who had formed a Pact/Mayflower Compact, forming a new kind of government, a government in the already inhabited America’s. RETALIATION AFTER CAPTAIN JAMES COOK’S DEATH Captain James Cook GRABBED kapu alii/chief Kalniopuu by the shoulder. Cook failed to respect the cultural norms of the Hawaiian Society and was killed. No one was allowed to touch the kapu alii/chief and suffered the consequences, along with his men on shore. After Captain James Cook and four of his men were slain, the English retaliated similar to the works of the English Pilgrim/missionaries on the Indians. In Captain Cook’s men’s diaries/journals, they constantly referred to the kanaka maoli as “Indians”. (Notice the Protestant pilgrims influence.) Three of our kanaka maoli alii/chief’s were decapitated, their heads were hung on the bows of the ship for all to see. Hundreds of kanaka maoli were shot, many in their backs, fire was set to their homes. (Notice the Protestant pilgrims influence – see the previous entries of the Wampaog Indians and the slain Indians leader King Phillip.) Thousands of kanaka maoli were killed, due to the disease infested men from Captain Cook’s ships. They had frequented many island shores, such as TAHITI, COOK ISLANDS and others leaving disease trails behind them. The doctor knew that 66 were afflicted. The men knew they were afflicted/infected and yet blamed the kanaka maoli for being the cause of the later outbreaks. The Protestant Missionaries in later years, accused the kanaka maoli as being the cause. What about the depraved English sailors aching for sexual, bodily pleasures, which ultimately produced another human? Were whites exempt from the carnal evils preached by whites and caused by only people of color? Meanwhile, thousands, hundreds of thousands of unborn kanaka maoli babies, women and men died. Number 3. CATHOLICS IN HAWAII Kamehameha friend/consultant was name Paul Marin, or Paulo Manini, a Spaniard who baptized more than 300 chiefs into the Catholic religion. Kamehameha (k) instructed his alii/chiefs to set aside the kapu system because he was a makaula/a seer and prophesied the dangers if the Hawaiian religion were continued. He died on May 18, 1819. Kaahumanu (w), one of his wives, became the Kuhina Nui. Her Cousin Kalanimoku (k) became the assistant and kahu of Kamehameha’s son through another wife Keopuolani (w), Kamehameha , Liholiho. Note: The setting aside of the kapu system left the Hawaiian Society in a fragile condition, a period of Anomie – social norms absent. This was the perfect period for social change, a time for Opportunists to sell their bibles, preach their bibles, etc. The main concern of Kamehameha was the ceasing of the ancient Kapu system with “barbaric” rituals which could have been the cause of the demise of the whole of the kanaka maoli society. Kamehameha was a makaula, a seer, who operated partly with spiritual confidence aside from his physical confidence. Due to the affects of the Papal Bull issues by the Pope in 1493 and the thrust towards all world civilizations with the claims of delineating the uncivilized vs. the civilized peoples, with intentions of destroying, plundering, and assuming lands, resources, etc. belonging to those suspected as being barbaric, etc., the rationale of our ancestor Kamehameha can be seen. The Papal Bull was recently set aside after ongoing protests by aboriginal peoples which included kanaka maoli and American Indians. Kalanimoku’s (k) mother had been baptized a Catholic and had requested for her family to follow. Kalanimoku (k) whose wives included Akahi (w), my ancestor, and his brother Boki (k) were baptized Catholics aboard the French ship L’URANIE. Kamehameha II – Liholiho (k) wanted to be baptized also but chose not to because of stepmother Kaahumanu (w) the appointed Kuhina Nui’s temperament. Number 4. PROTESTANTS/PILGRIMS DESCENDANTS INFLUENCE The First (1st) Company of American Protestant Missionaries sponsored by the American Board of Foreign Missions (ABFM) arrived in Hawaii on the THADDEUS at Kailua, Hawaii. The American missionaries introduced the concept of Western marriages. Their names are as follows: Rev. Hiram Bingham and wife Sybil Mosely Daniel Chamaberlain and wife Jerusha Thomas Holman, M>D> and wife, Lucy Ruggles Elisha Loomis and wife, Maria Theresa Sartwell Samuel Ruggles and wife, Nancy Wells Rev. Asa Thurston and wife, Lucy Goodale Rev. Samuel Whitney and wife Mercy Partridge Three Hawaiian helpers: Thomas Hopu William Kaniu John Honolii On April 27, 1823, the Second (2nd) Company of American Protestant Missionaries arrived from New England. They arrived on the ship THAMES captained by Reuben Clasby. The missionaries were the following: Rev. Artemas Bishop and wife Elizabeth E. Abraham Blatchley, M. amnd wife Jemima Marvin Levi Chamberlain and wife, Maria Patton Rev. James Ely and wife, Louisa Everest Rev. Joseph Goodrich and wife, Martha Barnes Rev. William Richards and wife, Clarissa Lyman Rev. Charles Samuel Stewart and wife Harriet Bradford Tiffany Miss Betsy Stockton Tahitian: Stephen Popohe Hawaiians: William Kamooula Richard Kalaioulu Kupelii These mercenaries for the United States, armed with bibles, greed, jealousy, animosities, etc. quickly moved to encourage the kanaka maoli in joining their cause. They were opportunists who entered a Society which was in a state of anomie – unstable, flux, grasping at all religions to substitute one that was in place for hundreds/thousands of years. These mercenaries(backed by their government: the United States who also paid for their move, etc.) were operating from a slave-master society along with validation given to them through the Papal Bulls of 1493 by the Vatican to plunder upon ‘barbarous societies’. The Papal Bulls of 1493 allowed killing of peoples, most of whom were all peoples of color. On November 27, 1823, Kamehameha II – Liholiho (k) and company sailed for England. Kauikeaouli was named as heir apparent under Kaahumanu’s regency. On July 8, 1824, Kamamalu (w) died, six days later, on July 14, 1824 her husband, Kamehameha II – Liholiho (k) died. Both were afflicted with the measles, died in England and their bodies were returned unaccompanied by John Rives, Kamehameha’s II’s childhood playmate who was a Catholic. (Kamehameha II had seven wives. One was named Pali who married my great great grandfather.) Kaahumanu (w) who took care of Liholiho (k) was so angry that it appears that the Protestant Missionaries saw it as an opportunity and took advantage of the situation. Catholic Chiefs were tortured, imprisoned, put to hard labor. All Catholics were punished. ———————————- Summary: The information has been placed on the internet due to requests by one of many new friends, namely Mutassdes. The above information covers part of the missionary/mercenary period of Hawaii and the United States revealing the similarities of labeling Hawaiian/ kanaka maoli “Indians” by Americans and Brittish. Significantly, all countries will see some of the issues when exploring each time period with the missionaries/mercenaries in their homelands as well. The United States government maintains that they will “protect the lives, and property of their own” actually means that Americans outside of the United States, once investing in foreign soil is also investing as private investors in foreign lands due to the taxes, etc. due to the United States. As with out ancestors and the Great Mahele/Land Division period, Kamehameha III/King Kamehameha III, foreigners were given “freehold” paperwork, less than “allodial” paperwork. Americans then rewrote the meanings, destroyed old books that has the true definitions and proceeded to accomodate and deviate by helping themselves through devious manipulations of paperwork, legalities, etc. Although the United States and others tried to write history as Hawaii being barbaric, that charge could not be maintained due to the activities uncovered in conspiracies, deviance, FRAUD, criminal manipulations via the paper trails which exists in Monarchial and other such governments. FRAUD vitiates all claims, all contracts, which also covers all the bases for the many, excessive amount of reasons why the UNITED NATIONS can and must cease to exist. A formation of a new entity must be made for the purpose of ongoing respect to each country knowing that the United States has indeed set everyone up based on FRAUD, CONSPIRACIES, DEVIANCE and as documented by Queen Liliuokalani in 1893 has BREACHED THE LAW of NATIONS. The continued survival of all ANCIENT nations, countries, societies must recognize the importance of the LAW of NATIONS versus the manipulations and maneuvers by United States etals who maintains the documented charge of BREACHES by Hawaii’s Queen Liliuokalani, Kingdom of Hawaii, a Monarchy government turned Constitutional Monarchy. The Kings bloodlines EXIST, Kamehameha’s descendants are Royal Persons and NOT SUBJECT TO THE LAWS. The Sovereigns, namely King Kalakaua, bloodlines and heirs exist and much to the despair, despair of the entity calling themselves the State of Hawaii with documented OPPOSITION and wrongfully backed by the United States with ongoing and unresolved issues affecting ALL NATIONS today. Oppositions to War, financed at the expense of the Kingdom of Hawaii and our Kamehameha Families, Royals Families is UNACCEPTABLE. It is with ongoing hope and prayers that these efforts via the Internet are indeed purposeful and useful in maintaining the continued safety from harm by those who make BUSINESS OF WAR and set their goals on PLUNDERING UPON INNOCENTS for greed, power, animosities towards all people of color, etc…………………….aloha nui loa.

AN EXAMPLE OF THE EVIDENCE:

During Kamehameha’s lifetime, the Catholic Church maintained its Papal Bull Laws of 1493. The United States in unison with the Catholic church, passed laws validating The subjugation rules aligning itself with the Catholic Church. Because Queen Liliuokalani had many enemies, including her brother-in-laws Who were Masons/Freemasons with goals to rid Monarchies, and Their roles As Christian leaders backed up by the Pope, it could be stated that the Pope, His successors were also honorary member(s) in the secret Society set up to Sabotage governments including the Kingdom of Hawaii, knowingly Supporting TERRORIST governments such as the Entity which was neither de facto nor de jure stated Queen Liliuokalani but recognized by the United States Minister Stevens as a de facto Provisional Government. The United States backed the claims of the wrongdoers and was in BREACH of the Law of Nations maintained Queen Liliuokalani. The entity called itself a Republic, turned Territory, turned State and feeding off of the governments monies, income, Treasury, rents, leases, fees, taxes, etc. supplying the Catholic Church with agreements/Trusts to Maintain and perpetuate FRAUD in alignment with the Catholic, Christian/ Protestant, and the Secret Society (ies) such as the Masons/Freemasons Which maintains White races in OPPOSITION to ALL PEOPLES OF COLOR Including Hawaiians/kanaka maoli. The Roman Catholic Church/Church is documented as STEALING LANDS. See 1969 entries. Hawaiian/kanaka maoli researcher attended Protest in Rome. Early 2002, The Pope merely apologized for the Papal Bulls of 1493. The mere apology Carries no weight, means nothing. The Papal Bulls of 1493 is a DEATH WARRANT for claimed uncivilized nations honored and followed By the United States due to the 1923 U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Johnson v. McIntosh 8 Wheat 543 expressing the subjugation principle expressed in the Inter Cetera Bull. Be ever so watchful of the ongoing Crusaders which includes perverted Priests and Americans, etal. Militaries.

Legal Research by Nelson
unidentified author, the pages were shared by a mainland researcher…..until the actual author is discovered the following remains as is with the knowledge that JOHN B. NELSON, Legal Scholar, did the research. Due to the IMPORTANT, SIGNIFICANT ISSUES DOCUMENTED, the following Information is meant for all Countries, all United States Citizens, etals. to be educated and aware of the SCHEMES, FRAUD, TREASONOUS ACTIVITIES by an Administration that is setting up to KILL INNOCENTS in the Middle East and elsewhere:

“ The United States is Bankrupt Now

Documented Evidence

I hope this communication finds you well and mentally strong for the occasion. It is quite apparent that the “Treasonous” and “Seditious” are brewing up a storm of untold magnitude…. John B. Nelson December 26, 1991

Re: Senate Report No. 93-549, Etc.

To: The American National People, The people of the State of Colorado, U.S.A.

(Note: I strongly recommend, while you are reading this material, that you mentally skip over the [bracketed] material. Mr. Nelson has researched this writing to a far greater extent than most other material you will ever be exposed to and the source material is vitally important to demonstrate that this material is founded on fact and on Law (statute). However, as important as the sources are, you will find it extremely difficult to read this Adendum if you insist on reading each and evey word. Please, skip the [brackets] and only refer to them when you find a need for a source. To help you in distinguishing between the source material and the main part of the material presented, I have italicized all of the material in [brackets] which are not vital to the understanding of the facts being presented, but which are vital to prove the facts stated.)

I have enclosed Senate Report No. 93-549 (Note: If you wish to have a copy of this report, simply call your Senator and request it from him), consisting of 607 pages, which I believe you will find most interesting. The United States went “Bankrupt” in 1933 and was declared so by President Roosevelt by Executive Orders 6073, 6102, 6111 and Executive Order 6260 [See: Senate Report 93-549, pgs 187 & 594 under the “Trading With the Enemy Act” {Sixty-Fifth congress, Sess. I, chs. 105,106, October 6, 1917}, and as codified at 12 U.S.C.A. 95a}. The several States of the Union then pledged the faith and credit thereof to the aid of the National Government, and formed numerous socialist committees, such as the “Council of State Governments”, “Social Security Administration” etc., to purportedly deal with the economic “Emergency”. These Organizations operated under the “Declaration of INTERdependence” of January 22, 1937, and published some of their activities in “The Book Of The States.” The 1937 Edition of The Book Of The States openly declared that the people engaged in such activities as the Farming/Husbandry Industry had been reduced to mere feudal “Tenants” on their Land [Book Of The States, 1937, pg. 155].

This , of course, was compounded by such activities as price fixing wheat and grains [7 U.S.C.A. 1332], quota regulation [7 U.S.C.A. 1371], and livestock products [7 U.S.C.A. 1903], which have been held consistently below the costs of production, interest on loans and inflation of the paper “Bills of Credit” (Author’s note: Mr. Nelson is referring to Federal Reserve Notes); leaving the food producers and others in a state of peonage and involuntary servitude, constituting the taking of private property, for the benefit and use of others, without just compensation.

Note: The Council of State Governments has now been absorbed into such things as the “National Conference of Commissioners On Uniform State Laws”, whose Headquarters’ Office is located at 676 North Street, Clair Street, Suite 1700, Chicago, Illinois 60611, and “all” being “members of the Bar”, and operating under a different “Constitution and ByLaws” has promulgated, lobbied for, passed, adjudicated and ordereed the implementation and execution of their purported statutory provisions, to “help implement international treaties of the United States or where world uniformity would be desirable” [See: 1990/91 Reference Book, National council of Commissioners On Uniform State Laws, pg. 2]. This is apparently what Robert Bork meant when he wrote “we are governed not by law or elected representatives but by an unelected, unrepresentative, unaccountable committee of lawyers applying no will but their own” [See: The Tempting of america, Robert H. Bork, pg. 130].

The United States thereafter entered the second World War during which time the “League of Nations” was re instituted under the pretense of the “United Nations” and the “Bretton Woods Agreement” [See: 60 Stat. 1401]. The United States as a corporate body politic (artificial), came out of World War II in worse economic shape than when it entered, and in 1950 declared Bankruptcy and “Reorganization.” The Reorganization is located in Title 5 of the United States Codes annotated. The “Explanation” at the beginning of 5 U.S.C.A. is most informative reading. The “Secretary of the Treasury” was appointed as the “Receiver” in Bankruptcy.[See: Reorganization Plan No. 26, 5 U.s.C.a. 903, Public Law 94-564, Legislative History, pg. 5967]. The United States went down the road and periodically filed for further Reorganization. Things and situations worsened, having done what they were Commanded NOT to do [See: Madison’s Notes, Constitutional Convention, August 16, 1787, Federalist Papers No. 44 and in 1965 passed the “Coinage Act of 1965” completely debasing the Constitutional Coin (gold & silver Dollar)]. [See: 18 U.S.C.A. 331 & 332, U.S. vs. Marigold, 50 U.S.560, 13 L.Ed. 257]. At the signing of the Coinage Act on July 23, 1965, Lyndon B. Johnson stated in his Press Release that:

“When I have signed this bill before me, we will have made the first fundamental change in our coinage in 173 years. The Coinage Act of 1965 supersedes the Act of 1792. And that Act had the title: An Act Establishing a Mint and Regulating the Coinage of the United States…”

“Now I will sign this bill to make the first change in our coinage system since the 18th Century. To those members of Congress, who are here on this historic occasion, I want to assure you that in making this change from the 18th Century we have no idea of returning to it.”

It is important to take cognizance of the fact that NO Constitutional Amendment was ever obtained to FUNDAMENTALLY “Change”, amend, abridge or abolish the Constitutional mandates, provisions or prohibitions, but due to internal and external diversions surrounding the Viet Nam War Etc., the usurpation and breach went basically unchallenged and unnoticed by the general public at large, who became “a wealthy man’s cannon fodder or cheap source of slave labor”[See: Silent Weapons For Quiet Wars, TM-SW7905.1, pgs 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, and 56]. Congress was clearly delegated the Power and Authority to regulate and maintain the true and inherent “value “ of the Coin within the scope and purview of Article I, Section 8, Clauses 5 & 6 and Article I, Section 10, Clause 1, of the ordained Sonstitution (1787), and further, under a corresponding duty and obligation to maintain said gold and silver Coin and Foreign Coin at and within the necessary and proper “equal weights and measures” clause [See also: Bible, Dueteronomy, Chapter 25, verses 13 through 16, Public Law 97-289, 96 Stat. 1211]:

Those exercising the Offices of the several States, in equal measure, knew such “De Facto Transitions” were unlawful and unauthorized, but sanctioned, implemented and enforced the complete debauchment and the resulting “governmental, social, industrial economic change” in the “De Jure” States and in United States of America [See: Public Law 94-564, Legislative History, pg. 5936, 5945, 31 U.S.C.A. 314, 31 U.S.C.A. 321, 31 U.S.C.A. 5112, C.R.S. 11-61-101, C.R.S. 39-22-103.5 and C.R.S. 18-11-203], and were and are now under the delusion that they can do both directly and indirectly what they were absolutely prohibited from doing [See also: Federalist Papers No. 44, Craig vs. Missouri, 4 Peters 903].

In 1966, Congress being severly compromised, passed the “Federal Tax Lien Act of 1966,” by which the entire taxing and monetary system i.e., “Essential Engine” [See: Federalist Papers No. 31], was placed under the Uniform Commercial Code [See: Public Law 899-719, Legislative History, pg. 3722, also see, C.R.S. 5-1-106]. The Uniform Commercial Code was of course promulgated by the National Conferences of Commissioners On Uniform State Laws in collusion with the American Law Institute for the “banking and business interests” [See: Handbook Of The National Conference Of Commissioners On Uniform State Laws, ()1966) Ed., pgs. 152 & 153]. The United States being engaged in numerous U.N. conflicts, including the Korean and the Viet Nam conflicts, which were under the direction of the United Nations [See: 22 U.S.C.A. 287d], and agreeing to foot the bill [See: 22 U.S.C.A. 287j], and not being able to honor their obligations and re hypothecated debt credit, openly and publicly dishonored and disavowed their “Notes” and “obligations”. [12 U.S.C.A. 411], i.e., “Federal Reserve Notes” through Public Law 90-269, Section 2, 82 Stat. 50 (1968), to wit:

“Sec. 2. The first sentence of section 15 of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 391) is amended by striking and the funds provided in this Act for the redemption of Federal Reserve Notes’.”

Things steadily grew worse and on March 28, 1970, President Nixon issued Proclamation No. 3972, declaring an “emergency” because the Postal Employees struck against the de facto government (?) for higher pay, due to inflation of the paper “Bills of Credit” [See: Senate Report No. 93-549, pg 596]. Nixon place the U.S. Postal Department under control of the “Department of Defense” [See: Department of the Army Field Manual, FM 41-10 (1969 Ed.)].

“The System has been faltering for a decade, but the bench mark date of the collapse is put at August 15, 1971. On this day, President Nixon reversed U.S. international monetary policy by officially declaring the non-convertibility of the U.S. dollar (F.R.N.) into gold” [See: public Law 94-564, Legislative History, pg. 5937 & Senate Report No. 93-549, Foreword pg 111, Proclamation No. 4074, pg. 597, 31 U.S.C.A. 314 & 31 U.S.C.A. 5112].

On September 21, 1973, Congress passed Public Law 93-110, amending the Bretton Woods Par Value Modification Act, 82 Stat. 116 [31 U.S.C.A. 449], and reiterated the ‘Emergency’ [22 U.S.C.A. 95a], and section 8 of the Bretton Woods Agreements Act of 1945 [22 U.S.C.A. 286f], and which included ‘reports of foreign currency transactions’ ]see also: Executive Order No. 10033]. This Act further declared in Section 2(b) that:

“No provision of any law in effect on the date of enactment of this Act, and no rule, regulation, or order under authority of any such law, may be construed to prohibit any person from purchasing, holding, selling, or otherwise dealing with gold.”

On January 19, 1976, Marjorie S. Holt noted for the record, a second “Declaration of INTERdependence” and clearly identified the U.N. as a “Communist” organization, and that they were seeking both production and monetary control over the Union and the People through International Organizations promoting the “One World Order” [See: 8 U.S.C.A. 1101 (40), 50 U.S.C.A. 781 & 783].

The socio/economic situation worsened as noted in the Complaint/Petition, filed in the U.S. Court of Claim, Docket No. 41-76, on Fegruary 11, 1976, by 44 Federal Judges, Atkins eta al. Vs. U.S. Atkins et al. Complained that “As a result of inflation, the compensation of federal judges has been substantialy diminished each year since 1969, causing direct and continuing monetary harm to plaintiffs…the real value of the dollar decreased by approximately 34.5 percent from March 15th, 1969 to October 1, 1975…As a result, plaintiffs have suffered as unconstitutional deprivation of earnings”, and in the prayer for relief claimed “damages for the constitutional violations enumerated above, measured as the dimunition of his earnings for the entire period since March 9, 1969.” It is quite apparent that the persons holding and enjoying Offices of Public Trust, Honor and/or Profit knew of the emergency emergent problem and sought protection for themselves, to the damage and injury of the People and Children, who were classified as “a club that has many other members” who “have no remedy.” And knowing that “heinous” acts had been committed, stated that they [judges/lawyers] would not apply the Law, nor would any substantive remedy be applied (checked more or less, but never stopped)”until all of us [judges] are dead.” Such persons Fraudulently swore an Oath to uphold, defend and preserve the soverignty of the Nation and several Republican States of the Union, and breached the Duty to protect the People/Citizens and Poterity from fraud, imposition, avarice, and stealthy encroachment [See: Atkins et al. Vs. U.S. 556, F.2d 1028, pgs. 1072, 1074, The Tempting of America, supra, pgs. 69-71, C.R.S. 24-75-101]. This is verifed in Public Law 94-564, Legislative History, pg. 5944, which states:

“Moving to a floating exchange rate for international commerce means private enterprise and not central governments bear the risk of currency fluctuations.”

Numerous serious debates were held in Congress, including but not limited to, Tuesday: July 27, 1976 [See: Congressional Record – House, July 27, 1976], concerning the International Financial Institutions and their operations. Representative Ron Paul, Chairman of the House Banking Committee, made numerous references to the true practices of the “International” financial institutions, including but not limited to, the conversion of 27,000,000 (2.7 million) in gold, contributed by the United States as part of its “quota obligations”, which the International Monetary Fund (Governor-Secretary of Treasury) sold [See: Public Law 94-564, Legislative History, pgs. 5945 & 5946] under some very questionable terms and concessions [See also: The ron Paul Money Book, (1991), by Ron Paul, Plantain Publishing, 837 W. Plantation, Chite, Texas 77531].

“(2) Section 10(a) of the Gold Reserve Act of 1934 (31 U.S.C. 822a(b) is amended by striking out the phrase ‘stabilizing the exchange value of the dollar’…”

“( c ) The joint resolution entitled ‘Joint resolution to assure uniform value to the coins and currencies of the United States’, approved June 5, 1933 (31 U.S.C. 463) shall not apply to obligations issued on or after the date of enactment of this section.”

The United States as Corporator [22 U.S.C.A. 286e, et seq.], and “State” [C.R.S. 24-36-104, C.R.S. 24-60-130(h)] had declared “Insolvency” [See: 261.R.C. 165(g)(1), U.C.C. 1-201(23), C.R.S. 39-22-103.5, Westfall vs. Bradley, 10 Ohio 188, 78 Am. Dec. 509, Adams vs. Richardson, 337 S.W. 2d 911, Ward vs. Smith, 7 Wall 447]. A permanent state of “Emergency” was instituted, formed and erected within the Union through the contrivances, fraud and avarice of the International Financial Institutions, Organizations, Corporations and associations, including the Federal Reserve, their “fiscal and depository agent” [See: 22 U.S.C.A. 286d]. This has lead to such “Emergency” legislation as the “Public Debt Limit-Balance Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985”, Public Law 99-177, etc.

The government by becoming a corporator [See: 22 U.S.C.A. 286d], lays down its sovereignty and takes on that of a private citizen. It can exercise no power which is not derived from the corporate charter [See: The Bank of the United States vs. Planters Bank of Georgia, 6 L. Ed. (9 Wheat) 244, U.S. vs. Burr, 309 U.S. 242]. The real part of interest is not the de jure “United States of America” or “State”, but “The Bank” and “The Fund” [See: 22 U.S.C.A. 286, et seq., C.R.S. 11-60-103]. The acts committed under fraud, force and seizures are many times done under “Letters of Marque and Reprisal”,i.e., “recapture” [See: 31 U.S.C.A. 5323]. Such principles as “Fraud and Justice never dwell together” [Wingate’s Maxims 680], and “A right of action cannot arie out of fraud’ [Broom’s Maxims 297, 729; Cowper’s Reports 343, 5 Scott’s New Reports 558, 10 Mass, 276; 38 Fed. 800]. And do not rightfully contemplate the thought concept, as “Due Process”, “Just Compensation” and Justice itself. Honor or earned by honesty and integrity, not under false and fraudulent pretenses, nor will the color of the cloth one wears cover-up the usurpation’s, lies, trickery and deceits. When Black is fraudulently declared to be White, not all will live in darkness. As astutely observed by Will Rogers, “there are men running governments who shouldn’t be allowed to play with matches”, and is as applicable today as Jesus’ statement about Lawyers.

The contrived “emergency” has created numerous abuses and usurpation’s, and abridgments of delegated Powers and Authority. As stated in Senate Report 93-549:

“These proclamations give force to 470 provisions of Federal law. These hundreds of statutes delegate to the President extraordinary powers, ordinarily exercised by the Congress, which affect the lives of American citizens in a host of all-encompassing manners. This vast range of powers, taken together, confer enough authority to rule the country without reference to normal constitutional process.

Under the powers delegated by these sttutes, the President may: seize property; organize and control the means of production; seize commodities; assign military forces abroad; institute martial law; seize and control all transportation and communication; regulate the operation of private enterprise; restrict travel; and in a plethora of particular ways, control the lives of all American citizens” [See: Foreword, pg III]

The “Introduction”, on page 1, begins with a phenomenal declaration, to wit:

“A majority of the people of the United States have lived all of their lives under emergency rule. For 40 years, freedoms and governmental procedures guaranteed by the Constitution have in varying degrees been abridged by laws brought into force by states of national emergency…”

According to the research done in 16 American Jurisprudence, 2nd Edition, Sections 71 and 82, no “emergency” justifies a violation of any Constitutional provision. Arguendo, “Supremacy Clause” and “Separation of Powers”, it is clearly admitted in Senate Report No. 93-549 that abridgment has ocurred. The statements heard in the Federal and State Tribunals (Author’s note: Tribunals are what our so-called courts really are, leagally speaking), on numerous occasions, that Constitutional arguments are “i“material”,”frivolous” ”tc., are based upon the concealment, furtherance and compounding of the Frauds and “Emergency” created and sustained by the “Expatriated”, ALIENS of the United Nations and its Organizations, Corporations and Associations [See: Letter, Insight Magazine, February 18, 1991, pg. 7, Lowell L. Flanders, President, U.N. Staff Union, New York]. Please note that, 8 U.S.C.A. 1481, is one of the controlling statutes on expatriation, as is 22 U.S.C.A. 611, 612 & 613 and 50 U.S.C.A. 781.

The Internal Revenue Service entered into a “service agreement” with the U.S. Treasury Department [See: Public Law 94-564, Legislative History; pg. 5967, Reorganization Plan No. 26] and the Agency for International Development, pursuant to Treasury Delegation Order No. 91. The Agency for International Development is an International paramilitary operation [See: Department of the Army Field Manual, (1969) FM 41-10, pgs. 1-4, Sec. 1-7(b) & 1-6, Section 1-10(7)(c)(1), 22 U.S.C.A. 284], and includes such activities as “Assumption of full or partial executive, legislative, and judicial authority over a country or area” [See: FM 41-10, pg. 1-7, Section 110(7)(c)(4); also the Agreement Between The United Nations And The United States of America Regarding The Headquarters Of The United Nations, Section 7(d) & (8), 22 U.S.C.A. 287 (1979 Ed.) at pg. 241). It is to be further observed that the “Agreement” regarding the Headquarters District of the United Nations was NOT agreed to [See: Congressional Record-Senate, December 13, 1967, Mr. Thurnond], and is illegally in the Country in the first instant.

The International Organizational intents, purposes and activities include complete control of “Public Finance”, i.e., “control, supervision, and audit of indigenous fiscal resources, budget practices, taxation, expenditures of public funds, currency issues, and banking agencies and affiliates” [See: FM 41-10, pgs. 2-30 through 2-31, Section 251, Public Finance]. This, of course, complies with “Silent Weapons For Quiet Wars” Research Technical Manual TM-SW7905.1, which discloses a declaration of war upon the American people (See: pgs. 3 & 7), monetary control by the Internationalist, through information, etc., solicited and collected by the Internal Revenue Service [See: TM-SW7905.1, pg 48, also see, 22 U.S.C.A. 286F & Executive Order No. 10033, 26 U.S.C.A. 6103(k) (4)] and who is operating and enforcing the seditious International program [See: TM-SW7905.1, pg. 52]. The 1985 Edition of the Department of Army Field Manual, FM 41-10, further describes the International “Civil Affairs” operations. At page 3-6, it is admitted that the A.I.D. is autonomous and under the direction of the International Development Cooperation Agency, and at page 3-8, that the operation is “paramilitary.” The International Cooperation Agency, and at page 3-8, that the operation is “paramilitary”. The International Organization(s) intents and purposes was to promote, implement, and enforce a “DICTATORSHIP OVER FINANCE IN THE UNITED STATES” [See: Senate Report No. 93-549, pg. 186].

It appears from the documentary evidence tht the Internal Revenue Service Agents etc. are “Agents of a Foreign Principal” within the meaning and intent of the “Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938.” They are directed and controlled by the corporate “Governor” of “The Fund”, also known s “Secretary of Treasury” [See: Public Law 94-564, supra, pg. 5942, U.S. Government Manual 1990/91, pgs. 480 & 481, 26 U.S.C.A. 7701(a)(11), Treasury Delegation Order No. 150-10], and the corporate “Governor” of “The Bank” 22 U.S.C.A. 286 and 286a, acting as “information-service employees” {22 U.S.C.A. 611(c)(ii)], and have been and do now “solicit, collect, disburse or dispense contribution [Tax – pecuniary contribution, Black’s Law Dictionary, 5th Edition], loans money or other things of value for or in interest of such foreign principal [22 U.S.C.A. 611(c)(iii)], and they entered into agreements with a Foreign Principal pursuant to Treasury Delegation Order No. 91, i.e., the “Agency For International Development” [See: 22 U.S.C.A. 611 (c) (2)]. The Internal Revenue Service is also an agency of the International Criminal Police Organization, and solicits and collects information for 150 Foreign Powers [See: U.S.C.A. 263a, The United States Government Manual, 1990/91, pg. 385, see also, The Ron Paul Money Book, pgs, 250-251]. It should be further noted that Congress has appointed, transferred, and converted vast sums to Foreign Powers [See: 22 U.S.C.A. 262c(b)] and has entered into numerous Foreign Taxing Treaties (conventions) [See: 22 U.S.C.A. 285g, 22 U.S.C.A. 287j] and other Agreements, which are solicited and collected pursuant to 261 R.C. 6103(k)(4). Along with the other documentary evidence submitted herewith, this should absolve any further doubt as to the true character of the party. Such restrictions as “For the general welfare and common defense of the United States” [See: Constitution (1787), Article I, Section 8, Clause 1] apparently aren’t applicable, and the fraudulent re hypothecated debit credit will be merely added to the insolvent nature of the continual “emergency”, and the reciprocal socio/economic repercussions laid upon present and future generations.

Among other reasons for lack of authority to act, such as a Foreign Agents Registration Statement, 22 U.S.C.A. 612 and 18 U.S.C.A. 219 & 951, military authority cannot be imposed into civil affairs {See: Department of The Army Pamphlet 27100-70, Military Law Review, Vol. 70]. The United Nations Charter, Article 2, Section 7, further prohibits the U.N. from intervening in matters which are essentially within the domestic jurisdiction of any state…” Korea, Viet Nam, Ethiopia, Angola, Kuwait, etc., are evidence enough of the “BAD FAITH” of the United Nations and its Organizations, Corporations and Associations, not to mention the seizing of two day care centers in the State of Minnesota by their agents, and holding the children as collateral/hostages for payment/ransom of their fraudulent, dishonored, re hypothecated debt credit, worthless securities (Author’s note: Yes, this statement is correct. I.R.S. agents seized the day care centers and the children, and refused to permit the parents permission to remove their children from the centers until certain public credit (Federal Reserve Notes) funds were collected from the parents. In several instances, this included funds which were not owing by the parents. Something for you to consider, I’m sure that all of those children hd social security numbers, and parents married under a priviledge granted by the state (marriage license)). Such is the “Rule of Law” “as envisioned by the Founders” of the United Nations. Such is Communist terrorism, despotism and tyranny. ALL WERE AND ARE OUTLAWED HERE.

I hope this communication finds you well and mentally strong for the occasion. It is quite apparent that the “Treasonous” and “Seditious” are brewing up a storm of untold magnitude. Bush’s public address of September 11, 1991 [See: Weekly Compilation of Presidential Documents] should further qualify what is being said here. He admitted “Interdependence” [See also: Public Law 94-564, Legislative History, pg. 5950], “One World Order” [See: Extension Of Remarks, January 19, 1976, Marjorie S. Holt, 8 U.S.C.A. 1101(40)], affiliation and collusion with the Soviet Union Oligarchy[50 U.S.C.A. 781], direction by the U.N. [22 U.S.C.A. 611] etc. You might also find it interesting that Treasury Delegation Order No. 92 states that the I.R.S. is trained under the direction of the Division of “Human Resources” (U.N.) and the Commissioner (INTERNATIONAL), by the “Office of Personal Management.” In the 1979 Edition of 22 U.S.C.A. 287, The United Nations, at pg. 248, you will find Executive Order No. 10422. The Office of Personnel Management is under direction of the Secretary General of the United Nations. And as stated previously, the I.R.S. is also a member in a one hundred fifty (150) nation pact called the “International Criminal Police Organization” found at 22 U.S.C.A. 263a. The “Memorandum & Agreement” between the Secretary of Treasury/Corporate Governor of “The Fund” and “The Bank” and the Office of the U.S. Attorney General would indicate that the Attorney General and his associates are soliciting and collecting information for Foreign Principals [See: The United States Government Manual 1990/91, pg. 385; also see, The Ron Paul Money Book, supra, pgs, 250-251].

It is worthy of note that each and every Attorney/Representative, Judge, or Officer is required to file a “Foreign Agents Registration Statement” pursuant to 22 U.S.C.A. 611©(1)(iv) & 612, if representing the interests of a Foreign Principal or Power [See 22U.S.C.A. 613; Rabinowitz vs. Kennedy, 376 U.S. 605, 11 L. Ed.2d 940; 18 U.s.C.A. 219 & 951].

On January 17, 1980, the President and Senate confirmed another “Constitution”, namely, the “constitution of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization”, found at Senate, Treaty Document No. 97-19, 97th Congress, 1st Session. A perusal of this Foreign Constitution should more than qualify the internationalist intents. The “Preamble”, Article 1, “Objectives” and Article 2, “Functions”, clearly evidences their intent to direct, control, finance and subsidize all “natural and human resources” and “agro-related as well as basic industries”, through “dynaic social and economic changes”” with a view to assisting in the establishment of a new international economic order.” The high flown rhetoric is obviously of “Communist” origin and intents. An unelected, unrepresentative, unaccountable oligarchy of expatriates and aliens, who fraudulently claim in the Preamble that they intend to establish “rational and equitable international economic relations”, yet openly declare that they no longer “stabilize the value of the dollar” nor “assure the value of the coin and currency of the United States” is purely misrepresentation, deceit and fraud [See: Public Law 95-147; 91 Stat. 1227, at pg. 1229]. This was augmented by [Public Law 101-167] 103 Stat. 1195, which discloses massive appropriations of re hypothecated debt for the general welfare and common defense of other Foreign Powers, including “Communist” countries or satelllites. International control of natural and human resources, etc. etc. A “Resource” is a claim of “property” and when related to people constitutes “slavery.”

It is now necessary to ask, “Which constitution they are operating under?” The “Constitution For the Newstates Of The United States.” This effort was the subject matter of the book entitled “The Emerging Constitution” by Rexford G. Tugewll, which was accomplished under the auspices of the Rockefeller tax-exempt foundation called the “Center For The Study of Democratic Institutions.” The People and Citizens of the Nation were forewarned against formation of “Democracies.” “Democracies have ever been the spectacles of turbulence and contention, have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths” [See: Federalist Papers No. 10; see also, The Law, Fredrick Bastiat; Code of Professional Responsibility; Preamble]. This Alien Constitution, however, has nothing to do with democracy in reality. It is the basis of and for a despotic, tyrannical oligarch.

(Author’s note: Make no mistake about what Mr. Nelson just said. The International Elite, the money kings, are PRESENTLY, by a gradual change in the laws of the nation, bringing the Newstates Constitution into force and effect. If this was a honest, legal change in the form of government of the United States of america, you would be reading about it in the papers and watching debates concerning the possible effects of this type of change on T.V. Not to mention hearing about it constantly on talk radio. Since this move is being hidden from the people of America, we know and understand that treason is being commited by the President of the United States and by many members of Congress. Undoubtedly, many members of Congress do not understand exactly what is going on. As long as they continue to receive their “contributions,” they will “go along, to get along.” My question to you is, why are you permitting these type of men to represent you?)

Article I, “Rights and Responsibilities”, Sections 1 and 15 evidence their knowledge of the “emergency.” The Rights of expression, communication, movement, assembly, petition and Habeas Corpus are all excepted from being exercised under and in a “declared emergency.” The constitution for the Newstates of America, openly declares, among other seditious things and delusions that “Until each indicated change in the government shall have been completed the provisions of the existing constitution and the organs of government shall be in effect”. [See Article XII, Section 3] “All operations of the national government shall cease as they are replaced by those authorized under this Constitution” [See: Article XII, Section 4]. This is apparently what Burger was promoting in 1976, after he resigned as Supreme Court Justice and took up the promotion of a “Constitutional Convention.” No trial by jury is mentioned, “JUST” compensation has been removed, along with being informed of the “Nature & Cause of the Accusation”, etc.etc. and every one will, of course, participate in the “democracy.” The Constitution is but a reiteration of the Communist Doctrines, intents and purposes, and clearly establishes a “Police Power” State, under direction and control of a self appointed oligarchy.

Foreign/Alien Constitutions, Laws, Rules and Regultions. The overthrow of the “essential engine” declared in and by the ordained and established Constitution for the United States of America (1787), and by an under the “Bill of Rights” (1791) is obvious. The covert procedure used to implement and enforce these Foreign Constitutions, Laws, Procedures, Rules, Regulations, Etc. has not, to my knowledge, been collected and assimilated nor presented as evidence to establish seditious collusion and conspiracy.

Fortunately and Unfortunately in my Land it is necessary to seek, obtain and present EVIDENCE to sustain a conviction and/or judgment. Our patience and tolerance for those who pervert the very necessary and basic foundations of society has been pushed to insufferable levels. They have “fundamentally” changed the form and substance of the de jure Republican form of Government, exhibited a willful and wanton disregard for the Rights, Safety and Property of others, evinced a despotic design to reduce my people to slavery, peonage and involuntary servitude, under a fraudulent, tyrannical, seditious foreign oligarchy, with the intent and purpose to institute, erect and form a “Dictatorship”over the Citizens and our Posterity. They have completely debauched the de jure monetary system, destroyed the Livelihood and Lives of thousands, aided and abetted our enemies, declared War upon us and our Posterity, destroyed untold families and made homeless over 750,000 children in the middle of winter, afflicted widows and orphans, turned Sodomites lose among our young, implemented foreign laws, rules, regulations and procedures within the body of the country, incited insurrection, rebellion, sedition and anarchy within the dejure society, illegally entered our Land, taken the false Oaths, entered into Seditious Foreign Constitutions, Agreements, Pactions, Confederations, and Alliances, and under pretense of “emergency”, which they themselves created, promoted and furthered, formed a multitude of offices and retained those of alien allegiance to perpetuate their frauds and to eat out the substance of the good and productive people of our Land, and have arbitrarily dismissed and held mock trials for those who trespassed upon our lives, Liberties, Properties and Families and endangered our Peace, Safety, Welfare and dignity. The damage, injury and costs have been higher than mere money can repay. They have done that which they were COMMANDED NOT TO DO. The time for just correction is NOW!

Sincere consideration of “Presentment” to a Grand Jury under the ordained and established constitution for the United States of American (1787), Amendment V is in order. Numerous High Crimes and Misdemeanors have been committed under the Constitution for the United States of America, and Laws made in Pursuance thereof, and under the constitution for the State of Colorado, and the laws made in Pursuance thereof, and against the Peace and Dignity of the People, including but not limited to, C.R.S. 18-11-203, which defines and prescribes punishment for “Seditious Associations” which is applicable to the other constitutions, and the intents and professed purposes of their Organizations, Corporations and Associations. If the Presentment should be obstructed by the members of the Bar, ARREST THEM.

I could go on but the story is long! I hope this information and research is of assistance to you. Much remains to be uncovered and disclosed, as it is necessary and imperative to secure the Lives, Liberties, Property, Peace and Dignity of the People and our Posterity. Good Hunting and the Good Lord be with you in all your endeavors.
God Bless John Nelson, Jure Soli Jure Sanguinis, Jure Coronea

P.S. In addition, I am yet expecting a copy of the “Service Agreement”[T.D.O. 91]. It was located in the Department of Treasury, office of the Assistant General Council (International Affairs), Russell L. Munk, 1500 Pennsylvania Ave. N.W., Washington, D.C. 20220. Efforts are being made to obtain a copy, but so far have been obstructed by the Bar. If anyone knows where and how a copy can be obtained please do so immediately, the documents are necessary and imperative. It ought to be most informative! By the way, it’s against the law for an insolvent to make a loan or to try to fraudulently collect thereon [See: Neal et a. vs. Clark, 251 P.2d.903]. It should be further noted that an “Alien” or “Denizen” cannot sit on a Jury [See: 3 Am. Jur.2d Sec.40], nor hold a Public Office [See also: 50 U.S.C.A. 781(9) & 842].

The “out of court” summery determinations upon matters in issue is purely , “Administrative” procedure [see: 1 Am. Jur. 2d Sec. 78]. The jury, if any, is reduced to an “advisory jury” position, and is more than likely arrayed as a “homage” jury (Note: What Mr. Nelson means is that since all juries impaneled in American come from the “Registered Voter” list of United States citizens, and are Aliens to the State wherein they re sitting, they are not a Jury as defined in the Constitution, but are merely an advisory panel for the so-called judge, actually an Administrative Magistrate under the Executive branch of the federal government. As more and more of these hidden facts become clear to you, what is wrong in American becomes painfully clear).

5 U.S.C.A. 701-701 should be of interest concerning “Judicial Review” of Agency actions. It can be found in most States under such headings and Acts as the “Administrative Procedures Act” or the “Administrative Reorganization Act.”

All de facto Federal/International chartered “Institutions”, their Officers, Employees, Servants, Agents and Representative re subject to and should be turned over to a Court of Law for prosecution, trial and judgment according to law [See: Pope Mfg. Co. vs. Gormully, 144 U.S. 414, at pg. 419; see also, 22 U.S.C.A. 286g].

“FRAUD vitiates the most solemn Contracts, documents and even judgments” (U.S. vs. Throckmorton, 98 US61, at pg. 65).

I believe that the statement made in Cohen vs. Virginia, 6 Wheat 264, 5 L.Ed 257 (1821) is worthy of note:

“We (Courts) have no more right to decline the exercise of jurisdiction which is given, than to usurp that which is not given. THE ONE OR THE OTHER WOULD BE TREASON TO THE CONSTITUTION” (Also see: U.S. vs. Will, 449 US 200 66 L.Ed. 3d 392, at pg. 406).

“WHEN IN THE COURSE OF HUMAN EVENTS…WHENEVER ANY FORM OF GOVERNMENT BECOMES DESTRUCTIVE…WHEN A LONG TRAIN OF ABUSES AND USURPATIONS’S, PURSUING INVARIABLE THE SAME OBJECT, EVINCES A DESIGN TO REDUCE THEM UNDER ABSOLUTE DESPOTISM, IT IS THEIR RIGHT, IT IS THEIR DUTY…” [Declaration of Independence]

“No political truth is of greater intrinsic value….The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary in the same hands, whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may be justly pronounced the very definition of tyranny”[Federalist Papers No. 47]. (Author’s note: This refers to the Separation of Powers which forms the basis for freedom in our Republican form of government.)

“IF a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be. The functions of every government have propensities to command at will the liberties and property of ther constituents. There is no safe deposit for these but with the people themselves; nor can they be safe with them without information” [The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, Albert E. Bergh Ed., vol. 14, pg. 384].

One cannot make agreements with Sodomites, Babylonians and/or Satanics. Their words, oaths or signatures are of no meaning or value; their intent and purpose is to deceive, cheat, steal, lie, defraud and destroy. The seditious overt conspiracy and collusion of certain Organizations, Corporations and Associations to damage, injure, oppress, threaten, intimidate and enforce their fraudulent, foreign, socialist, Communist, “Democracy” and foist their delusions upon the Citizens and children of this land, and to corrupt the de jure Public Offices established to accomplish the purposes set forth in the “Preamble” to the ordained and established Constitution is cause and necessity enough.

Once again finding our safety, happiness and liberties to be in imminent danger, it has become necessary and imperative to our rights, privileges, immunities, lives, liberties and property and that of our prosperity, to declare our separate and equal station, and exercise our Right and Duty to throw off and abolish the form and operation of thede facto, fraudulent, seditious “state” [See: Constitution For The State Of Colorado, Article II, Section 2; Declaration of Independence (1776); Constitution For The United States Of America, Amendments IX and X, C.R.S. 24-60-130], Article IV(h)].

Section 2. People may alter or abolish form of government – proviso. The people of this state have the sole and exclusive right of governing themselves, as a free, sovereign and independent state; and to alter or abolish their constitution and form of government whenever they deem it necessary to their safety and happiness, provided, such change be not repugnant to the constitution of the United States.

70 Countries Affected

LAW OF NATIONS

Intact for hundreds of years, until the time that Queen Liliuokalani maintained that the United States BREACHED the Law of Nations.

League of Nations

Formed in 1817, shortly before Queen Liliuokalani died.

Only two nation members: United States and Great Britain. Both planned the formation of the United Nations.

United Nations
1942. January 2. Fifty nations pledged themselves “to employ full resources against the Axis powers, not to make a separate peace, etc.” in Washington. They signed a charter which was written at theUnited Nations Conference on International Organization. 1944. August 21 – October 7. Representatives of the United States, Great Britain, Russia and China met, planned, proposed and formulated to “deal with world peace and security” through a general international organization. 1945. April 25 – June 26. A conference “United Nations Conference on International Organization was held from April 25 to June 26, 1945 in San Francisco. The charter was based on the proposals of Dumbarton Oaks Conference, a mansion in Washington, D.C.

INTERNATIONAL LAWS
1864. A socialist association, International Working-Men’s Association, met and formed a political organization in 1864. Karl Marx was the influence. 1876. The International Working-Men’s Association also known as the First International was dissolved in Philadelphia. 1889. An international, socialist group was formed, which included various countries. They agreed to hold international congresses from time to time. 1919. A communist association was formed in Moscow, uniting various countries radical groups promoting revolutions or violence.

Christian International Laws/ Papal Bulls of the Vatican
1493. “Four Papal Bulls were issued by the Vatican Hierarchy in 1493 which legally SANCTIONED COLUMBUS GENOCIDE CAMPAIGN AGAINST INDIGENOUS PEOPLES OF THE Americas. The Bull “InterCaetera” of May 3rd 1493 states, “the Catholic Faith and the Christian religion particularly in our times, shall be exalted and everwhere amplified and spread, (and) that the Salvation of souls may be provided for and barbarous nations subjugated and brought to the very true faith…” 1552.

Spain, the Arm of the Vatican warred with the United States. President Theodore Roosevelt said, “that was a splendid little war”. 1923. United States Supreme Court ruling Johnson v. mcIntosh 8 Wheat 543 (in 1823/1923) adopted the same principal of subjugation expressed in the InterCeteral Bull.

27 countries opinion about USA

“I am Greek and would like to talk about the American government and its “invasion” in other countries. Since 1945 the United States have been involved in the politics of more than 70 countries, mostly using the threat of “communistic conspiracy” in order to be free to invade any country (the same does the government now, using the terrorists’ threat). The reason this happens is that USA wants a safer world for the American companies, it wants to stop the development of any other society which could be an alternative to the capitalistic globalisation and to expand the political and economical empire of USA in order to always be the “great power”. This is not only my opinion about America, it is the opinion of 27 countries.

(The source of the following article is the daily newspaper “TA NEA” and it was written by reporter Kostas Betinakis, 29/9/01.)

1. China 1945-49; USA gets involved in the civil war, supporting Chang Kai Shek against Mao’s communists. Chang Kai Shek flees to Taiwan in 1949. USA recruits Japanese soldiers who were defeated during the war.

2. Italy, 1947-48: USA interferes with the Italian elections in order to stop the Communist party from being in the government. During the next years, they sponsor the smaller parties with millions of dollars, blocking the Communist party from forming a government.

3. Greece, 1947-49: USA replaces the UK who supported the fight against Communists. Right wing comes and starts the chasing of the Communists (this ends to a very bloody civil war).

4. Fillipines, 1945-53: American soldiers fight against left forces (Hooks), during the fights between the Hooks and the Japanese. After the end of the war, fighting against the Hooks goes on, until the regime of Ferdinand Marcos comes into power.

5. South Korea, 1945-53: After the war, USA suppresses the liberals and supports the convervatives who had collaborated with the Japanese invaders. In the war that followed against North Korea, the “volunteers” from other countries were all allies of USA.

6. Albania, 1949-53: American and English secret services tried unsuccessfully to overthrow the communistic government and to found a western government, made of collaborators of Italian fascists and German nazis.

7. Germany, 1950: CIA organizes propaganda and psychological war against East Germany, who is led to the building of the Berlin wall in 1961.

8. Iran 1953: Elected Prime minister Mosadek is overthrown byan American-English operation. His mist….(message cut off)

Aloha kaua e Frauline Linda,

Wanted to get this to you since you are 12′ (FRA) ahead of us out here in our corner of the world – “Paradise under the boot (jack) of the socialists”.

Sun., 23 Mar. ’03, will mark the anniversary of that fateful day in World history.

There was an unsuccessful attempt to stop the Nazis-anniv. of vote UNICH, Germany (AP) – Josef Felder, the last surviving legislator who voted against the 1933 law that entrenched Germany’s Nazi dictatorship, has died after a lengthy illness pos late 2002. He was 100. Felder, who was honored by Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder on his birthday two months ago as a “fighter for democracy and freedom,” died Saturday evening in his Munich apartment, the Bavarian branch of the Social Democratic party said Sunday. After joining the Social Democrats at age 20, Felder was first elected to the parliament in 1932. He was one of 94 legislators who voted on March 23, 1933 against the law ceding the Reichstag’s powers to Adolf Hitler’s Cabinet, sanctioning the Nazis’ totalitarian state. Felder described the mood of that session in a book to be published soon, titled “Why I said No.”

We must remember history lest we repeat it. Doesn’t the Bushwhacker resemble someone we know – the famous socialist? I see a PAX Americana (actually PAX UNITED STATES) coming down the pike.

How can a government be lead by a bush, a dick and a colin?

God bless and yours in liberty,

Roy

Subject: Stop the rise of American nationalism From: YREKABAKERY (MBUCKLEY12) To: (HWNWAHINE) DateTime: 01/03/2003 13:36:42

Interesting cartoon of David Kalakaua, who weakened the Kingdom with his compulsive gambling and alcoholism. The yacht “Lurline” in the background played a significant part in Hawaiian history. It was built for John D. Spreckels in 1883, and won the first Trans-Pac race from SF to Honolulu. Spreckels founded Spreckelsville on the Big Island, and tried for years to break into cane sugar (he was the owner of almost all beet sugar production around Monterey and in the San Jaoquin Valley). As I’m sure you know, cane sugar is far superior to beet sugar for baking, yet chemists have yet to identify any difference.

Aborad the yacht Lurline in 1902, Spreckels attempted to purchase the failed Starr Mills facility in Crockett, California, while living aboard the yacht Lurline in the Napa River estuary, for conversion to cane sugar refining, but Alexander & Baldwin beat him out, completing the deal in 1903. The C&H cooperative was founded in 1906 and took possession of the sugar refinery. Spreckels was instrumental in undermining the Kingdom, however.

There is a significant error in your cartoon website. The Lurline was not a schooner but a sloop, which shows clearly in the cartoon. The Lurline yacht was 75′ LOD, 21,2′ beam and 47 tons displacement. John D Spreckels loved it and kept it about 25 years. The teak decking was taken up and used to build the bar at Spenger’s fish restaurant in Berkeley, CA, and it is still in use there.

The second Lurline was a brigantine, mastered by none other than William Matson, later he wrecked the Selina at Hilo, and rescued a comely young passenger whom he subsequently married. Matson Lines also had three steamers named Lurline. The name Lurline is synonomous with travel to Hawaii, though it comes from a joke popular in San Francico at the time the yacht was launched.

Other sailing ships usd by Spreckels in his commerce with Hawaii were the CLAUS SPRECKELS, CONSUELO, W. H. DIMOND, ANNA, WILLIAM G. IRWIN, and the brigantine LURLINE, which later was mastered by Willian Matson, who also owned the EMMA CLAUDINA.

It is said that one day Matson was sailing his favorite, the brigantine Lurline, between Hawaii and San Francisco when he was becalmed, watched Spreckels’ steamer ALAMEDA from horizon to horizon, and never sailed again, preferring to compete with Spreckels’ Oceanic steamers head-to-head. Eventually, Matson won the competition.

Aloha from the Golden State.

**************************** THE MASTERS OF CAPITAL by John Moody (1919) Yale University “BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE The literature covering special phases of the development and growth of capitalized industry and “high finance” in the United States during the past half century is plentiful enough. Scores of volumes have been written on the Trusts, on particular industries, and special combinations of cpital. But no exhaustive study appears to have been made of the broad trend toward the concentration and control of industry and finance by Wall Street financiers, during the remarkable period culminating in the aggressive antitrust legislation afte the financial crash of 1907. Among the best popular books on the Standard Oil Trust may be mentioned: WEALTH AGAINST COMMON WEALTH by Henry Demarest Lloyd (1894); HISTORY OF THE STANDARD OIL TRUST, BY S.C.T. Dodd (1894); RISE AND PROGRESS OF THE STANDARD OIL COMPANY, BY Gilbert Holland Montague (1903); HISTORY OF THE STANDARD OIL COMPANY, by Ida M. Tarbell (1904). To supplement these books, bringing the facts relating to this great business aggregation down to later dates, reference should be made to government exhibits, such as the report of the United States Industrial Commission (1900 and 1902); the testimony in the Supreme Court suit for dissolution (1910 and 1911) and the report of the “Money Trust Investigation” made by the Committee on Banking and Currency of the House of Representatives in 1913. These latter are a real mine of information regarding the activities not only of Standard Oil magnates in business and banking fields, but of others as well during the preceding decade. The story of the Morgan banking house has never been full told, though the LIFE STORY OF J.P. MORGAN, BY Carl Hovey (1911), presents a fair outline. Consult also, FORTY YEARS OF AMERICAN FINANCE, BY Alexander D. Noyes (1909) which contains interesting chapters on the government financing undertaken by the firm. The facts of Edward H. Harriman’s remarkable career can be culled only from the current financial publications of the period. Government reports, such as the testimony in the Supreme Court suit for the dissolution of the Northern Securities Company (1904) and the report of the Committee on Banking and Currency, show the general activities of the Harriman financiers and their connections with Wall Street. The rise to power of the steel and iron magnates and the growth of allied industries have been presented to the public in various forms. A valuable but biased work is the INSIDE HISTORY OF THE CARNEGIE STEEL COMPANY, BY James H. Bridge (1903). THE ROMANCE OF STEEL, BY Herbern N. Casson (1907) is a very readable story. On the specific subject of Wall Street mechanism and finance, THE WORK OF WALL STREET, BY Sereno S. Pratt (1912), ad WALL STREET AND THE COUNTRY, by Charles A. Conant (1904), will be found interesting. THE TRUTH ABOUT THE TRUSTS, by John Moody (1904), is a statistical exhibit of capitalized industry and finance as it existed at the apex of the merger movement. On the general subject of industrial trusts and combinations scores of volumes have been written, some of value and many worthless. Among the informing, popular books of the past two decades may be mentioned: THE STORY OF LIFE INSURANCE by Burton J. Hendrick (1907); TRUSTS, OR INDUSTRIAL COMBINATIONS AND COALITIONS IN THE UNITED STATES, BY Ernst von Halle (1895); CORPORATION FINANCE, by Thomas L. Greene (1908); THE CONTROL OF TRUSTS, by John B. Clark (1901); TRUST FINANCE, by Edward Sherwood Meade (1903); THE TRUST PROBLEM, by Jeremiah W. Jenks (1900); and INDUSTRIAL COMBINATIONS AND TRUSTS, by William H. Stevens (1913). But to learn the full story of the great masters of capital of the last generation, one must depend chiefly on financial and investment periodicals. Chief among these are the COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL CHRONICLE, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, and the New York JOURNAL OF COMMERCE. For purely banking subjects, the BANKERS MAGAZINE is the best source of information. For full light on the subject of the control of life insurance funds by the powers of Wall Street, nothing better can be found than the report of the joint committee of the New York Legislature appointed to investigate life insurance companies (1906). The facts regarding the dissolution of the Standard Oil Trust and the American Tobacco Company are to be found in the testimony in the Supreme Court suits against those companies. The best popular description of the panic of 1907 is contained in Alexander D. Noyes’s FORTY YEARS OF AMERICAN FINANCE.”

A Personal Opposition with Land Ownership Interests and Oppositions from the Acting Liaison of Foreign Affairs, the Royal Families House of Nobles of the Hawaiian Kingdom (which did go “under ground” and exists)

Greetings,

On October 27, 2009, a Certificate applied for from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission site was approved through the Filing Help Desk – Josh Phone (266) 672-7640.

I have continued to Oppose Depleted Uranium and documented Oppositions countless time to you an agency which is Not Granted the Opportunity to Contaminate our families Private Properties, additionally it is purposeful that Opposition continue and remain on record due to the disregard of true Land Owners, and the fact that we are interested in maintaining the health, safety of all in the Hawaiian Islands/archipelago, even includes foreign citizens such as Americans and other foreigners.

Much research has been done, which shows that the Crown Lands Owners includes Kamehameha III – Kauikeouli’s adopted children are his heirs, the successors heirs are also part of my/our bloodlines.

See reference(s) below.

After intense, detailed history research, genealogy research, legal research, our Private Properties have been criminally claimed by Pirates, treasonous persons, conspirators against the Hawaiian Kingdom of whom descendants, Sovereigns, directly connected to the ownership of these Crown Lands exist. I, Amelia Gora, am one of the owners, and deny any relationship/blood lines of Jew Linda Lingle, “Joe Jap” Daniel Inouye, and have documented Senator Daniel Akaka as a direct descendant of Thomas Akaka who assisted in the dethronement of our Queen in 1893, etc.

The Premeditation, Piracies by the U.S., England, and the bankers is hereby documented.

The ownership of the Crown Lands of which the intended use of Depleted Uranium is Not Approved. Eviction notices for the military has been given to remove themselves from Makua, Schofield, Pohakuloa, is a real issue at hand.

Depleted Uranium is the cause of many people dying from cancers, DNA mutations, diabetes, etc. See links below.

$500 Trillion Dollars a year in gold coins for rents and leases retroactive since 1893 is also maintained, and the U.S., England, and the Morgan bankers/International bankers/Bank of England has been billed and this is a reminder of rents, leases owed to Kamehameha’s, Kamehameha III’s families, et. als.

Other Land Holdings being affected by Depleted Uranium/DU

And what of the other landowners such as the Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates who have assumed interest as if it was entirely theirs? Trustees, by the way, are not related to us, and if they claim to be, it can be proven that they descend from conspirators, treasonous persons, pirates documented.

I, Amelia Gora, am one of the descendants of Bernice Pauahi’s cousin named Kalola who has interest in the the KSBE Trust which began in 1884, or pre-dethronement of Queen Liliuokalani.

I, Amelia Gora, also descends from families who are on the Will of Bernice Pauahi, who by the way has been found to have been half white, which means that I as one of the representatives of our family(ies) and descending from Kalola am one of the heirs of Bernice Pauahi’s Hawaiian father and that part of the lands are also claimed.

I, Amelia Gora, descends from Kaaumoana, one of the heirs in the Bernice Pauahi Will who also was an adopted daughter of Kaeha/Kamakaeha/Makaeha/
Liliuokalani and finally known as Queen Liliuokalani. Kaaumoana and her descendants are the true Trustees of the Liliuokalani Trust/Queen Liliuokalani Trust which is currently held by thieves, scoundrels, criminal activists, perpetuating a lie and disregarding Queen Liliuokalani’s Will which documents that she did not sign a Trust Deed with Samuel Damon, et. als.

I, Amelia Gora, descend from Isaac Davis, John Young, British persons who married into the chiefly lines of Kamehameha and have the blood of his brothers and sisters, and who are the true owners of Pearl Harbor which the U.S. military criminally assumes – based on a fraud deed of 1876, criminally pours hundreds of thousands of gallons of nuclear waste into the Hawaiian archipelago.

To put it simply, I continue to Oppose all use of Depleted Uranium/DU on all of our Private Properties, and additionally, as one of our Royal Families House of Nobles I hereby add Opposition to support support the Private Property Claims as well, and maintain Opposition in behalf of our families, kanaka maoli, foreigners including Americans, and others living, residing, visiting the Hawaiian Kingdom (which did go “under ground” yet exists), a neutral, non violent, friendly nation in the middle of the Pacific Ocean being contaminated by a belligerent occupier, the U.S., a “colony of the Crown” of England, etc.

I continue to Oppose all use of Depleted Uranium/DU as one of the true trustees/acting trustees of Liliuokalani Trust/Queen Liliuokalani’s Trust, etc.

Opposing Depleted Uranium through genealogies, history revisited, legally and documenting genocide, etc.,

Sincerely,

Amelia Gora, a Royal person and Acting Liaison
of Foreign Affairs, a Representative of the Royal
Families House of Nobles, Hawaiian Kingdom

from Kaohi/Luwella Leonardi:

I’m getting tired of arguing the same argument. The military are applying for a permit to posses Depleted Uranium. To continue the use off in there live fireing at Makua and Schofield. There is no such thing as clean up!! Wake up- Kanaka! They has to be someone out there that know how to keep the Pacific Nuclear Free!!

I am tired of arguing or even hearing some asshole tell me to my face “Military needs to clean up their nuclear mess in the Pacific” how studpid one can get. Take time out and research ‘waste streaming’ there is no such thing as cleaning up nuclear waste. Are we all that stupid! Na Kanaka if the military is granted a License to posses and use Depleted Uranium in the Pacific, they plan to send the first Nuclear bomb from their arsenal to North Korea and Iran.

There is no Treaty Ban On Nuclear it expired! If these signatures are not on paper by April 10, 2010 and agreed upon we are in extreme danger. The U.S. Congress will not convene until 2011 the treaty will not appear until Congress and Russia’s Duma sign the agreement

Small peepee, locker peepee, hurt me..hurt me.. this is not a sports game this is real!!! This is not baseball, nor is this football practice–game over is permanent. We can’t go to the parking lot get in our cars and drive home and have cocoa and crakers and kiss our children goodnight. Once that stupid nuclear arsenal leave Hawaii, or Guam –shit’s going to hit our atmosphere. One that we cannot live in and have happy happy at the beach as once we know.

Stop the bombing and feel Nuclear Free Pacific today! Then take your position to the streets! If not be prepared to die! Bottom Line. Kaohi

Aloha Amelia,

Thanks for bringing this back up got diverted in local objectivity/abstract issues.

In 2001, I was contacted first by the Royal Order than by a women that just came from a conference. She and I went to Women’s Center to xerox the recent published book..I just found it two days ago!!! in my messy files. That night I attended a Waianae military meeting with the information/hard copy back in 2001. ISBN4-88517-301-9 C0036
“The Chugoku Shimbun” story and Photos by Alira Tashiro, Translation by Transnet Forward by Leuren Moret President, Scientists for Indigenous People. 2001
Here is the Foreword:

Foreword
I met Akira Tashiro last summer in Hiroshima, when I was invited by Gensuikin to speak about Yucca Mountain and high-level nuclear waste at the Plenary Session of the 2000 World Conference Against Atomic & Hydrogen bombs. The citizens of Hiroshima and Nagasaki live with the aftermath of the horrific power and annihilation of nuclear bombs dropped on a civilian population and the extreme cruelty of the lifelong effects of exposure to flash external gamma rays and internal low-level radiation from fallout. This reality has changed the live of all those who have visited Hiroshima and Nagasaki and learned not only about the hibakusha (survivors) of japan, but of those around the world in Kazakhstan, the Pacific Islanders, and the Western United States. Radiation respects no borders. It is a slow, silent global mutilator of all life.
In the 197’s I worked as an earth scientist at the Lawrence Berkeley Lab. There the transuranium elements were discovered for the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, and the use of depleted uranium (DU) on the battlefield was first discussed. Later I worked at the Lawrence Livermore Lab, where the design of nuclear weapons continues. Radiation and nuclear weapons continues. Radiation and nuclear weapons are seldom mentioned in a climate of secrecy and denial. Many scientists work in isolation and are only dimly aware of the larger project.
In the moment that I stood in the Hiroshima Peace Museum on the anniversary of the bombing looking up at “Little Boy,” I was overwhelmed as a scientist. I realized that engineering and technology had built devices, through the misapplication of science, that could destroy all life on Earth. I saw photos of women with vacant stares nursing dead babies. As a mother and giver of life I wondered how, without conscience, man could destroy 4.5 billion years of life evolving on this Earth. The unbelievably dangerous powers of nuclear weapons have been developed by divorcing science from ethics, a Western phenomenon.
The Chugoku Shimbun, Hiroshima’s newspaper, has published two award-winning series on exposure to radiation. The first book, EXPOSURE: Victims of Radiation Speak Out, is a powerful message about the detrimental effects that radioactive substances from nuclear testing and “peaceful uses” of nuclear energy have had on people and the environment. In this second book, Discounted Casualties, personal stories about DU reveal the unbelievable immorality and cruelty of this new radioactive weapon.
Radioactive waste from nuclear weapons development, mixed with highlevel waste from nuclear reactors, becomes a lethal cocktail in DU ammunition. In recent reports, the US Department of Energy has admitted that military reactor waste has been mixed with DU. The waste contains plutonium, uranium-236, neptunium and other isotopes thousands of times more radioactive than DU. Disposing of dangerous waste at a profit benefits US government agencies and the military industrial complex, while passing the liability for disposal and the biological and environmental damage to citizens around the world.
Tungsten is a biologically and environmentally safer alternative with greater density and penetrating power. DU bullets are pyrophoric and ignite on impact, producing a smoke that poisons life and travels great distances. The bullet fragments and dust left in the bodies of soldiers cause extended suffering, and cruel and inhumane deaths years after the war has ended. DU is radioactive. It is a toxic metal, and the toxicity is greatly increased when combined with chemicals. It disproportionately affects women and children.
DU munitions are illegal under international human rights and humanitarian law. Nevertheless, the US, the self-proclaimed “International Champion of Human Rights,” has used this inhumane weapon on the battlefield, exposing its own soldiers, its allies, civilian populations, and future generations. Du testing in the US, continues to expose unsuspecting citizens and the environment. Pilots at Fallon Naval Air Station in Nevada trained on nearby bombing and gunnery ranges for the Gulf War. Now, the “don’t look, don’t find policy” of the military is concealing the cause of a recent leukemia cluster among children in Fallon. Overseas, the use of radioactive trash in weapons has turned Gulf countries, the Balkans, Viegues Island, and Okinawa into dumpsites for the US government and the radiation industry. A single microscopic particle can cause a lethal disease. DU will continue to poison life from the dust and soils of the battlefields and testing grounds. In ten half-lives, or 45 billion years, the radioactivity will become an insignificant amount.
Which is worse, flash annihilation by nuclear explosions, or slow mutilation from low-level radiation, the result of radioactive contamination of the air, water and earth essential to life? Globally, we have been deceived about the health effects of radiation by bureaucratized governments informed by the military industrial complex and scientific power. In the past half-century, 1.3 billion people have been killed maimed, and diseased by nuclear weapons and nuclear power. Millions more will be killed, maimed and diseased unless the citizens of the world demand an end to the proliferation of nuclear weapons, nuclear power, nuclear waste, and the new radiological weapons.
As the bell tolls, we must honor and respect the hibakusha around the world, who are living reminders that we are pulling the rope of our own death knell. Let us thank the citizens of Japan. The Chugoku Shimbun, and Akira Tashiro, for making us aware of the most important issue of this century. And thanks to the veterans, whose stories make it clear that democracies, as well as living bodies, can develop malignancies.

I’m so heartbroken because Niihau has a super high rate of diabetes and we know why? If only we did not have a ‘war on drugs’ then Dr. Shintani could be giving his lectures alongside the successful “Waianae Diet”.

But, back to my point. Right offshore near Niihau their is a drift zone and the military and their little boy club countries dump nuclear waste into that drift zone. I learned this in the late 70s when the Nuclear Free Pacific was at it’s high.

As Leuren says, “DU causes diabetes”

My email was compromised and google won’t give it back.

Aloha Emile,

It’s been 4-months since I submitted my appeal so could you possibly share with me what the usual duration is on appeals to rulings made by the Atomic Licensing and Safety Board Judges? 4-months seems like an extraodinarily long appeal review process.

Du testing in the US, continues to expose unsuspecting citizens and the environment. Pilots at Fallon Naval Air Station in Nevada trained on nearby bombing and gunnery ranges for the Gulf War. Now, the “don’t look, don’t find policy” of the military is concealing the cause of a recent leukemia cluster among children in Fallon. Overseas, the use of radioactive trash in weapons has turned Gulf countries, the Balkans, Viegues Island, and Okinawa into dumpsites for the US government and the radiation industry. A single microscopic particle can cause a lethal disease. DU will continue to poison life from the dust and soils of the battlefields and testing grounds. In ten half-lives, or 45 billion years, the radioactivity will become an insignificant amount.
Which is worse, flash annihilation by nuclear explosions, or slow mutilation from low-level radiation, the result of radioactive contamination of the air, water and earth essential to life? Globally, we have been deceived about the health effects of radiation by bureaucratized governments informed by the military industrial complex and scientific power. In the past half-century, 1.3 billion people have been killed maimed, and diseased by nuclear weapons and nuclear power. Millions more will be killed, maimed and diseased unless the citizens of the world demand an end to the proliferation of nuclear weapons, nuclear power, nuclear waste, and the new radiological weapons.
As the bell tolls, we must honor and respect the hibakusha around the world, who are living reminders that we are pulling the rope of our own death knell. Let us thank the citizens of Japan. The Chugoku Shimbun, and Akira Tashiro, for making us aware of the most important issue of this century. And thanks to the veterans, whose stories make it clear that democracies, as well as living bodies, can develop malignancies.

I’m so heartbroken because Niihau has a super high rate of diabetes and we know why? If only we did not have a ‘war on drugs’ then Dr. Shintani could be giving his lectures alongside the successful “Waianae Diet”.

But, back to my point. Right offshore near Niihau their is a drift zone and the military and their little boy club countries dump nuclear waste into that drift zone. I learned this in the late 70s when the Nuclear Free Pacific was at it’s high.

As Leuren says, “DU causes diabetes”

My email was compromised and google won’t give it back.

Great report! While reading this, I almost could the Committee of Safety’s whispers of deceit. I felt I was back in Hawaii’s early 1900.

What a demonic system! You pay to get educated and as a educated party there is no one to vote for except those who educated you. I think this is one of Pavlof’s experiment.

Hawaii nei needs Puerto Rico as she need us. I guess “insular” was qualified as within 150 miles of CONUS.

I don’t much about the politics of Puerto Rico other Spain’s control.Keep Hawaii abreast and what we collectively do for Puerto Rico.

Aloha mai kākou!

It was last year when I picked up a small book on “Hawaiian history” at one of the shops at Kailua-Kona airport. It was written in easy style for mass distribution. In the Statehood section I read: “In 1959 the overwhelming majority of native Hawaiians happily opted for joining the greatest country in the world and becoming an essential part of our American nation. The State of Hawaii was formed….”

There were other lies in it too, but the fact is that most visitors from other countries will never find out about the truth and our struggle here if we don’t inform them. Therefore I have decided to spread the word internationally. Since I work with many translators around the world, I have had Queen Lili`uokalani’s Washington speech translated professionally into 16 languages and posted it on the internet. http://www.kanakamaolipower.org/history

. I have been sending the link to history teachers and newspaper editors in different countries and I get good feedback. The only reason I had not translated it into ‘ōlelo ‘ōiwi is because she presented this in English. Feel free to use the information and let non-English speaker contacts know about this important document of Hawaiian history.

While the Palolo Media Center and others are doing regular programs and presentations for a local audience, I feel that I should use my world-wide contacts to enlighten people there who were and are being mislead and misinformed by the American propaganda.

SUBHEAD: US military intelligence come out in numbers to witness prayer for Gulf Coast Oil Disaster.

Image above: Early stages of Salt Pond Beach “Hands across the Sands” vigil. All photos by Juan Wilson.

By Juan Wilson on 27 June 2010 –

Yesterday, June 26th, marked a worldwide prayer vigil in observance of the ongoing Gulf of Mexico BP oil disaster. When the event was planned, those interested in participating on Kauai had the option of joining hands at Hanalei Beach or Lydgate State Park.

My wife, Linda Pascatore, and I decided a few days before the event not to go because it would have meant driving at least halfway around the island and burning a couple of gallons of gas, to attend a prayer to save the planet from runaway petroleum. We were going to spend our morning gardening instead.

At the last minute we got a message from Diana Labedz that she had found a volunteer to add Salt Pond Beach Park, in Hanapepe on Kauai’s westside, to the list of participating locations. This was on the day before the event. We live in Hanapepe and decided to change plans and join the prayer for the planet.

The event was scheduled from 11am-12pm. We arrived on time and as we entered the beach parking lot we noticed a Kauai County Police car parked facing the approaching road (an unusual occurrence).

It was eleven and, being Kauai time, it seemed nobody had showed up yet. We walked around looking for who might be ‘da kine’ for planetary prayer… in other words we were looking for old hippie types. Linda spotted a few likely participants near the water’s edge at about 11:30 and went over to see who they were.

Image above: Sovereignty flag in foreground and ‘demonstrators’ right-back-ground.

Soon another one of our tribe showed up. He began setting up a rainbow striped Hawaiian sovereignty flag and some signs to mark our gathering place. His signs read:

“Take pride in your aina. Show it to the World. Hawaii is not America and it never will be.”

Within minutes two jumbo luxury SUV’s, gunmetal and mauve, pulled into the parking places right behind the flag. There were four young men in each. The rolled down the windows with the engines running. They pulled out cameras and other devices and began recoding and documenting the events. It seemed funny that they would even know we’d be there. Hardly anyone did.

Image above: Young military professionals in gunmetal SUV at Salt Pond Beach. Note cameras concealed in lap and cup holder.

I immediately grabbed my camera and approached the vehicles. As I shot a few pictures they began packing up their equipment. They seemed upset to be photographed. So much for undercover intelligence? I leaned in on the gunmetal SUV. The boys inside looked to be in their mid to late twenties. All wore jeans; most wore dark tees. I asked: “US military?”. I got a one word answer from the back seat: “Yes”. Another voice in the back. “Hey, no pictures!”.

Even though the eight of them outnumbered the participants on the beach, they seemed to get nervous and defensive after that. Within 20 seconds they made a decision to decamp. They stowed their recording gear. Windows were raised and both vehicles backed out and were quickly gone. They weren’t there at 12:30 when out numbers crested at about twenty.

Image above: The ‘local’ interpreter-scout zips up recording equipment sitting in mauve Lincoln Navigator.

I suppose the upcoming RIMPAC 2010 (operated out of the PMRF here on Kauai) is a good reason to have lots of young professional military on island guarding American interests and gathering intel. But do they need to burn a couple of gallons of gas in a couple of air-conditioned jumbo SUVs to check out a prayer vigil to save the Gulf of Mexico from petroleum? This was a gathering of peaceful people holding hands to pray and meditate at the beach. Why is our military conducting such domestic surveillance of US citizens?

As the biggest consumer of fossil fuels in the world, and the biggest customer of BP, and the biggest user of offshore gulf oil, they are just protecting their interests… and not ours.

Image above: Military team heads out of Salt Pond Park in Lincoln Navigator license plate KZW-794.

The story has not ended with the above. Just before 1:00 pm. I took down the wind sack, because I had to go somewhere, but planned to return in a couple of hours. Around 3:00 pm. I got a call from a friend that the ranger was taking pictures and removing the signs, because someone complained. They could not prevent the ranger to do this, so in about 30 minutes I went to Salt Pond Park and found the ranger Eric Rita. I asked him why he had removed the signs and if I could get them back. He told me that they were in violation of the sign ordinance of Kaua`i County. When I said that he had never removed any other signs from the park before, although there were other signs like birthday, anniversary, church group signs etc., his answer was that those are OK, because they are not advertising. When I challenged him what was advertising in these two sentences:”Take pride in your ‘āina and show it to the world! Kaua`i is not America and it never will be.” he said he could not answer that, but he got a radio order from his boss John Martin that someone complained and they demanded the removal of the signs from public view. I would have to go and see John Martin on Monday in Lihue in his office and claim my signs back.
In my assessment it is a clear-cut case of human rights violation, because this action was public education and the sign ordinance regulates only commercial signs. It clearly shows that the Empire is afraid of us: kānaka maoli and kānaka ē. It is interesting that someone found John Martin on his day off to report this case and he acted immediately redirecting his ranger to Salt Pond from a different location, then ordered him to drive and deliver the signs to Lihue immediately, while in the past when we reported restroom problems to John Martin’s office (urinal clogged up, door lock broken, etc.) it always took them more than a month to have it fixed even if fixing those things took less than 20 minutes.
After all day calling on Monday finally on Tuesday I could reach the manager of the Department of Parks. He was very pleasant and friendly and he assured me that once his ranger comes back with the signs that he had impounded last week I would be able to come to pick them up. This is what I did. I went to his office with a friend and John Martin did not even want to see us.

The signs were there at the receptionist and we could pick them up without any hassle.

On our way out one of the officers said. “Just don’t keep them in our parks!”

I responded smiling: “We won’t. We will keep them in OUR parks.” Case closed. Ain’t this freedom of speech?

Thanks for sharing on the forum, ‘enforcement’ is the only activity which is coming from ‘teenie bobpers’ on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in partnership with their granddaddies Atomic Energy Commission directed and guided by the Pentagon.

I’m in a pissy mood today because come Sept 2010 these three evils are going to legalize the use of nuclear in Hawaii a blanket of dark dangerous evil poison dust in hopes that it reaches Russia and so on in the Pacific water and atomosphere.

They are regulating danger– to mean safe, weak and low, so long as they-US Navy and their buddies get to play with this stuff and weaken and destroy all humanity from this time zone.

Letters to both judges from Kauai might make a difference:

Thanks for bringing this up.

The scam is in full swing at Lihue airport.
There is a presentation on this on Hoike Community television Channel 52 all month on Community Camera.

I had my letter (below) published on the subject in April 2010 in The Garden Island newspaper. The highlighted yellow was deleted by the editor.

János Keoni Samu

Let’s fly naked!

You really want to fly safe? Then this will be the solution. Is it unreasonable? Not more than the article “On full-body scanners” in the Editorial Roundup of TGI 4.1.2010. According to the article TSA has been moving at a snail’s pace installing them. But it is more interesting why and how these scanners became suddenly a necessity.

As you may remember there was an alleged terrorist plot on a flight to Detroit last Christmas, when a Muslim man allegedly smuggled onboard some explosives in his underwear, but an American hero wrestled him down preventing a disaster. So, this was just about three months ago. That’s when the American media started to promote the need for these full-body scanners for American airports. Interestingly, however, the article states that the money to pay for the scanners had been approved by more than a year ago, that is more than 7 months before the event that allegedly triggered the need for these scanners. Money from the federal stimulus fund that is meant to stimulate the economy.

The Department of Homeland Security announced that they would purchase 950 of these full body scanners, at $190.000 each, so this will be a $180,500,000 price tag to the tax payers. But let’s see what you get for your money.

According to the specifications of all three U.S. manufacturers these scanners are capable of taking full-photographic pictures of your body without clothing. Homeland Security experts tried to minimize the privacy concerns by saying that genitals and private areas would be smudged on the image the scanner operator can see. I would believe it if all travelers were of the same size, but the private parts of a seven-foot man and of your 12-year old daughter are not at the same height, thus the scanner operator would have to smudge those areas either with a joystick, a mouse or by maneuvering the height of the podium AFTER he has located the genitals on the image. But then what’s the point? He has already seen it all, plus he can press a button and take a full-photographic picture before the smudging. Isn’t he supposed to see whether you are hiding anything in your private areas? The smudge would defeat the purpose.

Oh, by the way, none of the manufacturers can guarantee the foolproof detection of explosives. Let’s get real! There are about 5000 civil-use airports in the U.S. If only 950 full-body scanners will be installed in the next two years (at least two per airport), 4500 U.S. airports remain unprotected. By the way, who are we afraid of – foreign terrorists coming here, or our countrymen traveling across the country or going overseas? These scanners will scan the latter. The pattern is familiar. Remember 9/11? Allegedly Saudi citizens committed the crime and the U.S. retaliated by attacking Iraq.

In this case the stimulus money appears to be stimulating fear only. There is a better way to save the U.S. economy. Let’s all fly naked! And we can sell all existing walk-through scanners too at a garage sale.

(Article posted by Kaohi on Maoliworld.com for information)

Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole (“Prince Cupid”)

Prince Kuhio was a descendant of four of Hawaii’s ancient royal families: the Oahu, Kauai, Maui and Hawaii.

Although Kuhio was not the ali’i of his family in the ancient sense of the word, in that he was not of the senior line, his royal descent was clear and direct.

His descent from the Oahu, Kauai and Maui families was through the famous king, Peleioholani, who died in 1779, and was succeeded by his son Kumahana and a grandson, Kaneoneo.

During the long reign of Peleioholani, Kaneoneo had ruled the family lands on the island of Kauai and had married Kamakahelei, the Kauai queen. Kaneoneo and Kamakahelei had two
daughters, Kapuaamohu being the eldest.

The contemporary of Peleioholani on the island of Maui was a great king named Kekaulike who had so many wives and highborn children that he became known as the father of kings.

Kekaulike’s most famous son was Kahekili, the king of Maui who almost succeeded in conquering all the islands.

Amelia Gora’s Note: the use of the word “conquering” is one to watch for……this is a U.S. word for the purposes of their intent to “conquer”…………in reality, conflicts occurred between
family members. Kahekili is not an ancestor of Kuhio and Kawananakoa.

Kekauliki’s second most famous son Kaeokulani, born to him by his wife Kepoowaikumailani, a high chiefess of the combined Keawe and Maui royal lines.

This brilliant son, Kaeokulani, was the loyal adherent of his brother Kahekili throughout his life and was general of Kahekili’s successful armies.

Amelia Gora’s notes: “the brilliant son, Kaeokulani………….general of Kahekili’s successful armies” used by the haole to undermine the leader.

About the year 1778, Kamakahelei, Queen of Kauai, discarded her husband Kaneoneo and married Kaeokulani. The couple had a son whom we know in history as Kaumualii.

Amelia Gora’s notes: “discarded her husband” when the reality is that the alii had multiple marriages.

To preserve the purity of the blood line, Kaumualii took his half sister Kapuuamohu to wife.

Kaumualii, the last independent king of Kauai, and his sister wife, Kapuuamohu, became the parents of two kapumoe children: the high Chiefess Kekaulike Kinoiki and the High Chief Kealiiahonui.

Amelia Gora’s notes: In the great tradeoff as I call it, Kamehameha gave his wife Namahana, the sister of his other wives Kaahumanu, and Kaheiheimalie to Kaumualii. That marriage resulted
in the following children:

1) Haupu/Kahekili

2) Kuheleaumoku

3) Kahai

4) Kanekoa

5) Kaulia

Also note that Humehume/George Humehume was another child…..and Kahinu (w).

In these two niaupio children were combined the sacred blood lines of Oahu, Kauai and Maui royal lines.

As everyone knows, the High Chief Kealiiahonui was taken by Kaahumanu for a husband at the same time she married his father, King Kaumualii.

Amelia Gora’s notes: Kaumualii and Kealliahonui married Debora Kapule, who was a child of Haupu/Kahekili. In other words, Debora Kapule married her grandfather, her uncle, and was really
Kaahumanu’s grandniece because of her sister Namahana being her
grandmother.

The High Chiefess Kekaulike Kinoiki was married to the High Chief Kuhio Kalanianaole of Hilo.

Prince Johah Kuhio Kalanianaole

Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole, a desscendent of Hawaii’s ancient royal families, was born at Hoai, Kualu in the Koloa district on the island of Kauai on March 26, 1871, the youngest son of
Kauai’s High Chief David Kahalepouli Piikoi and Princes Kinoiki
Kekaulike. His great-grandfather, Kaumualii, had been the last king of
Kauai. The Prince’s birthplace was a grass house in this ancient
fishing village. Normally, however, the Piikoi family resided on Oahu.

Amelia Gora’s notes: a generation appears to be skipped here…..The second Kinoiki was claimed to be Mele Kinoiki married to Davida H. Piikoi the parents of Kuhio, Kawananakoa, and
Edward.

“The High Chiefess Kekaulike Kinoiki was married to the High Chief Kuhio Kalanianaole of Hilo.”

Kapiolani/Queen Kapiolani; Kinoiki; and
Kapooloku/Kapoolohu/Poomaikelani were claimed to be part of Kinoiki –
Kuhio lines.

The family consisted of three boys. Their mother and father died when they were young and they were adopted by their aunt, Kapiolani, who was their mother’s sister and the wife of King
Kalakaua. In the course of time each brother dropped his surname
Piikoi, taking his middle name as a surname.

When King Kalakaua and Queen Kapiolani ascended their thrones in 1874, the children were already members of the royal household as the queen’s nephews and, later, foster sons. One of the
highlights of their youth was the coronation ceremony of Kalakaua and
Kapiolani, in which they participated as immediate members of the
family. They were made princes by royal decree when Kuhio was thirteen.

Amelia Gora’s Notes: note the inconsistency in the claims that the three boys “were adopted by their aunt”, then in the “royal household as the queen’s nephews and later, foster sons.” The
following from
http://www.hawaiiforvisitors.com/monarchy/prince-david-kawananakoa.htm
appears accurate:

Prince David Kawananakoa

Articles and information about
Prince David Kawananakoa of Hawaii.

Prince David Kawananakoa
Prince David Kawananakoa

Prince David Kawananakoa

Born: February 19, 1868

Died: June 2, 1908

Full Name: David Laamea Kahalepouli Kawananakoa Piikoi

He was declared heir to the throne of the Kingdom
of Hawaii when Princess Victoria Kaiulani, to whom
he as engaged, died.

He was the newphew of Queen Julia Kapiolani,
who was married to King David Kalakaua.

In 1902 he married Abigail Wahiikaahuula
Campbell, who assumed the title of princess.

Prince David acknowledged paternity of a son, Prince
Edward Kawananakoa, and a daughter,
Princess Lydia, who was the mother of Princess Abigail Kinoike
Kekaulike Kawananakoa.

He declared that the oldest child of his wife,
Abigail Kapiolani Kawananakoa, was not his,
and he forced his wife’s mother to adopt the child.
But many people consider Abigail to have been
legitimate, and therefore that she continues
the true line of succession, which is now
headed by her grandson, Prince Quentin Kawananakoa.

The boys attended private schools in Honolulu, first St. Alban’s College, now Iolani School, and then Punahou School. It was at St. Alban’s that the nickname “Prince Cupid” was first given
to the roly-poly Prince by his French school teacher, Pierre Jones.
Kuhio was then a fat little fellow whose eyes twinkled merrily and upon
whose lips there was a perpetual smile. The French teacher said: “He
is so cute, just like the pictures of the little cupids.” This
affectionate nickname stayed with him throughout his lifetime. Even in
Washington he was known as “Prince Cupid.” He didn’t seem to mind the
name, although he never referred to it himeself.

At Punahou Kuhio was noted for his ability as an athlete. In fact, throughout his life he was considered an all-round sportsman. He took part in all athletic sports and excelled in rowing
and football. He loved to participate in rowing regattas off the beach
at Waikiki. Running and bicycling were other school activities that he
enjoyed. Born to a great love of the sea, as are most Hawaiians, he was
an expert surf rider and spear fisherman.

The Prince was skilled in the ancient Hawaiian form of wrestling known as “lua.” In his youth he was taught 250 “holds”, which he never forgot.

He was an expert horseman and there was nothing he enjoyed more keenly than going with the cowboys after wild cattle and horses on the rugged slopes of Mauna Kea, or spearing wild boars from
the back of a horse. He was an excellent polo player and was fond of
yachting and game fishing. Good marksmanship with either rifle or
shotgun made him a welcome member of shooting Parties. Golf was a
favorite pastime.

From Punahou the princes were sent to St. Matthew’s School at San Mateo, California. One of the brothers, Prince Edward, died before graduating. After finishing their schooling the other two
prices, David and Kuhio, were sent by King Kalakaua to the Royal
Agricultural College in Cirencester, England (during the years 1890 and
1891). In addition to studying agriculture, the princes also took
courses in business education.

Amelia Gora’s Note: Prince Edward was claimed to have been a hanai child of Kapooloku/Kapoolohu/Princess Poomaikelani. With this claim, his heirs/brothers Kuhio, and Kawananakoa would be
able to claim the lands and assets belonging
Kapooloku/Kapoolohu/Princess Poomaikelani’s descendants/heirs.

King Kalakaua’s purpose in educating the princes at the best schools and in England was to prepare them to hold high offices in the kingdom or to wear the crown. For this reason, he placed them in clerical work in different government offices during vacations and between schools.

Upon his return from England, Prince Kuhio received a position in the Ministry of the Interior and the Custom service. He worked very hard and showed a strong aptitude for public affairs.

In 1891 King Kalakaua died and his sister Liliuokalani became queen. Prince Kuhio was to be in the line of succession to the crown. But her reign lasted a little less than two years. In 1893 a revolution deposed the queen, overthrew the monarchy, and set up the Republic of Hawaii. The Prince was then twenty-one years of age. The career for which he had been trained was gone. Only by some miracle would he ever become king of the Hawaiian Islands.

Prince Kuhio was naturally a staunch supporter of his aunt, Queen Liliuokalani. He wanted to see her returned to her throne and joined with a group of revolutionaries who tried to overturn the republic and restore the monarchy. He was active in raising money with which to buy weapons on the mainland but the plot was discovered. Kuhio was arrested and charged with treason. He was found guilty by a military commission and served about a year as a political prisoner. He evidently did not suffer a great deal as throughout his later life he delighted in telling yarns about his months in prison.

Amelia Gora’s notes: Kuhio (and his brother Kawananakoa) did try to declare Queen Liliuokalani incompetent.

Queen Liliuokalani was not their aunt. Queen Liliuokalani came from another genealogy line. She was the sister of King David Kalakaua who mas married to Kuhio and Kawananakoa’s aunt named Kapiolani.

His release and pardon came on the same day in 1895 that the republic released Queen Liliuokalani from her imprisonment. A year later, on October 8, 1896, he married Elizabeth Kahanu Kaauwai, Daughter of a chief of Maui. She had visited him daily while he was in prison, bringing him good things to eat whenever possible.

Amelia Gora’s Notes: Elizabeth Kahanu Kaauwai went on to marry Dr. Woods. Her descendants along with other Hawaiian families moved to Aetearoa/New Zealand for safety from the genocide activists in the Hawaiian Islands.

Many of our Hawaiian people physically hid, or changed their names to hide from the genocide activists in Hawaii, the murderers, the scoundrels, the thieves who moved to dethrone our Queen, assume lands belonging to the Royall families then and today.

The young couple made a trip around the world in 1899, seemingly with the intent of settling in another country. They visited all of the cities of Europe and went to Africa where the Prince shot many animals, the heads of which were sent back as trophies for his home in Waikiki. They investigated the diamond mining business in South Africa, but decided not to invest in it. They returned to the islands in 1901.

Congress, in April, 1900 had passed the Organic Act which established a territorial form of government in Hawaii and which provided that the Constitution and laws of the United States had the same force and effect in the territory as elsewhere in America. It was probably this that brought the Prince back to Hawaii. He became a member of the Republican Party and a loyal supporter of the United States. Because he was one of their own alii, the Hawaiian people trusted and followed him.

Amelia Gora’s notes: The Organic Act of 1900 was set up by a pirate entity which was neither de facto nor de jure, set up with the help of the U.S. Congress, Presidents who premeditated the criminal assumption of a neutral, non violent nation, and supported by England, and the Morgan/International bankers/Bank of England bankers.

The Organic Act of 1900 was set up for those who were aligned with the Americans. Those who were subjects of the Hawaiian Kingdom were seen as less than Americans, and slaves status.

§ 4. Citizenship.

That all persons who were citizens of the Republic of Hawaii on August twelfth, eighteen hundred and ninety-eight, are hereby declared to be citizens of the United States and citizens of the Territory of Hawaii.

And all citizens of the United States resident in the Hawaiian Islands who were resident there on or since August twelfth, eighteen hundred and ninety-eight and all the citizens of the United States who shall hereafter reside in the Territory of Hawaii for one year shall be citizens of the Territory of Hawaii.

Historical note. – This section was supplemented by the Act of July 2, 1932, 47 Stat. 571, amended by the Act of July 1, 1940, 54 Stat. 707, providing that for purposes of the Act of Sept. 22, 1922, 46 Stat. 1511, women born in Hawaii prior to June 14, 1900, were deemed U.S. citizens at birth. But the Act of Sept. 22, 1922 was repealed by the Act of Oct. 14, 1940, 54 Stat. 1137, which in turn was repealed by the Act of June 27, 1952, 66 Stat. 166 (the McCarran-Walter Act), and the present provisions are contained in 8 U.S.C. § 1435(a).

Under art. 17, § 1, of the Const. of 1894 (adapted from the 14th Am. of the U.S. Const.) all persons born or naturalized in the Hawaiian islands and subject to the jurisdiction of the Republic of Hawaii were citizens thereof. Between 1842 and 1892, 731 Chinese persons and three Japanese persons were naturalized in Hawaii.

The secretary of Hawaii may issue to persons born in Hawaii certificates of Hawaiian birth, which are prima facie evidence.

See §§ 338-41 to 44. See also former law: L. 1905, c. 64; am. L. 1907, c. 79; rep. L. 1909, c. 15; R.L. 1915, p. 1487; R.L. 1925, c. 21; R.L. 1935, c. 247. See also §§ 100 and 101 of the Organic Act. Also see the note to Joint Resolution of annexation, RLH 1955, page 13.

CASE NOTES

Citizenship extended to persons born in Hawaiian Islands. – A person born in the Hawaiian Islands of British parents domiciled in this country is subject to the jurisdiction of this country and is a Hawaiian subject or citizen. In re Macfarlane, 11 Haw. 166 (1897).

The framers of the Act of Congress providing a government for the Territory of Hawaii approved April 30, 1900, intended to refer to the geographical limits of the Hawaiian Islands rather than to any political conditions existing therein; and that the Hawaiian and American citizenship was to be extended to all persons born in the Islands, excepting only those born of persons engaged in the diplomatic service of foreign governments, such as ministers and ambassadors, whose residence by a fiction of public law is regarded as the place of their own country. United States v. Sai, 1 U.S.D.C. Haw. 118 (1901).

The fact that two Chinese persons were born in the Hawaiian Islands while the same was a monarchy known as the Kingdom of Hawaii did not deprive them of their status as American citizens, it being proven that they were born in the Hawaiian Islands, sons of a domiciled Chinese laborer, in view of the provisions of Art. 17, § 1, of the Constitution of the Republic of Hawaii, and of the provisions of this section of the Act of Congress, approved April 30, 1900, to provide a government for the Territory of Hawaii, that all persons who were citizens of the Republic of Hawaii on August 12, 1898, were declared to be citizens of the United States and citizens of the Territory of Hawaii. United States v. Sai, 1 U.S.D.C. Haw. 118 (1901).

Naturalization. – The circuit courts of the Territory had power to naturalize. Territory of Haw. v. Kaizo, 17 Haw. 295, aff ‘d, 18 Haw. 28 (1906), aff ‘d, 211 U.S. 146, 29 S. Ct. 41, 53 L. Ed. 125 (1908).

Hawaiian citizenship by naturalization did not extend to the nonresident minor children of the persons so naturalized, nor were such children, while still nonresident, made citizens of the United States by the provision contained in this section. In re Ko, 3 U.S.D.C. Haw. 623 (1910).

Deportation proceedings. – See United States v. Yong, 1 U.S.D.C. Haw. 104 (1901).

Cited in In re Loucks, 13 Haw. 17 (1900); Ex parte Ah Oi, 13 Haw. 534 (1901); In re Sai, 1 U.S.D.C. Haw. 234 (1902); United States v. Dang Mew Wan Lum, 88 F.2d 88 (9th Cir. 1937); United States v. Rodiek, 117 F.2d 588 (2nd Cir. 1941); Wong Kam Wo v. Dulles, 236 F.2d 622 (9th Cir. 1956).

Amelia Gora’s notes: The Organic Act of 1900 did not include those who maintained they were the subjects of the de jure government, the Hawaiian Kingdom. It is not legal to proclaim citizens/subjects of another nation part of a belligerent, premeditating government which broke the Friendship Treaty with the Hawaiian Kingdom, breached the Law of Nations, and claim citizens to be theirs. Continued criminal works by Pirates operating with the “color of law” continued for the purposes of securing or validating the move to “protect the lives and safety of their own” rules which further validates the move of having military there to protect their own citizens.

Basically, those maintaining their subject status were viewed as those with “less than status” likened to Slaves, disregarding the fact that the Hawaiian Kingdom passed the anti-slavery laws in 1852 which was copied by the U.S. who passed the law after U.S. President Lincoln’s assassination in 1865 or 13 years later.

The Hawaiian Kingdom/Hawaiian Islands/Hawaiian archipelago has been and currently is with the ongoing status of having U.S. belligerent occupiers assuming/criminally assuming/at War with a neutral, non-violent people maintaining a neutral, non-violent nation which did go “under ground” since 1893.

The criminal maneuvers of such a criminal cause due to bankruptcy, included a concerted effort by many during the period. The use of various agents including former American Civil War generals; conspirators/treasonous persons/operatives such as Americans in the Hawaiian Kingdom government; plantation operators; American businessmen; paid off Hawaiians/ kanaka maoli such as Thomas Akaka, ancestor of Daniel Akaka who currently pushes the Akaka Bill claiming Federal recognition when the intent is to have a final criminal assumption of all private properties, Alii properties, assets to the bankrupt, Terrorist nation the U.S. since premeditating assuming the Hawaiian Kingdom since 1893, Church participants (United Church of Christ, Roman Catholic Church, et. als.), Masons/Freemasons, etc.

Kuhio and Kawananakoa were Masons/Freemasons members/ partners in crime, terrorists, treasonous persons in the Hawaiian Kingdom. They were part of the Masons/Freemasons who were set up to break down Monarchy governments worldwide.

They were part of the kanaka maoli who were paid $50-$500 to assist with the wrongful dethronement of our Queen Liliuokalani, our Alii families, and our kanaka maoli.

The “purported Constitution” which was claimed to have been the one that Queen Liliuokalani signed had included the Princes Kuhio and Kawananakoa as the claimed successors. This appears to have been a set up, as with the set up by the 1892 or approximately seven (7) months previous attempt to dethrone our Queen in 1892 by Robert Wilcox and Volney Ashford.

American eyes were watching the outcome of the sentence given to the two. As expected by the Americans, Queen Liliuokalani did not sentence her cousin Robert Wilcox.

CHARGES AGAINST WILCOX; Hawaiian Delegate in Congress Accused of Grave Crimes. LETTERS TO FILIPINO … [PDF]

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 — A petition containing charges against Robert W. Wilcox, the Hawaiian Delegate in the House of Representatives, was submitted, to-day to the House Committee on Elections No. 1, which has other petitions against Wilcox before it. The c…
February 2, 1901 – Article

Robert Wilcox was murdered according to his family member Mrs. Myrtle Schumann. Autopsy showed that he had six or more cuts in his intestines from glass given to him in his drink(s) at a party with genocide activists.

It appears that Robert Wilcox was used to test the outcome of dethroning his cousin, and test the outcome of how Hawaiians viewed Wilcox moves and whether they would be moved to follow him. In other words, it appears Wilcox was a paid /U.S. paid spy and against the Queen’s maintaining a neutral, non-violent nation, and Wilcox sought to move into a warring situation which would lead our friendly, neutral nation into a warring nation which would be warred with by the belligerent occupier.

At the convention of the Republican Party held in Honolulu 1902, Prince Kuhio was persuaded to accept the party’s nomination as a delegate to Congress.

When Prince Kuhio first entered public life as a candidate he showed natural ability to speak in his own language. His English, however, was not so good. But, as the years rolled by, he became a fluent speaker in both English and Hawaiian. He was a great political campaigner. When he arose to address his audiences, he began by greeting them in the soft, mellow longdrawn out “Aloha, aloha, kamaaina.”

He was successful in his first bid for election and many others and served as Hawaii’s delegate to Congress from 1903 to 1921. His greatest asset, both with the Hawaiians and with the haole voters, was his keen wit and ready good humor. He was also well-liked by his fellow-legislators in Wahsington, even those who at times opposed his views. He never presented or advocated measures which he could not wholeheartedly support, but if he believed that something would be good for the Hawaiian people he worked tirelessly for it. He had sincerity, enthusiasm and the courage to stand up for his convictions. He commanded universal respect.

Among the outstanding achievements of Prince Kuhio in his twenty years in Congress were the following:

(1) Kalaupapa Leper Settlement – He was able to keep this a territorial institution and to secure a federal appropriation to build an experimental hospital for the treatment of leprosy.

(2) County government – He obtained an amendment to the Organic Act in 1905 which authorized the creation of county governments with elected officials.

Amelia Gora’s notes: Kuhio accommodated building an American government for the entity Provisional government and was treasonous, conspirator, Pirate, genocide activist of Queen Liliuokalani, her subjects, our Alii families, etc.

(3) Pearl Harbor – The development of Pearl Harbor was an objective Prince Kuhio worked for at all times in Washington. He obtained millions of dollars for it and for the many army installations on Oahu. He served on the Military Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives, although, since he was merely a delegate instead of an elected representative, he did not have a vote.

Amelia Gora’s notes: Kuhio perpetuated the frauds of the claims to Pearl Harbor which was based on a Fraud deed of King David Kalakaua. Kalakaua claimed to deed interest of Mataio Kekuanaoa and Grace Kamaikui 8-9 years AFTER they both died.

Kuhio obtained interest in Kalakaua’s Estate only through Queen Liliuokalani’s claimed trustee named Lydia Aholo married to Samuel Kamakaia.

Lydia Aholo was not a descendant of Queen Liliuokalani’s trustee but an adopted daughter’s daughter who was not entitled to transfer interests or claimed interests belonging to descendants of the assigned trustee(s). There were many Trustee’s adopted children, and there are True trustees descendants existing today. In other words, the claims to Queen Liliuokalani’s lands, monies, were not conveyed by proper persons.

Additionally, Prince Kuhio (and brother Kawananakoa) received a deed from Queen Kapiolani which she asked that they file it after she died. They set off to file it immediately. Queen Kapiolani is on record opposing their moves. It appears she questioned their allegiance to the Hawaiian Kingdom and found out through their actions.

Queen Kapiolani was a hanai/adopted child of my great grandfather Luakini/Kaluakini and both Prince Kuhio and Kawananakoa wrongfully claimed they were the hanai/adopted children of Kapiolani………..which also means that they are riding on our families claims to lands, resources, etc. I, Amelia Gora, deny their claims on these genealogy lines.

Additionally, they became heirs to their brother Edward who was the claimed hanai/adopted child of my great great grandmother Kapooloku/Abigail Kapooloku/Poomaikelani/Princess Poomaikelani, which also means they are riding on our families claims to lands, resources, etc. I, Amelia Gora, deny their claims on these genealogy lines.

There are many other areas on our families genealogies that show criminal malfeasance, criminal issues, criminal conversions, piracies, criminal activities, and the above shows a few of the issues which remains unresolved. Ramifications are ongoing.

(4) Congressional visits to the islands – Knowing how little the mainlanders knew about Hawaii, the Prince found that the best way to make friends for the Hawaiian cause was to persuade the congressmen to visit the islands. He brought out congressional parties in 1907, 1909, 1915 and 1917 and entertained them lavishly at great luaus.

Amelia Gora’s notes: Kuhio took an out of court settlement to the claims over Queen Liliuokalani’s will/Trust. She had denied that she signed a Trust Deed with the Americans. The settlement was the Waikiki home of Queen Liliuokalani and to not be the head of the Hawaiian Kingdom.

Reference: Archives, Circuit Court Cases, Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii

(5) Harbors – Through Prince Kuhio’s efforts frunds were secured for improvements to the harbors at Honoluu, Hilo, Kahului and Nawiliwili.

(6) Hawaiian Homestead Act – In 1910 he obtained an amendment to the Organic Act which opened public lands to homesteading. This, however, did not protect the Hawaiians so the Prince began agitation to set up special homesteading lands for Hawaiians only.

Amelia Gora’s Notes: Treasonous persons are not owners of the Crown Lands. Kuhio and Kawananakoa were not descendants/ heirs of Kamehameha and not entitled to convey. The Crown Lands were for heirs and successors, not Pirates, Treasonous, Criminal deviants, Conspirators, those who perpetuate Frauds, etc.

(7) Hawaii National Park – Prince Kuhio has been called the “Father of Hawaii National Park” becuase it was he who obtained passage of the bill enabling the Interior Department to take over a large area of the Kilauea volcano in 1916 for development as a national park.

Amelia Gora’s Notes: Treasonous persons are not owners of the Crown Lands. Kuhio and Kawananakoa were not descendants/ heirs of Kamehameha and not entitled to convey. The Crown Lands were for heirs and successors, not Pirates, Treasonous, Criminal deviants, Conspirators, those who perpetuate Frauds, etc.

(8) Rehabilitation Act – One of the greatest sorrows in the life of Prince Kuhio was the unmistakable decline in the Hawaiian race during his lifetime. The number of full-blooded Hawaiians began its fatal decrease long before his birth, but the tendency was so marked that it showed up from month to month during his lifetime. In 1896 there were over 30,000 of his race in the islands. at the time of his death in 1922 there were a scant 20,000. This seemed to indicate that within half a century the Hawaiians would be but a memory in the history of Hawaii.

Prince Kuhio felt that the solution lay in getting the Hawaiians away from the cities and back to the land. His idea was to turn over certain government-owned lands to the Hawaiians and endeavor to induce them to become a race of producers once again.

The Rehabilitation act, better known as the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act, was his greatest achevement and it took years of fighting. The battle was not won until 1921. Prince Kuhio then returned home. He hoped to be appointed governor but President harding’s choice for the post was Wallace Farrignton. The Prince did not perit his disappointment to show and he worked closely with the governor, who became his good friend. He was appointed a member of the Hawaiian Homes Commission, which was set up to carry out the provisions of the Rehabilitation Act.

Amelia Gora’s Notes: Treasonous persons are not owners of the Crown Lands. Kuhio and Kawananakoa were not descendants/ heirs of Kamehameha and not entitled to convey. The Crown Lands were for heirs and successors, not Pirates, Treasonous, Criminal deviants, Conspirators, those who perpetuate Frauds, etc.

Statehood for Hawaii was not achieved during his lifetime but on February 11, 1919 Prince Kuhio introduced a bill in Congress, asking that Hawaii be admitted to the United States. The first world war had just ended and the Prince stated that the war had proved that his people had become Americanized. the bill was refered to a committee for study and nothing further was done with it. The next year the delegate introduced another bill. These were the first two of a long succession of statehood bills. Even in Hawaii there was little support for these bills and they were easily overlooked by congress.

In addition to his other accomplishments, Prince Kuhio did all that he could to restore the Hawaiians’ pride in their race and their respect for its past achievements. He believed in democracy and self-government and urged his people to take pride in their American citizenship and to adjust to changing conditions. He was outspoken in telling the Hawaiians that work was their only salvation – hard work that would enable them to compete with the other races.

In 1903, the Prince organized the Order of Kamehameha, a society devoted to the perpetuation of the memory of Kamehameha the Great. He officiated at the first observance of Kamehameha Day held in 1904 in front of the statue of the king in Honolulu. The organization of the Order of Kamehameha set the pattern for the rivival of many of the old Hawaiian societies. Kuhio also organized the groups known as The Chiefs of Hawaii and the Hawaiian Civic Club.

Prince Kuhio died of heart disease at his Waikiki Beach home on January 7, 1922 at the age of fifty and was given the last state funeral held in Hawaii for an alii. He was buried at the royal mausoleum in Nuuanu Valley. Royalty in the Hawaiian Islands died with him. He was the last Hawaiian who by right of blood and designation could have claimed the crown.

As a monument to Kuhio’s memory his birthplace on Kauai was made into a park and a statue of him, the work of sculptor Jacob Rosenstein, placed there on a simple rock pedestal. The calm, appealing face looks out to the sea which he loved. engraved on the bronze plaque is the name of the Prince followed by the phrase, “Ke Alii Makaainana” (The Citizen Prince). The bust was unveiled on June 17, 1928 amid a gathering of noted people from all over the islands.

The area in which Kuhio’s home, Pua Leilani (Flower from the wreath of Heaven) was located is now Kuhio Park, in the Waikiki area of Honolulu. A bronze plaque was placed there in 1940 by Hawaiians devoted to the memory of their beloved leader.

It bears the words:

“Prince by the grace of God.

Statesman by accomplishment.

Delegate to Congress by popular choice.

Father of the Hawaiian Rehabilitation Act.

Dedicated by his People”

In 1949 the legislature designated March 26 as a territorial holiday to be known as Kuhio Day. It is observed with school programs and special ceremonies sponsored by Hawaiian societies as the royal mausoleum.

Kuhio’s royal lineage was direct.

SUMMARY

Amelia Gora’s Notes: Treasonous persons are not owners of the Crown Lands. Kuhio and Kawananakoa were not descendants/ heirs of Kamehameha and not entitled to convey. The Crown Lands were for heirs and successors, not Pirates, Treasonous, Criminal deviants, Conspirators, those who perpetuate Frauds, etc.

Kuhio and Kawananakoa were merely used and “NIGGERS” for U.S. Congress, and U.S. Presidents who premeditated the move to assume lands, assets of a neutral, non violent, friendly nation and secure validation by conspiring kanaka maoli such as Kuhio and Kawananakoa whose families perpetuate the criminal activities even today.

Amelia,

Sorry to give you so much work, but I believe this is important to question the Native Hawaiian covenant and all their activities with the military.

My email phonicsworks@gmail.com was compromised, all is lost. Also too, I was waiting for your posting to contradict what I wrote. I read this stuff in 1992.. and questioned the validity ever since.

Today, I see crazies out there in high places hanging on everyword. Where is independent thinking? Where is researching? and more scary where is family and not clones of two authors that were and have manipulated our thinking for too long. But, I didn’t question although I feel we need to question the native Hawaiian human conditioning that’s been going on too long and now the Akaka Bill is a duplicate of the Rehabilitation Act only that it’s adding in a ‘military’ component. I hope you read this! Keep posting sudden crush need to keep hearing it! Much aloha

hi Kaohi!

Have been preparing claims of our ancestors for the AG/attorney general’s office………we have multiple claims and are documented heirs in the Will of Bernice Pauahi, Ruth Keelikolani, Queen Liliuokalani, et. als. The AG is the overseer of the Trusts…..if anyone feels they are part of the Alii lines, then prepare your genealogies too…………..additionally, am continuing to support our kanaka maoli who wish to malama our families interests as well.

The “yarns”, lies promoted over time was set in place to obstruct truth, gray up the truth.

The Kawananakoa’s are simply not part of King Kalakaua’s bloodlines………..connected thru the brotherhood of Masons/Freemasons.

The hanai situation was challenged even by the KSBE/Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates attorneys in the past………..

Kamehameha had 10+ documented wives.
Kamehameha II had 8 documented wives.
Kamehameha III had 4 documented wives. He had several hanai children and several stepchildren documented. Recently someone claimed direct, yet, no documentation proves it.
Kamehameha IV had 1 documented wife.
Kamehameha V was unmarried.
King Lunalilo was unmarried.
King David Kalakaua had 2 documented wives. He had 2 documented children and 3 adopted children, of which the Kawananakoa’s are NOT a part of.
Queen Liliuokalani had 4 documented husbands.
Princess Likelike had 1 documented husband and 1 documented child. The claimed descendants of Cleghorn are NOT related to the Kalakaua, Liliuokalani lines. They are called the ILLEGITIMATE children of Cleghorn, a Mason/Freemason. They have ties to Treasonous person Sanford B. Dole, one of the many genocide activists of the period.
Princess Poomaikelani has descendants, which is where our families come in. There are documented others.
Princess Kinoiki a sibling of Queen Kapiolani, wife of King Kalakaua; sibling of Princess Poomaikelani had three children. Her husband Iona Piikoi was married previously and there are other children who were defrauded by the Kuhio, Kawananakoa families.
Prince Edward lived with Princess Poomaikelani and mysteriously died at age 18.
Prince Kuhio, a treasonous person was another who married a Kahanu (w) who married into the Woods family. Descendants of Kahanu (w) exist in Aetearoa.
Prince Kawanankoa, another treasonous person has a questionnable lineage who continues genocide activities, claiming lands that they have no rights to……..they have changed their names from Ellerbrock to Kawananakoa; Lambert to Kawananakoa, etc.

There are many unresolved issues, ramifications are ongoing.

The point is that they are treasonous persons.

The point /purpose of providing the links of the Robert Wilcox background is to show further issues of treasonous persons activities since King David Kalakaua’s period. Charles Reed Bishop was also another treasonous person and ramifications are ongoing.

I have posted the actual documents showing why Kuhio and Kawananakoa were treasonous persons.
Additional evidence is part of a book that everyone will find exceptional…….important that all kanaka maoli to have to keep with their land documents and especially handy to support the reason why they’re on the lands.

Most of the documents are already in the hands of many who assist in caring for our families interests.

“Today, I see crazies out there in high places hanging on everyword. Where is independent thinking? Where is researching? and more scary where is family and not clones of two authors that were and have manipulated our thinking for too long. But, I didn’t question although I feel we need to question the native Hawaiian human conditioning that’s been going on too long and now the Akaka Bill is a duplicate of the Rehabilitation Act only that it’s adding in a ‘military’ component. I hope you read this! Keep posting sudden crush need to keep hearing it! Much aloha”

People are lazy and apparently have done badly in schools…..diverted by anger…….when that anger should really be put to good use by hitting the books and DOING something about it….as both you and I know……….lol…

Sheer laziness…………plus the fact that they don’t listen to their kupuna…..don’t take notes…..don’t record, etc……….many are sucked into the American ways of opposing their kupuna…………and then, you have the ones who listened………and clashing with the undereducated…….mind you not uneducated but undereducated…………..because they haven’t listened and have no clue about such important issues of how propaganda plays a role in prompting people to act, react, etc.

If everyone reviewed the Truth….or at least part of the Truth……researched and purposefully put out for many (not all due to some nasties), hopefully they could connect the dots………..for example, in regards to the “military” component:

1822 Secret Treaty of Verona

– move towards One World Order – comprised of Nations that All Nations should watch out for:

1) Austria
2) France
3) Prussia
4) Russia
5) England
6) U.S.
7) Vatican

Won’t go over all the nations activities but let’s touch base with Austria.

Austria provides WEAPONS OF WAR for nations and in our index files as attempting to arm the Hawaiian Kingdom during King David Kalakaua’s period.

Kamehameha III’s period documented Neutrality…..meaning non-warring.

Queen Liliuokalani’s period documented Neutrality….yet, the broke ass, bankrupt U.S. supported by England, the bankers, and the military did breach the Law of Nations and created a War against a neutral, friendly, neutral nation, the Hawaiian Kingdom.

Robert Wilcox, schooled in Italy, etc. learned WARRING and his activities showed a continuous activity of moving to WAR, getting everyone riled up, yet, supported by Americans and England……Americans did move him into Congress, and his partner in crime was Volney Ashford a documented treasonous person who came from, and was supported by England………..see New York Times articles links in my posted article.

Then you have the brothers two, the “Niggers” of the Hawaiian Kingdom partners in crime supported by the U.S., and the military, and their brotherhood of Masons/Freemasons………..going against the Queen who legally WAS NOT their aunty……..all the propaganda, lies, criminal illusions, collusions set up…. can you smell the stench?……………..heard that Akaka was part of the family of Kawananakoa’s….and everyone must not let the fact go that Thomas Akaka, ancestor of Daniel Akaka, did commit treason, and did conspire against the Queen, the Hawaiian people, government – Hawaiian Kingdom in 1892 in Washington, D.C. with Thurston, Dr. Mott Smith…….in other words, there’s a history of people who are documented as treasonous and notably their descendants perpetuate the crimes of the past….

can you imagine if everyone did their homework…..it could be big time AWESOME!

The military’s part is to “protect the lives and property of their own”…..this is the constant propaganda fed to everyone………i heard it many times while working for the Army, Navy and Air Force…it’s a sort of indoctrination campaign….like the chants put out by the churches…..some good, yet some to maintain obedience which is the part of the Vatican (oops, was only going to cover Austria…..lol)

The military’s support is Congress say so (see Premeditation article posted many times over)….the U.S. President pushes the Executive Order and all of them are really breaching their own Constitution, Law of the Seas, etc……lawbreakers against their own Supreme Court Justices who did declare that their roles and authority was limited to 3-12 miles from their contiguous shores/continent/United States….lands of the true owners, the native Indians btw.

England guides the U.S. and their history shows it…………ooops…..Austria is the focus….the road to WAR all set up by one nation, then the other nations prepares to FIGHT, PLUNDER, WAR with the intent to assume, claim, divvy up the goods (lands, resources, etc.)….do you see the pirating games?….yep, PIRATES ON THE HIGH SEAS……call it what it is……….

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHLqfkU_0xA”/&gt;

Amidst all the criminal activities around us………….the true bloodlines are here…………..documenting criminals, etc…………….many Nations are watching……….and we maintain a neutral, non violent nation….with much aloha to our families and friends…..including you, one of our many connecting families!…………….aloha nui.

All of this that I am posting is problematic to our people. We are reacting to an author’s story and we need to rethink the future.

I was at Wailua during the opening/closing of the Makahiki. I was standing mostly by Aunty Nani.

hi Pomai,

Kaohi is part of our families……..many families were under duress………with genealogies, she and others are actually taking care of our families interests……

as for property taxes, a law was passed with the prompting of Tam who’s running for Mayor of the City and County which eliminates property taxes from kanaka maoli on the Hawaiian Homesteads….good stuff….

so those who are American in their thinking, voting…it appears he’s the candidate to go for…it appears he’s moving to help the kanaka maoli…..and i found out Dan Inouye and his cabal absolutely hates him…………..lol………..

aloha.

from Pilipo:

BOHICA !

The Obamanation of the free world may be right before our eyes. The reaction of Obamanites as they address what could be the greatest catastrophe since the Flood.

Seems Obama has been in BP’s pocket since the beginning. Most of BP’s stock is in so-called American hands of people like Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan/Chase,.the “Godmakers”

Rev Jeremiah Wright was not wrong when he claimed the “Chickens have come home to roost” but most of us didn’t realize he included the Obama Factor. But never forget’ Obama can not do alone for he has full support of the U. S. Congress. Almost like the Hawaiian Legislature of 1893 for
neither could the Committee of Safety or (160) Marines have done it alone either!.

BP’s Gulf Operations is sort of like a sequel to “Airport”, where everything goes wrong and nobody is accountable.
If one can fathom this, BP is drilling some 5,000 miles to the Gulf’s floor and then another 18,000 miles into the very inner crust of the earth.

Some scientific theory of the “Big Bang” was based upon subsurface, surface, and atmospheric methane mixture that blew the Earth, like a 100,000 Hiroshima’s. It seems this gusher of all gushers is producing pressures of 100,000 psi at its base. 100k psi ! There is no procedure, equipment or technology that can solve this void of the Earth, other itself collapsing within and sealing itself. If not stopped, the amount of methane gas at this Gulf Well that is being produce could very well be enough to have another “Big Bang”

Back in May, I visited Mt St. Helen in Washington.
Pictures and videos of the before and after are quite alarming. What was a Sea of Tranquility became a war zone But for me the most eye catching was a quote at the very upper most Lodge on the Mountain, that said;
“I (God) gave mankind these Majestic Mountains, and now I am taking it back” All I can say, forgive us Lord for we know what we do.

Please view the attached by Adrian Salbuchi tabbed, “The Well From Hell”, Part 1 and 2 especially and peruse Mr. Salbuchi’s library. Its alarming. One can only ask ourselves, “‘what the hell are they doing to the world”?

Could this be what is referred to as Montezuma Revenge?
I further recommend everyone recall your ohana living within 1000 miles of the Gulf of Mexico to come home within the next 6 months before no can sell.

Maybe now, we Hawaiian Nationals will realize how vital Hawaii nei is. We must come together, ho’okahi lokahi to form our lowest and most vital denominator, the Legislature of the People, the lawful body of record. Register to vote as a Hawaiian National in the up coming election and run or support a candidate in your moku for one of the representative districts.

By the way, some of us had a pono time in memorial of the declaration of the fraudulent Republic of Hawaii, July 4, 1894, a 100 yards fromwhere the lie began.

Aloha ke Akua,
pilipo

TomDispatch.com: A Regular Antidote to the Mainstream Media

Tomgram: Stephan Salisbury, Plotting Terrorism

Barack Obama may not have come into office pledging to get the U.S. out of Afghanistan, but he did pledge one thing: to close

the Bush-era prison at Guantánamo within a year. That couldn’t have been clearer. And as I wrote back then, it was also a reasonable basis on which to judge whether a democratic administration could do anything significant to roll back our Bush-created Homeland Security Nation and alter American policy abroad.

Now, we have our answer — and it couldn’t be clearer either. No, he can’t. Or won’t.

Just last week, under the dreary headline

“Closing Guantánamo Fades as a Priority,” Charlie Savage reported in my hometown paper that “the Obama administration has sidelined efforts to close the Guantánamo prison, making it unlikely that President Obama will fulfill his promise to close it before his term ends in 2013.” Admittedly, it would never have been an easy thing to do, not given domestic politics and the outsized fear of terrorism that goes with it. It would, however, have been a lot easier than sweeping away much of the rest of the legacy of the Bush administration: the Global War on Terror, the Department of Homeland Security, the Fear Inc.

that now rules our lives and somehow managed to convince us, even with unemployment through the roof and the Gulf of Mexico turning into a dead sea, that the main danger to this country is “terrorism.”

As it happens, the only thing the Obama administration seems to have swept away was the name

, Global War on Terror. The war itself, like Guantanamo, has proven as unstaunchable as that gusher in the Gulf of Mexico. However named, that “war

,” the Afghan war

, and the CIA’s drone war

in the Pakistani borderlands have all expanded, while the war in — or at least occupation of — Iraq has been shrinking ever so slowly on a schedule the Bush administration set up before it left office.

Perhaps none of this is surprising, not with

a holdover Secretary of Defense from the end of the Bush administration, the hawkish Hillary Clinton as secretary of state, and a national security advisor who was a friend of John McCain’s, and might as easily have been chosen by him for the same post (had he won in 2008). Minus a few speeches and a friendlier attitude toward Russia, it’s increasingly hard to tell the difference between Obama’s imperial policy abroad and the Bush version of the same.

Meanwhile, at home, we remain scared to death by a fear machine that, 24/7, turns every inept doofus

into public enemy number one. The latest news

from our $281 billion

Afghan war is this: there are, according to CIA director Leon Panetta, 50 to 100 al-Qaeda operatives in Afghanistan and, according to Michael E. Leiter, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, “more than 300” al-Qaeda leaders and operatives in the Pakistani tribal areas. That’s the “other superpower.” At home, too, as Stephan Salisbury, author of the invaluable Mohamed’s Ghosts: An American Story of Love and Fear in the Homeland

, makes clear, we are largely fighting ghosts and phantasms, some helpfully conjured up by the government itself. Too bad we can’t wake up from this nightmare.

Stage-Managing the War on Terror
Ensnaring Terrorists Demands Creativity
By Stephan Salisbury

Informers have by now become our first line of defense in our battles with the evildoers, the go-to guys in the never-ending domestic war on terror. They regularly do the dirty work — suggesting and encouraging the plots, laboring as bag men to move the money, fashioning the bombs, and eliciting the flamboyant dialogue, even while following the scripts

of their handlers to the letter. They have attended to all the little details that make for the successful and now familiar arrests, criminal complaints, trials, and (for the most part) convictions in the ever-distracting war against… what? Al-Qaeda? Terror? Muslims? The inept? The poor?

The volunteers who comprise the staff of the International Action Center would like to send our heartfelt condolences to the founder of the IAC, Ramsey Clark, upon the loss of his life partner and spouse of six decades, Georgia Welch Clark, who left us this July 3. We attach below the notice of her death prepared by the Clark family.

Georgia Welch Clark, 81, passed away peacefully in her home on July 3. Georgia was born in Corpus Christi, TX. She attended Mills College and received her BA Degree from the University of Texas and MA in Political Science from the University of Chicago. Georgia is survived by her husband of 61 years, former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark; her daughter Ronda; her son Tom Clark II, U.S. Department of Justice; granddaughters Whitney, Taylor, and Paige Clark; and her brother Michael Welch of Oceanside, CA. Her beauty, wisdom and limitless love inspired all who knew her. Her steadfast support and love – filled labors for her daughter Ronda, who was born incapable of caring for herself, and for her husband Ramsey, in pursuit of his ideals, made the lives they have lived possible.

Reflections on Independence Day 2009

Thomas Jefferson and Mohammed Ali Jinnah
Dreams from two founding fathers
By Akbar Ahmed

“You are free; you are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques or to any other place of worship. . . . We are starting in the days when there is no discrimination, no distinction between one community and another, no discrimination between one caste or creed and another. We are starting with this fundamental principle that we are all citizens and equal citizens of one state.”

These are the words of a founding father — but not one of the founders that America will be celebrating this Fourth of July weekend. They were uttered by Mohammed Ali Jinnah, founder of the state of Pakistan in 1947 and the Muslim world’s answer to Thomas Jefferson.

When Americans think of famous leaders from the Muslim world, many picture only those figures who have become archetypes of evil (such as Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden) or corruption (such as Hamid Karzai and Pervez Musharraf). Meanwhile, many in the Muslim world remember American leaders such as George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, whom they regard as arrogant warriors against Islam, or Bill Clinton, whom they see as flawed and weak. Even President Obama, despite his rhetoric of outreach, has seen his standing plummet in Muslim nations over the past year.

Blinded by anger, ignorance or mistrust, people on both sides see only what they wish to see, what they expect to see.

Despite the continents, centuries and cultures separating them, Jefferson and Jinnah, the founding fathers of two nations born from revolution, can help break this impasse. In the years following Sept. 11, 2001, their worlds collided, but the things the two men share far outweigh that which divides them.

Each founding father, inspired by his own traditions but also drawing from the other’s, concluded that society is best organized on principles of individual liberty, religious freedom and universal education. With their parallel lives, they offer a useful corrective to the misguided notion of a “clash of civilizations” between Islam and the West.

Jefferson is at the core of the American political ideal. As one biographer wrote, “If Jefferson was wrong, America is wrong. If America is right, Jefferson was right.” Similarly, Jinnah is Pakistan. For most Pakistanis, he is “The Modern Moses,” as one biography of him is titled.

The two were born subjects of the British Empire, yet both led successful revolts against the British and made indelible contributions to the identities of their young nations. Jefferson’s drafting of the Declaration of Independence makes him the preeminent interpreter of the American vision; Jinnah’s first speeches to the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan in 1947, from which his statement on freedom of religion is drawn, are equally memorable and eloquent testimonies. As lawyers first and foremost, Jefferson and Jinnah revered the rule of law and the guarantee of key citizens’ rights, embodied in the founding documents they shaped, reflecting the finest of human reason.

Particularly revealing is the overlap in the two men’s intellectual influences. Jefferson’s ideas flowed from the European Enlightenment, and he was inspired by Aristotle and Plato. But he also owned a copy of the Koran, with which he taught himself Arabic, and he hosted the first White House iftar, the meal that breaks the daily fast during the Muslim holy days of Ramadan.

And while Jinnah looked to the origins of Islam for political inspiration — for him, Islam above all emphasized compassion, justice and tolerance — he was steeped in European thought. He studied law in London, admired Prime Minister William Gladstone and Abraham Lincoln, and led the creation of Pakistan without advocating violence of any kind.

No one in public life is free of controversy, of course, not even a founding father. Both were involved in personal relationships that would later raise eyebrows (Jefferson with his slave mistress, Jinnah with a bride half his age). In political life, the two suffered accusations of inconsistency: Jefferson for not being robust in defending Virginia from an invading British fleet with Benedict Arnold in command; Jinnah for abandoning his role as ambassador of Hindu-Muslim unity and becoming the champion of Pakistan.

The controversies did not end with their deaths. Jefferson’s views on the separation of church and state generated animosity in his own time and as recently as this year, when the Texas Board of Education dropped him from a list of notable political thinkers. Meanwhile, hard-line Islamic groups have long condemned Jinnah as a kafir, or nonbeliever; “Jinnah Defies Allah” was the subtitle of an exposé in the December 1996 issue of the London magazine Khilafah, a publication of the Hizb ut-Tahrir, one of Britain’s leading Muslim radical groups. (Jinnah’s sin, according to the author, was his insistence that Islam stood for democracy and supported women’s and minority rights.)

But today such opinions are marginal ones, and the founders’ many contributions are commemorated with must-see national monuments — the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, Jinnah’s mausoleum in Karachi — that affirm their standing as national heroes.

If anything, it is Jefferson and Jinnah who might be critical. If they could contemplate their respective nations today, they would share distress over the acceptance of torture and suspension of certain civil liberties in the former; and the collapse of law and order, resurgence of religious intolerance and widespread corruption in the latter. Their visions are more relevant than ever as a challenge and inspiration for their compatriots and admirers in both nations.

Jefferson and Jinnah do not divide civilizations; they bridge them.

Syracuse, N.Y.

As Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s limousine drove up Pennsylvania Avenue to the White House, he was confronted by demonstrators demanding “Let Gaza Live – Free Palestine!” Refusing Secret Service demands to leave Pennsylvania Avenue and move out of sight, protestors held their ground.

The demonstrations started at 10 a.m. this morning in front of the White House in Washington, D.C., and continued throughout the day in other U.S. cities in response to the meeting between Netanyahu and President Obama.

Demonstrators demanded a total end of the siege of Gaza and the end to all U.S. aid to Israel. Israel receives about $15 million each day from the United States, and is the largest recipient of U.S. foreign aid.

Actions took place in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Syracuse, N.Y. and Charlotte, N.C.

There is a growing chorus of international outrage against the blockade of Gaza, which has prevented the Palestinian people from rebuilding their homes and lives following Israel’s murderous bombing war that took the lives of 1,400 Palestinians and wounded thousands of others in December 2008-January 2009.

“At the White House today, President Obama patted Netanyahu on the back for his last minute announcement that certain consumer goods might be let into Gaza. This was just a propaganda ploy to continue rather than end the blockade. Israel still bans all items that are needed for building and reconstruction. Israel’s policy of collective punishment against a whole people constitutes a crime against humanity. We are demanding the cessation of all U.S. aid to Israel,” said the ANSWER Coalition in a statement delivered at the White House protest today.

Tonight
The Wahoo Digest

June 2010
77th Edition
Shows #3319-3336

by Mike McIntee

WAHOO, Neb. –– I have a few mileposts I eye during the year. The first is St. Patrick’s Day. It provides a hint that the long cold winter is behind us and better weather ahead. And then there is baseball opening day. No matter how hard Major League Baseball tries to ruin it, it still remains a special day.

Then there is Memorial Day, the unofficial beginning of summer. And next, here we are, is the Fourth of July. You already begin to fret that the summer is slipping by, that Memorial Day seemed like yesterday and Labor Day feels like tomorrow. If you’re going to make the Summer of ’10 into something, you better start cracking.

The big news in June 2010 was the continued spew of BP oil in the Gulf. There it gushes, 24 hours a day for 71 days. It gushes when you sleep, when you wake, when you drive to work, when you’re grocery shopping. It never ends. Who would have thought it possible that we would still be unable to cork the leak? Also in June was the World Cup. General McChrystal was fired. And we discovered a smoking kid. These made up a major portion of our comedy for June ’10.

Alan Kalter was kept busy. He let Dave know the show is blessed with great musical talent. Dave agreed that Paul and the band are fantastic. But Alan was talking about himself. He then proceeds to sing Katy Perry’s “California Girl” (6/07; #3319). He got himself an earring and has been forced to wear an alcohol detection ankle bracelet (6/08; #3320). Alan in a fauxhawk, like all the kids are wearing (6/10; #3222). Alan blows the vuvuzela, and later gets beat up during his World Cup update (6/14; #3324); Alan takes in the show from the audience (6/18; 3328); and Alan is suspected of being a Russian spy (6/30; #3326)

Special Top Tens: Washington Nationals baseball sensation Stephen Strasburg (6/10; #3322); Eminem with advice for the kids (6/25; #3333); and marathon tennis player John Isner (6/28; #3324). And one Top Ten was interrupted by a disgruntled fan in the audience who hoped the show would get better (6/14; #3324). Unfortunately, all he had was hope.

I really enjoyed the music this month. Standing out for me was Cyndi Lauper and Allen Toussaint (6/14; #3324); Devo (6/15; #3325); Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue (6/22; #3330); Bettye LaVette (6/23; #3331); Peter Wolf (6/10; #3322); and Jay-Z and Eminem on the roof was great (6/25; #3333).

When the good weather rolls around, the Late Show likes to go outside. Of course, we had the concert on the roof. And we also had Mark Odgers jumping over two Ford Fiestas on 53rd Street (6/24; #3332); Landon Donovan and Dave in a Late Show Soccer Challenge on Broadway (6/09; #3325); and the thrilling CokeZero/Mentos car breaking the sound barrier on 53rd, piloted by Dave (6/29; #3325).

Hey, a return of Know Your Current Events! The first in a year and a half! (6/17; #3327).

And this month marked Dave’s 30th year since he first hosted his own show, the daytime David Letterman Show. And after 30 years, my favorite parts of his programs are his stories. We learned that Dave gave a presentation at Harry’s school about big wild animals. “Did you ever see a bunny?” (6/07; #3319); Dave making waffles (6/10; #3320); Dave asking to hear “Time on the roundup, 8 past the hour” during his morning commute (6/09; #3321); Dave’s take on TV cakes (6/11; #3323); Dave and Harry take a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge (6/22; #3330); “Daddy forgot to sunblock me!” (6/23; #3331).

My favorite shows of the Month of June 2010: Jay-Z and Eminem (6/25; #3333); and Regis eating shellfish and makes a bet with Dave (6/22; #3330)

It was a great month, June 2010, though I think we could have done without a topless Biff (6/21; #3329).

This Week In
Dave History

This Friday marks the 28th anniversary of Calvert DeForest’s famous rendition of “The Night Before Christmas,” lost without cue cards, reading a French book on catechism, thinking it was in Spanish.

Twenty-four years ago this week on LATE NIGHT, Dave calls the Soviet press TASS to spread the rumor that U.S. grain turns Russian urine blue. TASS is not amused and hangs up on him. Dave calls again the following night and is rewarded with an English expletive.

CLAIMING YOUR ANCESTORS LANDS — ALLODIAL ISSUES…..

The following article was posted in the IOLANI – The Royal Hawk.

This message is being sent again because the EXHIBIT section was not covered.

The legal documents should contain the following in the following order:

News/Clinton- Scandals/ Riadi-Hawaiian_Link/ greg.htmGreg states that “the number-one purveyor of broadcast news in this
country– NBC, with both MSNBC and CNBC under its wing, as well as NBC news and a variety of “news magazines”– is now owned and controlled by General Electric, one of the nation’s largest defense contractors. Is it not significant that as GE’s various media subsidiaries predictably lined up to cheerlead the use of U.S. military force in Kosovo, it was at the same time posting substantial profits from the sale of the high tech of modern

warfare it so shamelessly
glorifies?..

It is the handgun that makes so many white males feel impregnable, as if they were riding around with a turret gun in a Hummer.

Tomgram: Ann Jones, Strategies for “Success” in Afghanistan

[Note for TomDispatch Readers: Check out my appearance
on Russia TV for my book, The American Way of War: How Bush’s Wars Became Obama’s
. Have a good Fourth of July. The next TomDispatch post will be on Tuesday July 6th. Tom.]

Doesn’t it seem, sometimes, that American history, the “people’s history,” is actually made by about 17 giant government and corporate entities, all hopelessly intertwined — and worse yet, that they never go away? On Tuesday, TomDispatch posted Stephen Kinzer’s piece, “BP in the Gulf — The Persian Gulf
.” It was a reminder that, more than half a century ago (when it was called the Anglo-Persian Oil Company), the giant oil corporation now despoiling the Gulf of Mexico had, in quite a different way, despoiled Iranian democracy to maintain its hold on that country’s oil. It did so in conjunction with the Central Intelligence Agency, which, in 1953, overthrew a democratic Iranian government eager to nationalize that oil.

Well, neither of them has gone away. That’s obvious enough. Last week, the CIA popped up again, this time in conjunction with another of its favorite corporations, the infamous rent-a-gun company formerly known as Blackwater, now Xe Services. The Agency has given that for-profit warrior outfit a new $100 million contract
to guard its various outposts in Afghanistan “andelsewhere” (assumedly Pakistan, where it’s running the first civilian drone war in history). Xe is as notorious in its own realm as BP is in its. With Xe, if you come across a scandal in our war zones, it’s likely to be implicated; with BP, if you come across a spill or other energy disaster, its oily footprints are likely to be somewhere on the scene — and that includes, believe it or not, the 1989 Exxon Valdez spill
!

You would think that, sooner or later, the U.S. government might stop hiring Xe to do its dirty work, given that, as Jeremy Scahill, author of the bestselling book Blackwater, put it
recently, the company is “being rewarded with new contracts despite its track record of scores of acts of misconduct, including allegations of murdering and manslaughtering civilians, weapons charges, conspiracy, and obstruction of justice to name a few.” But no such luck.

Worse yet, the CIA wasn’t alone, as the State Department just agreed to shell out $120,123,293 in taxpayer dough to a unit of Xe to pay for guarding some of its facilities in Afghanistan. (The awarding of this contract, reports
CBS News which broke the story, comes barely “four months after the government of Iraq ordered hundreds of Blackwater-linked security guards to leave the country within seven days or face possible arrest.”)

Some companies just never leave, not when the payouts total $220 million-plus in a single week, and the U.S. government, whether run by Republicans or Democrats, evidently can’t get enough of their unique style of work. Of course, while all of this was reported here, none of it made news. Not really. You had to leave the mainstream and head over to the Nation website, where Scahill blogs
, to find someone really connecting the dots
and raising an alarm. But like the famous cheese of children’s rhyme, Scahill stands more or less alone.

I give it a week or two before BP, Xe, and the CIA make it into the same story and no one but Scahill notices. In the meantime, consider all of this living proof of what Ann Jones, author of the prescient (and moving) Kabul in Winter
and TomDispatch regular
, has to say about the way the whole American project in Afghanistan is being conducted. The week those contracts were handed out, Jones was embedded with U.S. troops in the eastern part of that country, where the situation is only getting worse. Tom

Counterinsurgency Down for the Count in Afghanistan…
But the War Machine Grinds On and On and On
By Ann Jones

President Obama’s Afghanistan strategy isn’t working. So said a parade of Afghanistan watchers during the flap over war commander General Stanley McChrystal’s firing. But what does that phrase, so often in the media these days, really mean? And if the strategy really isn’t working, just how can you tell?

Sightings.com Is Back!

In 1994, Jeff Rense created his award-winning radio program in Santa Barbara, covering the UFO and Paranormal field in addition to a carefully-selected number of geopolitical, health and other eclectic topics. The program was called ‘The End Of The Line with Jeff Rense’ and Jeff still uses that same name as his subtitle after 17 years on the air.

During this time, Jeff also launched his famed Sightings.com website to expand upon the program and to explore and develop the exploding potential of the internet. In fact, Jeff was a primary pioneer in the interactive use of a live, nationally-syndicat ed radio talk program and an interactive website working in tandem to present leading and controversial personalities and information.

While with Premiere, Jeff’s Sightings On Radio and Sightings.com successfully rivaled the immensely popular Coast-to-Coast show and website… until Jeff realized that world events and geopolitical subjects were moving far too fast and growing far too serious to have them stand behind a generally paranormal venue. After 12 years as an award-winning network affiliate television news director and anchorman, Jeff was growing more and more determined to push back, hard, at the mass of propaganda and mind control the controlled mainstream media had become.

So, in 1999, Jeff changed course and began to roll out an information super-storm which spanned his program, now the Jeff Rense Program and his enormously popular net site, now renamed Rense.com… which became the internet’s first truly ‘alternative’ news forum featuring views, commentary and information of national and international substance and importance found virtually nowhere else.

Now, to start the second decade of the new century, Jeff Rense has joined forces with the inimitable, remarkable Brian Vike, to re-launch Sightings.com as its own unique research and reporting platform expressly devoted to the UFO, ET and paranormal genres. Brian, through many years of intensely devoted efforts through his HBCC UFO Research site, has amassed an enormous database of encounters and reports, second only to Peter Davenport’s 15 years of meticulously recorded and reported treasury of UFO sightings and events of often highest strangeness.

The UFO issue – which Jeff often refers to as the most important of all – is so dynamically interwoven into real-world affairs that it deserves its own venue of this nature and scope. So long as we remain in a struggle against controlling oligarchies determined to drown the public in lies, disinformation, treasonous subterfuge and mind-control, the insulting, vile UFO cover-up remains a central element in the planned deception and manipulation of essential realities to which every person should be firmly awakened. To this end, Sightings.com renews its vigorous role in shining light into the darkness and illuminating this profoundly important issue of truly cosmic proportions.

Sightings.com hopes to help expand the awareness of the cosmic conspiracy, and further assist in enlightening the public to what many astronauts, astrophysicists, airline pilots and military aviators have repeatedly asserted… that ET visitation and UFOs are REAL. We hope you’ll stop in often and participate with us on this ongoing journey.

Iraq looks to spectacular oil boom to revive its political fortunes
What is being called the great Iraqi oil rush has gained momentum in the wake of BP’s Gulf of Mexico disaster
By Patrick Cockburn

The map of the world’s main energy suppliers is about to change as Iraq’s oil output quadruples over the next 10 years according to new forecasts. Iraq will eventually displace Saudi Arabia as the world’s biggest exporter, experts predict, giving Baghdad crucial influence over the future price of oil.

The rush to exploit Iraq’s “super-giant” oilfields, of which it has the largest concentration in the world, has gathered impetus with unexpected speed in the wake of BP’s disaster in the Gulf of Mexico which has raised fears over deep-sea drilling. Iraq’s oil has the advantage of being both onshore and cheap to develop.

The intensifying political isolation of Iran, and the latest moves by the UN Security Council to target the Islamic regime with increasingly tough sanctions in a bid to prevent its development of nuclear weapons is a second key factor influencing Iraqi production. Iran may have unexploited reserves, but its oil output is expected to fall significantly as its old oilfields are depleted and not replaced.

Iraq, by contrast, aims to raise its crude production from 2.5 million barrels a day today to 9.5 million in 2020 under contracts signed with the world’s biggest oil companies over the last 12 months. This development should be feasible, experts believe, because the rise in production will come from improved exploitation of oilfields already discovered rather than from the discovery of new ones.

The outcome of what is being called “the great Iraqi oil rush” will inevitably transform the balance of power between oil-producing states with Iraq the winner, Saudi Arabia and Iran the losers. Dr Leo Drollas, chief economist of the London-based Centre for Global Energy Studies, who has produced the first comprehensive study of the impact of the new Iraqi contracts and the consequences of an accelerated oil rush over the coming years, predicts that “the evolution of Iraq’s oil capacity over the next 10 years promises to be the most important issue confronting Saudi Arabia in particular and Opec and the oil industry in general.”

Saudi Arabia and Iran will both be badly hit as Iraq raises its oil production even if it does not achieve its maximum target. Dr Drollas says: “Saudi Arabia will only meet its revenue needs if Iraq wholly fails to meet its production plans.” Given that Opec has more capacity than it needs to meet demand, increased Iraqi output will drive down the price of oil.

The development of Iraqi oil at breakneck pace started when the Iraqi government awarded 11 service contracts in two rounds of bidding to international oil companies such as BP, Royal Dutch Shell and Exxon last year. At the first auction last summer many companies held back or had their bids rejected as too costly, but at a second round of bidding at the end of the year there was a rush to sign up by more than 20 companies. Much of the world’s oil industry felt that Iraq’s oilfields represent a once-in-lifetime opportunity they could not ignore.

At stake are some of the biggest oilfields in the world. Rumaila oilfield just north of the Kuwaiti border, for example, is expected to produce 1.85 million barrels a day, West Qurna 1, north of Basra, 1.84 million and Majnoon, in the salt marshes on the Iranian border, 1.3 million. Increased Iraqi output will total 7.5 million, far in excess of the expected increased production capacity of all of the rest of Opec.

The sums of money involved are also huge. This week Shell signed a $12.5bn natural gas production venture with Iraq. The companies developing Iraq’s oil, for which they are paid a fee per barrel and do not get a share in production, will spend $100bn over 10 years according to Iraqi oil minister Hussain Shahristani. He adds that Iraq itself should benefit by $200bn.

It has long been known that Iraq has vast oil reserves, mostly in the south of the country around Basra, but these have been under-exploited because international oil companies were locked out of Iraq after the nationalisation of oil by Iraq in 1972. The Iraqi government did not have the resources to develop its own oil industry at a necessary pace in the 30 years of war and sanctions following the start of the Iran-Iraq war in 1980.

But staff from the giant oil companies have been pouring into Basra recently, establishing expensive headquarters in the city. Visiting diplomats said they were impressed with the speed with which the oil giants are moving to develop the Rumaila field in particular. At the heart of the current excitement is that there may be more oil under the sands of southern Iraq than almost anywhere else on the planet. The country has 115 billion barrels of proven reserves but there may be up to another 100 billion barrels under the Western Desert where there has been little exploration.

This is on top of oil and gas reserves already discovered. These include nine “super-giant” fields (over five billion barrels) and 22 known “giant” fields (over one billion barrels). The US Department of Energy, citing independent consultants, says the cluster of super-giant fields in south-eastern Iraq forms “the largest known concentration of such fields in the world and accounts for 70 to 80 per cent of the country’s proven oil reserves”. A further 20 per cent of Iraq’s oil is around Kirkuk where it is a source of continuing dispute between the Kurds, the local Arabs and the government in Baghdad. Iraq badly needs more oil revenues which last year were around $60bn. This was underlined in June by riots and demonstrations over the lack of electricity as summer temperatures reached 50C. The Electricity Ministry says it needs $5bn a year to build new power stations and fix old ones but it gets a maximum of $1.2bn a year.

The rest of the Iraqi infrastructure is in the same state. For 10 years after 1980 Saddam’s government spent all its money on weapons and from 1990 until its overthrow it did not have much money because of sanctions. No new hospitals were built after the early 1980s. Power stations grew so old that spare parts were no longer manufactured. Much of Iraq does without clean drinking water and raw sewage often goes straight into the Tigris or Euphrates. Restoring this derelict infrastructure will be costly.

Not that money alone will solve all of Iraq’s problems. Government administration is dysfunctional and corrupt. Basic needs can often only be acquired by bribery. In one recent case, a pregnant woman who taught at a Baghdad university applied for a month’s paid leave as was her right. The university administrators informed her that they would reject her request unless she paid them a month’s salary.

The incapacity and corruption of government helps explain why so little has been done to rebuild Iraq seven years after the fall of Saddam. A significant proportion of state revenues are spent on salaries and pensions because the state acts as a giant patronage machine in which its supporters get jobs regardless of ability. This is one way of distributing oil revenues, though an unfair one, that is unlikely to change, so money for investment requires higher oil revenues.

Whatever happens politically in Iraq the development of its oil reserves can only gather pace. It is the one trump card held by the embattled government in Baghdad and it is bound to play it. Most of the oil discovered hitherto is in the Shia heartlands around Basra where there has been little fighting so continued violence in Baghdad and Mosul will not stop the oil rush.

See here for an overview.

ear MoveOn member, News recently emerged from the Gulf Coast that BP is burning endangered sea turtles alive.1

That’s right. BP is using “controlled burns” to contain the oil spill, and any turtles that are not removed from the area before the fire is lit are literally burned alive.

A boat captain who has been leading efforts to rescue the endangered turtles says BP has blocked his crews from entering the areas where the animals are trapped, effectively shutting down the rescue operation.

With BP already facing so much public outrage, we can stop this. Our friends at Credo Mobile launched a petition demanding that BP stop burning turtles alive, and you can add your name by clicking the link below:

http://pol.moveon.org/seaturtles/?id=21503-2186682-lCOnyjx&t=5
The petition says: “BP: Stop blocking the rescue of endangered sea turtles before you burn them alive in your ‘controlled burns.'”

Then, after you’ve signed, be sure to share it with your friends on Facebook, Twitter, or by forwarding this email.

The way controlled burns work is that shrimp boats create a corral of oil by dragging together fire-resistant booms and then lighting the enclosed “burn box” on fire. Any animals not removed from the burn area are trapped.

The sea turtle most affected by the Gulf of Mexico oil spill is the Kemp’s Ridley, which is listed as endangered under the Endangered Species Act.2

“They ran us out of there and then they shut us down. They would not let us get back in there,” said turtle rescuer Mike Ellis in an interview with conservation biologist Catherine Craig that was posted on YouTube.3

Environmental groups including the Center for Biological Diversity and Turtle Island Restoration Network have called on BP to end the practice, but BP has refused, denying that there’s really any problem. Yesterday, these groups filed a lawsuit demanding that BP take action to protect the endangered turtles.4 But the legal system can work very slowly, and the turtles need help now.

Tell BP to allow the rescue boats back in and stop burning endangered sea turtles alive. Click the link below to sign the petition:

Terrafugia Transition flying-car cleared by the FAA

Is this the first viable flying car
? It’s a question we posed back in 2006 when we first looked at the prototype Terrafugia Transition
. It now looks like the answer is yes. The flying car (or “roadable aircraft,” as the Massachusetts-based company prefers), can fly like a regular plane and land at an airport before folding up its wings and hitting the road. In car mode, it can travel at highway speeds and park in regular parking spots. Terrafugia had been hoping the Transition could be classified as a light sport aircraft, as a sport pilot’s license is considerably easier to get than a regular private pilot’s license. Unfortunately, it was proving impossible to meet all the road safety requirements, while still keeping the vehicle weight under the 1,320-pound limit for a light sport aircraft. Well, it has just been announced that the US Federal Aviation Authority will make an exception for the Transition, and allow it to squeak in at 1,430 pounds. Things are looking up for this little aeromobile. Read More

Buy your own Tron Lightcycle: US$35,000

The lightcycle scene

One of the first films ever to use the kinds of computer-generated special effects that later become commonplace, it was a glimpse into a whole new world that left an indelible impression on most that saw it. Now, as Disney prepares to release Tron Legacy
, a sequel some 28 years after the original, the lightcycles are back and looking meaner than ever. Built by the same guys that did the memorable Batpod
replica, the new lightcycles feature massive dual hubless wheels, carbon fibre/fibreglass bodies and all the lashings of neon that you’d expect. And there’s going to be five running models built – all of which are now up for sale on eBay. Check it out! Read More

Flying car roundup: the good, the bad, the ugly … and the amphibious

Flying cars are back in the news this week with the Terrafugia Transition gaining FAA certification

Exciting stuff, but the Transition doesn’t quite satisfy our fantasies of being able to just press a button and lift off out of traffic, landing on the roof of our city office building to make that 9am meeting; it’s basically a light plane with retractable wings that you can drive on the road – you’re still stuck taking off and landing at airstrips. So here’s a quick look over what else is out there and in development in the world of flying cars and motorcycles … with a bonus look at some personal flying saucers, a flying boat and a few concepts that will never get off the ground.

And while the Fischer MRX might not tick all those boxes in its first incarnation, things are looking very positive for Dan Fischer and his new motorcycle company. The MRX650 takes the engine, forks, wheels and brakes from a Hyosung GT650 (itself a copy of the Suzuki SV650), and mates it to a 1990s GP-stype frame and swingarm by Gemini Technologies, with an improbable Ohlins shock on the back and a killer fairing design by Glynn Kerr. It’s targeted to sell under US$8,000, and there’s talk of a 1000cc variant once the Korean engine manufacturer starts making a litre-sized motor. Read More

Dear Amelia,

Yes, General Petraeus is taking over the Afghanistan war operations from General McChrystal after his disrespectful, frat-boyish comments made to Rolling Stone magazine. But the issue is not who is conducting the war, but the war itself. Unfortunately, this Wednesday, Congress is poised to throw another $33 billion of our tax dollars at this old, worn militaristic disaster. We are encouraged by Rep. Lowey and Rep. Obey’s decision yesterday to halt a portion of the funding
to Afghanistan on the basis of excessive corruption in the Karzai government. Let’s keep it up!

This is a critical moment to push your representative
and demand they take action–ask tough questions, stop funding endless war! Tell them you want a new policy based on development and conflict resolution, not war (and tell them to join the Out of Afghanistan Caucus.)

Speaking of jettisoning the old and ushering in the new, this past week a rockin’ team of CODEPINK activists at the US Social Forum in Detroit
commemorated the death of the Hummer by burying a Hummer (goodbye gas-guzzling war machine, hello renewable energy!) at the world-famous Heidelberg Project
.

Watch the video of our Hummer Burial
being transformed into a giant flower pot and read Medea’s piece on the long-awaited, gas-guzzler funeral
. We also put Big Oil to rest by partnering on the nation-wide protests of offshore oil drilling, Hands Across the Sand
.

Joining hands for a green, peaceful planet,
Bonnie, Dana, Farida, Gael, Gayle, Joan, Jodie, Medea, Nancy, Rae, and Victoria

The Time to Stop Funding Endless War is NOW!

Watch us bury the Hummer in Detroit

SEC Settles with Aguirre

( Washington, D.C.) – In what may be the largest settlement of its kind, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has agreed to pay $755,000 to settle the wrongful termination claim of Gary J. Aguirre, the attorney who headed the SEC’s insider trading investigation of Pequot Capital Management until his firing in September 2005.

A judge with the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB), the federal agency with jurisdiction over Aguirre’s termination claim, issued an order today finalizing the settlement. The settlement sum equals Aguirre’s pay for four years and ten months (the elapsed period since his September 2005 discharge), plus his attorneys’ fees. Aguirre agreed to dismiss two related cases against the SEC.

Government Accountability Project Legal Director Tom Devine stated “Unfortunately, this large settlement is the exception that proves the rule. Until Congress provides real protections for financial regulatory employees such as Aguirre, existing law will remain the best excuse for government regulators to turn a blind eye.”

The SEC’s settlement with Aguirre comes one month after the SEC filed insider trading charges against Pequot, its founder, Arthur Samberg, and David Zilkha, a former Pequot employee, based on facts uncovered by Aguirre. Pequot and Samberg paid the SEC $28 million to settle the charges against them. The case against Zilkha continues.

In August 2007, two Senate committees published a scathing 108-page report criticizing the SEC’s decision to fire Aguirre and close the Pequot investigation, which included Pequot’s suspected insider trading in securities of 20 publics companies.

The Senate report chronicles Aguirre’s promising career at the SEC, including management’s decision to give him a two-step pay raise at the end of his first year for “consistently [going] the extra mile, and then some.”

But the praise vanished when Aguirre tried to subpoena an elite Wall Street banker, John Mack. His supervisors blocked the subpoena, telling Aguirre that Mack had “juice” and “political clout.”

Aguirre’s July 27, 2005, email to his supervisors explained why the Mack subpoena was essential and expressed concern that “treating Mack differently is [not] consistent with the Commission’s mission.” The Senate Report tells what happened next: “Just days after Aguirre sent an e-mail to Associate Director Paul Berger detailing his allegations, his supervisors prepared a negative re-evaluation outside the SEC’s ordinary performance appraisal process.”

One month later, the SEC fired him without warning. The Senate report concluded that Aguirre’s “termination appears to be merely the culmination of the process of reprisal that began with the August 1 re-evaluation.”

Approximately one year after the Senate report, SEC Inspector General H. David Kotz delivered his own report on Aguirre’s firing to then-SEC Chairman Christopher Cox. Kotz recommended that Aguirre’s supervisors be disciplined. To date, neither the current SEC Chairman, Mary Schapiro, nor Cox, has done so.

The Pequot investigation appeared to have run its course when the SEC released its “Case Closing Report” in December 2006, explaining its decision to close the entire investigation, including Pequot’s trading in Microsoft options, without filing charges.

But Aguirre did not stop his Pequot investigation. He continued to collect and piece together the evidence that Samberg had used illegal tips to trade options on Microsoft stock. In April 2008, Aguirre obtained a court order forcing the SEC, over its objection, to turn over to him key records of its Pequot investigation.

In late 2008, Aguirre uncovered the last pieces of evidence necessary to prove an insider trading charge against Pequot, Samberg, and Zilkha. On January 2, 2009, Aguirre sent a letter to SEC Chairman Cox enclosing the new evidence.

Aguirre’s 16-page letter
explained how this new evidence, when combined with the evidence uncovered by him in 2005, proved that Samberg had used illegal tips in directing trades in Microsoft options, generating $14.2 million in profits to Pequot hedge funds under his management. But still the SEC would not file a case.

On May 26, 2010, Aguirre filed papers in his FOIA case seeking an order directing the SEC to release additional Pequot records to him. He argued the SEC had to turn over the records under FOIA, because it had filed no case against Pequot or anyone else. Early the next morning, the SEC filed charges against Pequot, Samberg, and Zilkha. The allegations closely track the facts stated in Aguirre’s January 2, 2009 letter.

Asked how he feels about the settlement, Aguirre replied, “I think it’s fair to the public that the SEC pays for my work over the past four years and ten months, since it generated $28 million to the U.S. Treasury. But it’s a shame the team I worked with at the SEC did not get to complete the Pequot investigation. The filing of the case in 2005 or 2006, before the financial crisis, would have been exactly what Wall Street elite needed to hear at the perfect moment: the SEC goes after big fish too.”

The Investigative Fund

Dear Friend of The Nation Institute,

Last week I wrote you about the tremendous impact of The Nation Institute’s Investigative Fund, from federal indictments to Congressional investigations. Today I’d like to tell you more about our work — and why we need your support now.

Nearly two years ago, a young reporter named Anna Lenzer came to us with an idea: to dig behind the “green” PR of America’s leading imported bottled water, Fiji Water. We mentored her as she developed a reporting plan, identifying potential sources; we encouraged her go to Fiji to report the story on the ground.

While in Fiji, Anna frequently visited an Internet café to send us updates, such as the deportation of foreign journalists by Fiji’s military junta. One day, the Fijian police came there to arrest her.

Here’s how she described the arrest in her piece:

“Who are you really?” the bespectacled inspector wearing a khaki uniform and a smug grin asked me over and over, as if my passport, press credentials, and stacks of notes about Fiji Water weren’t sufficient clues to my identity. (My iPod, he surmised tensely, was “good for transmitting information.”) I asked him to call my editors, even a UN official who could vouch for me. “Shut up!” he snapped. He rifled through my bags, read my notebooks and emails. “I’d hate to see a young lady like you go into a jail full of men,” he averred, smiling grimly. “You know what happened to women during the 2000 coup, don’t you?”

My colleague Joe Conason established a direct line of communication with the State Department and advised Anna on how to how to finish reporting her story while avoiding rearrest.

In the end, Anna, in collaboration with the excellent editors at Mother Jones, produced a cover story that was reprinted around the globe, from the Independent (UK) to Melbourne’s The Age. It sparked grassroots activism, with a food co-op in Santa Monica posting the investigation on its blog, a waiter confronting Fiji Water owner Lynda Resnick at a chic Los Angeles restaurant, and a customer at a New York City Whole Foods posting Anna’s findings on a Fiji Water display. The article went on to win a major journalism award, the Maggie.

“The Investigative Fund was a constant partner on my Fiji Water story,” Anna recalls. “Esther and Joe put themselves and The Investigative Fund behind the story from the earliest stages of selling the pitch to publicizing the story after publication.”

“The Investigative Fund gave me the resources to travel to Fiji and remained in contact while I was there — precious backing for a young freelance journalist. The affiliation helped open doors with contacts. The story would simply not have become what it did without The Investigative Fund’s support.”

But international reporting like this is expensive. The Investigative Fund needs your help. You know the importance of keeping such hard-hitting journalism alive.

Please do your part by making a donation
to The Investigative Fund now.

Warm thanks,

Esther Kaplan, Editor
The Investigative Fund
At The Nation Institute

, we’ll send you a signed copy of award-winning photojournalist Eugene Richards’ new book, War Is Personal, a searing examination of the human costs of the Iraq War, supported by The Investigative Fund. Eugene’s series just won a top award from the World Press Photo Association.

Many beautiful to the eye house plants are dangerous, if not deadly. Most cause the airway to swell to the point that one suffocates. Small toddler children like to smell plants and may be apt to intake a parts of a leave that is dangerous. Also, beware of the “Api” type plants that look like kalo. There are alot of dry-land kalo being brought into Hawaii nei that are not eating varities. Most of which
nothing is known other than its beauty..Same is known of “cashews” nuts where most varities are poisonous. This pictured particular plant is quite common in Hawaii.
Anchor home-improvement retailers are bringing in many species of beautiful foreign plants.

A COMMON HOUSE PLANT CAN BE DANGEROUS…. STAY SAFE.

A picture of the Diffenbachia plant, below.

Please read below. The message is true. I almost lost my daughter who put a piece of the leaf of this plant in her mouth and her tongue swelled to the point of suffocation. This is one plant but there are others with the same characteristics of coloring. Those are also poisonous and we should get rid of them. Please watch out for our children. As we all leave our children home in the hands of the helpers, we should give them a safe environment where they can play.

“This plant that we have in our homes and offices is extremely dangerous!
This plant is common in Rwanda, in many offices and in homes. It is a deadly poison, mainly for the children. It can kill a kid in less than a minute and an adult in 15 minutes. It should be uprooted from gardens and taken out of offices. If touched, one should never touch ones eyes; it can cause partial or permanent blindness.

Subject: RE:How to recognize a stroke (not a joke)

PLEASE! Read this, very, very important to you, your family and friends, could save a life.
Subject:: New sign of a stroke—–stick out your tongue

STROKE:

Remember The 1st Three Letters. . .

S.T.R.

A friend sent this to me and encouraged me to post it and pass it on to all my family and friends. I wholeheartedly agree. If we can all remember something this simple, we could save some folks.

STROKE IDENTIFICATION

During a Barbecue, a friend stumbled and took a little fall. She assured everyone that she was fine and had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. (they had offered to call paramedics). They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food and while she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening.

Ingrid’s husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital. (at 6:00 PM, Ingrid passed away). She had suffered a stroke at the Barbecue. Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today. Some don’t die. They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead.

A neurologist stated that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.

RECOGNIZING A STROKE
Remember the ‘3’ steps S. T. R.

Read and Learn!

Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.

Now Doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:

S* Ask the individual to ‘Smile.’

T* Ask the person to ‘talk,’ to ‘speak a simple sentence coherently. (i.e., It is a sunny day today).

R* Ask them to ‘Raise Both Arms’.

NOTE: A new sign of a stroke is this:
Ask the person to ‘stick out’ their tongue. It the tongue is ‘crooked’ that is if it goes to one side of the mouth or the other it is an indication of a stroke. If they have trouble with ‘any one’ of these it is an indication of a stroke.

Call 911 immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved.

CLAIMING YOUR ANCESTORS LANDS — ALLODIAL ISSUES…..

The following article was posted in the IOLANI – The Royal Hawk.

This message is being sent again because the EXHIBIT section was not covered.

The legal documents should contain the following in the following order:

1) Cover page (covers ancestors name, RP/Royal Patent Number, LCA/ Land Commission Award number

2) Affidavit/Certification (family genealogies)

3) Heirs and Assigns page

country– NBC, with both MSNBC and CNBC under its wing, as well as NBC news and a variety of “news magazines”– is now owned and controlled by General Electric, one of the nation’s largest defense contractors. Is it not significant that as GE’s various media subsidiaries predictably lined up to cheerlead the use of U.S. military force in Kosovo, it was at the same time posting substantial profits from the sale of the high tech of modern

warfare it so shamelessly
glorifies?..

Dear MoveOn member,

We struggled with whether or not to share this photo, taken of a bird on the beach at East Grand Terre Island, LA on Thursday. It's hard to look at.

But we have to face where our addiction to oil has taken us—and this photo brings that home: (Click here

The disaster in the Gulf of Mexico is heartbreaking—but if an image like this can do anything, it can sear into our minds the fact that we need a real plan to get America off of oil.

Forward this to ten of your friends, and sign the petition to Congress and the White House today:

President Obama, Governor Lingle, Senator Inouye, Coleen Hanabusa, et. als. of the entity State of Hawaii,

Greetings,

In the recent claim of gaining ownership of Honouliuli lands, the watershed, etc., I hereby state and maintain that I, Amelia Gora, am one of the owners of these lands (and others) am one of the representatives of the Royal Families House of Nobles who represent many of the alii families, which the illegal entity state which came to life on the criminal claims of documented conspirators, pirates, treasonous persons supported by Congress, U.S. President Benjamin Harrison, U.S. President Grover Cleveland, et. als. perpetuating the crimes over time, the American military/Military, and including the James Campbell Estate/Company who claimed ownership and made a recent transfer of Honouliuli properties, etc. to the state/State and the Trust for Public Lands.

I, Amelia Gora, am one of the descendants of Kamehameha, one of the heirs of Kauikeouli/Kamehameha III, Crown Land owners, and others including Mikahela Kekauonohi who was a niece, adopted daughter of my ancestors, are the documented land owners since 1848.

Royal persons are not subject to the laws. We are and remain the legal owners of these, and other lands, water, resources, etc.

Historical evidence, genealogy(ies) have been documented and are available at http://www.iolani.wordpress.com or see yahoogroups.com under the hawaiian genealogy society for more information posted regarding all lands owned by our Royal families who are not subject to the laws, and whose ancestors were under duress, stress, usurpation, and coercion, including Queen Liliuokalani in 1893.

James Campbell and his descendants, the Kawananakoa's have criminally claimed lands that they do not own. Their closure of their Trust and conveyances, etc. to the James Campbell Land Company and others remain dubious claims to lands which has owners who were not treasonous to the Hawaiian Kingdom, and moved with the conspirators/pirates documented. The Kawananakoa's including Abigail Ellerbrock, and the Lamberts, et. als. criminally claimed private properties of Royal families whose genealogies supersede their claims of being Royals, additionally, their ancestors were treasonous persons, documented in conspiracies against the Queen, her subjects and our families. It's not O.K. for the Kawananakoa's to ride on our families claims.

Additionally, the claims of a Fake State, the entity Provisional government, evolved into a Republic, a Territory, and a Fake State, supported by a nation -U.S., their Congress, Military, England, and the Morgan(etc.) bankers which claimed Prvate Properties and called it Public Lands are in parts lands criminally claimed by wicked, treasonous, conspirators, plotters against our families, our people, our Queen Liliuokalani discovered through 30 + years of research on our history, your history, the history abroad, our families, the hidden Royal family lines, laws, and so forth.

Oppositions remain in the entity State of Hawaii Governor Linda Lingle in claiming the surfing zones which is held under the jurisdiction of our konohiki ancestor David Keawe/DW Pauahi for Waikiki; and, North Shore which is held under the jurisdiction of our konohiki family member Victoria Kamamalu who was the sister of our ancestor(s) and the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estates Trustees are not related to us but a consortium of thieves, scoundrels, criminal deviants who conspired against our families, our Queen and our people.

Maintaining our interests in our families, our Royal families private properties, along with the water rights, resources, etc. in our Hawaiian archipelago,

Sincerely,

Amelia Gora, a Royal person

"Honouliuli Forest Reserve dedicated today

By Associated Press

POSTED: 06:34 a.m. HST, Jun 02, 2010

The state and the Trust for Public Land will dedicate the Honouliuli Forest Reserve today.

The trust is handing over the 3,500-acre tract to state forest managers to help protect Oahu's watershed and wildlife habitat.

The trust bought the land from the James Campbell Co.

The land covers a lowland forest on the eastern slope of the Waianae Mountain Range. It's home to 35 threatened and endangered species, including 16 found nowhere else in the world.

The land is also part of the watershed feeding the Pearl Harbor Aquifer, the largest drinking water resource on Oahu.

U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye and Senate President Colleen Hanabusa are joining Board of Land and Natural Resources Chairwoman Laura Thielen at today's dedication.

"New name for Arizona Memorial Museum Association announced

Advertiser Staff

The nonprofit organization that has long supported the USS Arizona Memorial has changed its name to reflect its broadening mission.

The Arizona Memorial Museum Association on Tuesday changed its name to Pacific Historic Parks.

The association was created in 1979 as a nonprofit cooperating association with the National Park Service to support and fund educational programs, museum displays and exhibits, and interpretive programs for the USS Arizona Memorial.

Many charter members of the association, originally from the Fleet Reserve Association, had been involved in the fundraising for the construction of the USS Arizona Memorial in 1961 and the original visitor center in 1980, officials said.

The Arizona Memorial visitor center now is part of the World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument.

The Arizona Memorial Museum Association grew over the years to support interpretive and visitor activities at three additional national parks: American Memorial Park on Saipan; War in the Pacific National Historical Park on Guam; and Kalaupapa National Historical Park on Moloka'i.

"Our association's new name, Pacific Historic Parks, better reflects our expanded scope of support at historical sites throughout the Pacific," said chairman George Sullivan. "Although our name has changed, our mission remains the same. We will continue to preserve and support these historical landmarks …"."

"Lingle's executive order establishes two surfing reserves in Hawaii

Advertiser Staff

Gov. Linda Lingle established surfing reserves by executive order today, resurrecting a measure killed by lawmakers in what could be a first.

The move was a symbolic gesture of support for retiring Republican state Sen. Fred Hemmings, whose bill establishing surfing reserves was "recommitted" in the last day of the legislative session in a move Republicans have taken offense to.

Political onlookers have said they couldn't recall a governor ever issuing an executive order to resurrect a bill killed by lawmakers.

The executive order sets up the reserves, which essentially highlight two surfing spots — in Waikiki and the North Shore — as important in the world of surfing.

The order doesn't have any appropriation, and doesn't change any enforcement or other rules.

"It's like declaring Diamond Head a national monument," said Hemmings, in a news conference today."

World Conspirators Meet in Spain

Many of the most powerful people in the world, including heads of state, foreign ministers, heads of big banks, and leaders of the largest corporations, regularly have secret meetings where they plan to control the world. The Media generally hides these meetings from the public, although the English newspaper The Guardian, Russian Television News, and other news sources do report about it.

Bilderberg 2010–Plutocracy Below the Palm Trees

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/blog/2010/jun/02/charlie-skelton-bilderberg-spain

"For a long and luxurious weekend at the Dolce Sitges, relishing its 'new and creative buffet concepts' (a table with food on it), prime ministers will mingle with European royalty, with various EU commissioners, with representatives from Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, AIB, Deutsche Bank, Chase Manhattan and Royal Dutch Shell."

Goldman Sachs, known as "Government Sachs" because so many of its personnel hold high positions in the U.S. Government, is a key player.

What is their plan? It is the end of nations, the end of the white race, the end of Christianity, the end of traditional values, and a new global economy where most people are equal….equally poor and powerless. An American will have the same rights as tribesman in New Guinea or a farmer in the Congo. Everyone will have the same wages and the same medical care and the same pensions (if any). At the top will be the billionaire elite, like the folks at Goldman Sachs, some of the jaded royalty of Europe, some heads of huge international corporations, like BP, the people who run the Media, and some liberal anti-white, anti-traditional value pseudo-intellectuals. There will still be the pretense of democracy, but the controlled Media will tell people what to think, and hate-speech and political correctness laws will muzzle all dissenters and punish them economically.

The world does need a world government to solve the overwhelming problems that threaten our survival. But I have a better idea of how it should be handled.

Here is a list of attendees at the lasting meeting:

http://govtslaves.info/2010/01/07/bilderberg-2010-attendees-list-in-greece-revealed/

Some people claim it is a Jewish conspiracy, but only about 40% of the attendees are Jewish. There are also a few people with old Nazi connections who have attended these meetings too.

I actually like one of them, Professor Niall Ferguson, who has some excellent ideas on history and economics.

hi,

Thank you for posting this article which reveals some interesting people uniting to plan the future, including the Worlds innocents.

Attendee(s)using our Hawaiian Royal Families assets without authority:

Goldman and Sachs – Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates, a pirating, racketeering, criminal Trust based on fraud, criminal conveyances, claims,did invest in them and owns 40%+ interest. The transactions of this Trust created in the Hawaiian Kingdom period has been operating by pirates, conspirators, treasonous persons since 1884 who conspired against Hawaii's Royal Families,Queen Liliuokalani, and her 40,000 subjects (versus the 3,000 treasonous, conspirators supported by the U.S. military, government, Presidents, Morgan bankers, England, and the international bankers).

Trustees claimed to be the heirs, when descendants/heirs of the Royal Families exist. Issues continue. Genocide issue continue. Racketeering, corruption, and problematic issues exposed for the World to see. Ramifications are ongoing.

Attendee affecting the criminal Plundering Upon Innocents in the Middleeast, affecting perpetual Wars for OIL:

Rockefellers are the permanent CEO's of the EXXON Oil Corporation, formerly Standard Oil Company (umbrella monopoly corporation with hundreds/thousands of corporations under their cover), owners of the 911 Twin Towers, and gifted the land for the United Nations which moves towards One World Order/New World Order.

Those who signed the 1822 Secret Treaty of Verona – Austria, France, Russia, Prussia, U.S., England, and the Vatican continue to have members actively pursuing the moves towards One World Order/New World Order.

Belgium, Netherlands, and Spain Monarchs attend, which is interesting because the 1822 Secret Treaty of Verona, seeks to destroy Monarchy governments.

Conspirators of nations meet to be among their compadres, when their citizens can do something about it if they don't want to be SLAVES, be exterminated, imprisoned, etc.

In other words, these groups basically represent the united minority of WARMONGERS, WAR FINANCIERS, scum and scoundrels who would like to enforce their agenda on the masses or the majority.

Message: Research and Study these plotters moving to take away your liberties, enslave you, kill of the environment, poison, make toxic, extermination practices of nuclear weapons such as DU/Depleted Uranium use affecting everyone in the World today …..Watch them and TAKE BACK YOUR GOVERNMENTS……….especially for Americans whose Congressmen and Presidents are treasonous against their own!

aloha.

appears you haven't taken much Sociology or Psychology courses…..or even Social Change/Modernization/Urbanization courses………….

the terminology used over time by the haole are those to deliberately put down, diminish, etc.

such terms used are "children" which makes our people "less than"………don't fall for that move to make our people "less than".

another term is "indigenous" which is recognized by the United Nations as "less than" persons/ groups incapable of ownership of lands, those without entitlement, have nothing, are nothing, and recognized as people who exist with nothing – no ownership of anything…..

you have to get out of thinking American/Amerikkkan.

anytime you need someone to set you on that path of non-violence…..you know some of the Gora's ….some of them will also set you straight as well……we are non-violent, and can give some new meanings to lip service, which is intended to teach varying kinds of people….those who are sweet and tender, and those who are rough, and at times even those who are pilau — what a waste of good energy to interact with those dubious types who don't even live here in the islands.

it is truly amazing to me how our Hawaiian people don't look up their ancestors and go back on their lands, or rent, lease it…………it's irritating to see some of our people stuck and believing the crap that the criminal deviants, pirates around us put out…………….

btw, the heads at the Bureau of Conveyances just last week are discussing the movement of our Hawaiian Kingdom books……if you didn't know already, the intent of the AKAKA BILL is to destroy all the books and transfer all lands once and for all to the U.S.

so, if you have digital cameras folks………howz about working on a project to capture all of the books before the PIRATES criminally discard all?

yes, you've heard it first here…………

btw………why the hell are you talking about Tienaman and other areas that doesn't pertain to us…….my Dad was a seer, like Kamehameha, and he said to stay away from the Chinese…….. maybe i'll say more off of the web…….or ask certain Gora's if they know…….many know more about our ancestors ruling Japan for nearly 300 years than our Hawaiian genealogies….and then certain Gora's know more about our Apache ancestor Geronimo than our Hawaiian ancestors……the fact remains, like marries like……which is why everyone should find out about their roots, etc.

Maintain a neutral, non-violent nation, otherwise, do not link yourself to the Hawaiian Kingdom, because I for one will disclaim anyone with the intent to cause violence. period. end of story.

aloha.

SAME NEWS OVER AND OVER AGAIN?

commentary by Amelia Gora (2010)

Yes indeed. Three (3) legal notices is desirable; however, in the Hawaiian Kingdom Legal Notices, four (4) legal notices appeared during King David Kalakaua's period.

The specific issues in the above are about the United States criminal moves mucking up the environment, in our Hawaiian Islands, moving to assume lands, aggressive moves to assume our water, our resources, blatant disregard for iwi, descendants existing/true owners claims,

I've posted issues about the Bishop Estates and how they have bought into the Goldman and Sachs stock markets, and did file an opposition to that shortly after (years ago)……wanted everyone to read the fact that CONGRESSMEN/Women are the INVESTORS in Goldman and Sachs too…..which means, they too are feeding off of PIRATED monies which were expended to float the Goldman and Sachs stock markets…….and don't forget the fact that MACY's stores, formerly Liberty House, is also part of that financing scheme due to the investments of the KSBE /Bishop Estates support…….etc……..MACY's beginnings are based on the use of Kamehameha families monies because one of the original owners named George Macy claimed his child was the grandson of some of Kamehameha's descendants named Kaili (w) married to Kahiamoe (k)………..many descend from them including our families……….so, research continues in maintaining all lands of our families by going over the MACY's claims as well………..if you look in the PAAOAO Probate, Second Circuit Court, you'll find that two (2) children were documented –the youngest two that is, named: Wahineaea (w) and Kamauoha (k)……..they are siblings of our tutu……..and the funny thing is that the Macy's claim to be tied to a sister named PIENA (w)….checked the dates, and funny thing….the dates don't match up!

George Macy participated in dethroning our Queen Liliuokalani in 1893, and what do you know? He became the first INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE Head to collect (wrongfully) taxes for bankrupt U.S. who supported the criminal entity Provisional government which evolved into the Republic then Territory and Executive Ordered entity State of Hawaii with documented oppositions throughout the criminal history due to the documented premeditation or standing order by CONGRESS, and the U.S. President Benjamin Harrison who were in collusion in criminally assuming a friendly, neutral, non-violent nation recognized as the Hawaiian Kingdom and the Pacific Empire with Aetearoa, and the Samoan Islands since Kamehameha's period (1810-1819).

Here's the important documents, once again:

What about U.S. President Obama who was born in the Hawaiian Kingdom, a friendly, neutral nation that went "under ground"?

Obama is one of the descendants of the BOOTH family, who has direct connects to the BANK OF HAWAII………….so, doesn't that mean he's a BANKSTER, a Bankrupt, User of our Hawaiian monies?…………….the Queen Liliuokalani Trust was held by that BANK OF HAWAII……….research incomplete………..A while back, I had posted the facts that our Queen had denied that she signed a Trust Deed, and even has it documented on her WILL…. then, remember Prince Kuhio (and brother Prince Kawananakoa) took lands in Waikiki as an OUT OF COURT SETTLEMENT……………yes, those documents will be posted soon (again)…….and, I'll give all of you a hint……the TRUE Queen Liliuokalani Trustees are kanaka maoli, and thru years(!) of research, much has been uncovered…..showing yet more evidence of PIRATES, Criminal racketeers operating utilizing OUR families trusts!………oops, premature or too much info..slip of the lip (the Portugee/Portuguese lip) …….lol…….but there's more to come………providing OBAAAMA doesn't shut down the internet which is currently being proposed by the U.S. lawbreakers/law makers….

once again, review why your CONGRESSMEN/Women, and PRESIDENTS are treasonous by reading John Nelson, legal researchers article at

http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/GORA8037

Americans, will you please control or take back your government, less the new constitution that they are currently operating on?

Kanaka maoli – it would be perfectly acceptable to present charges of Terrorist activities against a neutral, non violent nation the Hawaiian Kingdom and charges of genocide too….. because that's all that is needed…..the Hawaiian Kingdom Courts and the International Court which follows the directions of the U.S., etc…….the complaint and charges are already recorded in our Royal Families House of Nobles Records along with all the Genocide Activities List of People which has also been recorded with the Honolulu Police Department File No. 98-273435 AF-CFdated July 23, 1998 in answer to my letter of July 17, 1998 regarding genocide activities in Hawaii "Your complaint has been made a matter of official record under police report number 98-273435." – LEE D.

Hawaiian Flags

A Review

by Amelia Gora, a Royal person (2010)

A prophesy was stated that when the true Hawaiian flag was brought out, many things would happen……..or something like that……….however, it just may be a good thing!

1868 – found at the Archives, Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii – Kahn Collection – million dollar collection:

1891

King Kalakaua's flag
1893

(not the flag but some of the soldiers who came off the ship to place duress upon our Queen, our subjects on January 15-16 or 1-2 days BEFORE dethroning our Queen)

1898

1993

Kanaka Maoli flag:

aloha.

p.s. The flag depicted under the heading of the "sandwich islands" although black and white….appears to be as follows:

Stripes: white, dark blue, red, white, dark blue, red, white, and dark blue.

also, for added information….the flag that has been flying over our Hawaiian Islands since January 8, 1893 or when U.S. Congress and then President Benjamin Harrison's period of 1893 is this one:

The wonderful celebration of Ho'iho'i ea is ironically preceded on June 19 by Juneteenth and the emancipation of the African American slaves. Before the Americans occupied our country it had already described the rights of slaves in terms of its own constitution. Where are the Hawaiians described in the American constitution?

I can not find them and I can only see our position as a form of slavery. Yes, our oppression is gold plated and the chains manacle our wrist only if we refuse to give up "Who we are" and our absolute ownership of our lands.

Perhaps next year we can organize to remember our bondage or better yet our emancipation. I would propose we produce our own order to the Americans

"The people of America are informed that in accordance with a

As most people know I am a cut of the missionary cloth in Hawaii. I never kept this away from my activism and nor did I not remember my great grandparents and their involvement with the Kue petition. As a matter of fact all my grandparents were born into this enivronment and my parents and myself have carried on their wishes until today.

However, allow me to share: Samuel Mills an active player in the Haystack Committee (200 years ago) and this is at the time that the capitalism and charity split into two distinct groups in America. What most don't understand is the mechanism of 'need' base. I don't have time to explain… Charity work (which is who I am) and capitalism have been structured to intergrate for 200 years which is the basic problem with welfare and military budget on the American hill.

Samuel Mills approximat 200 years ago, created the idea of 'Gospel of Salvation' he meant it for the emanciaption of the African American slaves from the continent of Africa My grandparents Auld and Mitchell created a chain of Gospel of Salvation in Hawaii.

Which is the bases of Protestants in Hawaii. Through this I see your posting, 200 years of missionary in Hawaii and your "between partner nation and a free people of a sovereign nation."

This is where I loose it, because of the economics.
Yesterday front page in the uni newspaper(don't have the citation) 4 thousand plus homeless (a lie) without basic income. Why is this a stupid lie? Back to the past, "need' which is nothing but a cash crop. Maintaing the need to bring in federal dollars into the states pig troughs is the unintended missonary charity work in the State of Hawaii. The 'obama'(capitalist) from my view was to continue the missionary capitalistic run of the mill federal reserve banking system in their global market. And at a high school level? Very dangerous stuff! But, so was Reagan (regonomics).

For me, I try to keep a balance, I ask that you go and look at page 308 of the Kue Petition on the Oahu men side of things. Look at the names, I was raised in that 'think tank' I don't know if I was suppose to carry on the 'no treaty no annexation' or no one man one vote, all I know is they (my auld and mitchell side) were totally against a plebiscite (sp) in Hawaii. There is more to day and I appreciate your posting. Yes, it needs freedom and equality, but from my view we need Independence first than all the other stuff can come after.

I can see how you might read "Partner Nation". I refer to the relationship described in the treaty of friendship between the Hawaiian Kingdom and American. Partnership is an idea of equal status and power to say no to the other when they step out of bounds. We have had a historical relationship with the occupiers and I suggest we move to a positive one.

We can not have a legitimate relationship with America until they remove their military and stop interfering in our foreign and domestic policies.

What treaty of annexation?

Oh the one between the pirates and the traitors, that one has no effect on Hawaiian law.

Maikai no kou mana'o i'o, e Kai. Some native Hawaiians rather have the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act with it's Bloom Quantum with the United States over a legitimate relationship with America. After all the American military is in Hawaiian to protect their rights as "Americans of Hawaiian Ancestory", or AHA. As you have to be an American to receive the benefit of a homestead thru the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act. The Treaties that the United States signed with the Kingdom of Hawaii are still in place. This is one of the reasons of the AKaKa BILL. To reorganize the Hawaiian Kingdom and to terminate the Treaties between the United States and the Hawaiian Kingdom.

Pilau white men-female always attack Blood Quantum and Hawaiian Homes Commission Act. Talking out of their ass mostly, cause nothing else works. DHHL is a natalist program to keep up with the dying race. Which white men-female love to destroy, hurt and kill from their closet. Mark Twain's post Civil War abuse to native Hawaiian women are perpetuated by stupid white-female veterans that came in from foul air via SanFrancisco.

Stinking up the air is all that one does with pilau his-his talk.

I am sorry to see you two having such bad feelings for each other. I hope you can forgive any trespass. I work to improve the rights and life of all Hawaiian people. I do not believe we need American constructions of Hawaiian land use.

I would rather have you design the Lei Ali'i land use program than the congress or the administration of the fake state. I believe we have enough resource for 2% and 98% in Aloha aina.

FCC Moves to Regulate Internet–Even Though the Law Calls for Internet to be 'Unfettered by Federal or State Regulation'
Friday, June 18, 2010
By Matt Cover, Staff Writer

CNSNews.com) – The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) voted on Thursday to begin the formal process of bringing the Internet under greater federal control – a move sought by both President Barack Obama and FCC Chairnman Julius Genachowski–even though federal law calls for an Internet "unfettered by Federal or State regulation."

This step comes after the federal D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals in April rebuked the FCC in its attempt to enforce a controversial regulatory doctrine called Net Neutrality, which would allow the government to prevent private Internet providers from deciding which applications to allow on their networks.

The court said that the FCC did not have the authority to prevent Comcast, specifically, from blocking certain peer-to-peer Web sites.

"Can you cite internet providers that are blocking sites of their own choosing?"

"The FCC in 2008 censured Comcast for blocking subscribers using peer-to-peer software often used to view videos, a decision hailed by consumer groups as a step toward keeping Web traffic free of obstruction from corporations."
http://bit.ly/d1HC5x

This was big news a couple of years ago. I'm surprised you missed it.

While P2P is essentially a "technology" as opposed to a "site", as I'm sure you will bring up, P2P technologies and methodologies are used by an increasing number of some sites to provide content. Even were this not the case, it starts us down a "slippery slope" whereby providers could decide, based on their individual interests, what content would be available to their customers. Would you like it if for example you could only make or receive calls to other Sprint customers on your Sprint phone? I think not.

Bottom line: when the government starts wanting to proscribe what internet providers can PROVIDE as opposed to what they may BLOCK I will start to worry.

You do realize that Internet Neutrality is essential to a free and open Internet don't you? Without some kind of regulation of this sort providers would be able to favor their OWN content, slowing down or blocking content from rivals, thus creating a de facto corporate censorship of content based on the users' provider, and I can't imagine anyone wanting something like this."

Mort Zuckerman: World Sees Obama as Incompetent and Amateur
The president is well-intentioned but can't walk the walk on the world stage
By Mortimer B. Zuckerman
Posted June 18, 2010
President Obama came into office as the heir to a great foreign policy legacy enjoyed by every recent U.S. president. Why? Because the United States stands on top of the power ladder, not necessarily as the dominant power, but certainly as the leading one. As such we are the sole nation capable of exercising global leadership on a whole range of international issues from security, trade, and climate to counterterrorism. We also benefit from the fact that most countries distrust the United States far less than they distrust one another, so we uniquely have the power to build coalitions. As a result, most of the world still looks to Washington for help in their region and protection against potential regional threats.

Barack Obama: Let Them Eat Tar Balls
So many parties, so little time.

You are Barack Obama, and you know how to party. And now, as oil hits the Florida beaches and dying wildlife and desperate Louisiana fishermen fill the cable news in searing testimony to what Reuters is calling our "worst environmental disaster," you are doing what you do best…party.

Your bureaucrats have been saying "No we can't" to request after request for assistance along the Gulf Coast, but for you it has been "Yes we can" as you spend taxpayer dollars on entertainment at a greater rate than any U.S. president. Your parties have averaged one every three days and your vacations seem endless as you've satisfied the vow of your former social secretary to bring "the same kind of [party] environment" you had in Chicago to the White House.

You weren't known for your attention to business in the Illinois state senate, but, as one friend said about you and Michelle, "if there was a party or an event, they were there." And as little as you did in the Illinois and the U.S. senates, you've been doing even less in the Gulf, notes radio host Hugh Hewitt.

News flash. The United States engages in secret war.

To millions of Americans, and hundreds of millions around the world, this is not news. It's part of an ongoing part of U.S. foreign policy.

Last century is littered with examples. Chile, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Korea, Congo, Somalia, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Indonesia, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Cuba, Panama, Grenada, Haiti, Colombia, Poland, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Soviet Union … shall I go on?

All these countries — and more — have had U.S. special forces deployed in them. Many of them under the auspices of the CIA or the Pentagon or some other U.S. military/intelligence group, including private corporations.

Some of these operations have been run out of the basement of the White House. (Last century's Reagan and Iran-gate) Some have been run out of the vice president and president's offices. (This century's Bush/Cheney and Iraq, Afghanistan … )

All of these operations have had the goal of crushing democracy and any budding socialist-oriented or worker-friendly movements or nations, controlling resources, including labor, for U.S. corporations, and, especially during the Cold War, blunting the Soviet Union. Some of these operations have assassinated people, including elected leaders.

(It's also important to point out these "special ops" also happen on U.S. soil: re: COINTELPRO ,etc. That is one reason in the1970s Sen. Frank Church and a Senate committee investigated the CIA and FBI and found the CIA conducts "covert media operations" in the U.S. to "manipulate" public opinion. Hmmm. Sounds eerily familiar to 2002-2003 Iraq war build up.)

But recently, The Washington Post reports President Obama has "significantly expanded a largely secret U.S. war against al-Qaeda and other radical groups." A reality, they say, in a post-Sept. 11 world.
The article continues, "Special Operations forces have grown both in number and budget, and are deployed in 75 countries, compared with about 60 at the beginning of last year. In addition to units that have spent years in the Philippines and Colombia, teams are operating in Yemen and elsewhere in the Middle East, Africa and Central Asia."

There are 13,000 such special operatives, according to the report, with 9,000 of them mainly in Iraq and Afghanistan. Eighty percent of them, one official said, are to resolve "current conflicts."

Assassinations and drone attacks are part of the operations, yet, WaPo reports, they "go beyond unilateral strikes and include the training of local counter-terrorism forces and joint operations with them."

The Atlantic Monthly, in a recent blog post called "The end of Dick Cheney's kill squads," says there is considerable difference in Obama secret warfare policy and the Bush/Cheney years.

Comparing it to Seymour Hersh's expose of the Bush/Cheney "executive assassination ring" AM says, "While reports for some time have indicated that the Obama administration has continued and even expanded military special operations throughout the world, it is now clear that he has increased oversight and ended the Bush-era practice running secret military operations directly from the presidential and vice president offices."

AM calls it "an important change to the Bush-era use of military special operations," which now is overseen by "regional military commanders as well as the State Department."

But, AM, questions, like many, the expansion of secret warfare, without any judicial oversight, legal (or moral) authority, including assassination orders, which only continues the "judge, jury and executioner"-type of foreign policy of old.

The secret war report somewhat eclipsed the release of the Obama administration's new National Security Strategy, which, by all reports, looks "beyond" military might to "maintain" U.S. influence and interests around the world; emphasizes diplomacy and development; does away with unilateralism of the Bush/Cheney era and emphasizes building "global institutions," expanding partnerships and multilateralism beyond "traditional allies."

Many have said it's a departure from the saber-rattling of the Bush administration, but does not go far enough in a break with past, destructive foreign policies, and is a long way from a more "good neighbor"-type of policy.

At a recent progressive conference, America's Future NOW!, speakers on foreign policy emphasized the shift , but also said there has to be a larger and more influential movement on the ground to win a significant change.

Reply by Kaohi 17 hours ago
June 22, 2010 — The introduction of a new Senate bill, S.3480, dubbed the “Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act of 2010,” is sparking concerns about a massive power grab over the Internet under the guise of “national security.”

The bill, proposed by Sen. Joe Lieberman (I — CT) claims the entire Internet, the whole global computer network and everything on it, as a “national asset” of the United States, and seeks to give President Obama the power to seize control over broad swaths of it with no oversight during a “National Cyber Emergency,” which would itself be something the president would be able to declare at any time.

But easily the most controversial aspect of the nearly 200 page bill is what is being called a “kill switch,” granting the president the power to shut down the entire Internet across the planet for national security reasons. Sen. Collins (R — ME), a supporter of the bill, claimed it was necessary to prevent a “cyber 9/11.”

The bill amounts to a remarkable claim of presidential power, claiming a large portion of the global economy as a specific asset of the United States and further claiming the right to nationalize or destroy it in whole or part on a whim. The news may be disquieting enough for Americans faced with this sort of power grab from their own government, but for foreigners the idea that another nation can commandeer the Internet, cut them off from it, or render it unusable is totally shocking, and not surprisingly, a source of no small consternation.

When reading through the bill, one can’t notice how frankly it claims such enormous powers, or imagine how shocked the entire planet would be if Sen. Lieberman proposed the same measures without adding the prefix “cyber” to every few words. Couching it as a technical matter, with the usual technical ignorance of a Congressman thrown in for good measure, is a way to hide exactly how sweeping the new powers would truly be.

In fact Sen. Lieberman insisted that the very fact that the internet is now “a necessity of modern life” was the justification behind his bill. We can’t, it seems, have billions of people worldwide living a modern life without the president’s imprimatur

Sightings.com Is Back!

In 1994, Jeff Rense created his award-winning radio program in Santa Barbara, covering the UFO and Paranormal field in addition to a carefully-selected number of geopolitical, health and other eclectic topics. The program was called ‘The End Of The Line with Jeff Rense’ and Jeff still uses that same name as his subtitle after 17 years on the air.

During this time, Jeff also launched his famed Sightings.com website to expand upon the program and to explore and develop the exploding potential of the internet. In fact, Jeff was a primary pioneer in the interactive use of a live, nationally-syndicat ed radio talk program and an interactive website working in tandem to present leading and controversial personalities and information.

While with Premiere, Jeff’s Sightings On Radio and Sightings.com successfully rivaled the immensely popular Coast-to-Coast show and website… until Jeff realized that world events and geopolitical subjects were moving far too fast and growing far too serious to have them stand behind a generally paranormal venue. After 12 years as an award-winning network affiliate television news director and anchorman, Jeff was growing more and more determined to push back, hard, at the mass of propaganda and mind control the controlled mainstream media had become.

So, in 1999, Jeff changed course and began to roll out an information super-storm which spanned his program, now the Jeff Rense Program and his enormously popular net site, now renamed Rense.com… which became the internet’s first truly ‘alternative’ news forum featuring views, commentary and information of national and international substance and importance found virtually nowhere else.

Now, to start the second decade of the new century, Jeff Rense has joined forces with the inimitable, remarkable Brian Vike, to re-launch Sightings.com as its own unique research and reporting platform expressly devoted to the UFO, ET and paranormal genres. Brian, through many years of intensely devoted efforts through his HBCC UFO Research site, has amassed an enormous database of encounters and reports, second only to Peter Davenport’s 15 years of meticulously recorded and reported treasury of UFO sightings and events of often highest strangeness.

The UFO issue – which Jeff often refers to as the most important of all – is so dynamically interwoven into real-world affairs that it deserves its own venue of this nature and scope. So long as we remain in a struggle against controlling oligarchies determined to drown the public in lies, disinformation, treasonous subterfuge and mind-control, the insulting, vile UFO cover-up remains a central element in the planned deception and manipulation of essential realities to which every person should be firmly awakened. To this end, Sightings.com renews its vigorous role in shining light into the darkness and illuminating this profoundly important issue of truly cosmic proportions.

Sightings.com hopes to help expand the awareness of the cosmic conspiracy, and further assist in enlightening the public to what many astronauts, astrophysicists, airline pilots and military aviators have repeatedly asserted… that ET visitation and UFOs are REAL. We hope you’ll stop in often and participate with us on this ongoing journey.

Our best,
Brian Vike

Historic Victory at Oakland Port –
Israeli Ship Blocked from Unloading

Facebook button

Oakland port action 387×246

Oakland port action 2

In a historic action and unprecedented action today, over 800 labor and community activists blocked the gates of the Oakland docks in the early morning hours, prompting longshore workers to refuse to cross the picketlines where they were scheduled to unload an Israeli ship.

From 5:30 am to 9:30 am, a militant and spirited protest was held in front of four gates of the Stevedore Services of America, with people chanting non-stop, “Free, Free Palestine, Don’t Cross the Picket Line,” and “An injury to one is an injury to all, bring down the apartheid wall.”

Citing the health and safety provisions of their contract, the International Longshore and Warehouse Union workers refused to cross the picketline to report for duty.

Between 8:30 and 9:00 am, an emergency arbitration was conducted at the Maersk parking lot nearby, with an “instant” arbitrator called to the site to rule on whether the workers could refuse to cross the picketline without disciplinary measure.

At 9:15 a.m, after again reviewing the protests of hundreds at each gate, the arbitrator ruled in favor of the union that it was indeed unsafe for the workers to enter the docks.

To loud cheers of “Long Live Palestine!” Jess Ghannam of Free Palestine Alliance and Richard Becker of the ANSWER Coalition announced the victory. Ghannam said, “This is truly historic, never before has an Israeli ship been blocked in the United States!”

The news that a container ship from the Zim Israeli shipping line was scheduled to arrive in the Bay Area today has sparked a tremendous outpouring of solidarity for Palestine, especially in the aftermath of the Israeli massacre of volunteers bringing humanitarian aid to Gaza on May 31.

With 10 days advance notice of the ship’s arrival, the emergency “Labor/Community Committee in Solidarity with the Palestinian People” was set up. On Wednesday, some 110 people from unions and community came to help organize logistics, outreach and community support. Initiating organizations included the Al-Awda Palestine Right to Return Coalition, the ANSWER Coalition, the Bay Area Labor Chapter of USLAW and the Bay Area Labor Committee for Peace & Justice.

This week the San Francisco Labor Council and Alameda Labor Council passed resounding resolutions denouncing Israel’s blockade of Gaza. Both councils sent out public notices of the dock action.

The ILWU has a proud history of extending its solidarity to struggling peoples the world over. In 1984, as the Black masses of South Africa were engaged in an intense struggle against South African apartheid, the ILWU refused for a record-setting 10 days to unload cargo from the South African “Ned Lloyd” ship. Despite million-dollar fines imposed on the union, the longshore workers held strong, providing a tremendous boost to the anti-apartheid movement.

Today’s Oakland action, in the sixth largest port in the United States, is the first of several protests and work stoppages planned around the world, including Norway, Sweden and South Africa. It is sure to inspire others to do the same.

The goal is for a 24-hour shutdown of the docks where the Israeli ship is docked, so the protest is planned again for 4:30 p.m. Click here for details of the 4:30 p.m. protest.

Subject: Act now to stop executive-order amnesty

From: Roy Beck, President, NumbersUSA
Date: Tuesday 22JUN2010 9 a.m. EDT

OBAMA ADMINISTRATION CONSIDERING EXECUTIVE-ORDER AMNESTY FOR MILLIONS BECAUSE CAN’T GET VOTES IN CONGRESS

PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE THE ONLY WAY TO FIGHT THIS

This is a true red-alert danger. Read below for background, but please take action immediately.

TAKE ACTION: Send faxes

to your 3 Members of Congress that warn them of the plot and urge them to speak out against it.

http://www.numbersusa.com/faxes?ID=12309

Your great success in keeping Congress from voting on a mass amnesty this year has stirred up a new threat.

Seeing that most Members of Congress are scared to death to vote for an amnesty in an election year, Administration officials are working on ways to do a de facto amnesty without involving Congress.

We at NumbersUSA have been hearing about this behind the scenes for a few weeks now but haven’t had solid enough evidence to mount a national mobilization against. Now, the whispering has erupted with an open letter to the President from 8 U.S. Senators (see below my signature) spelling out the details known thus far.

In a nutshell, there is discussion going on within the Administration about stopping nearly all deportations, presumably until “comprehensive immigration reform” can be passed to give illegal aliens full work and residency rights permanently.

I am guessing that this is what religious leaders were hinting at the Brookings conference I attended last week. They indicated that they had been talking with Administration officials about a way to help illegal aliens without having to deal with Congress. They then said they had better not say any more about it.

Friends, U.S. Presidents have proven whether Republican or Democrat that they are capable of doing almost anything they please until they come up for re-election. Only an incredible outburst of outrage from the public can stop the Administration from doing a de facto amnesty all by itself.

Your faxing today is just the first part of the outburst that we are mobilizing.

We need all 535 Members of Congress to know about the De Facto Amnesty Plot — and to know that you know. We want Democrats in Congress to begin to tell their Leaders and the White House that even the hint that this amnesty could happen will hurt their chances of winning in the fall. We want Republicans to start threatening to use the Plot as a campaign issue.

We want the White House to publicly promise that it will NOT unilaterally proclaim an amnesty. Short of that, we want to see the White House forced to deny over and over that such a plot is even underway.

Send the faxes now.

We will come back later with more actions to take.

THANKS,

Roy Beck’s signature

Roy Beck, President NumbersUSA

LETTER FROM 8 SENATORS

Dear President Obama:

We understand that there’s a push for your Administration to develop a plan to unilaterally extend either deferred action or parole to millions of illegal aliens in the United States. We understand that the Administration may include aliens who have willfully overstayed their visas or filed for benefits knowing that they will not be eligible for a status for years to come. We understand that deferred action and parole are discretionary actions reserved for individual cases that present unusual, emergent or humanitarian circumstances. Deferred action and parole were not intended to be used to confer a status or offer protection to large groups of illegal aliens, even if the agency claims that they look at each case on a “case-by-case” basis.

While we agree our immigration laws need to be fixed, we are deeply concerned about the potential expansion of deferred action or parole for a large illegal alien population. While deferred action and parole are Executive Branch authorities, they should not be used to circumvent Congress’ constitutional authority to legislate immigration policy, particularly as it relates to the illegal population in the United States.

The Administration would be wise to abandon any plans for deferred action or parole for the illegal population. Such a move would further erode the American public’s confidence in the federal government and its commitment to securing the borders and enforcing the laws already on the books.

We would appreciate receiving a commitment that the Administration has no plans to use either authority to change the current position of a large group of illegal aliens already in the United States, and ask that you respond to us about this matter as soon as possible.

End These Secret Meetings!

Dear Friend,

The Wall Street Journal just revealed that the FCC has been convening secret backroom meetings with phone and cable lobbyists to cut a deal on Net Neutrality.

The closed-door meetings have included a small group of lobbyists from AT&T, Verizon and Google. The goal, according to insiders, is to “reach consensus” on rules of the road for the Internet.

This is outrageous. The FCC can’t ignore the public’s demand for Net Neutrality and then quietly give control over the Internet to a few massive corporations.

Tell Obama and the FCC: Stop These Secret Meetings

President Obama pledged to “take a back seat to no one” in his support for Net Neutrality. To head the FCC, he appointed Julius Genachowski, the man who crafted his pro-Net Neutrality platform in 2008.

But even after millions of people joined Obama’s call for Net Neutrality, FCC staff is huddling with industry lobbyists in secret to cut a deal that could leave the free and open Internet in jeopardy.

This plot is all too familiar. We’ve seen it before, during the BP oil disaster and the subprime mortgage meltdown, when government officials put the interests of big business ahead of those of the public.

Now, the same thing is happening to the Internet. We can’t let the one agency tasked with oversight of communications strike secret deals that undermine Net Neutrality.

Don’t Let Lobbyists Determine the Future of the Internet

Sign our letter to President Obama and the FCC to end the secret meetings and guarantee that the public — including the tens of millions of Americans who use the Internet every day and in every way — is given a seat at the table.

Thank you,

TomDispatch.com: A Regular Antidote to the Mainstream Media

June 22, 2010
Tomgram: Michael Klare, The Coming Era of Energy Disasters

Isn’t it strange that, no matter how terrible the news from the Gulf, the media still can’t help offering a lurking, BP-influenced narrative of hope? Here’s a recent headline

from my hometown paper, for instance: “Signs of Hope as BP Captures Record Oil Amounts.” The piece is based on a BP report that, last Thursday, its woefully inadequate

, ill-fitting “top hat” had captured more than 25,000 barrels of the gushing oil — that is, five times

more than it long claimed was spewing from its busted well (25 times more than it originally suggested).

With semi-official estimates in the range of 35,000-60,000 barrels escaping a day (and those numbers regularly on the rise), this represents a strange version of hopeful news. Ominously enough, by the end of July, with a new, larger, “tighter” cap theoretically in place, BP is aiming to capture up to 80,000 barrels

a day (that is, 20,000 barrels more than it has publicly acknowledged

might possibly be spewing from the floor of the Gulf). In all such articles, the real narrative of hope, however, involves the relief wells, the first of which is now within “200 feet” of the busted well. Usually, the date for one of those wells to plug the leak is given as “early August” or “mid-August” and it’s regularly said that the drilling of those wells is advancing “ahead of schedule.”

Whatever “signs of hope” do exist, however, they’re already badly beslimed by on-gushing reality. On the very day that BP announced its 25,000-barrel capture, huge amounts of methane

were also reported to be pouring into the Gulf. Until now, this had evidently been largely overlooked (or under-reported), even though methane in high concentrations can deplete water of its oxygen and so suffocate marine life, creating vast dead zones and inhibiting the natural breakdown of the spilling oil. According to

John Kessler, a Texas A&M oceanographer, the Deepwater Horizon spill represents “the most vigorous methane eruption in modern human history.”

Meanwhile, if you read carefully, you’ll note that those relief wells are no sure thing. They might not do the job until the fall or even, worst-case scenario, Christmas

, or (even-worse-case scenario) they might fail entirely

, leaving the well to spew oil and natural gas (with its methane) for an estimated

two to four more years. And let’s not forget general bad weather

, as well as hurricane season bearing down on the Gulf, the possibility that the well’s casing

might be cracking or eroding — meaning even more spillage or seepage — and that a “clean-up” in which, in Interior Secretary Ken Salazar’s words, the Gulf ecosystem would be “restored and made whole,” may not, as Naomi Klein wrote recently

, be “remotely possible, at least not in a time frame we can easily wrap our heads around.”

Worse yet, the disaster in the Gulf is largely being dealt with as a one-shot nightmare. It isn’t. Consider our potential American Chernobyl

as just a precursor to a future filled with “unexpected” energy mega-disasters, as Michael Klare, TomDispatch regular

and author of the invaluable Rising Powers, Shrinking Planet

, suggests. (To catch him discussing our dystopian energy future on the latest TomCast audio interview, click here

BP-Style Extreme Energy Nightmares to Come
Four Scenarios for the Next Energy Mega-Disaster
By Michael T. Klare

On June 15th, in their testimony

before the House Energy and Commerce Committee, the chief executives of America’s leading oil companies argued that BP’s Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico was an aberration — something that would not have occurred with proper corporate oversight and will not happen again once proper safeguards are put in place. This is fallacious, if not an outright lie. The Deep Horizon explosion was the inevitable result of a relentless effort to extract oil from ever deeper and more hazardous locations. In fact, as long as the industry continues its relentless, reckless pursuit of “extreme energy”

— oil, natural gas, coal, and uranium obtained from geologically, environmentally, and politically unsafe areas — more such calamities are destined to occur.

Fighting talk: The new propaganda
By Robert Fisk

Following the latest in semantics on the news? Journalism and the Israeli government are in love again. It’s Islamic terror, Turkish terror, Hamas terror, Islamic Jihad terror, Hezbollah terror, activist terror, war on terror, Palestinian terror, Muslim terror, Iranian terror, Syrian terror, anti-Semitic terror…

But I am doing the Israelis an injustice. Their lexicon, and that of the White House most of the time and our reporters’ lexicon, is the same. Yes, let’s be fair to the Israelis. Their lexicon goes like this: Terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror.

How many times did I just use the word “terror”? Twenty. But it might as well be 60, or 100, or 1,000, or a million. We are in love with the word, seduced by it, fixated by it, attacked by it, assaulted by it, raped by it, committed to it. It is love and sadism and death in one double syllable, the prime time-theme song, the opening of every television symphony, the headline of every page, a punctuation mark in our journalism, a semicolon, a comma, our most powerful full stop. “Terror, terror, terror, terror”. Each repetition justifies its predecessor.

Most of all, it’s about the terror of power and the power of terror. Power and terror have become interchangeable. We journalists have let this happen. Our language has become not just a debased ally, but a full verbal partner in the language of governments and armies and generals and weapons. Remember the “bunker buster” and the “Scud buster” and the “target-rich environment” in the Gulf War (Part One)? Forget about “weapons of mass destruction”. Too obviously silly. But “WMD” in the Gulf War (Part Two) had a power of its own, a secret code genetic, perhaps, like DNA for something that would reap terror, terror, terror, terror, terror. “45 Minutes to Terror”.

Power and the media are not just about cosy relationships between journalists and political leaders, between editors and presidents. They are not just about the parasitic-osmotic relationship between supposedly honourable reporters and the nexus of power that runs between White House and State Department and Pentagon, between Downing Street and the Foreign Office and the Ministry of Defence, between America and Israel.

In the Western context, power and the media is about words and the use of words. It is about semantics. It is about the employment of phrases and their origins. And it is about the misuse of history, and about our ignorance of history. More and more today, we journalists have become prisoners of the language of power. Is this because we no longer care about linguistics or semantics? Is this because laptops “correct” our spelling, “trim” our grammar so that our sentences so often turn out to be identical to those of our rulers? Is this why newspaper editorials today often sound like political speeches?

For two decades now, the US and British and Israeli and Palestinian leaderships have used the words “peace process” to define the hopeless, inadequate, dishonourable agreement that allowed the US and Israel to dominate whatever slivers of land would be given to an occupied people. I first queried this expression, and its provenance, at the time of Oslo although how easily we forget that the secret surrenders at Oslo were themselves a conspiracy without any legal basis.

Poor old Oslo, I always think. What did Oslo ever do to deserve this? It was the White House agreement that sealed this preposterous and dubious treaty in which refugees, borders, Israeli colonies, even timetables were to be delayed until they could no longer be negotiated.

And how easily we forget the White House lawn though, yes, we remember the images upon which it was Clinton who quoted from the Koran, and Arafat who chose to say: “Thank you, thank you, thank you, Mr President.” And what did we call this nonsense afterwards? Yes, it was “a moment of history”! Was it? Was it so?

Do you remember what Arafat called it? “The peace of the brave”. But I don’t remember any of us pointing out that “the peace of the brave” was used by General de Gaulle about the end of the Algerian war. The French lost the war in Algeria. We did not spot this extraordinary irony.

Same again today. We Western journalists used yet again by our masters have been reporting our jolly generals in Afghanistan, as saying their war can only be won with a “hearts and minds” campaign. No one asked them the obvious question: Wasn’t this the very same phrase used about Vietnamese civilians in the Vietnam War? And didn’t we didn’t the West lose the war in Vietnam? Yet now we Western journalists are using about Afghanistan the phrase “hearts and minds” in our reports as if it is a new dictionary definition, rather than a symbol of defeat for the second time in four decades.

Just look at the individual words we have recently co-opted from the US military. When we Westerners find that “our” enemies al-Qa’ida, for example, or the Taliban have set off more bombs and staged more attacks than usual, we call it “a spike in violence”.

Ah yes, a “spike”! A “spike” is a word first used in this context, according to my files, by a brigadier general in the Baghdad Green Zone in 2004. Yet now we use that phrase, we extemporise on it, we relay it on the air as our phrase, our journalistic invention. We are using, quite literally, an expression created for us by the Pentagon. A spike, of course, goes sharply up then sharply downwards. A “spike in violence” therefore avoids the ominous use of the words “increase in violence” for an increase, of course, might not go down again afterwards.

Now again, when US generals refer to a sudden increase in their forces for an assault on Fallujah or central Baghdad or Kandahar a mass movement of soldiers brought into Muslim countries by the tens of thousands they call this a “surge”. And a surge, like a tsunami, or any other natural phenomena, can be devastating in its effects. What these “surges” really are to use the real words of serious journalism are reinforcements. And reinforcements are sent to conflicts when armies are losing those wars. But our television and newspaper boys and girls are still talking about “surges” without any attribution at all. The Pentagon wins again.

Meanwhile the “peace process” collapsed. Therefore our leaders or “key players” as we like to call them tried to make it work again. The process had to be put “back on track”. It was a train, you see. The carriages had come off the line. The Clinton administration first used this phrase, then the Israelis, then the BBC. But there was a problem when the “peace process” had repeatedly been put “back on track” but still came off the line. So we produced a “road map” run by a Quartet and led by our old Friend of God, Tony Blair, who in an obscenity of history we now refer to as a “peace envoy”. But the “road map” isn’t working. And now, I notice, the old “peace process” is back in our newspapers and on our television screens. And earlier this month, on CNN, one of those boring old fogies whom the TV boys and girls call “experts” told us again that the “peace process” was being put “back on track” because of the opening of “indirect talks” between Israelis and Palestinians. This isn’t just about clichés this is preposterous journalism. There is no battle between the media and power; through language, we, the media, have become them.

Here’s another piece of media cowardice that makes my 63-year-old teeth grind together after 34 years of eating humus and tahina in the Middle East. We are told, in many analysis features, that what we have to deal with in the Middle East are “competing narratives”. How very cosy. There’s no justice, no injustice, just a couple of people who tell different history stories. “Competing narratives” now regularly pop up in the British press.

The phrase, from the false language of anthropology, deletes the possibility that one group of people in the Middle East, for example is occupied, while another is doing the occupying. Again, no justice, no injustice, no oppression or oppressing, just some friendly “competing narratives”, a football match, if you like, a level playing field because the two sides are are they not? “in competition”. And two sides have to be given equal time in every story.

So an “occupation” becomes a “dispute”. Thus a “wall” becomes a “fence” or “security barrier”. Thus Israeli acts of colonisation of Arab land, contrary to all international law, become “settlements” or “outposts” or “Jewish neighbourhoods”. It was Colin Powell, in his starring, powerless appearance as Secretary of State to George W Bush, who told US diplomats to refer to occupied Palestinian land as “disputed land” and that was good enough for most of the US media. There are no “competing narratives”, of course, between the US military and the Taliban. When there are, you’ll know the West has lost.

But I’ll give you an example of how “competing narratives” come undone. In April, I gave a lecture in Toronto to mark the 95th anniversary of the 1915 Armenian genocide, the deliberate mass murder of 1.5 million Armenian Christians by the Ottoman Turkish army and militia. Before my talk, I was interviewed on Canadian Television, CTV, which also owns Toronto’s Globe and Mail newspaper. And from the start, I could see that the interviewer had a problem. Canada has a large Armenian community. But Toronto also has a large Turkish community. And the Turks, as the Globe and Mail always tell us, “hotly dispute” that this was a genocide.

So the interviewer called the genocide “deadly massacres”. Of course, I spotted her specific problem straight away. She couldn’t call the massacres a “genocide”, because the Turkish community would be outraged. But she sensed that “massacres” on its own especially with the gruesome studio background photographs of dead Armenians was not quite up to defining a million and a half murdered human beings. Hence the “deadly massacres”. How odd! If there are “deadly” massacres, are there some massacres which are not “deadly”, from which the victims walk away alive? It was a ludicrous tautology.

Yet the use of the language of power of its beacon words and its beacon phrases goes on among us still. How many times have I heard Western reporters talking about “foreign fighters” in Afghanistan? They are referring, of course, to the various Arab groups supposedly helping the Taliban. We heard the same story from Iraq. Saudis, Jordanians, Palestinian, Chechen fighters, of course. The generals called them “foreign fighters”. Immediately, we Western reporters did the same. Calling them “foreign fighters” meant they were an invading force. But not once ever have I heard a mainstream Western television station refer to the fact that there are at least 150,000 “foreign fighters” in Afghanistan, and that all of them happen to be wearing American, British and other NATO uniforms. It is “we” who are the real “foreign fighters”.

Similarly, the pernicious phrase “Af-Pak” as racist as it is politically dishonest is now used by reporters, although it was originally a creation of the US State Department on the day Richard Holbrooke was appointed special US representative to Afghanistan and Pakistan. But the phrase avoids the use of the word “India” whose influence in Afghanistan and whose presence in Afghanistan, is a vital part of the story. Furthermore, “Af-Pak” by deleting India effectively deleted the whole Kashmir crisis from the conflict in south-east Asia. It thus deprived Pakistan of any say in US local policy on Kashmir after all, Holbrooke was made the “Af-Pak” envoy, specifically forbidden from discussing Kashmir. Thus the phrase “Af-Pak”, which completely avoids the tragedy of Kashmir too many “competing narratives”, perhaps? means that when we journalists use the same phrase, “Af-Pak”, which was surely created for us journalists, we are doing the State Department’s work.

Now let’s look at history. Our leaders love history. Most of all, they love the Second World War. In 2003, George W Bush thought he was Churchill. True, Bush had spent the Vietnam War protecting the skies of Texas from the Vietcong. But now, in 2003, he was standing up to the “appeasers” who did not want a war with Saddam who was, of course, “the Hitler of the Tigris”. The appeasers were the British who didn’t want to fight Nazi Germany in 1938. Blair, of course, also tried on Churchill’s waistcoat and jacket for size. No “appeaser” he. America was Britain’s oldest ally, he proclaimed and both Bush and Blair reminded journalists that the US had stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Britain in her hour of need in 1940.

But none of this was true. Britain’s oldest ally was not the United States. It was Portugal, a neutral fascist state during the Second World War, which flew its national flags at half-mast when Hitler died (even the Irish didn’t do that).

Nor did America fight alongside Britain in her hour of need in 1940, when Hitler threatened invasion and the Luftwaffe blitzed London. No, in 1940 America was enjoying a very profitable period of neutrality, and did not join Britain in the war until Japan attacked the US naval base at Pearl Harbour in December 1941. Similarly, back in 1956, Eden called Nasser the “Mussolini of the Nile”. A bad mistake. Nasser was loved by the Arabs, not hated as Mussolini was by the majority of Africans, especially the Arab Libyans. The Mussolini parallel was not challenged or questioned by the British press. And we all know what happened at Suez in 1956. When it comes to history, we journalists let the presidents and prime ministers take us for a ride.

Yet the most dangerous side of our new semantic war, our use of the words of power though it is not a war, since we have largely surrendered is that it isolates us from our viewers and readers. They are not stupid. They understand words in many cases I fear better than we do. History, too. They know that we are drawing our vocabulary from the language of generals and presidents, from the so-called elites, from the arrogance of the Brookings Institute experts, or those of those of the Rand Corporation. Thus we have become part of this language.

Over the past two weeks, as foreigners humanitarians or “activist terrorists” tried to take food and medicines by sea to the hungry Palestinians of Gaza, we journalists should have been reminding our viewers and listeners of a long-ago day when America and Britain went to the aid of a surrounded people, bringing food and fuel our own servicemen dying as they did so to help a starving population. That population had been surrounded by a fence erected by a brutal army which wished to starve the people into submission. The army was Russian. The city was Berlin. The wall was to come later. The people had been our enemies only three years earlier. Yet we flew the Berlin airlift to save them. Now look at Gaza today: which Western journalist since we love historical parallels has even mentioned 1948 Berlin in the context of Gaza?

Instead, what did we get? “Activists” who turned into “armed activists” the moment they opposed the Israeli army’s boarding parties. How dare these men upset the lexicon? Their punishment was obvious. They became “terrorists”. And the Israeli raids in which “activists” were killed (another proof of their “terrorism”) then became “deadly” raids. In this case, “deadly” was more excusable than it had been on CTV nine dead men of Turkish origin being slightly fewer than a million and a half murdered Armenians in 1915. But it was interesting that the Israelis who for their own political reasons had hitherto shamefully gone along with the Turkish denial now suddenly wanted to inform the world of the 1915 Armenian genocide. This provoked an understandable frisson among many of our colleagues. Journalists who have regularly ducked all mention of the 20th century’s first Holocaust unless they could also refer to the way in which the Turks “hotly dispute” the genocide label (ergo the Toronto Globe and Mail) could suddenly refer to it. Israel’s new-found historical interest made the subject legitimate, though almost all reports managed to avoid any explanation of what actually happened in 1915.

And what did the Israeli seaborne raid become? It became a “botched” raid. Botched is a lovely word. It began as a German-origin Middle English word, “bocchen”, which meant to “repair badly”. And we more or less kept to that definition until our journalistic lexicon advisors changed its meaning. Schoolchildren “botch” an exam. We could “botch” a piece of sewing, an attempt to repair a piece of material. We could even botch an attempt to persuade our boss to give us a raise. But now we “botch” a military operation. It wasn’t a disaster. It wasn’t a catastrophe. It just killed some Turks.

So, given the bad publicity, the Israelis just “botched” the raid. Weirdly, the last time reporters and governments utilised this particular word followed Israel’s attempt to kill the Hamas leader, Khaled Meshaal, in the streets of Amman. In this case, Israel’s professional assassins were caught after trying to poison Meshaal, and King Hussain forced the then Israeli prime minister (a certain B Netanyahu) to provide the antidote (and to let a lot of Hamas “terrorists” out of jail). Meshaal’s life was saved.

But for Israel and its obedient Western journalists this became a “botched attempt” on Meshaal’s life. Not because he wasn’t meant to die, but because Israel failed to kill him. You can thus “botch” an operation by killing Turks or you can “botch” an operation by not killing a Palestinian.

How do we break with the language of power? It is certainly killing us. That, I suspect, is one reason why readers have turned away from the “mainstream” press to the internet. Not because the net is free, but because readers know they have been lied to and conned; they know that what they watch and what they read in newspapers is an extension of what they hear from the Pentagon or the Israeli government, that our words have become synonymous with the language of a government-approved, careful middle ground, which obscures the truth as surely as it makes us political and military allies of all major Western governments.

Many of my colleagues on various Western newspapers would ultimately risk their jobs if they were constantly to challenge the false reality of news journalism, the nexus of media-government power. How many news organisations thought to run footage, at the time of the Gaza disaster, of the airlift to break the blockade of Berlin? Did the BBC?

The hell they did! We prefer “competing narratives”. Politicians didn’t want I told the Doha meeting on 11 May the Gaza voyage to reach its destination, “be its end successful, farcical or tragic”. We believe in the “peace process”, the “road map”. Keep the “fence” around the Palestinians. Let the “key players” sort it out. And remember what this is all about: “Terror, terror, terror, terror, terror, terror.”

Bradley Manning arrested for leaking murder video

June 23, 2010

“From what I’ve heard so far of (Wikileaks co-founder Julian) Assange and (Army Pfc Bradley) Manning,… they are two new heroes of mine.” -Daniel Ellsberg, famous whistle-blower of the Pentagon Papers

In April, Wikileaks.org

released a notorious video depicting a U.S. helicopter attack resulting in the killing of 11 unarmed Iraqi civilians, including two Reuters employees. The video, titled “Collateral Murder” was widely posted and reported on. Last week, the U.S. military arrested 22-year-old Pfc Bradley Manning, an Army intelligence analyst who allegedly took credit for leaking the video. Lawyers for Wikileaks have not yet been allowed access to Bradley, who is currently being held in pretrial confinement in Kuwait. Courage to Resist’s primary concern is that Bradley has access to civilian legal representation to fight what are expected to be very serious charges at court martial. We expect to collaborate with many concerned organizations and individuals in order to best support Bradley legally and politically.

Message from released objector Nicole Mitchell

June 20, 2010

I just wanted to give a big thank you for posting an outreach for support in regard to my recent incarceration after being AWOL. I was let out just this past Saturday, June 12th and now I am in the process of separating from the Army at last! I received quite a few letters of support from people across all spans of the US. Those letters truly helped me to stay positive not just about my reasons for being confined, but about being able to remain stable outside of the military. It is good to be reminded that there is such a strong community out there that won’t look at the terms of my discharge like the military claims. (Check out Nicole’s Myspace music page

CLAIMING YOUR ANCESTORS LANDS — ALLODIAL ISSUES…..

The following article was posted in the IOLANI – The Royal Hawk.

This message is being sent again because the EXHIBIT section was not covered.

The legal documents should contain the following in the following order:

1) Cover page (covers ancestors name, RP/Royal Patent Number, LCA/ Land Commission Award number

2) Affidavit/Certification (family genealogies)

3) Heirs and Assigns page

a. RP/Royal Patent LCA/Land Commission Award brief history (shows names of deceased owners and successors)

(ask the Archivist how to obtain your survey notes….. also ask how to look at the books available documenting awards from the Great Mahele/ Kamehameha III period, an extra step to take is to find out the testimonies in regards to the parcel(s)/lands belonging to your families.

5) JURAT, NOTARY page

6) Xerox two (2) or more sets. The notary usually wants to do only two (2) for a set. If more copies are needed for family members, you could make copies after the notary signs the documents, and even after the filing is completed.

7) obtain a notary signature from your Credit Union, bank — First Hawaiian Bank has a preferred customer account that you may be able to qualify for……worth it because the cost of a Notary will be nothing/free……….at the Credit Unions and some banks also give free notary signature……cousin paid about $50 a couple of weeks ago —$5 per notary signature.

News/Clinton- Scandals/ Riadi-Hawaiian_Link/ greg.htmGreg states that “the number-one purveyor of broadcast news in this
country– NBC, with both MSNBC and CNBC under its wing, as well as NBC news and a variety of “news magazines”– is now owned and controlled by General Electric, one of the nation’s largest defense contractors. Is it not significant that as GE’s various media subsidiaries predictably lined up to cheerlead the use of U.S. military force in Kosovo, it was at the same time posting substantial profits from the sale of the high tech of modern

warfare it so shamelessly
glorifies?..

Dear MoveOn member,

We struggled with whether or not to share this photo, taken of a bird on the beach at East Grand Terre Island, LA on Thursday. It's hard to look at.

But we have to face where our addiction to oil has taken us—and this photo brings that home: (Click here

Kamehameha III and Mikahela Kekauonohi claims regarding Honouliuli(etc.), Ewa, Oahu, Hawaii

Royal persons are not subject to the laws. We are and remain the legal owners of these, and other lands, water, resources, etc.

Historical evidence, genealogy(ies) have been documented and are available at http://www.iolani.wordpress.com

or see yahoogroups.com

under the hawaiian genealogy society for more information posted regarding all lands owned by our Royal families who are not subject to the laws, and whose ancestors were under duress, stress, usurpation, and coercion, including Queen Liliuokalani in 1893.

James Campbell and his descendants, the Kawananakoa's have criminally claimed lands that they do not own. Their closure of their Trust and conveyances, etc. to the James Campbell Land Company and others remain dubious claims to lands which has owners who were not treasonous to the Hawaiian Kingdom, and moved with the conspirators/pirates documented. The Kawananakoa's including Abigail Ellerbrock, and the Lamberts, et. als. criminally claimed private properties of Royal families whose genealogies supersede their claims of being Royals, additionally, their ancestors were treasonous persons, documented in conspiracies against the Queen, her subjects and our families. It's not O.K. for the Kawananakoa's to ride on our families claims.

Additionally, the claims of a Fake State, the entity Provisional government, evolved into a Republic, a Territory, and a Fake State, supported by a nation -U.S., their Congress, Military, England, and the Morgan(etc.) bankers which claimed Prvate Properties and called it Public Lands are in parts lands criminally claimed by wicked, treasonous, conspirators, plotters against our families, our people, our Queen Liliuokalani discovered through 30 + years of research on our history, your history, the history abroad, our families, the hidden Royal family lines, laws, and so forth.

Oppositions remain in the entity State of Hawaii Governor Linda Lingle in claiming the surfing zones which is held under the jurisdiction of our konohiki ancestor David Keawe/DW Pauahi for Waikiki; and, North Shore which is held under the jurisdiction of our konohiki family member Victoria Kamamalu who was the sister of our ancestor(s) and the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estates Trustees are not related to us but a consortium of thieves, scoundrels, criminal deviants who conspired against our families, our Queen and our people.

Maintaining our interests in our families, our Royal families private properties, along with the water rights, resources, etc. in our Hawaiian archipelago,

Sincerely,

Amelia Gora, a Royal person

"Honouliuli Forest Reserve dedicated today

By Associated Press

POSTED: 06:34 a.m. HST, Jun 02, 2010

The state and the Trust for Public Land will dedicate the Honouliuli Forest Reserve today.

The trust is handing over the 3,500-acre tract to state forest managers to help protect Oahu's watershed and wildlife habitat.

The trust bought the land from the James Campbell Co.

The land covers a lowland forest on the eastern slope of the Waianae Mountain Range. It's home to 35 threatened and endangered species, including 16 found nowhere else in the world.

The land is also part of the watershed feeding the Pearl Harbor Aquifer, the largest drinking water resource on Oahu.

U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye and Senate President Colleen Hanabusa are joining Board of Land and Natural Resources Chairwoman Laura Thielen at today's dedication.

"New name for Arizona Memorial Museum Association announced

Advertiser Staff

The nonprofit organization that has long supported the USS Arizona Memorial has changed its name to reflect its broadening mission.

The Arizona Memorial Museum Association on Tuesday changed its name to Pacific Historic Parks.

The association was created in 1979 as a nonprofit cooperating association with the National Park Service to support and fund educational programs, museum displays and exhibits, and interpretive programs for the USS Arizona Memorial.

Many charter members of the association, originally from the Fleet Reserve Association, had been involved in the fundraising for the construction of the USS Arizona Memorial in 1961 and the original visitor center in 1980, officials said.

The Arizona Memorial visitor center now is part of the World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument.

The Arizona Memorial Museum Association grew over the years to support interpretive and visitor activities at three additional national parks: American Memorial Park on Saipan; War in the Pacific National Historical Park on Guam; and Kalaupapa National Historical Park on Moloka'i.

"Our association's new name, Pacific Historic Parks, better reflects our expanded scope of support at historical sites throughout the Pacific," said chairman George Sullivan. "Although our name has changed, our mission remains the same. We will continue to preserve and support these historical landmarks …"."

"Lingle's executive order establishes two surfing reserves in Hawaii

Advertiser Staff

Gov. Linda Lingle established surfing reserves by executive order today, resurrecting a measure killed by lawmakers in what could be a first.

The move was a symbolic gesture of support for retiring Republican state Sen. Fred Hemmings, whose bill establishing surfing reserves was "recommitted" in the last day of the legislative session in a move Republicans have taken offense to.

Political onlookers have said they couldn't recall a governor ever issuing an executive order to resurrect a bill killed by lawmakers.

The executive order sets up the reserves, which essentially highlight two surfing spots — in Waikiki and the North Shore — as important in the world of surfing.

The order doesn't have any appropriation, and doesn't change any enforcement or other rules.

"It's like declaring Diamond Head a national monument," said Hemmings, in a news conference today."

World Conspirators Meet in Spain

Many of the most powerful people in the world, including heads of state, foreign ministers, heads of big banks, and leaders of the largest corporations, regularly have secret meetings where they plan to control the world. The Media generally hides these meetings from the public, although the English newspaper The Guardian, Russian Television News, and other news sources do report about it.

Bilderberg 2010–Plutocracy Below the Palm Trees

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/blog/2010/jun/02/charlie-skelton-bilderberg-spain

"For a long and luxurious weekend at the Dolce Sitges, relishing its 'new and creative buffet concepts' (a table with food on it), prime ministers will mingle with European royalty, with various EU commissioners, with representatives from Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, AIB, Deutsche Bank, Chase Manhattan and Royal Dutch Shell."

Goldman Sachs, known as "Government Sachs" because so many of its personnel hold high positions in the U.S. Government, is a key player.

What is their plan? It is the end of nations, the end of the white race, the end of Christianity, the end of traditional values, and a new global economy where most people are equal….equally poor and powerless. An American will have the same rights as tribesman in New Guinea or a farmer in the Congo. Everyone will have the same wages and the same medical care and the same pensions (if any). At the top will be the billionaire elite, like the folks at Goldman Sachs, some of the jaded royalty of Europe, some heads of huge international corporations, like BP, the people who run the Media, and some liberal anti-white, anti-traditional value pseudo-intellectuals. There will still be the pretense of democracy, but the controlled Media will tell people what to think, and hate-speech and political correctness laws will muzzle all dissenters and punish them economically.

The world does need a world government to solve the overwhelming problems that threaten our survival. But I have a better idea of how it should be handled.

Here is a list of attendees at the lasting meeting:

Some people claim it is a Jewish conspiracy, but only about 40% of the attendees are Jewish. There are also a few people with old Nazi connections who have attended these meetings too.

I actually like one of them, Professor Niall Ferguson, who has some excellent ideas on history and economics.

hi,

Thank you for posting this article which reveals some interesting people uniting to plan the future, including the Worlds innocents.

Attendee(s)using our Hawaiian Royal Families assets without authority:

Goldman and Sachs – Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates, a pirating, racketeering, criminal Trust based on fraud, criminal conveyances, claims,did invest in them and owns 40%+ interest. The transactions of this Trust created in the Hawaiian Kingdom period has been operating by pirates, conspirators, treasonous persons since 1884 who conspired against Hawaii's Royal Families,Queen Liliuokalani, and her 40,000 subjects (versus the 3,000 treasonous, conspirators supported by the U.S. military, government, Presidents, Morgan bankers, England, and the international bankers).

Trustees claimed to be the heirs, when descendants/heirs of the Royal Families exist. Issues continue. Genocide issue continue. Racketeering, corruption, and problematic issues exposed for the World to see. Ramifications are ongoing.

Attendee affecting the criminal Plundering Upon Innocents in the Middleeast, affecting perpetual Wars for OIL:

Rockefellers are the permanent CEO's of the EXXON Oil Corporation, formerly Standard Oil Company (umbrella monopoly corporation with hundreds/thousands of corporations under their cover), owners of the 911 Twin Towers, and gifted the land for the United Nations which moves towards One World Order/New World Order.

Those who signed the 1822 Secret Treaty of Verona – Austria, France, Russia, Prussia, U.S., England, and the Vatican continue to have members actively pursuing the moves towards One World Order/New World Order.

Belgium, Netherlands, and Spain Monarchs attend, which is interesting because the 1822 Secret Treaty of Verona, seeks to destroy Monarchy governments.

Conspirators of nations meet to be among their compadres, when their citizens can do something about it if they don't want to be SLAVES, be exterminated, imprisoned, etc.

In other words, these groups basically represent the united minority of WARMONGERS, WAR FINANCIERS, scum and scoundrels who would like to enforce their agenda on the masses or the majority.

Message: Research and Study these plotters moving to take away your liberties, enslave you, kill of the environment, poison, make toxic, extermination practices of nuclear weapons such as DU/Depleted Uranium use affecting everyone in the World today …..Watch them and TAKE BACK YOUR GOVERNMENTS……….especially for Americans whose Congressmen and Presidents are treasonous against their own!

aloha.

appears you haven't taken much Sociology or Psychology courses…..or even Social Change/Modernization/Urbanization courses………….

the terminology used over time by the haole are those to deliberately put down, diminish, etc.

such terms used are "children" which makes our people "less than"………don't fall for that move to make our people "less than".

another term is "indigenous" which is recognized by the United Nations as "less than" persons/ groups incapable of ownership of lands, those without entitlement, have nothing, are nothing, and recognized as people who exist with nothing – no ownership of anything…..

you have to get out of thinking American/Amerikkkan.

anytime you need someone to set you on that path of non-violence…..you know some of the Gora's ….some of them will also set you straight as well……we are non-violent, and can give some new meanings to lip service, which is intended to teach varying kinds of people….those who are sweet and tender, and those who are rough, and at times even those who are pilau — what a waste of good energy to interact with those dubious types who don't even live here in the islands.

it is truly amazing to me how our Hawaiian people don't look up their ancestors and go back on their lands, or rent, lease it…………it's irritating to see some of our people stuck and believing the crap that the criminal deviants, pirates around us put out…………….

btw, the heads at the Bureau of Conveyances just last week are discussing the movement of our Hawaiian Kingdom books……if you didn't know already, the intent of the AKAKA BILL is to destroy all the books and transfer all lands once and for all to the U.S.

so, if you have digital cameras folks………howz about working on a project to capture all of the books before the PIRATES criminally discard all?

yes, you've heard it first here…………

btw………why the hell are you talking about Tienaman and other areas that doesn't pertain to us…….my Dad was a seer, like Kamehameha, and he said to stay away from the Chinese…….. maybe i'll say more off of the web…….or ask certain Gora's if they know…….many know more about our ancestors ruling Japan for nearly 300 years than our Hawaiian genealogies….and then certain Gora's know more about our Apache ancestor Geronimo than our Hawaiian ancestors……the fact remains, like marries like……which is why everyone should find out about their roots, etc.

Maintain a neutral, non-violent nation, otherwise, do not link yourself to the Hawaiian Kingdom, because I for one will disclaim anyone with the intent to cause violence. period. end of story.

aloha.

Hawaiian Kingdom Records No. 2010-01050: Kamehameha – My/Our Ancestor from Amelia Gora, a Royal person, and Acting Liaison of Foreign Affair

Greetings President Obama,

The following article is a response to your claimed Proclamation on my/our ancestor Kamehameha of the Hawaiian Kingdom:

REVIEWING U.S. PRESIDENT OBAMA'S RECENT PROCLAMATION ON OUR ANCESTOR: KAMEHAMEHA

Review by Amelia Gora, a Royal person, One of
Kamehameha's descendants (2010)

The following is a Proclamation issued by an illegal U.S. President Obama who was born in the Hawaiian Kingdom. Notes are added for many to follow:

THE WHITE HOUSE
Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release June 10, 2010
KING KAMEHAMEHA DAY, 2010

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION

Two hundred years ago, King Kamehameha the Great brought the Hawaiian Islands together under a unified government. His courage and leadership earned him a legacy as the "Napoleon of the Pacific," and today his humanity is preserved in Ke Kanawai Mamalahoe, or "the Law of the Splintered Paddle." This law protects civilians in times of war and remains enshrined in Hawaii's constitution as "a unique and living symbol of the State's concern for public safety."

Note: This law was created during the Hawaiian Kingdom period, and the entity State of Hawaii, an illegal entity supported by the United States has criminally assumed our peaceful, neutral, non-violent nation claiming concern for public safety when they have played a part in terrorizing Hawaiian Kingdom subjects, their descendants over time.

On this bicentennial King Kamehameha Day, we celebrate the history and heritage of the Aloha State, which has immeasurably enriched our national life and culture. The Hawaiian narrative is one of both profound triumph and, sadly, deep injustice. It is the story of Native Hawaiians oppressed by crippling disease, aborted treaties, and the eventual conquest of their sovereign kingdom. These grim milestones remind us of an unjust time in our history, as well as the many pitfalls in our Nation's long and difficult journey to perfect itself. Yet, through the peaks and valleys of our American story, Hawaii's steadfast sense of community and mutual support shows the progress that results when we are united in a spirit of limitless possibility.

Note: the sale of Aloha by non kanaka maoli shows the reckless nature of a pirating nation, continuous rape mentality of an illegal U.S. President Obama who was born in the Hawaiian Islands, which is not part of the United States.

Obama recognizes the "deep injustice, discounts the thousands of deaths from introduced disease, breaches of treaties meant to be friendly, continuous and discounting treaties with other nations, and lies about an "eventual conquest of their sovereign kingdom" when the reality is that legally, lawfully, the U.S. premeditated the move against a friendly, neutral nation recognized in the Law of Nations as part of the Empire of the Pacific, a democratic group with Aetearoa (New Zealand), the Samoan Islands, and the Hawaiian Kingdom since the early 1800's while Kamehameha was still alive.

Obama further discounts the "unjust time in our history" when the reality is that we in the Hawaiian Islands are made up of a 3,000+ year old society versus a thieves, murderers, English castouts, made up of people opposing their religions and prompted to set up houses on already owned, occupied lands belonging to aboriginal Native Americans.

Along with homeless activities setting up to assume already owned lands, mercenaries/missionaries who began plantations in our Hawaiian Islands moved over to Mexican territory and obtained assistance from the U.S. calvary and assumed large tracts of non warring Mexicans and called the lands Texas.

"Hawaii's steadfast sense of community and mutual support shows the progress that results when we are united in a spirit of limitless possibility." In actuality, the lies built with the support of the U.S. military, government progressed towards the criminal, pirate thinking that criminals united can help to create goals of more raping, theft, criminal racketeering, which can extend beyond the Hawaiian Islands………..and all nations should be aware of this.

In the decades since their persecution, Native Hawaiians have remained resilient. They are part of the diverse people of Hawaii who, as children of pioneers and immigrants from around the world, carry on the unique cultures and traditions of their forebears. As Americans, we can all admire these traits, as well as the raw natural beauty of the islands themselves. Truly, the Aloha Spirit of Hawaii echoes the American Spirit, representing the opportunities we all have to grow and learn from one another as we carry our Nation toward a brighter day.

Note: "In the decades since their persecution, Native Hawaiians have remained resilient." Obama addresses the non-bloods who have pirated the term Native Hawaiians as anyone born in the islands and have accommodated identity theft for the criminals supported by the U.S. government who has done criminal activities against our Queen Liliuokalani since 1893, her subjects (40,000 plus) versus the mere 3,000 Americans who were documented treasonous, conspirators against a neutral, non-violent nation and moved to War with the kanaka maoli land owners, resource owners, water rights, archipelago owners thru the pirating activities of bankrupt U.S., England and the Morgan bankers who were the investors for slave supporting nations.

In 1852, our Hawaiian Kingdom passed the anti-slavery laws, while the U.S. passed theirs more than 13 years or in 1865 after their President Lincoln was assassinated.

"..the Aloha Spirit of Hawaii echoes the American Spirit, representing the opportunities we all have to grow and learn from one another as we carry our Nation toward a brighter day." The criminal use of good words "Aloha Spirit" is merely another form of piracy used to assume all that belongs to our Hawaiian, kanaka maoli, good people which is in no way connected to the "American Spirit" which was created by a 200+ year old nation with a criminal, thieves, murderers, prisoners background, the throwaways/castouts of the English Society, the scum and scoundrels who have always wanted what others have.

The U.S. piracy(ies), racketeering ventures in our Hawaiian archipelago is recorded as evidence showing the pirating nature, the ruthless, criminal activities against a free, friendly, neutral nation which did no wrongs to a bankrupt nation now seeking to destroy, decimate our populations in our Hawaiian archipelago by using DU/ depleted uranium, GMO/genetic modified poisons, other toxic wastes in our environment by a claimed democratic nation moving to WAR with everything, everyone under the sun, muck up everyone's environment, in our nation/Hawaiian archipelago, and many other nations.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 11, 2010, as King Kamehameha Day. I call upon all Americans to celebrate the rich heritage of Hawaii with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Note: Kamehameha Day has been a recognized day of our kanaka maoli and recognized in the Hawaiian Kingdom for more than 150 years.

Proclamations, Executive Orders are not part of the Constitution and the laws of the United States, but a tradition and recognized as such. Traditions are not laws.

Although you call your Americans to celebrate festivities of our Hawaiian Islands, know that our ancestor Kamehameha was not an American, he is recognized as having formed our Monarchy government in 1810; rents and leases are due at the rate of $500 Trillion per year in gold coins retroactive to 1893, and Eviction Notices for the U.S. military to vacate our family properties by December 2010 is expected. Reason being that failure to pay rents, leases, and the continued use of DU/depleted uranium with the intention of exterminating our populations, including American citizens, and foreign visitors, innocent victims of WAR crimes are goals intended to affect the true land, resource, archipelago owners who remain evidence of criminal acts against neutral, non violent citizens whose government did temporarily go "under ground".

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
tenth day of June, in the year of our Lord two thousand ten, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fourth.

BARACK OBAMA
# # #

Note: "Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fourth"……look everyone, this is not the same United States of America/United States…..and the 234?

BARACK OBAMA name is all in capital's which means that he is operating as a corporation. A Corporation has CEO's/Corporation Executive Officer's and not a living human being.

Lastly, Queen Liliuokalani prophesied that if the U.S. did not make corrections, the U.S. will fall apart.

aloha.

Sincerely,

Amelia Gora, a Royal person

hi,

Kamehameha Day!…Many descendants exist today, documented too…..

A coconut man born in the Hawaiian Kingdom named Barack Obama representing the U.S./U.S.A. a Pirating nation moves to recognize yet perpetuate lies of the past…interesting.

Thank you for posting this………wanted to see the wording of his "Proclamation"…….and it's loaded with erroneous information…….or as the locals call it "full of shibai".

am going to tear it apart and post another time…………

Kamehameha began our Monarchy based government in 1810.
The U.S., a pirating, documented pirating nation premeditated the theft of monies, lands, and placed our Queen under duress through Congress, the U.S. President and former American Civil War General Benjamin Harrison, military, and treasonous Americans who operated in our government positions….

Maybe the following article will give you a clue as to where this is all going. Stephen Gowans has submitted countless articles which has been posted in the IOLANI – The Royal Hawk news on the web from Hawaii which has 293 issues out to date:

What's Left http://www3.sympatico.ca/sr.gowans/frum.html

Ex-Bush speechwriter: I was to provide a justification for war

By Stephen Gowans

In late December 2001, chief presidential speechwriter Mike Gerson "was parcelling out the components of the forthcoming State of the Union speech. His request to me," recalls David Frum in his new book The White House in The Right Time: The Surprise Presidency of George W. Bush, "could not have been simpler: I was to provide a justification for a war."

And so was born the phrase "the axis of evil."

A year later, the impending all-out assault on Iraq is spinned as "a war of liberation." And there's a certain truth to the claim.

It will be a war that could liberate up to 500,000 Iraqis of their lives, according to the British healthcare group, Medact.

It will be a war that could liberate 200,000 Iraqis of their homes, and 10 million of their security against hunger and disease, according to a new UN report.

And, above all, it will be a war that will liberate Iraq of its oil wealth and put America more wholly in charge.

It will indeed be a war of liberation.

And one long in the making.

Key Bush cabinet members had been pushing for a take-over of Iraq and its oil fields for some time.

In September, 2000, Dick Cheney, now vice-president, along with his current chief of staff Lewis Libby, and Donald Rumsfeld, now Secretary of Defense, along with his deputy Paul Wolfowitz, laid out a plan to create a new American century, in which the United States would be supreme in the world, the first truly global empire.

The plan adumbrated regime change in Iraq, that is, the installation of a US puppet regime in Baghdad.

The events of 9/11 were pressed into service to provide the trigger.

Within hours of hijacked jets careening into the World Trade Centre and Pentagon, Rumsfeld was ordering his staff to find something that could be used to pin the blame on Iraq.

National Security advisor Condoleeza Rice ordered her staff to consider the opportunities 9/11 provided, as if the grim events of that day were a sliver lining that could justify the vigorous extension of US hegemony.

In his book, Frum recounts how he spent two days dreaming up a pretext for "going after Iraq," eventually hitting on the "axis of evil" idea, which he originally conceived of as the "axis of hatred" but which Gerson changed "to use the theological language that Bush" (mirroring Osama bin Laden) "had made his own since Sept. 11."

While Frum denies the decision to launch a ground invasion had been made when he was asked to "sum up in a sentence or two our best case for going after Iraq," the events leading up to Frum's inventing a pretext for the mass murder suggest the decision had been made long before that.

But more revealing is Frum's attack on the antiwar camp, for in dismissing its arguments, Frum lets slip the real reasons for the impending slaughter: American control of the Middle East.

"I knew that opponents of action against Iraq relied on two main points," Frum writes. "First, they say there was no direct, conclusive proof that Saddam Hussein aided the Sept. 11 terrorists."

This, Frum does not deny, but says Iraq, Iran, Hezbollah and al-Qaeda are linked in "resenting the power of the West," his rationale for drawing all four into an axis. (North Korea was added at the last minute, he explains, because "it needed to feel a stronger hand.")

"Saddam Hussein was certainly a very bad man, so was Stalin," Frum acknowledges. "We had relied on deterrence, not war, to contain him; why should we not do so with Saddam, who after all controlled a much weaker state than the old Soviet Union?"

Actually, it was less Stalin, and more Washington, with its insatiable appetite for meddling in Central and South America, in Africa, in Indochina, that needed to be contained, but lay that aside. In reply, Frum says this argument is nothing more that resentment of American power.

"An American-led overthrow of Saddam Hussein…and a replacement of the radical Baathist dictatorship with a new government more closely aligned with the United States–would put America more wholly in charge of the region than any power since the Ottomans. People who resent American power…very understandably dreaded such an outcome."

In Frum's view, there's a lot of resenting going on, all having to do with Washington's throwing its weight around to "more wholly take charge," and while it's no doubt true that Washington's jackbooting around the world occasions considerable resentment (as the Nazi's did), it's clear that Frum regards the resenting as somehow illegitimate.

Certainly, in the case of countries or organizations, resenting a US take-over is sufficient to earn your way onto Washington's hit-list; resentment is the tie that binds set upon countries into an axis.

Frum's views are entirely consistent with the tacit doctrine that holds sway among his journalistic colleagues in North America and the UK (Frum now writes for Canada's viciously right-wing, Washington-aligned The National Post) that the United States is now the legitimate world ruler, whose authority must be obeyed. Under this regime, ideas of national sovereignty are illegitimate, for all countries (at least the weakest ones, unable to fight back) are to consider themselves subordinate, and are to make way for Washington to manoeuvre itself into a position where it can be "more wholly in charge."

Emblematic of this thinking is the way North Korea is presented in the Anglo-American media: as defiant, for refusing to be bound by an international agreement Washington long ago abandoned, but has commanded Pyongyang to comply with. The very act of asserting one's national sovereignty or right of self-defense in the face of American edicts is considered a defiant act, as if Washington's power to compel compliance rests on legitimate authority and not simply the threat of force or economic warfare.

On the other hand, Washington can unilaterally rip up as many international agreements as it likes, undermine some (such as the International Criminal Court), refuse to be bound by others, and brazenly thumb its nose at international conventions (such as those established at Nuremberg,) and this veridical rogue behavior is regarded as perfectly legitimate, the actions of a sovereign.

Stripped of its verbiage, Frum's account reduces to this: "I was asked to provide a justification for a war that would put Washington more wholly in charge of the region that any power since the Ottomans."

For Frum, and the velociraptors plotting mass murder in the name of strengthening American primacy, there can be no cause higher than service to Washington's imperial ambitions. Inventing justifications for mass murder, are, therefore, wholly justifiable.

Pity those who resent it.

Frum's book is being excerpted in The National Post. His recounting of his inventing a pretext for going after Iraq appears in the January 8, 2003 edition.

Mahalo Amelia for responding so quickly in setting things right. It is also interesting to note that Kanawai Mamalahoe was not for protecting people in times of war. It was protection of all people from molestation, assaullt, or harrassment in public; who had a right to sleep or rest by the roadside or anywhere within the Kingdom.

The law of occupation is very explicit whereby the United States of America has continuously violates since 1893 where U.S. citizens are in violation of immigrating and residing within the occupied territory. They don’t lose their U.S. citizens whether or not they are born within the Kingdom of Hawai’i but are considered hostile occupiers/settlers. Their presence is in violation of the law of occupation.

During the unlawful invasion of the Kingdom of Hawai’i, the U.S. Minister Stevens under the approval of the Executive Branch of the U.S.A., protected and assisted in creating the Provisional government and gave the treasonous Committee of Safety assurance that they woud be protected by the U.S. military for their existence which emboldened them to make the proclamation establishing their Provisional Government. U.S. Minister Stevens immediately recognized the said Provisional Government before they had control of any government buildings, the police station, or the barracks of the Hawaiian Kingdom.

U.S. Minister Stevens informed the Queen if she resisted; it would be an act of war against the U.S.A. The said treasonous Provisional Government officials melted down silver dollars to create a tea set and presented it to U.S. Minister Stevens in gratitude for his participation and protection of establishing the Provisional Government for them.

To discredit the Blount report commissioned by U.S. President Cleveland, Senator Morgan who was the Grand Dragon of the racist Klu Klux Klan, exonerated all U.S. participants and placed the blame solely on Queen Liliuokalani. Consequently, the Turpie Resolution of 1894 was passed for non-interference of any U.S. officials or any other foreign government under threat of an act unfriendly towards the U.S.A. after the fact. President Cleveland insisted a more democratic form in the resolution and thus, the wording included, “Resolved, That of right-it-belongs wholly to the people of the Hawaiian Islands to establish and maintain their own form of government and domestic policy;…”

In response to this, the people’s plebiescite known as the Ku’e Petitions of 1897, overwhelmingly spoke for the people of Hawai’i. Partially because of this, the second submission of the treaty of annexation by the traitorous U.S. American puppet government now known as the republic of Hawai’i was again rejected for lack of 2/3rds majority vote as demanded by the U.S. Constitution.

To circumvent that outcome, Congress conducted a joint resolution called the Newlands Resolution which U.S. Rep. Ball pronounced as what couldn’t be done lawfully was done unlawfully. Many Congressmen agreed but were over-ridden by such a violation of domestic and international law. All U.S. domestic laws are null and void in Hawai’i; including annexation, statehood, and including the manifest destiny tool called the Akaka Bill to create a portion of the Hawaiian subjects/nationals as an indigenous American tribe.

This brings us to the conclusion that the Kingdom of Hawai’i still exists albeit under U.S. belligerent occupation with continuous violations of the law of occupation and the law of neutrality.

An existing Hawaiian subject of the Kingdom of Hawai’i,

Hawaiian Kingdom Records No. 2010-01050: Kamehameha – My/Our Ancestor from Amelia Gora, a Royal person, and Acting Liaison of Foreign Affair

Greetings President Obama,

The following article is a response to your claimed Proclamation on my/our ancestor Kamehameha of the Hawaiian Kingdom:

REVIEWING U.S. PRESIDENT OBAMA’S RECENT PROCLAMATION ON OUR ANCESTOR: KAMEHAMEHA

Review by Amelia Gora, a Royal person, One of
Kamehameha’s descendants (2010)

The following is a Proclamation issued by an illegal U.S. President Obama who was born in the Hawaiian Kingdom. Notes are added for many to follow:

THE WHITE HOUSE
Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release June 10, 2010
KING KAMEHAMEHA DAY, 2010

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION

Two hundred years ago, King Kamehameha the Great brought the Hawaiian Islands together under a unified government. His courage and leadership earned him a legacy as the “Napoleon of the Pacific,” and today his humanity is preserved in Ke Kanawai Mamalahoe, or “the Law of the Splintered Paddle.” This law protects civilians in times of war and remains enshrined in Hawaii’s constitution as “a unique and living symbol of the State’s concern for public safety.”

Note: This law was created during the Hawaiian Kingdom period, and the entity State of Hawaii, an illegal entity supported by the United States has criminally assumed our peaceful, neutral, non-violent nation claiming concern for public safety when they have played a part in terrorizing Hawaiian Kingdom subjects, their descendants over time.

On this bicentennial King Kamehameha Day, we celebrate the history and heritage of the Aloha State, which has immeasurably enriched our national life and culture. The Hawaiian narrative is one of both profound triumph and, sadly, deep injustice. It is the story of Native Hawaiians oppressed by crippling disease, aborted treaties, and the eventual conquest of their sovereign kingdom. These grim milestones remind us of an unjust time in our history, as well as the many pitfalls in our Nation’s long and difficult journey to perfect itself. Yet, through the peaks and valleys of our American story, Hawaii’s steadfast sense of community and mutual support shows the progress that results when we are united in a spirit of limitless possibility.

Note: the sale of Aloha by non kanaka maoli shows the reckless nature of a pirating nation, continuous rape mentality of an illegal U.S. President Obama who was born in the Hawaiian Islands, which is not part of the United States.

Obama recognizes the “deep injustice, discounts the thousands of deaths from introduced disease, breaches of treaties meant to be friendly, continuous and discounting treaties with other nations, and lies about an “eventual conquest of their sovereign kingdom” when the reality is that legally, lawfully, the U.S. premeditated the move against a friendly, neutral nation recognized in the Law of Nations as part of the Empire of the Pacific, a democratic group with Aetearoa (New Zealand), the Samoan Islands, and the Hawaiian Kingdom since the early 1800’s while Kamehameha was still alive.

Obama further discounts the “unjust time in our history” when the reality is that we in the Hawaiian Islands are made up of a 3,000+ year old society versus a thieves, murderers, English castouts, made up of people opposing their religions and prompted to set up houses on already owned, occupied lands belonging to aboriginal Native Americans.

Along with homeless activities setting up to assume already owned lands, mercenaries/missionaries who began plantations in our Hawaiian Islands moved over to Mexican territory and obtained assistance from the U.S. calvary and assumed large tracts of non warring Mexicans and called the lands Texas.

“Hawaii’s steadfast sense of community and mutual support shows the progress that results when we are united in a spirit of limitless possibility.” In actuality, the lies built with the support of the U.S. military, government progressed towards the criminal, pirate thinking that criminals united can help to create goals of more raping, theft, criminal racketeering, which can extend beyond the Hawaiian Islands………..and all nations should be aware of this.

In the decades since their persecution, Native Hawaiians have remained resilient. They are part of the diverse people of Hawaii who, as children of pioneers and immigrants from around the world, carry on the unique cultures and traditions of their forebears. As Americans, we can all admire these traits, as well as the raw natural beauty of the islands themselves. Truly, the Aloha Spirit of Hawaii echoes the American Spirit, representing the opportunities we all have to grow and learn from one another as we carry our Nation toward a brighter day.

Note: “In the decades since their persecution, Native Hawaiians have remained resilient.” Obama addresses the non-bloods who have pirated the term Native Hawaiians as anyone born in the islands and have accommodated identity theft for the criminals supported by the U.S. government who has done criminal activities against our Queen Liliuokalani since 1893, her subjects (40,000 plus) versus the mere 3,000 Americans who were documented treasonous, conspirators against a neutral, non-violent nation and moved to War with the kanaka maoli land owners, resource owners, water rights, archipelago owners thru the pirating activities of bankrupt U.S., England and the Morgan bankers who were the investors for slave supporting nations.

In 1852, our Hawaiian Kingdom passed the anti-slavery laws, while the U.S. passed theirs more than 13 years or in 1865 after their President Lincoln was assassinated.

“..the Aloha Spirit of Hawaii echoes the American Spirit, representing the opportunities we all have to grow and learn from one another as we carry our Nation toward a brighter day.” The criminal use of good words “Aloha Spirit” is merely another form of piracy used to assume all that belongs to our Hawaiian, kanaka maoli, good people which is in no way connected to the “American Spirit” which was created by a 200+ year old nation with a criminal, thieves, murderers, prisoners background, the throwaways/castouts of the English Society, the scum and scoundrels who have always wanted what others have.

The U.S. piracy(ies), racketeering ventures in our Hawaiian archipelago is recorded as evidence showing the pirating nature, the ruthless, criminal activities against a free, friendly, neutral nation which did no wrongs to a bankrupt nation now seeking to destroy, decimate our populations in our Hawaiian archipelago by using DU/ depleted uranium, GMO/genetic modified poisons, other toxic wastes in our environment by a claimed democratic nation moving to WAR with everything, everyone under the sun, muck up everyone’s environment, in our nation/Hawaiian archipelago, and many other nations.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 11, 2010, as King Kamehameha Day. I call upon all Americans to celebrate the rich heritage of Hawaii with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Note: Kamehameha Day has been a recognized day of our kanaka maoli and recognized in the Hawaiian Kingdom for more than 150 years.

Proclamations, Executive Orders are not part of the Constitution and the laws of the United States, but a tradition and recognized as such. Traditions are not laws.

Although you call your Americans to celebrate festivities of our Hawaiian Islands, know that our ancestor Kamehameha was not an American, he is recognized as having formed our Monarchy government in 1810; rents and leases are due at the rate of $500 Trillion per year in gold coins retroactive to 1893, and Eviction Notices for the U.S. military to vacate our family properties by December 2010 is expected. Reason being that failure to pay rents, leases, and the continued use of DU/depleted uranium with the intention of exterminating our populations, including American citizens, and foreign visitors, innocent victims of WAR crimes are goals intended to affect the true land, resource, archipelago owners who remain evidence of criminal acts against neutral, non violent citizens whose government did temporarily go “under ground”.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
tenth day of June, in the year of our Lord two thousand ten, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fourth.

BARACK OBAMA
# # #

Note: “Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fourth”……look everyone, this is not the same United States of America/United States…..and the 234?

BARACK OBAMA name is all in capital’s which means that he is operating as a corporation. A Corporation has CEO’s/Corporation Executive Officer’s and not a living human being.

Lastly, Queen Liliuokalani prophesied that if the U.S. did not make corrections, the U.S. will fall apart.

aloha.

Sincerely,

Amelia Gora, a Royal person

hi,

Kamehameha Day!…Many descendants exist today, documented too…..

A coconut man born in the Hawaiian Kingdom named Barack Obama representing the U.S./U.S.A. a Pirating nation moves to recognize yet perpetuate lies of the past…interesting.

Thank you for posting this………wanted to see the wording of his “Proclamation”…….and it’s loaded with erroneous information…….or as the locals call it “full of shibai”.

am going to tear it apart and post another time…………

Kamehameha began our Monarchy based government in 1810.
The U.S., a pirating, documented pirating nation premeditated the theft of monies, lands, and placed our Queen under duress through Congress, the U.S. President and former American Civil War General Benjamin Harrison, military, and treasonous Americans who operated in our government positions….

Maybe the following article will give you a clue as to where this is all going. Stephen Gowans has submitted countless articles which has been posted in the IOLANI – The Royal Hawk news on the web from Hawaii which has 293 issues out to date:

Ex-Bush speechwriter: I was to provide a justification for war

By Stephen Gowans

In late December 2001, chief presidential speechwriter Mike Gerson “was parcelling out the components of the forthcoming State of the Union speech. His request to me,” recalls David Frum in his new book The White House in The Right Time: The Surprise Presidency of George W. Bush, “could not have been simpler: I was to provide a justification for a war.”

And so was born the phrase “the axis of evil.”

A year later, the impending all-out assault on Iraq is spinned as “a war of liberation.” And there’s a certain truth to the claim.

It will be a war that could liberate up to 500,000 Iraqis of their lives, according to the British healthcare group, Medact.

It will be a war that could liberate 200,000 Iraqis of their homes, and 10 million of their security against hunger and disease, according to a new UN report.

And, above all, it will be a war that will liberate Iraq of its oil wealth and put America more wholly in charge.

It will indeed be a war of liberation.

And one long in the making.

Key Bush cabinet members had been pushing for a take-over of Iraq and its oil fields for some time.

In September, 2000, Dick Cheney, now vice-president, along with his current chief of staff Lewis Libby, and Donald Rumsfeld, now Secretary of Defense, along with his deputy Paul Wolfowitz, laid out a plan to create a new American century, in which the United States would be supreme in the world, the first truly global empire.

The plan adumbrated regime change in Iraq, that is, the installation of a US puppet regime in Baghdad.

The events of 9/11 were pressed into service to provide the trigger.

Within hours of hijacked jets careening into the World Trade Centre and Pentagon, Rumsfeld was ordering his staff to find something that could be used to pin the blame on Iraq.

National Security advisor Condoleeza Rice ordered her staff to consider the opportunities 9/11 provided, as if the grim events of that day were a sliver lining that could justify the vigorous extension of US hegemony.

In his book, Frum recounts how he spent two days dreaming up a pretext for “going after Iraq,” eventually hitting on the “axis of evil” idea, which he originally conceived of as the “axis of hatred” but which Gerson changed “to use the theological language that Bush” (mirroring Osama bin Laden) “had made his own since Sept. 11.”

While Frum denies the decision to launch a ground invasion had been made when he was asked to “sum up in a sentence or two our best case for going after Iraq,” the events leading up to Frum’s inventing a pretext for the mass murder suggest the decision had been made long before that.

But more revealing is Frum’s attack on the antiwar camp, for in dismissing its arguments, Frum lets slip the real reasons for the impending slaughter: American control of the Middle East.

“I knew that opponents of action against Iraq relied on two main points,” Frum writes. “First, they say there was no direct, conclusive proof that Saddam Hussein aided the Sept. 11 terrorists.”

This, Frum does not deny, but says Iraq, Iran, Hezbollah and al-Qaeda are linked in “resenting the power of the West,” his rationale for drawing all four into an axis. (North Korea was added at the last minute, he explains, because “it needed to feel a stronger hand.”)

“Saddam Hussein was certainly a very bad man, so was Stalin,” Frum acknowledges. “We had relied on deterrence, not war, to contain him; why should we not do so with Saddam, who after all controlled a much weaker state than the old Soviet Union?”

Actually, it was less Stalin, and more Washington, with its insatiable appetite for meddling in Central and South America, in Africa, in Indochina, that needed to be contained, but lay that aside. In reply, Frum says this argument is nothing more that resentment of American power.

“An American-led overthrow of Saddam Hussein…and a replacement of the radical Baathist dictatorship with a new government more closely aligned with the United States–would put America more wholly in charge of the region than any power since the Ottomans. People who resent American power…very understandably dreaded such an outcome.”

In Frum’s view, there’s a lot of resenting going on, all having to do with Washington’s throwing its weight around to “more wholly take charge,” and while it’s no doubt true that Washington’s jackbooting around the world occasions considerable resentment (as the Nazi’s did), it’s clear that Frum regards the resenting as somehow illegitimate.

Certainly, in the case of countries or organizations, resenting a US take-over is sufficient to earn your way onto Washington’s hit-list; resentment is the tie that binds set upon countries into an axis.

Frum’s views are entirely consistent with the tacit doctrine that holds sway among his journalistic colleagues in North America and the UK (Frum now writes for Canada’s viciously right-wing, Washington-aligned The National Post) that the United States is now the legitimate world ruler, whose authority must be obeyed. Under this regime, ideas of national sovereignty are illegitimate, for all countries (at least the weakest ones, unable to fight back) are to consider themselves subordinate, and are to make way for Washington to manoeuvre itself into a position where it can be “more wholly in charge.”

Emblematic of this thinking is the way North Korea is presented in the Anglo-American media: as defiant, for refusing to be bound by an international agreement Washington long ago abandoned, but has commanded Pyongyang to comply with. The very act of asserting one’s national sovereignty or right of self-defense in the face of American edicts is considered a defiant act, as if Washington’s power to compel compliance rests on legitimate authority and not simply the threat of force or economic warfare.

On the other hand, Washington can unilaterally rip up as many international agreements as it likes, undermine some (such as the International Criminal Court), refuse to be bound by others, and brazenly thumb its nose at international conventions (such as those established at Nuremberg,) and this veridical rogue behavior is regarded as perfectly legitimate, the actions of a sovereign.

Stripped of its verbiage, Frum’s account reduces to this: “I was asked to provide a justification for a war that would put Washington more wholly in charge of the region that any power since the Ottomans.”

For Frum, and the velociraptors plotting mass murder in the name of strengthening American primacy, there can be no cause higher than service to Washington’s imperial ambitions. Inventing justifications for mass murder, are, therefore, wholly justifiable.

Pity those who resent it.

Frum’s book is being excerpted in The National Post. His recounting of his inventing a pretext for going after Iraq appears in the January 8, 2003 edition.

Mahalo Amelia for responding so quickly in setting things right. It is also interesting to note that Kanawai Mamalahoe was not for protecting people in times of war. It was protection of all people from molestation, assaullt, or harrassment in public; who had a right to sleep or rest by the roadside or anywhere within the Kingdom.

The law of occupation is very explicit whereby the United States of America has continuously violates since 1893 where U.S. citizens are in violation of immigrating and residing within the occupied territory. They don’t lose their U.S. citizens whether or not they are born within the Kingdom of Hawai’i but are considered hostile occupiers/settlers. Their presence is in violation of the law of occupation.

During the unlawful invasion of the Kingdom of Hawai’i, the U.S. Minister Stevens under the approval of the Executive Branch of the U.S.A., protected and assisted in creating the Provisional government and gave the treasonous Committee of Safety assurance that they woud be protected by the U.S. military for their existence which emboldened them to make the proclamation establishing their Provisional Government. U.S. Minister Stevens immediately recognized the said Provisional Government before they had control of any government buildings, the police station, or the barracks of the Hawaiian Kingdom.

U.S. Minister Stevens informed the Queen if she resisted; it would be an act of war against the U.S.A. The said treasonous Provisional Government officials melted down silver dollars to create a tea set and presented it to U.S. Minister Stevens in gratitude for his participation and protection of establishing the Provisional Government for them.

To discredit the Blount report commissioned by U.S. President Cleveland, Senator Morgan who was the Grand Dragon of the racist Klu Klux Klan, exonerated all U.S. participants and placed the blame solely on Queen Liliuokalani. Consequently, the Turpie Resolution of 1894 was passed for non-interference of any U.S. officials or any other foreign government under threat of an act unfriendly towards the U.S.A. after the fact. President Cleveland insisted a more democratic form in the resolution and thus, the wording included, “Resolved, That of right-it-belongs wholly to the people of the Hawaiian Islands to establish and maintain their own form of government and domestic policy;…”

In response to this, the people’s plebiescite known as the Ku’e Petitions of 1897, overwhelmingly spoke for the people of Hawai’i. Partially because of this, the second submission of the treaty of annexation by the traitorous U.S. American puppet government now known as the republic of Hawai’i was again rejected for lack of 2/3rds majority vote as demanded by the U.S. Constitution.

To circumvent that outcome, Congress conducted a joint resolution called the Newlands Resolution which U.S. Rep. Ball pronounced as what couldn’t be done lawfully was done unlawfully. Many Congressmen agreed but were over-ridden by such a violation of domestic and international law. All U.S. domestic laws are null and void in Hawai’i; including annexation, statehood, and including the manifest destiny tool called the Akaka Bill to create a portion of the Hawaiian subjects/nationals as an indigenous American tribe.

This brings us to the conclusion that the Kingdom of Hawai’i still exists albeit under U.S. belligerent occupation with continuous violations of the law of occupation and the law of neutrality.

An existing Hawaiian subject of the Kingdom of Hawai’i,

Tane

petitions in 1897, ending up with about 1100 signs at the end of the
afternoon. Mahalo to those who came out to kokua (and there were
many!) and to the kupuna who took a stand in 1897 against the
annexation of Hawaii to the U.S. Ours was a celebration of the

1893, recognizing our kupunas’ loyalty to Queen Liliuokalani and
country, and the Queen’s legacy of resistance to American imperialism

News flash. The United States engages in secret war.

To millions of Americans, and hundreds of millions around the world, this is not news. It’s part of an ongoing part of U.S. foreign policy.

Last century is littered with examples. Chile, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Korea, Congo, Somalia, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Indonesia, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Cuba, Panama, Grenada, Haiti, Colombia, Poland, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Soviet Union … shall I go on?

All these countries — and more — have had U.S. special forces deployed in them. Many of them under the auspices of the CIA or the Pentagon or some other U.S. military/intelligence group, including private corporations.

Some of these operations have been run out of the basement of the White House. (Last century’s Reagan and Iran-gate) Some have been run out of the vice president and president’s offices. (This century’s Bush/Cheney and Iraq, Afghanistan … )

All of these operations have had the goal of crushing democracy and any budding socialist-oriented or worker-friendly movements or nations, controlling resources, including labor, for U.S. corporations, and, especially during the Cold War, blunting the Soviet Union. Some of these operations have assassinated people, including elected leaders.

(It’s also important to point out these “special ops” also happen on U.S. soil: re: COINTELPRO ,etc. That is one reason in the1970s Sen. Frank Church and a Senate committee investigated the CIA and FBI and found the CIA conducts “covert media operations” in the U.S. to “manipulate” public opinion. Hmmm. Sounds eerily familiar to 2002-2003 Iraq war build up.)

But recently, The Washington Post reports President Obama has “significantly expanded a largely secret U.S. war against al-Qaeda and other radical groups.” A reality, they say, in a post-Sept. 11 world.
The article continues, “Special Operations forces have grown both in number and budget, and are deployed in 75 countries, compared with about 60 at the beginning of last year. In addition to units that have spent years in the Philippines and Colombia, teams are operating in Yemen and elsewhere in the Middle East, Africa and Central Asia.”

There are 13,000 such special operatives, according to the report, with 9,000 of them mainly in Iraq and Afghanistan. Eighty percent of them, one official said, are to resolve “current conflicts.”

Assassinations and drone attacks are part of the operations, yet, WaPo reports, they “go beyond unilateral strikes and include the training of local counter-terrorism forces and joint operations with them.”

The Atlantic Monthly, in a recent blog post called “The end of Dick Cheney’s kill squads,” says there is considerable difference in Obama secret warfare policy and the Bush/Cheney years.

Comparing it to Seymour Hersh’s expose of the Bush/Cheney “executive assassination ring” AM says, “While reports for some time have indicated that the Obama administration has continued and even expanded military special operations throughout the world, it is now clear that he has increased oversight and ended the Bush-era practice running secret military operations directly from the presidential and vice president offices.”

AM calls it “an important change to the Bush-era use of military special operations,” which now is overseen by “regional military commanders as well as the State Department.”

But, AM, questions, like many, the expansion of secret warfare, without any judicial oversight, legal (or moral) authority, including assassination orders, which only continues the “judge, jury and executioner”-type of foreign policy of old.

The secret war report somewhat eclipsed the release of the Obama administration’s new National Security Strategy, which, by all reports, looks “beyond” military might to “maintain” U.S. influence and interests around the world; emphasizes diplomacy and development; does away with unilateralism of the Bush/Cheney era and emphasizes building “global institutions,” expanding partnerships and multilateralism beyond “traditional allies.”

Many have said it’s a departure from the saber-rattling of the Bush administration, but does not go far enough in a break with past, destructive foreign policies, and is a long way from a more “good neighbor”-type of policy.

At a recent progressive conference, America’s Future NOW!, speakers on foreign policy emphasized the shift , but also said there has to be a larger and more influential movement on the ground to win a significant change in U.S. foreign policy.

Call the Politburo, We’re in Trouble
Entering the Soviet Era in America
By Tom Engelhardt

Mark it on your calendar. It seems we’ve finally entered the Soviet era in America.

You remember the Soviet Union, now almost 20 years in its grave. But who gives it a second thought today? Even in its glory years that “evil empire” was sometimes referred to as “the second superpower.” In 1991, after seven decades, it suddenly disintegrated and disappeared, leaving the United States — the “sole superpower,” even the “hyperpower,” on planet Earth — surprised but triumphant.

The USSR had been heading for the exits for quite a while, not that official Washington had a clue. At the moment it happened, Soviet “experts” like Secretary of Defense Robert Gates

(then director of the CIA) still expected the Cold War to go on and on

. In Washington, eyes were trained on the might of the Soviet military, which the Soviet leadership had never stopped feeding, even as its sclerotic bureaucracy was rotting, its economy (which had ceased to grow in the late 1970s) was tanking, budget deficits were soaring, indebtedness to other countries was growing, and social welfare payments were eating into what funds remained. Not even a vigorous, reformist leader like Mikhail Gorbachev could staunch the rot, especially when, in the late 1980s, the price of Russian oil fell drastically.

Looking back, the most distinctive feature of the last years of the Soviet Union may have been the way it continued to pour money into its military — and its military adventure in Afghanistan — when it was already going bankrupt and the society it had built was beginning to collapse around it. In the end, its aging leaders made a devastating miscalculation. They mistook military power for power on this planet. Armed to the teeth and possessing a nuclear force capable of destroying the Earth many times over, the Soviets nonetheless remained the vastly poorer, weaker, and (except when it came to the arms race) far less technologically innovative of the two superpowers.

In December 1979, perhaps taking the bait of the Carter administration

whose national security advisor was eager to see the Soviets bloodied by a “Vietnam” of their own, the Red Army invaded Afghanistan to support a weak communist government in Kabul. When resistance in the countryside, led by Islamic fundamentalist guerrillas and backed by the other superpower, only grew, the Soviets sent in more troops, launched major offensives, called in air power, and fought on brutally and futilely for a decade until, in 1989, long after they had been whipped, they withdrew in defeat.

Gorbachev had dubbed Afghanistan “the bleeding wound,”

and when the wounded Red Army finally limped home, it was to a country that would soon cease to exist. For the Soviet Union, Afghanistan had literally proven “the graveyard of empires.” If, at the end, its military remained standing, the empire didn’t. (And if you don’t already find this description just a tad eerie, given the present moment in the U.S., you should.)

Value of Afghanistans mineral discovery needs to be dealt with cautiously
By David Robertson, Business Correspondent

The good news from the men at the Pentagon is that beneath the landmines Afghanistan is sitting on a goldmine.

Exactly when they took their degrees in geology is unclear but officials have estimated that Afghanistans mineral resources could be worth $1 trillion.

This suspiciously round number appears to be based on geological surveys made decades ago as well as recent on-the-ground research.

How thorough that could have been is open to debate, given that it takes the worlds best miners about a decade to explore a new area.

Factor in Afghanistans size, and the Pentagon must have had an army of geologists working in the country since immediately after 9/11 to have accurately studied its terrain.

The $1 trillion figure is, therefore, highly misleading. It is a theoretical number and may have little relation to the value of resources that could actually be exploited.

After all, you can dig up any garden in the UK and find copper, iron and all manner of other metals and minerals. The North Sea alone contains an estimated $207 billion of gold.

The difference between a British garden and the vast mines of Australia and South Africa is that minerals and metals are found there in quantities and concentrations that make it economical to extract.

It will be of little benefit to Afghanistan if its $1 trillion of mineral resources would cost $2 trillion to dig up.

The Americans have also made an error in publicising this guesstimate of Afghanistans mineral wealth because it will raise expectations and thereby inflate future facilitation payments.

It is an unwritten rule among mining companies that you never get too specific about the potential value of deposits in developing countries as it only serves to inflate the bribes that are requested.

Afghanistans former Minister of Mines has already been accused by the Americans of receiving a $30 million bribe to allocate mining licences.

Even if there were $1 trillion of mineral resources in Afghanistan, and even if those resources were economically viable, it would be years before a large Western miner considered going anywhere near the country.

BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto, Xstrata and Anglo American the worlds largest miners have no intention of moving into Afghanistan because the risk is far greater than the reward.

It would cost $5 billion or more to develop a large copper, iron ore or gold mine in Afghanistan and potentially a further $5 billion to build the necessary infrastructure (roads, railways, etc).

No company will risk that sort of money in a country where the Government does not control all the territory and contract law is far from solid.

The only people to have shown an interest in Afghanistans mines so far are the Chinese because, unlike a private company, they can tie agreements to foreign aid, loans and arms deals things that Kabul will not want to renege on.

It is possible that Chinas grab for Afghan resources has prompted the Pentagons attempt to generate some interest from the rest of the world in the countrys resources.

The Americans might not like the idea of someone else benefiting from its military commitment to Afghanistan but Chinese mines might still be preferable to poppy fields.

Pentagon strikes it rich
Jim Lobe

The timing of the publication of a major New York Times story on the vast untapped mineral wealth that lies beneath Afghanistan’s soil is raising major questions about the intent of the Pentagon, . . . some analysts believe the front-page article is designed to reverse growing public sentiment that the war is not worth the cost. . . .

As noted by Blake Hounshell, managing editor at Foreign Policy magazine, the U.S. Geological Service (USGS) already published a comprehensive inventory of Afghanistan’s non-oil mineral resources on the Internet in 2007, as did the British Geological Survey. Much of their work was based on explorations and surveys undertaken by the Soviet Union during its occupation of Afghanistan during the 1980s. . . .

The FBI Knocked on My Door!

The Joint Terrorism Task Force Division of the FBI Visits an Austin Peace Activist to Question About Pre-Crimes! On April 21, 2010, two agents of the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) came to my house to talk to me, a part time peace volunteer for Palestine. After verifying that they really were with the FBI, I asked them to wait. I shut my door, took a deep breath, and grabbed my video camera.

In an ideal world what prevails is “the truth.” Therefore, if you are innocent, you have nothing to fear since ultimately you will be found innocent. But the real world is not ideal; and what really counts in this world of ours is the “perception of truth.” Powerful governmental institutions with insurmountable resources at their disposal in terms of skills, money, manpower, organization, computer systems, etc. can create a perception of truth that ends you up in prison—even though you are innocent. This is why there are innocent people on Death Row. C… more

What does the BP “escrow”
deal really mean?

Tell a friend / Forward email

Share on Facebook

Share on Twitter

People all around the country have put so much pressure on the Obama administration that it had to “do something” to look like it was standing up to BP. The announcement today of a so-called $20 billion escrow fund from BP would never have happened without mass pressure. But does this fund truly respond to the needs of the people in the Gulf Coast states?

Too much is at stake for people to let down their guard and accept the “feel good” sound-bite version of what took place today in the meeting between President Obama and BP’s executives.

The White House and BP are creating a mythology, or “spin,” on what the tentative agreement signifies.

It is noteworthy that BP’s executives are very happy with the new agreement. Their necessary goal as a corporation is to maximize profits, and not to pay damages to all of those who have been harmed. As the Washington Post reported after the meetings, “Behind the scenes, the company had signaled what it expected from Wednesday’s meeting—and the company appears to have gotten exactly what it wanted.”

It is quite clear to us, even though much more will be revealed in the coming days and weeks, that we have to accelerate the movement for justice. This agreement is not only inadequate but attempts to shield BP from paying all the damages and compensation for lost work, ruined small businesses, and a devastated ecosystem.

At first glance, one would believe, based on the headlines that the Obama Administration compelled BP to set aside $20 billion dollars in an escrow account to meet the needs of people and communities harmed by BP’s criminal negligence.

But this is actually a great deal for BP.

The facts on the “escrow” account

The “escrow account” in 2010 is not $20 billion dollars. BP will put in $3 billion dollars in the third quarter of 2010 (ending September 30) and another $2 billion in the fourth quarter (ending December 31). Thereafter, it will have to make installments of $1.25 billion each quarter for the next three years.

This means that the necessary money will not be available to pay the tens of billions in losses that are real and immediate. It also means that people and businesses will have to get in line.

The real number for the escrow account in 2010 is $5 billion—six months from now at the earliest. To put this in perspective, BP has been bringing in between $26 billion and $36 billion annually in profits on revenue of $250 billion, and pays out more than $10 billion in dividends yearly.

According to a report in Forbes, BP could absorb $35 billion in spill costs before it would have a “material impact” on its operations. But instead, it will be allowed a paltry $5 billion a year, in an installment plan over four years.

Another measure of perspective can be had by comparison of this $5 billion per year voluntary set-aside to the accumulated potential fines and penalties under the Clean Water Act. BP can be fined $4,300 per barrel of oil spilled as a consequence of gross negligence. With the recent acknowledgment that the spill volume is 60,000 barrels per day, that is a potential penalty of over $250 million per day. Put another way, every 60 days accumulates a potential $15 billion fine under the Act. The voluntary arrangement to set aside $5 billion per year is meager in comparison.

This, of course, reflects Obama’s unwillingness to exercise legal authority against BP. Department of Justice lawyers could be initiating prosecutions for the accumulated fines, but aside from the announcement of potential investigations, this has not occurred.

Obama denies that his deal with BP will function as a cap on its liability, but this remains to be determined. The deal appears to functionally provide a shield for BP. As one investment advisor told the Wall Street Journal, the agreement puts “an end to the financial bleeding,” and allows investors to assess what BP’s total liabilities might be. So while President Obama stresses that the plan is not a cap on liability, it certainly appears as one. The installment terms of the payments themselves limit the amounts that will be made available while people are seeking claims.

Mr. Feinberg to the rescue—again

President Obama announced that the fund will be administered by Kenneth Feinberg, a Washington lawyer who made $5.7 million in his law practice in 2008. Mr. Feinberg has played a particular role in Washington at the time of virtual uprising against the banks and bankers’ bonuses. He was appointed to be the “pay czar” by Obama reviewing and approving many of the obscene bonuses doled out to AIG and other executives after they were bailed out with hundreds of billions of dollars of taxpayers’ money. As Reuters wrote today, “He has been hailed for soothing the egos of Wall Street executives clutching on to big paychecks, while still looking tough to a general public shocked by massive payouts to firms on a government lifeline.”

There is very little other information about how claims will be processed. There will have to be determinations made as to what, in the parlance of both BP and President Obama, is a “legitimate” claim. While Obama stated that anyone can file a claim, that doesn’t mean that the claim will be accepted or paid. Nor does it appear that the decision-making process will include any of the affected Gulf coast residents or their representatives from the fishers, shrimpers, crabbers, unions, small business people and workers in the tourism and recreation industry, local elected officials, clergy, and independent scientists and environmentalists.

Details must be forthcoming about claims payments and standards. Can we expect tens of thousands of people to receive checks by the end of the month? One thing is clear: The limited level of the fund necessarily means that claims cannot be paid equivalent to the damages incurred right now.

The creation of the so-called escrow fund was the result of a nationwide mass movement. Now is the time to step up our organizing to make sure that we have the kind of escrow fund that can really meet the needs of the people and repair the vast environmental damage caused by BP.

My Thom Hartmann show interview. It was short, but the feedback so far has been very good. I have to thank my source at BP for helping A LOT, and also Chris Landau, who is becoming OEN’s petroleum geology and drilling expert. Do YOU know about oil, drilling, etc.? So what are you waiting for? Post something.

I top headlined David Swanson’s revisiting of the failure to impeach Bush. It’s still not too late to pursue justice.

My top headline articleWhat We’ve Learned from American Disasters– The Gulf, Health Reform, Finance Reform

is not what I’d call real hopeful. But it is realistic.

BTW today, General Ray Odierno, who helped lead the recovery of New Orleans called for what I did a month ago– bringing the troops home from Iraq to help in the gulf. And yesterday Obama finally did what I called for almost six weeks ago– he’s bringing 17,000 National guard troops to the states afflicted by the gulf spill. How much longer before he fires Ken Salazar and those worthless advisors of his— Emanuel, Geithner, Summers, Orszag and Axelrod.

I don’t like bashing Obama.There is still a barely lit ember of hope in my heart that Obama will find his better self and do the right thing and become a strong leader. But first he has to climb out of the latrine he’s created with the advisors he currently has.

I’m going to say it again, because this is really serious.

David Corn: Obama and the BP Spill: A Command Gap?

During the eight weeks since BP’s Deepwater Horizon rig exploded and an oil gusher was created on the ocean floor, there’s been a rush of commentary questioning President Barack Obama’s leadership. Much of it has been off the mark, but it was filling a commander-in-chief vacuum created by Obama himself.

AP-GfK Poll bolsters congressional Democrats

“When Clinton was in office, we were doing exceptionally well. Then Republicans got in office and we are where we are,” said Daniel Lowery, 23, a warehouse worker from Fostoria, Ohio, who wants Democrats to continue leading the House and Senate.

No Israeli decision on easing Gaza blockade

Israel’s Security Cabinet has ended its session without a decision on easing the blockade of Gaza. Officials said earlier Wednesday the Cabinet would likely ease the land blockade of the Palestinian territory to try to blunt international condemnation over Israel’s deadly raid on a blockade-busting flotilla.

Palestinian Political Prisoners and looking back to where I have been

Since the beginning of the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories in 1967, over 650,000 Palestinians have been detained by Israel. This forms approximately 20% of the total Palestinian population in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. On January 5, 2006, I traveled to Ramallah to the Headquarters of ADAMEER [Arabic for conscience] and met with spokesmen, Ala Jaradat…

Democratic Party Defends Israeli Attack by Stephen Zunes

Looks like it is going to be up to Turkey and the rest of the world to investigate Israel’s attack on the Gaza flotilla and prosecute the war criminals. Another really excellent reason to not vote for incumbents.

Dan Froomkin: Gulf Oil Spill: What Obama Is Overlooking

Partly because of the extraordinary sluggishness of the government’s response to the sub-surface oil hazard — a vigorous research initiative only really kicked off last week, some seven weeks into the ongoing disaster — scientists are a very long way from being able to quantify the damage in the deep ocean.

The Retiree Advocate: On guard for Social Security!

Contrary to the assumptions behind Obama’s deficit reduction commission, the Congressional Budget Office says Social Security can make its scheduled payments in full through 2043….Any long-range shortfall in Social Security funding could be addressed by simply abolishing the arbitrary $106,800 cap above which income is not subject to the 8.2% payroll tax. The cap enables the wealthy to amass billions…

Stéphane Hessel on the Gaza Flotilla: Global Citizens Must Respond Where Governments Have Failed

To put it bluntly, we, the citizens of the world, have to bring change to the Middle East, because our governments have abdicated responsibility, to paraphrase Stéphane Frédéric Hessel, a diplomat, former ambassador, French resistance fighter and BCRA agent. Born German, he obtained French nationality in 1937. He participated in the drafting of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948.

Newest oil spill flow rate: 35,000 to 60,000 barrels daily

The runaway Deepwater Horizon well is probably leaking 35,000 to 60,000 barrels a day of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico, the Obama administration announced Tuesday. The new measurements were announced three hours before President Barack Obama was scheduled to address the nation on the oil spill.

Reagan Revolution Home To Roost — In Charts

Jeremy Scahill: Is Blackwater’s Erik Prince Moving to the United Arab Emirates? | The Nation

Sources close to Blackwater and its secretive owner Erik Prince claim that the embattled head of the world’s most infamous mercenary firm is planning to move to the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The Middle Eastern nation, a major hub for the US war industry, has no extradition treaty with the United States.

David Corn: Carly Fiorina and Sean Hannity: A Silly Episode

This Hannity-Fiorina lovefest was hardly a consequential event in the annals of political media. I’m not sure it even merits this commentary. But the exchange did pointedly illustrate routine Fox fatuousness. More important, if Fiorina really thinks Hannity is a challenging interviewer of GOP politicians, her basic powers of observation and judgment are open to question.

Michael Bromwich, a former Justice official, is tapped to head Minerals Management Service

BREAKING: BP: Ship fire halts oil capture in Gulf

A bolt of lightning struck the ship capturing oil from a blown-out BP well in the Gulf of Mexico on Tuesday, igniting a fire that halted containment efforts in another setback for the embattled company in its nearly two-month struggle to stop the spill.

Bob Herbert: Unfazed by Reality

Congress had already been considering legislation that would provide something approaching $50 billion in aid to states: $24 billion to offset increased costs in the states’ share of Medicaid payments and $23 billion for teachers’ salaries. But the constant chatter from Republicans and increasing numbers of Democrats about rising federal budget deficits has stymied those efforts.

Israel to allow aid into Gaza

Israel says an agreement has been reached with the UN to deliver thousands of tonnes of aid from a Gaza-bound aid flotilla that was attacked by Israeli naval commandos, to the blockaded Strip. The country’s military said on Tuesday that the UN will supervise use of the goods, including food, clothes and medicine.

Editorial – The Unemployed Held Hostage

The Anatolian Tiger: How the West Is Losing Turkey

As long ago as the 1940s, Turkey was a refuge for Europe’s persecuted Jews, and in 1949 it was the first primarily Islamic country to recognize the Jewish state. That alliance came apart two weeks ago, after months of mutual provocations and the bloody incident over a flotilla off the Israeli coast.

Concern on Capitol Hill about Afghanistan war grows

A series of political and military setbacks in Afghanistan has fed anxiety over the war effort in the past few weeks, shaking supporters of President Obama’s counterinsurgency strategy and confirming the pessimism of those who had doubts about it from the start.

Richard Cohen – Fighting the Viet Cong in Afghanistan

In 1970 Gregor Samsa, the general counsel of an exterminating company, was in New York on business when he was hit on the head by a flowerpot. Samsa went into a coma from which he awakened only last week. Almost immediately, he read the major newspapers with astonishment. “For some reason, they’ve changed the name of Vietnam to Afghanistan,” he said.

BP ‘Excited’ Over Kevin Costner’s Oil Cleanup Machine, Purchases 32

Dear Amelia,

It’s easy to get discouraged by the news. A seemingly endless oil spill. Seemingly endless wars. But there is reason to hope–even reason to celebrate–the power of grassroots organizing. This month has been chock full of victories for those who hunger for (and work for) peace. Read about the successes below and then move that energy into taking action, telling Sen. Reid and Speaker Pelosi to step up

and lift the liability cap for BP and other oil companies, put an end to offshore drilling and pass a clean energy bill!

The Gaza Freedom Flotilla was a breath-taking global effort, with over 700 people from 42 countries putting themselves at risk to lift the inhumane siege on Gaza. It is tragic that 9 people lost their lives in this effort, but thanks to the flotilla, world attention is focused on Gaza. Even the U.S. policy has been affected, with President Obama now calling the Gaza closure “unsustainable.” Col. Ann Wright, a flotilla passenger and world renowned peace activist, is touring internationally to talk about her experience–bring Ann to your town or donate

to help her spread the truth about the flotilla massacre.

On the domestic front, we have also seen the power of grassroots activism. After an 18-month protest by CODEPINK and other peace activists, the U.S. military decided to shut down its Army Experience Center

at the Franklin Mills Mall in Northern PA! This glorification of violence was a prototype designed to be rolled out to malls across the country. Great work, CODEPINK PA, Coalition for Peace Action, and allies, for shielding our children from one more shameful attempt to lure them into war.

We also want to applaud the parents, students and peace activists in Maryland who pushed for–and won–a statewide law that stops the information about high school students from being automatically sent to military recruiters.Maryland is the first state to pass such a law

, and their victory is inspiring activists around the country.

In the midst of the Gulf oil disaster, we can celebrate one victory for the environment. Thanks to the thousands of you who called and emailed, the U.S. Senate voted down a measure from Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) to gut the Clean Air Act by weakening regulations that keep harmful pollution out of the air we all breathe.

Let’s keep the victories coming!

This week, in the lead up to the June 19th BP day of action

, DC CODEPINK and a coalitioin of environmental groups have an line up of actions around the country to protest BP and push for clean energy. While the oil execs have been on the hot seat in Congress, let’s not let Congress off the hook.

Speaking of hot seat: Tell Senator Harry Reid and Speaker Nancy Pelosi to vote on lifting the liability cap, to put an end to offshore drilling and to pass a clean energy bill that will move us into the post-fossil-fuel era

.

Building people power for a green, peaceful planet,

Amnesty International USA: TAKE ACTION NOW!

Don’t give Myanmar’s authorities the chance to impose any more arbitrary sentences on democracy icon, Aung San Suu Kyi.
1) Demand that Aung San Suu Kyi be released immediately and unconditionally!

2) Get updates on Suu Kyi’s status and other breaking human rights news delivered straight to your phone.

Dear amelia,

Tension builds once again as Myanmar prepares for its elections. Many fear that widespread arrests and detainment will result from election-related crackdowns.

Moreover, contributing to the anxiety is the anticipated release of democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi, who has been held under house arrest for nearly 15 years.

But Suu Kyi has been close to completing her sentence before. Just last year, as she neared her release date, she was found guilty of allowing an uninvited American man to stay at her home after he strapped homemade flippers to his feet and swam across a lake bordering her house. Authorities sentenced her to 18 more months of detention – meaning that she would not be released until after Myanmar’s elections were completed.

These arbitrary sentences just won’t do. Demand that Aung San Suu Kyi be released immediately and unconditionally.

Free Aung San Suu Kyi!

Earlier this year, Suu Kyi’s party, National League for Democracy (NLD), was dissolved for refusing to re-register as a political party, a move that would have forced it to expel its own leader because she is serving a prison term1.

It is painfully obvious that Myanmar’s government is doing all it can to box Suu Kyi and her supporters into a corner. Her very existence challenges the military’s authority because she inspires the people of Myanmar to believe.

More than ever, it’s up to us to stand united.

When news about one of the most iconic and revered leaders of our time breaks, whatever the outcome, we need to be able to call on you to stand with Aung San Suu Kyi and stand up for human rights.

Beginning today, you can get the latest updates on Aung San Suu Kyi and other breaking human rights news delivered straight to your mobile phone.

The biggest tragedy of all is that Aung San Suu Kyi should have never been arrested in the first place. Her punishment is politically motivated and is an outright violation of international law.

But as long as we continue to carry the torch for Aung San Suu Kyi, then Myanmar’s junta can’t touch us. Help light the way for the people of Myanmar.

Help free Aung San Suu Kyi.

In Solidarity,

Michael O’Reilly
Campaign Director, Individuals at Risk

This Week In
Dave History

Two years ago this week, the LATE SHOW debuted the CBS Orchestra’s own music video, which can be found online and frequently airs on the show when there are long closing credits. It’s the band’s third video created during their long association with Dave’s late night shows. Their first, “Dress Cool,” aired on LATE NIGHT’s first Holiday Film Festival in 1985, and the second, “You Kill Me,” aired on LN’s second HFF the following year. The band has released two CDs, Paul Shaffer’s “Coast to Coast” (1988) and “The World’s Most Dangerous Party” (1993).

Paul’s association with his fellow band members goes back 34 years. He and bassist Will Lee first met at a recording session for Paul Jabara in 1976 (the two Pauls later co-wrote the disco hit “It’s Raining Men” in the early ’80s). Will later became a founding member of LN’s World’s Most Dangerous Band in 1982.

Paul and guitarist Sid McGinnis may have first met at either a John Mayall (“Bottom Line”) or Phyllis Hyman (“Somewhere in My Lifetime”) recording session, both in 1978. Sid became the WMDB’s permanent guitarist in 1984.

Paul and drummer Anton Fig first played together at a Joan Armatrading recording session (“Me Myself I”) in March, 1980. Anton joined the WMDB in 1986.

Paul and trombonist Tom Malone first worked together in the original Saturday Night Live band in 1975. The two of them helped put together the original Blues Brothers in 1978.

Paul first heard saxophonist Bruce Kapler and trumpeter Alan Chesnovitz in a band called Benny Harrison & the Spyders at the China Club in NYC in 1986. The two began to sit in with the WMDB in 1988. Tom and Bruce joined the CBS Orchestra in November 1993, and Alan followed in February 1997.

Guitarist Felicia Collins first fell into the band’s orbit in 1985, when she performed with Will Lee, both backing up the Thompson Twins, at Live Aid in Philadelphia. She and Paul first shared the stage two years later in Madison Square Garden at a medical benefit concert for homeless children, hosted by Paul Simon.

Hawaiian Kingdom Records No. 2010-01050: Kamehameha – My/Our Ancestor from Amelia Gora, a Royal person, and Acting Liaison of Foreign Affair

Greetings President Obama,

The following article is a response to your claimed Proclamation on my/our ancestor Kamehameha of the Hawaiian Kingdom:

REVIEWING U.S. PRESIDENT OBAMA’S RECENT PROCLAMATION ON OUR ANCESTOR:  KAMEHAMEHA

Review by Amelia Gora, a Royal person, One of
Kamehameha’s descendants (2010)

The following is a Proclamation issued by an illegal U.S. President Obama who was born in the Hawaiian Kingdom.  Notes are added for many to follow:


THE WHITE HOUSE

Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release June 10, 2010
KING KAMEHAMEHA DAY, 2010

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION

Two hundred years ago, King Kamehameha the Great brought the Hawaiian Islands together under a unified government. His courage and leadership earned him a legacy as the “Napoleon of the Pacific,” and today his humanity is preserved in Ke Kanawai Mamalahoe, or “the Law of the Splintered Paddle.” This law protects civilians in times of war and remains enshrined in Hawaii’s constitution as “a unique and living symbol of the State’s concern for public safety.”

Note:  This law was created during the Hawaiian Kingdom period, and the entity State of Hawaii, an illegal entity supported by the United States has criminally assumed our peaceful, neutral, non-violent nation claiming concern for public safety when they have played a part in terrorizing Hawaiian Kingdom subjects, their descendants over time.


On this bicentennial King Kamehameha Day, we celebrate the history and heritage of the Aloha State, which has immeasurably enriched our national life and culture. The Hawaiian narrative is one of both profound triumph and, sadly, deep injustice. It is the story of Native Hawaiians oppressed by crippling disease, aborted treaties, and the eventual conquest of their sovereign kingdom. These grim milestones remind us of an unjust time in our history, as well as the many pitfalls in our Nation’s long and difficult journey to perfect itself. Yet, through the peaks and valleys of our American story, Hawaii’s steadfast sense of community and mutual support shows the progress that results when we are united in a spirit of limitless possibility.

Note:  the sale of Aloha by non kanaka maoli shows the reckless nature of a pirating nation, continuous rape mentality of an illegal U.S. President Obama who was born in the Hawaiian Islands, which is not part of the United States.

Obama recognizes the “deep injustice, discounts the thousands of deaths from introduced disease, breaches of treaties meant to be friendly, continuous and discounting treaties with other nations, and lies about an “eventual conquest of their sovereign kingdom” when the reality is that legally, lawfully, the U.S. premeditated the move against a friendly, neutral nation recognized in the Law of Nations as part of the Empire of the Pacific, a democratic group with Aetearoa (New Zealand), the Samoan Islands, and the Hawaiian Kingdom since the early 1800’s while Kamehameha was still alive.

Obama further discounts the “unjust time in our history” when the reality is that we in the Hawaiian Islands are made up of a 3,000+ year old society versus a thieves, murderers, English castouts, made up of people opposing their religions and prompted to set up houses on already owned, occupied lands belonging to aboriginal Native Americans.

Along with homeless activities setting up to assume already owned lands, mercenaries/missionaries who began plantations in our Hawaiian Islands moved over to Mexican territory and obtained assistance from the U.S. calvary and assumed large tracts of non warring Mexicans and called the lands Texas.

“Hawaii’s steadfast sense of community and mutual support shows the progress that results when we are united in a spirit of limitless possibility.”  In actuality, the lies built with the support of the U.S. military, government progressed towards the criminal, pirate thinking that criminals united can help to create goals of more raping, theft, criminal racketeering, which can extend beyond the Hawaiian Islands………..and all nations should be aware of this.


In the decades since their persecution, Native Hawaiians have remained resilient. They are part of the diverse people of Hawaii who, as children of pioneers and immigrants from around the world, carry on the unique cultures and traditions of their forebears. As Americans, we can all admire these traits, as well as the raw natural beauty of the islands themselves. Truly, the Aloha Spirit of Hawaii echoes the American Spirit, representing the opportunities we all have to grow and learn from one another as we carry our Nation toward a brighter day.

Note:  “In the decades since their persecution, Native Hawaiians have remained resilient.”  Obama addresses the non-bloods who have pirated the term Native Hawaiians as anyone born in the islands and have accommodated identity theft for the criminals supported by the U.S. government who has done criminal activities against our Queen Liliuokalani since 1893, her subjects (40,000 plus) versus the mere 3,000 Americans who were documented treasonous, conspirators against a neutral, non-violent nation and moved to War with the kanaka maoli land owners, resource owners, water rights, archipelago owners thru the pirating activities of bankrupt U.S., England and the Morgan bankers who were the investors for slave supporting nations.

In 1852, our Hawaiian Kingdom passed the anti-slavery laws, while the U.S. passed theirs more than 13 years or in 1865 after their President Lincoln was assassinated.

“..the Aloha Spirit of Hawaii echoes the American Spirit, representing the opportunities we all have to grow and learn from one another as we carry our Nation toward a brighter day.”  The criminal use of good words “Aloha Spirit” is merely another form of piracy used to assume all that belongs to our Hawaiian, kanaka maoli, good people which is in no way connected to the “American Spirit” which was created by a 200+ year old nation with a criminal, thieves, murderers, prisoners background, the throwaways/castouts of the English Society, the scum and scoundrels who have always wanted what others have.

The U.S. piracy(ies), racketeering ventures in our Hawaiian archipelago is recorded as evidence showing the pirating nature, the ruthless, criminal activities against a free, friendly, neutral nation which did no wrongs to a bankrupt nation now seeking to destroy, decimate our populations in our Hawaiian archipelago by using DU/ depleted uranium, GMO/genetic modified poisons, other toxic wastes in our environment by a claimed democratic nation moving to WAR with everything, everyone under the sun, muck up everyone’s environment, in our nation/Hawaiian archipelago, and many other nations.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 11, 2010, as King Kamehameha Day. I call upon all Americans to celebrate the rich heritage of Hawaii with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Note:  Kamehameha Day has been a recognized day of our kanaka maoli and recognized in the Hawaiian Kingdom for more than 150 years.

Proclamations, Executive Orders are not part of the Constitution and the laws of the United States, but a tradition and recognized as such.  Traditions are not laws.

Although you call your Americans to celebrate festivities of our Hawaiian Islands, know that our ancestor Kamehameha was not an American, he is recognized as having formed our Monarchy government in 1810; rents and leases are due at the rate of $500 Trillion per year in gold coins retroactive to 1893, and Eviction Notices for the U.S. military to vacate our family properties by December 2010 is expected.  Reason being that failure to pay rents, leases, and the continued use of DU/depleted uranium with the intention of exterminating our populations, including American citizens, and foreign visitors, innocent victims of WAR crimes are goals intended to affect the true land, resource, archipelago owners who remain evidence of criminal acts against neutral, non violent citizens whose government did temporarily go “under ground”.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
tenth day of June, in the year of our Lord two thousand ten, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fourth.

BARACK OBAMA

# # #

Note:
“Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fourth”……look everyone, this is not the same United States of America/United States…..and the 234?

BARACK OBAMA name is all in capital’s which means that he is operating as a corporation.  A Corporation has CEO’s/Corporation Executive Officer’s and not a living human being.

Lastly, Queen Liliuokalani prophesied that if the U.S. did not make corrections, the U.S. will fall apart.

aloha.

Sincerely,

Amelia Gora, a Royal person

hi,

Kamehameha Day!…Many descendants exist today, documented too…..

A coconut man born in the Hawaiian Kingdom named Barack Obama representing the U.S./U.S.A. a Pirating nation moves to recognize yet perpetuate lies of the past…interesting.

Thank you for posting this………wanted to see the wording of his “Proclamation”…….and it’s loaded with erroneous information…….or as the locals call it “full of shibai”.

am going to tear it apart and post another time…………

Kamehameha began our Monarchy based government in 1810.
The U.S., a pirating, documented pirating nation premeditated the theft of monies, lands, and placed our Queen under duress through Congress, the U.S. President and former American Civil War General Benjamin Harrison, military, and treasonous Americans who operated in our government positions….

Maybe the following article will give you a clue as to where this is all going. Stephen Gowans has submitted countless articles which has been posted in the IOLANI – The Royal Hawk news on the web from Hawaii which has 293 issues out to date:

What’s Left http://www3.sympatico.ca/sr.gowans/frum.html

Ex-Bush speechwriter: I was to provide a justification for war

By Stephen Gowans

In late December 2001, chief presidential speechwriter Mike Gerson “was parcelling out the components of the forthcoming State of the Union speech. His request to me,” recalls David Frum in his new book The White House in The Right Time: The Surprise Presidency of George W. Bush, “could not have been simpler: I was to provide a justification for a war.”

And so was born the phrase “the axis of evil.”

A year later, the impending all-out assault on Iraq is spinned as “a war of liberation.” And there’s a certain truth to the claim.

It will be a war that could liberate up to 500,000 Iraqis of their lives, according to the British healthcare group, Medact.

It will be a war that could liberate 200,000 Iraqis of their homes, and 10 million of their security against hunger and disease, according to a new UN report.

And, above all, it will be a war that will liberate Iraq of its oil wealth and put America more wholly in charge.

It will indeed be a war of liberation.

And one long in the making.

Key Bush cabinet members had been pushing for a take-over of Iraq and its oil fields for some time.

In September, 2000, Dick Cheney, now vice-president, along with his current chief of staff Lewis Libby, and Donald Rumsfeld, now Secretary of Defense, along with his deputy Paul Wolfowitz, laid out a plan to create a new American century, in which the United States would be supreme in the world, the first truly global empire.

The plan adumbrated regime change in Iraq, that is, the installation of a US puppet regime in Baghdad.

The events of 9/11 were pressed into service to provide the trigger.

Within hours of hijacked jets careening into the World Trade Centre and Pentagon, Rumsfeld was ordering his staff to find something that could be used to pin the blame on Iraq.

National Security advisor Condoleeza Rice ordered her staff to consider the opportunities 9/11 provided, as if the grim events of that day were a sliver lining that could justify the vigorous extension of US hegemony.

In his book, Frum recounts how he spent two days dreaming up a pretext for “going after Iraq,” eventually hitting on the “axis of evil” idea, which he originally conceived of as the “axis of hatred” but which Gerson changed “to use the theological language that Bush” (mirroring Osama bin Laden) “had made his own since Sept. 11.”

While Frum denies the decision to launch a ground invasion had been made when he was asked to “sum up in a sentence or two our best case for going after Iraq,” the events leading up to Frum’s inventing a pretext for the mass murder suggest the decision had been made long before that.

But more revealing is Frum’s attack on the antiwar camp, for in dismissing its arguments, Frum lets slip the real reasons for the impending slaughter: American control of the Middle East.

“I knew that opponents of action against Iraq relied on two main points,” Frum writes. “First, they say there was no direct, conclusive proof that Saddam Hussein aided the Sept. 11 terrorists.”

This, Frum does not deny, but says Iraq, Iran, Hezbollah and al-Qaeda are linked in “resenting the power of the West,” his rationale for drawing all four into an axis. (North Korea was added at the last minute, he explains, because “it needed to feel a stronger hand.”)

“Saddam Hussein was certainly a very bad man, so was Stalin,” Frum acknowledges. “We had relied on deterrence, not war, to contain him; why should we not do so with Saddam, who after all controlled a much weaker state than the old Soviet Union?”

Actually, it was less Stalin, and more Washington, with its insatiable appetite for meddling in Central and South America, in Africa, in Indochina, that needed to be contained, but lay that aside. In reply, Frum says this argument is nothing more that resentment of American power.

“An American-led overthrow of Saddam Hussein…and a replacement of the radical Baathist dictatorship with a new government more closely aligned with the United States–would put America more wholly in charge of the region than any power since the Ottomans. People who resent American power…very understandably dreaded such an outcome.”

In Frum’s view, there’s a lot of resenting going on, all having to do with Washington’s throwing its weight around to “more wholly take charge,” and while it’s no doubt true that Washington’s jackbooting around the world occasions considerable resentment (as the Nazi’s did), it’s clear that Frum regards the resenting as somehow illegitimate.

Certainly, in the case of countries or organizations, resenting a US take-over is sufficient to earn your way onto Washington’s hit-list; resentment is the tie that binds set upon countries into an axis.

Frum’s views are entirely consistent with the tacit doctrine that holds sway among his journalistic colleagues in North America and the UK (Frum now writes for Canada’s viciously right-wing, Washington-aligned The National Post) that the United States is now the legitimate world ruler, whose authority must be obeyed. Under this regime, ideas of national sovereignty are illegitimate, for all countries (at least the weakest ones, unable to fight back) are to consider themselves subordinate, and are to make way for Washington to manoeuvre itself into a position where it can be “more wholly in charge.”

Emblematic of this thinking is the way North Korea is presented in the Anglo-American media: as defiant, for refusing to be bound by an international agreement Washington long ago abandoned, but has commanded Pyongyang to comply with. The very act of asserting one’s national sovereignty or right of self-defense in the face of American edicts is considered a defiant act, as if Washington’s power to compel compliance rests on legitimate authority and not simply the threat of force or economic warfare.

On the other hand, Washington can unilaterally rip up as many international agreements as it likes, undermine some (such as the International Criminal Court), refuse to be bound by others, and brazenly thumb its nose at international conventions (such as those established at Nuremberg,) and this veridical rogue behavior is regarded as perfectly legitimate, the actions of a sovereign.

Stripped of its verbiage, Frum’s account reduces to this: “I was asked to provide a justification for a war that would put Washington more wholly in charge of the region that any power since the Ottomans.”

For Frum, and the velociraptors plotting mass murder in the name of strengthening American primacy, there can be no cause higher than service to Washington’s imperial ambitions. Inventing justifications for mass murder, are, therefore, wholly justifiable.

Pity those who resent it.

Frum’s book is being excerpted in The National Post. His recounting of his inventing a pretext for going after Iraq appears in the January 8, 2003 edition.

(the other day U.S. President Obama said something of the same…)

Dear MoveOn member,

We struggled with whether or not to share this photo, taken of a bird on the beach at East Grand Terre Island, LA on Thursday. It's hard to look at.

But we have to face where our addiction to oil has taken us—and this photo brings that home: (Click here

The disaster in the Gulf of Mexico is heartbreaking—but if an image like this can do anything, it can sear into our minds the fact that we need a real plan to get America off of oil.

Forward this to ten of your friends, and sign the petition to Congress and the White House today:

Historical evidence, genealogy(ies) have been documented and are available at http://www.iolani.wordpress.com or see yahoogroups.com under the hawaiian genealogy society for more information posted regarding all lands owned by our Royal families who are not subject to the laws, and whose ancestors were under duress, stress, usurpation, and coercion, including Queen Liliuokalani in 1893.

James Campbell and his descendants, the Kawananakoa's have criminally claimed lands that they do not own. Their closure of their Trust and conveyances, etc. to the James Campbell Land Company and others remain dubious claims to lands which has owners who were not treasonous to the Hawaiian Kingdom, and moved with the conspirators/pirates documented. The Kawananakoa's including Abigail Ellerbrock, and the Lamberts, et. als. criminally claimed private properties of Royal families whose genealogies supersede their claims of being Royals, additionally, their ancestors were treasonous persons, documented in conspiracies against the Queen, her subjects and our families.

Additionally, the claims of a Fake State, the entity Provisional government, evolved into a Republic, a Territory, and a Fake State, supported by a nation -U.S., their Congress, Military, England, and the Morgan(etc.) bankers which claimed Prvate Properties and called it Public Lands are in parts lands criminally claimed by wicked, treasonous, conspirators, plotters against our families, our people, our Queen Liliuokalani discovered through 30 + years of research on our history, your history, the history abroad, our families, the hidden Royal family lines, laws, and so forth.

Oppositions remain in the entity State of Hawaii Governor Linda Lingle in claiming the surfing zones which is held under the jurisdiction of our konohiki ancestor David Keawe/DW Pauahi for Waikiki; and, North Shore which is held under the jurisdiction of our konohiki family member Victoria Kamamalu who was the sister of our ancestor(s) and the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estates Trustees are not related to us but a consortium of thieves, scoundrels, criminal deviants who conspired against our families, our Queen and our people.

Maintaining our interests in our families, our Royal families private properties, along with the water rights, resources, etc. in our Hawaiian archipelago,

Amelia Gora, a Royal person

"Honouliuli Forest Reserve dedicated today

By Associated Press

POSTED: 06:34 a.m. HST, Jun 02, 2010

The state and the Trust for Public Land will dedicate the Honouliuli Forest Reserve today.

The trust is handing over the 3,500-acre tract to state forest managers to help protect Oahu's watershed and wildlife habitat.

The trust bought the land from the James Campbell Co.

The land covers a lowland forest on the eastern slope of the Waianae Mountain Range. It's home to 35 threatened and endangered species, including 16 found nowhere else in the world.

The land is also part of the watershed feeding the Pearl Harbor Aquifer, the largest drinking water resource on Oahu.

U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye and Senate President Colleen Hanabusa are joining Board of Land and Natural Resources Chairwoman Laura Thielen at today's dedication.

"New name for Arizona Memorial Museum Association announced

Advertiser Staff

The nonprofit organization that has long supported the USS Arizona Memorial has changed its name to reflect its broadening mission.

The Arizona Memorial Museum Association on Tuesday changed its name to Pacific Historic Parks.

The association was created in 1979 as a nonprofit cooperating association with the National Park Service to support and fund educational programs, museum displays and exhibits, and interpretive programs for the USS Arizona Memorial.

Many charter members of the association, originally from the Fleet Reserve Association, had been involved in the fundraising for the construction of the USS Arizona Memorial in 1961 and the original visitor center in 1980, officials said.

The Arizona Memorial visitor center now is part of the World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument.

The Arizona Memorial Museum Association grew over the years to support interpretive and visitor activities at three additional national parks: American Memorial Park on Saipan; War in the Pacific National Historical Park on Guam; and Kalaupapa National Historical Park on Moloka'i.

"Our association's new name, Pacific Historic Parks, better reflects our expanded scope of support at historical sites throughout the Pacific," said chairman George Sullivan. "Although our name has changed, our mission remains the same. We will continue to preserve and support these historical landmarks …"."

"Lingle's executive order establishes two surfing reserves in Hawaii

Advertiser Staff

Gov. Linda Lingle established surfing reserves by executive order today, resurrecting a measure killed by lawmakers in what could be a first.

The move was a symbolic gesture of support for retiring Republican state Sen. Fred Hemmings, whose bill establishing surfing reserves was "recommitted" in the last day of the legislative session in a move Republicans have taken offense to.

Political onlookers have said they couldn't recall a governor ever issuing an executive order to resurrect a bill killed by lawmakers.

The executive order sets up the reserves, which essentially highlight two surfing spots — in Waikiki and the North Shore — as important in the world of surfing.

The order doesn't have any appropriation, and doesn't change any enforcement or other rules.

"It's like declaring Diamond Head a national monument," said Hemmings, in a news conference today."

World Conspirators Meet in Spain

Many of the most powerful people in the world, including heads of state, foreign ministers, heads of big banks, and leaders of the largest corporations, regularly have secret meetings where they plan to control the world. The Media generally hides these meetings from the public, although the English newspaper The Guardian, Russian Television News, and other news sources do report about it.

Bilderberg 2010–Plutocracy Below the Palm Trees

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/blog/2010/jun/02/charlie-skelton-bilderberg-spain

"For a long and luxurious weekend at the Dolce Sitges, relishing its 'new and creative buffet concepts' (a table with food on it), prime ministers will mingle with European royalty, with various EU commissioners, with representatives from Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, AIB, Deutsche Bank, Chase Manhattan and Royal Dutch Shell."

Goldman Sachs, known as "Government Sachs" because so many of its personnel hold high positions in the U.S. Government, is a key player.

What is their plan? It is the end of nations, the end of the white race, the end of Christianity, the end of traditional values, and a new global economy where most people are equal….equally poor and powerless. An American will have the same rights as tribesman in New Guinea or a farmer in the Congo. Everyone will have the same wages and the same medical care and the same pensions (if any). At the top will be the billionaire elite, like the folks at Goldman Sachs, some of the jaded royalty of Europe, some heads of huge international corporations, like BP, the people who run the Media, and some liberal anti-white, anti-traditional value pseudo-intellectuals. There will still be the pretense of democracy, but the controlled Media will tell people what to think, and hate-speech and political correctness laws will muzzle all dissenters and punish them economically.

The world does need a world government to solve the overwhelming problems that threaten our survival. But I have a better idea of how it should be handled.

Here is a list of attendees at the lasting meeting:

http://govtslaves.info/2010/01/07/bilderberg-2010-attendees-list-in-greece-revealed/

Some people claim it is a Jewish conspiracy, but only about 40% of the attendees are Jewish. There are also a few people with old Nazi connections who have attended these meetings too.

I actually like one of them, Professor Niall Ferguson, who has some excellent ideas on history and economics.

hi,

Thank you for posting this article which reveals some interesting people uniting to plan the future, including the Worlds innocents.

Attendee(s)using our Hawaiian Royal Families assets without authority:

Goldman and Sachs – Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates, a pirating, racketeering, criminal Trust based on fraud, criminal conveyances, claims,did invest in them and owns 40%+ interest. The transactions of this Trust created in the Hawaiian Kingdom period has been operating by pirates, conspirators, treasonous persons since 1884 who conspired against Hawaii's Royal Families,Queen Liliuokalani, and her 40,000 subjects (versus the 3,000 treasonous, conspirators supported by the U.S. military, government, Presidents, Morgan bankers, England, and the international bankers).

Trustees claimed to be the heirs, when descendants/heirs of the Royal Families exist. Issues continue. Genocide issue continue. Racketeering, corruption, and problematic issues exposed for the World to see. Ramifications are ongoing.

Attendee affecting the criminal Plundering Upon Innocents in the Middleeast, affecting perpetual Wars for OIL:

Rockefellers are the permanent CEO's of the EXXON Oil Corporation, formerly Standard Oil Company (umbrella monopoly corporation with hundreds/thousands of corporations under their cover), owners of the 911 Twin Towers, and gifted the land for the United Nations which moves towards One World Order/New World Order.

Those who signed the 1822 Secret Treaty of Verona – Austria, France, Russia, Prussia, U.S., England, and the Vatican continue to have members actively pursuing the moves towards One World Order/New World Order.

Belgium, Netherlands, and Spain Monarchs attend, which is interesting because the 1822 Secret Treaty of Verona, seeks to destroy Monarchy governments.

Conspirators of nations meet to be among their compadres, when their citizens can do something about it if they don't want to be SLAVES, be exterminated, imprisoned, etc.

In other words, these groups basically represent the united minority of WARMONGERS, WAR FINANCIERS, scum and scoundrels who would like to enforce their agenda on the masses or the majority.

Message: Research and Study these plotters moving to take away your liberties, enslave you, kill of the environment, poison, make toxic, extermination practices of nuclear weapons such as DU/Depleted Uranium use affecting everyone in the World today …..Watch them and TAKE BACK YOUR GOVERNMENTS……….especially for Americans whose Congressmen and Presidents are treasonous against their own!

aloha.

Advice posted on the forum:
06/09/2010

appears you haven't taken much Sociology or Psychology courses…..or even Social Change/Modernization/Urbanization courses………….

the terminology used over time by the haole are those to deliberately put down, diminish, etc.

such terms used are "children" which makes our people "less than"………don't fall for that move to make our people "less than".

another term is "indigenous" which is recognized by the United Nations as "less than" persons/ groups incapable of ownership of lands, those without entitlement, have nothing, are nothing, and recognized as people who exist with nothing – no ownership of anything…..

you have to get out of thinking American/Amerikkkan.

anytime you need someone to set you on that path of non-violence…..you know some of the Gora's ….some of them will also set you straight as well……we are non-violent, and can give some new meanings to lip service, which is intended to teach varying kinds of people….those who are sweet and tender, and those who are rough, and at times even those who are pilau — what a waste of good energy to interact with those dubious types who don't even live here in the islands.

it is truly amazing to me how our Hawaiian people don't look up their ancestors and go back on their lands, or rent, lease it…………it's irritating to see some of our people stuck and believing the crap that the criminal deviants, pirates around us put out…………….

btw, the heads at the Bureau of Conveyances just last week are discussing the movement of our Hawaiian Kingdom books……if you didn't know already, the intent of the AKAKA BILL is to destroy all the books and transfer all lands once and for all to the U.S.

so, if you have digital cameras folks………howz about working on a project to capture all of the books before the PIRATES criminally discard all?

yes, you've heard it first here…………

btw………why the hell are you talking about Tienaman and other areas that doesn't pertain to us…….my Dad was a seer, like Kamehameha, and he said to stay away from the Chinese…….. maybe i'll say more off of the web…….or ask certain Gora's if they know…….many know more about our ancestors ruling Japan for nearly 300 years than our Hawaiian genealogies….and then certain Gora's know more about our Apache ancestor Geronimo than our Hawaiian ancestors……the fact remains, like marries like……which is why everyone should find out about their roots, etc.

Maintain a neutral, non-violent nation, otherwise, do not link yourself to the Hawaiian Kingdom, because I for one will disclaim anyone with the intent to cause violence. period. end of story.

aloha.

The other wolf stands for joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. This same fight is going on inside of you and every other person too."

They thought about it for a minute and then one child asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?" The old Cherokee simply replied…"The one I feed."

While Israel Kills and Maims …
The Outrage at Helen Thomas

In fact, most of it has been considered of too little importance even to report. Instead, media reports are filled with outrage at "anti-Israel" words spoken by 89-year-old Helen Thomas.

A disappointing day, yesterday– Lincoln won, Winograd lost. And now, a high level Whitehouse official is mocking unions for trying to oust an anti-union incumbent. We're getting the White House message loud and clear. You support big corporations, big banks, you protect and cover up BP and big oil. You push health legislation that protects and benefits Big pharma, the health insurance and hospital industries. When it comes to we the people the middle class– we're useful idiots. Damn it's hard not to use foul language, but I'm really trying. And I'm thinking about our oligarchist president and what he can do to himself.

One of OEN's editors, Steve Leser has an interesting take on yesterday's election.

June 8 Primary: Tea Party has Minimal Impact and More

Buying Elections The wins in California of the two wealthy women who appeared to have bought their elections– Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina– make me wonder which wealthy republican will buy the presidential candidacy in 2012. Is it a stretch to speculate that even McCain's win was with the help of his very wealthy wife? Romney couldn't do it last time. I wonder. Michael Dell's been in politics. But most male gazillionaires prefer to buy politicians through lobbyists rather than the more laborious process of buying elections. I guess I prefer the direct effort of the women, even if it is an affront to populist democracy. Suppressing my gag reflex, I watched FOX news a bit today. They say that Fiorina's money levels the playing field. Sick! Fiorina's ads use fear of terrorists. How new and creative. Barbara Boxer's not perfect but as is so often the case, we face a situation where the alternative is far far worse.

Supreme Court Ravishes Democracy Again

Then we have the news that the Roberts SCUTUS (used to be SCOTUS by the SCU stands for scum.) supreme court decided to block public funding in a coming election. These five right wing scum are re-writing American laws more than any Democrat ever did, more than any Republican ever accused Democrats of revisionism. WHEN America goes down the toilet (not if) the five pieces of … whatever ..it you want to fill in… will be written down in history as major factors in the reason. Personally, Thomas is the worst in my book. Too bad Obama hasn't chosen to select a strong black progressive to stand up to him and show what could be done. We can only hope that there's another opening on the court– among those five.

Another Gulf Spill?

There's word circulating, on the web, even on Fox News, that there's another leak, miles from the BP leak– that environmentalists have sighted it by air. Skytruth reportsPossible Leak From Platform 23051 The government denies it. But what who would believe the government when they're protecting BP, towing the BP narrative… not me, and not many readers of OEN. The response on that second leak is that it is a few gallons a day. Right, and the BP well was ever leaking as little as 5,000 barrels a day. Every day, in every way, the Obama administration is looking worse and worse, as its partnership with BP is fouled with oil and lies.

We have a LOT of work to do.

OEN is fighting hard, coming on strong, criticizing the leaders in congressand beyond. Help us. We need your financial support to keep up our work. Your $25, $50, $60, $100, $200, donations are what keep us going.

Israel Rejects International Probe of Raid on Aid Flotilla

Israel says no to calls for an international probe. It prefers its own probe of the deadly raid that killed nine people on the aid flotilla that was headed to Gaza. This is myopic and smacks of trying to hide something. Wouldn't it be in Israel's interest to have an int'l commission exonerate (if that were to be the probes findings) from any wrongdoing on their part? Something seems clearly amiss in their thinking.

Pentagon Tightens Grip on the Obama Administration and the Intelligence Community

President Barack Obama's appointment of retired Gen. James Clapper as the director of national intelligence (DNI) demonstrates the Pentagon's enormous influence over the president and indicates that there is little likelihood of genuine reform of the hidebound intelligence community.

Jewish Ideology and World Peace

With Israeli nuclear submarines stationed in the Gulf and last week's slaughter in the high seas the nations do not need any more warnings. In fact there is no way to get the Israeli nation "off the tree'. All that is left for world leaders to do, is to meet amongst themselves and decide together how to dismantle this morbid collective without turning our planet into dust.

Standing Up for Helen Thomas

The key problem with the Washington press corps wasn't that it had one Helen Thomas, it was that it only had one Helen Thomas, someone willing to ask the impertinent but important questions. #When Thomas departed the scene, the thankful Washington press corps was finally freed from those periodic embarrassments of having to watch presidents squirm in reaction to Thomas's out-of-the-box questions.

World Oceans Day: Soon to Be World Dead Zones Day?

The Ocean Project, which consists of over one thousand aquariums, zoos, museums and conservation organizations, has designated June 8th "World Oceans Day." As oil continues to gush at perhaps 100,000 barrels a day into the Gulf of Mexico (which connects to the Atlantic Ocean), this day carries even more significance.

Tomgram: Lewis Lapham, The Playing Field as Battlefield

Rosenstock-Huessy was a German army officer in World War I, afterward a professor of medieval law in Breslau until the Nazis acquired the franchise in 1933. Signed for the next year's season by Harvard University to teach undergraduates the rudiments of Western civilization, he soon noticed that few of them grasped what he was trying to say, couldn't square the lines of thought with the circle of their emotions.

President Obama Caused Gulf Coast Oil Disaster Due to Failed Leadership

There are two very different and distinct disaster issues on-going in the gulf. One is the oil well flow on-going, non-stop disaster. The second issue is when the oil reaches the gulf coast shoreline causing another human and ecological disaster. Obama's failed leadership in stopping the oil from reaching our coastline in massive amounts is not setting well with Americans.

Severe Economic Downturn has Taken its Toll on the South

In the decades after laws and court rul­ings dis­man­tled legal­ized racial seg­re­ga­tion in the Amer­i­can South, the region went on an extra­or­di­nary tra­jec­tory toward build­ing a broad mid­dle class and eras­ing a legacy of endemic poverty.

Israel preparing for prolonged ME war

Israel seems to be preparing for a prolonged war in the Middle East, demanding the United States for more military equipment and a boost of US-held arsenals in Israel.

UN approves new Iran sanctions

The UN Security Council has overwhelmingly agreed to a new package of economic sanctions against Iran. Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has warned that new sanctions would end the prospect of negotiations over Iran's nuclear program. "The US government and its allies are so mistaken that if they think they can brandish the stick of resolution and then sit down to talk with us, such a thing will not happen."

A resilient Iran shields itself from pressure by building alliances

even as the UN Security Council prepares to impose its fourth round of sanctions on Iran, Iranian leaders are meeting politicians in world capitals from Tokyo to Brussels. They are also signing game-changing energy deals, increasing their economic self-sufficiency and even gaining seats on international bodies.

Another Gulf Oil Spill: Well near Deepwater Horizon has Leaked Since at least April 30

While the leak is decidedly smaller than the Deepwater Horizon spill, a 10-mile-long slick emanating from the Ocean Saratoga is visible from space in multiple images gathered by Skytruth.org, which monitors environmental problems using satellites.

The Spill, The Scandal and the President

Like the attacks by Al Qaeda, the disaster in the Gulf was preceded by ample warnings �€" yet the administration had ignored them. Instead of cracking down on MMS, as he had vowed to do even before taking office, Obama left in place many of the top officials who oversaw the agency's culture of corruption.

Dan Froomkin: NOAA's Dual Mission Puts Some Data On A Slower Track

Scientists have criticized NOAA for being slow to respond to the threat posed by sub-surface oil that is causing untold damage to critical ecosystems offshore and is heading in who knows what direction. And while no one disagrees that there is a plume of oil directly above the leak, what remains unclear is precisely what proportion of the oil is not making it to the surface at all, but drifting laterally.

Limbo Land: Brownfields for Green Energy

Rocky Mountain Power's plan to build a 237-megawatt wind farm on a reclaimed coal mine in windy Converse County, Wyo., "created another level of scrutiny on a piece of land where the company already had requirements (to recover it)," says company spokesman Jeff Hymas.

Richard Cohen, WaPo: What Helen Thomas Missed

Thomas said, "Tell them to get the hell out of Palestine. . . . Go home. Poland. Germany. And America and everywhere else."Well, I don't know about "everywhere else," but after World War II, many Jews did attempt to "go home" to Poland.This resulted in the murder of about 1,500 of them — killed not by Nazis but by Poles, either out of sheer ethnic hatred or fear they would lose their (stolen) homes.

Stimulus funds drying up as state woes rise

Conservative think tanks have opened an assault on what they contend are unfair job, salary and benefit protections for state and local public employees, arguing that Democratic efforts to save teacher jobs so they have money to spend is a liberal version of "trickle down," a term once applied to GOP tax cuts for the wealthy.

Vanden Heuvel: Isn't there some room for Helen Thomas?

Considering her journalistic moxie and courage over many decades — in sharp contrast to the despicable deeds committed by so many littering the Washington political scene — isn't there room for someone who made a mistake, apologized for it and wants to continue speaking truth to power and asking tough questions?

Jeremy Scahill: Blackwater for Sale

After nearly a decade of working overtly and covertly for the US government across the globe, the infamous mercenary firm Blackwater is apparently for sale. The company made the announcement in a brief statement Monday followed by an even briefer statement from the company's owner, Erik Prince. "Performance doesn't matter in Washington, just politics," Prince said.

Strange Times at Jerry Falwell's Liberty U

The University that the Rev. Jerry Falwell founded nearly forty years ago has survived a number of bumps in the road. While it will survive the conferring an honorary doctor's degree on Glenn Beck, and the distinct possibility that the president of its theological seminary is a fraud, what's up with its attempt to become a local political power broker?

Huckabee piles on Thomas, even after demanding Palestinians leave

Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee appears to be ignoring that age-old advice, taking several moments during a recent Fox News broadcast to attack veteran White House reporter Helen Thomas over her opinion on the Israel-Palestine conflict — in spite of his own remarkably similar comments on Palestinians.

Hidden Menace in the Gulf of Mexico: Oil Spill's Real Threat Lies Beneath the Surface

The Gulf of Mexico spill is vastly larger than the Exxon Valdez accident in 1989, but where is all the oil? While efforts to protect coastlines have been making the headlines, the real ecological catastrophe in the Gulf of Mexico is unfolding deep beneath the water's surface.

What They're Saying: BP oil spill

"BP should try a different tack. It should tell the U.S., and everybody in it, to go take a hike. In reality, the U.S. is guilty of the most appalling hypocrisy. It's too late to rescue BP's reputation now; all it can realistically hope for is to salvage as much money for shareholders as possible."

U.S. 'secret war' expands globally as Special Operations forces take larger role
June 4, 2010, Washington Post
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/06/03/AR2010060304965.html

The Obama administration has significantly expanded a largely secret U.S. war against al-Qaeda and other radical groups, according to senior military and administration officials. Special Operations forces have grown both in number and budget, and are deployed in 75 countries, compared with about 60 at the beginning of last year. In addition to units that have spent years in the Philippines and Colombia, teams are operating in Yemen and elsewhere in the Middle East, Africa and Central Asia. Plans exist for preemptive or retaliatory strikes in numerous places around the world. Obama, one senior military official said, has allowed "things that the previous administration did not." Special Operations commanders have also become a far more regular presence at the White House than they were under George W. Bush's administration. The Special Operations capabilities requested by the White House go beyond unilateral strikes and include the training of local counterterrorism forces and joint operations with them. Obama has made such forces a far more integrated part of his global security strategy. He has asked for a 5.7 percent increase in the Special Operations budget for fiscal 2011, for a total of $6.3 billion, plus an additional $3.5 billion in 2010 contingency funding.

World arms spending soars
June 1, 2010, Seattle Times/Associated Press
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2012006095_arms02.html

Despite the global financial crisis, world military spending almost doubled in the past decade to reach $1.53 trillion in 2009, a Swedish think-tank said Wednesday. In its 2010 yearbook, the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, or SIPRI, said that spending between 2008 and 2009 grew 5.9 percent. The United States remains the biggest spender, accounting for some 54 percent of the increase, the report said. China, which became the second biggest military spender in 2008, retained that position last year. Data also showed that Asia and Oceania are increasing their military expenditures the fastest. The global financial turmoil had little effect on governments upgrading their armed forces, even in countries whose economies were hit the hardest, SIPRI spokesman Sam Perlo-Freeman said. Perlo-Freeman, who heads the think-tank's military-expenditure project [commented] "For major or intermediate powers — such as the USA, China, Russia, India and Brazil — military spending represents a long-term strategic choice, which they are willing to make even in hard economic times."

Note: Very few major media picked up this eye-opening article. With all of the threatened budget cuts around the world, why is no one talking about the fact that military spending has literally doubled in the last 10 years? Could it be that those who own the media don't want you to know this information? For a powerful essay by a top US general revealing the deeper causes of war and military spending, click here

Gaza flotilla activists were shot in head at close range
June 4, 2010, The Guardian (One of the UK's leading newspapers)
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/jun/04/gaza-flotilla-activists-autopsy-results

Israel was tonight under pressure to allow an independent inquiry into its assault on the Gaza aid flotilla after autopsy results on the bodies of those killed, obtained by the Guardian, revealed they were peppered with 9mm bullets, many fired at close range. Nine Turkish men on board the Mavi Marmara were shot a total of 30 times and five were killed by gunshot wounds to the head, according to the vice-chairman of the Turkish council of forensic medicine, [Yalcin Buyuk]. The results revealed that a 60-year-old man, Ibrahim Bilgen, was shot four times in the temple, chest, hip and back. A 19-year-old, named as Fulkan Dogan, who also has US citizenship, was shot five times from less that 45cm, in the face, in the back of the head, twice in the leg and once in the back. Two other men were shot four times, and five of the victims were shot either in the back of the head or in the back. The new information about the manner and intensity of the killings undermines Israel's insistence that its soldiers opened fire only in self defence and in response to attacks by the activists. "Given the very disturbing evidence which contradicts the line from the Israeli media and suggests that Israelis have been very selective in the way they have addressed this, there is now an overwhelming need for an international inquiry," said Andrew Slaughter MP, a member of the all party group on Britain and Palestine.

Gulf oil spill is public health risk, environmental scientists warn
May 28, 2010, The Guardian (One of the UK's leading newspapers)
http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2010/may/28/bp-gulf-oil-spill-pollution

Prolonged exposure to crude oil and chemical dispersants is a public health danger, environmental scientists warned [on May 27]. With no immediate end in sight, there were growing concerns over the effects on public health of a prolonged exposure to the oil as well as to the more than 3,640,000 litres (800,000 gallons) of chemical dispersants sprayed on the slick. Environmentalists and fishing groups in Louisiana say prolonged exposure to the oil, in the form of tiny airborne particles as well as dispersants, could be wreaking devastating damage on public health. They also accuse BP of threatening to sack workers who try to turn up for clean-up duty wearing protective respirators, and the Obama administration of refusing to release results of air and water quality tests that would show the impact of crude oil and dispersants on the environment. Wilma Subra, a chemist who has served as a consultant to the Environmental Protection Agency, said "Every time the wind blows from the south-east to the shore, people are being made sick. It causes severe headaches, nausea, respiratory problems, burning eyes and sore throats." Long-term health effects include neurological disorders and cancer. Subra said there was even greater concern for those recruited to lay booms and skim crude off the water, since they were in closer proximity to the oil and the chemical dispersants. Clint Guidry, of the Louisiana Shrimp Association, has accused BP of threatening to sack workers who turn up wearing respirators.

Oil's gruesome toll on wildlife slowly emerging
June 3, 2010, USA Today
http://content.usatoday.com/communities/ondeadline/post/2010/06/oils-gruesome-toll&#8230;

and reports of oil-drenched wildlife that's dead or slowly dying are starting to emerge. At least one cleanup worker alleges that BP is trying to keep such disturbing pictures out of the public eye. CBS News has gut-wrenching video

of oil-covered birds in distress, including the brown pelican

, Louisiana's state bird, which for many years was on the Endangered Species List. An unidentified cleanup worker took a New York Daily News reporter on a clandestine tour of the hidden wildlife carnage

in Louisiana, accusing the BP of keeping the media at bay. "There is a lot of coverup for BP. They specifically informed us that they don't want these pictures of the dead animals. They know the ocean will wipe away most of the evidence. It's important to me that people know the truth about what's going on here," the contractor said. "The things I've seen: They just aren't right. All the life out here is just full of oil. When you see some of the things I've seen, it would make you sick," the contractor said. "No living creature should endure that kind of suffering." More oil-soaked birds

arrived at cleaning stations today, as Louisiana officials continued to patrol the marshes and beaches.

Nigeria's agony dwarfs the Gulf oil spill. The US and Europe ignore it
May 30, 2010, The Guardian (One of the UK's leading newspapers)
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/may/30/oil-spills-nigeria-niger-delta-shell

The Deepwater Horizon disaster caused headlines around the world, yet the people who live in the Niger delta have had to live with environmental catastrophes for decades. In fact, more oil is spilled from the delta's network of terminals, pipes, pumping stations and oil platforms every year than has been lost in the Gulf of Mexico, the site of a … disaster which … has made headlines round the world. By contrast, little information has emerged about the damage inflicted on the Niger delta. Yet the destruction there provides us with a far more accurate picture of the price we have to pay for drilling oil today. With 606 oilfields, the Niger delta supplies 40% of all the crude the United States imports and is the world capital of oil pollution. Life expectancy in its rural communities, half of which have no access to clean water, has fallen to little more than 40 years over the past two generations. Locals blame the oil that pollutes their land and can scarcely believe the contrast with the steps taken by BP and the US government to try to stop the Gulf oil leak and to protect the Louisiana shoreline from pollution. "If this Gulf accident had happened in Nigeria, neither the government nor the company would have paid much attention," said the writer Ben Ikari, a member of the Ogoni people. "This kind of spill happens all the time in the delta."

Report condemns swine flu experts' ties to big pharma
June 4, 2010, The Guardian (One of the UK's leading newspapers)
http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2010/jun/04/swine-flu-experts-big-pharmaceutical

Scientists who drew up the key World Health Organisation guidelines advising governments to stockpile drugs in the event of a flu pandemic had previously been paid by drug companies which stood to profit. An investigation by the British Medical Journal and the Bureau of Investigative Journalism

, the not-for-profit reporting unit, shows that WHO guidance issued in 2004 was authored by three scientists who had previously received payment for other work from Roche, which makes Tamiflu, and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), manufacturer of Relenza. Pharmaceutical companies banked more than $7bn (£4.8bn) as governments stockpiled drugs. "The tentacles of drug company influence are in all levels in the decision-making process," said Paul Flynn, the Labour MP who sits on the council's health committee. Although the experts consulted made no secret of industry ties in other settings, declaring them in research papers and at universities, the WHO itself did not publicly disclose any of these in its seminal 2004 guidance.

Reports accuse WHO of exaggerating H1N1 threat, possible ties to drug makers
June 4, 2010, Washington Post
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/06/04/AR2010060403034.html

European criticism of the World Health Organization's handling of the H1N1 pandemic intensified … with the release of two reports that accused the agency of exaggerating the threat posed by the virus and failing to disclose possible influence by the pharmaceutical industry on its recommendations for how countries should respond. The WHO's response caused widespread, unnecessary fear and prompted countries around the world to waste millions of dollars. At the same time, the Geneva-based arm of the United Nations relied on advice from experts with ties to drug makers in developing the guidelines it used to encourage countries to stockpile millions of doses of antiviral medications. The first report … came from the Social, Health and Family Affairs Committee of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, which launched an investigation in response to allegations that the WHO's response to the pandemic was influenced by drug companies that make antiviral drugs and vaccines. The second report, a joint investigation by the [British Medical Journal] and the Bureau of Investigative Journalism … criticized 2004 guidelines the WHO developed based in part on the advice of three experts who received consulting fees from the two leading manufacturers of antiviral drugs used against the virus, Roche and GlaxoSmithKline.

Secretive Bilderberg Club ready for protests
June 3, 2010, The Times (One of the UK's leading newspapers)
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/europe/article7142478.ece

The thing about the Bilderberg group’s top secret meetings: you never know quite what is going on behind the police checkpoints. Across the world, secretaries to the rich and the powerful have blocked out the next three days in their bosses’ calendars for their annual gathering, this time at the Dolce in Sitges, one of Spain’s most exclusive resorts. Normally, every minute of their working lives is accounted for but, each year, a couple of hundred of the world’s financial elite and the more business-friendly members of the political class disappear from view. It is all terribly confidential — breathe a word about it and you’re out of the club — but the Bilderberg watcher Daniel Estulin claims to have a copy of the agenda. The big question this time around is whether the euro will survive. “They are afraid that the countries in trouble will leave and the euro will fall apart,” said Mr Estulin. The Bilderbergers are nervous that the erosion of the euro could nudge the world back into recession while public services cuts could trigger unrest and radicalise the political climate.

Report: Revolving Door Spins Quickly Between Congress, Wall Street
June 3, 2010, Center for Responsive Politics/Public Citizen
http://www.opensecrets.org/news/2010/06/report-revolving-door-spins-quickly.html

Organizations in the financial services sector have deployed at least 1,447 former federal employees to lobby Congress and federal agencies since the beginning of 2009, according to a joint analysis of federal disclosure records and other data released today by Public Citizen and the Center for Responsive Politics. This small army of registered financial services sector lobbyists includes at least 73 former members of Congress, of whom 17 served on the banking committees of either the U.S. House of Representatives or the Senate. At least 66 industry lobbyists worked for these committees as staffers, while 82 additional lobbyists once worked for congressional members who currently serve on these key committees. Further, at least 42 financial services lobbyists formerly served in some capacity in the U.S. Treasury Department. At least seven served in the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, including two former comptrollers. “Wall Street hires former members of Congress and their staff for a reason," said David Arkush, director of Public Citizen’s Congress Watch division. "These people are influential because they have personal relationships with current members and staff. It’s hard to say no to your friends."

Strongest Dad in the World
September 17, 2005, Canadian Runner/Sports Illustrated
http://www.canadianrunner.com/content/view/4258/32

Eighty-five times [Dick Hoyt has] pushed his disabled son, Rick, 26.2 miles in marathons. Eight times he's not only pushed him 26.2 miles in a wheelchair but also towed him 2.4 miles in a dinghy while swimming and pedaled him 112 miles in a seat on the handlebars — all in the same day. Dick's also pulled him cross-country skiing, taken him on his back mountain climbing and once hauled him across the U.S. on a bike. And what has Rick done for his father? Not much — except save his life. This love story began in Winchester, Mass., 43 years ago, when Rick was strangled by the umbilical cord during birth, leaving him brain-damaged and unable to control his limbs. "He'll be a vegetable the rest of his life," Dick says doctors told him. But the Hoyts weren't buying it. [Eventually,] rigged up with a computer that allowed him to control the cursor by touching a switch with the side of his head, Rick was…able to communicate. First words? "Go Bruins!" And after a high school classmate was paralyzed in an accident and the school organized a charity run for him, Rick pecked out, "Dad, I want to do that." Yeah, right. How was Dick, a self-described "porker" who never ran more than a mile at a time, going to push his son five miles? Still, he tried. "Then it was me who was handicapped," Dick says. "I was sore for two weeks." That day changed Rick's life. "Dad," he typed, "when we were running, it felt like I wasn't disabled anymore!"

Key Articles From Years Past

Lost city 'could rewrite history'
January 19, 2002, BBC News
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/1768109.stm

The remains of what has been described as a huge lost city may force historians and archaeologists to radically reconsider their view of ancient human history. Marine scientists say archaeological remains discovered 36 metres (120 feet) underwater in the Gulf of Cambay off the western coast of India could be over 9,000 years old. The vast city – which is five miles long and two miles wide – is believed to predate the oldest known remains in the subcontinent by more than 5,000 years. Debris recovered from the site – including construction material, pottery, sections of walls, beads, sculpture and human bones and teeth has been carbon dated and found to be nearly 9,500 years old. The city is believed to be even older than the ancient Harappan civilisation, which dates back around 4,000 years. Author and film-maker Graham Hancock – who has written extensively on the uncovering of ancient civilisations [said,] "Cities on this scale are not known in the archaeological record until roughly 4,500 years ago when the first big cities begin to appear in Mesopotamia. Nothing else on the scale of the underwater cities of Cambay is known. There's a huge chronological problem in this discovery. It means that the whole model of the origins of civilisation with which archaeologists have been working will have to be remade from scratch," he said.

Note: Dozens of manmade complexes found under the ocean have been found, yet mainstream archeologists are largely ignoring these finds because they don't fit the academic consensus.

'Lost city' found beneath Cuban waters
December 7, 2001, BBC News
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1697038.stm

A team of explorers working off the western coast of Cuba say they have discovered what they think are the ruins of a submerged city built thousands of years ago. Researchers from … Canadian company [Advanced Digital Communications] used sophisticated sonar equipment to find and film stone structures more than 2,000 feet (650 metres) below the sea's surface. The explorers first spotted the underwater city last year, when scanning equipment started to produce images of symmetrically organized stone structures reminiscent of an urban development. In July, the researchers returned to the site with an explorative robot device capable of highly advanced underwater filming work. The images the robot brought back confirmed the presence of huge, smooth blocks with the appearance of cut granite. They believe these formations could have been built more than 6,000 years ago, a date which precedes the great pyramids of Egypt by 1,500 years. "It's a really wonderful structure which really looks like it could have been a large urban centre," ADC explorer Paulina Zelitsky told the Reuters news agency.

Indian seabed hides ancient remains
May 22, 2001, BBC News
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/1345150.stm

Marine experts have discovered a clump of archaeological structures deep beneath the sea off India's western coast. Although the discovery has not yet been accurately dated, the structures are said to resemble archeological sites belonging to the Harappan civilisation, dating back more than 4,000 years. This is the first time man-made structures have been found in this part of the Arabian Sea which is known as the Gulf of Cambay. The images gathered over the past six months led to a surprising discovery – a series of well-defined geometric formations were clearly seen, spread irregularly across a nine-kilometre (five-mile) stretch, a little beneath the sea bed. Some of them closely resemble an acropolis – or great bath – known to be characteristic of the Harappan civilisation. A leading marine archaologist says that far more detailed investigations need to be done to confirm the exact date of the structures.

Tsunami throws up India relics
February 11, 2005, BBC News
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/4257181.stm

Archaeologists say they have discovered some stone remains from the coast close to India's famous beachfront Mahabalipuram temple in Tamil Nadu state following the 26 December tsunami. They believe that the "structures" could be the remains of an ancient and once-flourishing port city in the area housing the famous 1200-year-old rock-hewn temple. Archaeologists say they had done underwater surveys 1 km into the sea from the temple and found some undersea remains. "They could be part of the small seaport city which existed here before water engulfed them." says T Sathiamoorthy of Archaeological Survey of India. Archaeologists say that the stone remains date back to 7th Century AD. They have elaborate engravings of the kind that are found in the Mahabalipuram temple. The temple, which is a World Heritage site, represents some of the earliest-known examples of Dravidian architecture dating back to 7th Century AD. The myths of Mahabalipuram were first set down in writing by British traveller J Goldingham … in 1798, at which time it was known to sailors as the Seven Pagodas. The myths speak of six temples submerged beneath the waves with the seventh temple still standing on the seashore. The myths also state that a large city which once stood on the site was so beautiful the gods became jealous and sent a flood that swallowed it up entirely in a single day.

Archaeologists probe legendary city
October 19, 2000, BBC News
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/978885.stm

Archaeologists have uncovered what they believe to be the remains of a long-lost ancient Greek city, Helike. Classical texts suggest that all its inhabitants perished when the city sank beneath the waves after suffering a disastrous combination of earthquake and tidal wave. Some scholars have speculated that the catastrophe may well have been the source of Plato's story of Atlantis, a land that supposedly suffered a similar fate. During the summer, Greek and American researchers … began digging 3m deep trenches within an area of modern orchards and vineyards of about one square mile. These revealed archaic walls, classical ceramic fragments and, perhaps most significantly, evidence that the ruins had been submerged beneath the sea. "We uncovered archaic walls buried in clay containing sea shells," said one of the researchers, Dr Steven Soter from the American Museum of Natural History.

Note: Here is solid evidence of ancient manmade structures that were submerged for a period under sea water, yet now are above sea level. The evidence suggests an ancient civilization from many thousands of years ago, yet most archeologists will not entertain this idea.

Sanctioning Iran Is an Act of War
By Rep. Ron Paul

Before the US House of Representatives, April 22, 2010, Statement on Motion to Instruct Conferees on HR 2194, Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability and Divestment Act.

I rise in opposition to this motion to instruct House conferees on HR 2194, the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability and Divestment Act, and I rise in strong opposition again to the underlying bill and to its Senate version as well. I object to this entire push for war on Iran, however it is disguised. Listening to the debate on the Floor on this motion and the underlying bill it feels as if we are back in 2002 all over again: the same falsehoods and distortions used to push the United States into a disastrous and unnecessary one-trillion-dollar war on Iraq are being trotted out again to lead us to what will likely be an even more disastrous and costly war on Iran. The parallels are astonishing. . . .

Obama’s Doublespeak on Iran
Extending Hands or Clenching Fists?
By ESAM AL-AMIN

On April 12, 2010, President Barack Obama hosted a forty-seven nation Nuclear Security Summit in Washington. He met with dozens of heads of state making his case for a fourth set of crippling sanctions on Iran because of its intransigence on the nuclear issue. His main argument was the refusal of Iran to accept the proposal by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) of transferring the bulk of Irans low enriched uranium outside the country in exchange for medical nuclear isotopes.

The following day Obama met with President Luiz Lula Da Silva of Brazil and Prime Minister Recep Tayyib Erdogan of Turkey. Both countries are currently members of the UN Security Council, considered friends of the US and are emerging economic and regional powers.

Lula and Erdogan emphasized to the US president the importance of a diplomatic resolution to Irans nuclear issue in an effort to diffuse the crisis and build confidence-building measures for further negotiations. During the meeting Obama not only encouraged them to pursue a diplomatic breakthrough, but he also vowed to be constructive and flexible, as well as promising to send them in writing the parameters of any deal deemed acceptable to the US.

Encouraged by the American response, the Turkish foreign minister Ahmet Davuto?lu flew to Brazil on April 16 to meet with its president in order to coordinate their diplomatic efforts in a last ditch effort to persuade Iran to accept the IAEA proposal. By April 20, the Turkish foreign minister was in Tehran testing the waters regarding a possible resolution to the crisis.

As promised, Obama sent two separate letters on April 20 to Lula and Erdogan detailing the US parameters of a possible deal. He wrote that his proposal represented a detailed explanation of his perspective and offered a suggestion of a way ahead. He said that his offer was based on the proposal put forth by former IAEA Director General Mohammad ElBaradei, which he characterized in the letter as fair and balanced, and would enable both sides to gain trust and confidence.

In his letter, Obama detailed four conditions for any resolution to be satisfactory to the US. The first condition was Irans agreement to transfer 1,200 kg of Irans low enriched uranium (LEU) out of the country. He emphasized that this condition was essential and non-negotiable.

Second, he demonstrated his willingness to be flexible and creative in order to build mutual confidence by agreeing to support and facilitate action on proposal that would provide Iran nuclear fuel using uranium enriched by Iran, a crucial demand by Iran which it has always insisted was its right under the NPT treaty.

Third, Obama offered his acceptance to the compromise suggested by the IAEA last November by allowing Iran to ship its 1,200 kg of LEU to a third country, suggesting Turkey as the designated country. He went further by offering assurance to Iran that its fuel would be held in escrow in Turkey as a guarantee during the fuel production process that Iran would get back its uranium if we failed to deliver the fuel.

His final condition was that Iran has to convey to the IAEA in writing its constructive commitment to engagement through official channels.

Armed with the concrete American conditions and after receiving a positive response to negotiate, conveyed to Davuto?lu by the Iranian leadership, the foreign minister of Brazil Celso Amorim flew to Iran a week later on April 27, to prepare for a state visit by Lula to hammer out a final agreement based on the American proposal.

The Brazilian president arrived in Tehran on May 15 and was joined by the Turkish prime minister the following day. In an 18-hour negotiation marathon session, the two world leaders impressed on the Iranian leadership the significance of accepting all four parameters outlined in Obamas letter.

On May 17, an agreement based on the American and IAEA proposals was signed by the foreign ministers of all three countries. A week later Iran submitted an official letter to the IAEA acknowledging the pact and stating its intention to transfer its LEU to Turkey within one month once the plan was accepted.

To the complete surprise of Brazil and Turkey, the White House and the State Department dismissed the deal out of hand within 24 hours, rejecting the same principles outlined in Obamas letter. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton even called it a ploy before a hearing in the Senates Committee on Foreign Relations on May 18, declaring that a sanctions resolution against Iran in the Security Council is imminent.

In an interview on June 3 in Jornal do Brasil, a major newspaper in Brazil, ElBaradei expressed his profound disappointment and surprise at the American reaction. He explained that the proposal signed in Iran was the same as his proposal, which was accepted by the West in the past.

Further, he explained that if you remove over half of the material that Iran has to Turkey, that is clearly a confidence-building measure regarding concerns about Irans future intentions. As for the remainder of the nuclear-enriched material in Iran he stated that, the material that will remain in Iran is under IAEA safeguards and seals. There is absolutely no imminent threat that Iran is going to develop the bomb tomorrow from the material that they have in Iran.

The refusal of the Obama administration to embrace its own proposals not only undermines its credibility before its foes but also confuses its friends such as Brazil and Turkey. Obama was elected on the promise of hope and change by offering the international community, especially the Muslim World, new politics based on honesty and mutual respect.

In his inaugural address, repeated in the Cairo speech, Obama said regarding Iran we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist. But in Elbaradeis view, it was the US that has clenched its fist when Iran stretched its hand.

The former IAEA head effectively exposed Obamas doublespeak in the same interview to the Brazilian paper by declaring that the deal signed in Tehran should be perceived as a first good confidence measure, a first effort by Iran to stretch its hand and say we are ready to negotiate.

The Coming Iran War
by M J Rosenberg

It’s happening again.

The same forces – with a few new additions and minus a few smart defectors – who pushed the United States into a needless and deadly war with Iraq are now organizing for the next war.

This time the target is Iran, which, just like Iraq, is said to be on the verge of creating weapons of mass destruction.

Also, just like Iraq, its president is a supposed madman determined to destroy Israel. . . .

A disappointing day, yesterday– Lincoln won, Winograd lost. And now, a high level Whitehouse official is mocking unions for trying to oust an anti-union incumbent. We’re getting the White House message loud and clear. You support big corporations, big banks, you protect and cover up BP and big oil. You push health legislation that protects and benefits Big pharma, the health insurance and hospital industries. When it comes to we the people the middle class– we’re useful idiots. Damn it’s hard not to use foul language, but I’m really trying. And I’m thinking about our oligarchist president and what he can do to himself.

One of OEN’s editors, Steve Leser has an interesting take on yesterday’s election.

June 8 Primary: Tea Party has Minimal Impact and More

Buying Elections The wins in California of the two wealthy women who appeared to have bought their elections– Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina– make me wonder which wealthy republican will buy the presidential candidacy in 2012. Is it a stretch to speculate that even McCain’s win was with the help of his very wealthy wife? Romney couldn’t do it last time. I wonder. Michael Dell’s been in politics. But most male gazillionaires prefer to buy politicians through lobbyists rather than the more laborious process of buying elections. I guess I prefer the direct effort of the women, even if it is an affront to populist democracy. Suppressing my gag reflex, I watched FOX news a bit today. They say that Fiorina’s money levels the playing field. Sick! Fiorina’s ads use fear of terrorists. How new and creative. Barbara Boxer’s not perfect but as is so often the case, we face a situation where the alternative is far far worse.

Supreme Court Ravishes Democracy Again

Then we have the news that the Roberts SCUTUS (used to be SCOTUS by the SCU stands for scum.) supreme court decided to block public funding in a coming election. These five right wing scum are re-writing American laws more than any Democrat ever did, more than any Republican ever accused Democrats of revisionism. WHEN America goes down the toilet (not if) the five pieces of … whatever ..it you want to fill in… will be written down in history as major factors in the reason. Personally, Thomas is the worst in my book. Too bad Obama hasn’t chosen to select a strong black progressive to stand up to him and show what could be done. We can only hope that there’s another opening on the court– among those five.

Another Gulf Spill?

There’s word circulating, on the web, even on Fox News, that there’s another leak, miles from the BP leak– that environmentalists have sighted it by air. Skytruth reportsPossible Leak From Platform 23051

The government denies it. But what who would believe the government when they’re protecting BP, towing the BP narrative… not me, and not many readers of OEN. The response on that second leak is that it is a few gallons a day. Right, and the BP well was ever leaking as little as 5,000 barrels a day. Every day, in every way, the Obama administration is looking worse and worse, as its partnership with BP is fouled with oil and lies.

We have a LOT of work to do.

OEN is fighting hard, coming on strong, criticizing the leaders in congressand beyond. Help us. We need your financial support to keep up our work. Your $25, $50, $60, $100, $200, donations are what keep us going.

A CALL FOR A UNITED MASS DEMONSTRATION:
Say no to Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer when she comes to Boston!
Say ‘No’ to Anti-Immigrant Racism!

Saturday, July 10 in Boston
East Coast Protest at the National
Governors Association annual meeting

On Saturday, July 10, thousands will protest against anti-immigrant racism at the National Governors Association annual meeting in Boston.

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer’s racist law, SB 1070, has ignited a firestorm of protests around the country at the very time when immigrants and their supporters are standing up for reform. In addition to SB 1070, which legalizes racial profiling and is aimed at all people of color in Arizona, the state has passed a bill, HB 2281, which bans ethnic studies from public classrooms. Other states are reportedly considering similar moves.

In Massachusetts, a series of anti-immigrant amendments were passed into the State Senate’s version of the budget, restricting access to basic social services like healthcare, education and housing. Also included is the creation of an anonymous tip line for the public to report on undocumented people and mandating the state to investigate all reports made.

These attacks come at a time when all people are suffering from the wave of budget cuts and mass unemployment that makes racism and anti-immigrant xenophobia so dangerous.

It’s time for Brewer and the rest of the state governors to be met with the outrage felt by millions of immigrants and their supporters.

Immigration must be on the agenda of the annual meeting of the National Governor’s Association—and our voices must be heard!

Join us on Saturday, July 10 to demand:

* Repeal Arizona’s SB 1070 and HB 2281!
* From AZ to MA: No to all anti-immigrant legislation!
* No human being is illegal—Full rights for all!
* End all racial profiling and police brutality! Stop the raids and deportations now!
* Stop the budget cuts! Jobs, healthcare, education and housing—not war!

TomDispatch.com: A Regular Antidote to the Mainstream Media

June 3, 2010
Tomgram: William Astore, Washington’s Compulsive Gambling

History, or the future (however you want to look at it), has a funny way of rearing up and biting leaders who think they know what they’re doing. Take Barack Obama. Only weeks before the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico, he made a “pragmatic” decision to give way on the expansion of deep-water drilling off U.S. shores in return for

political support on his energy bill that might never have added up to much. In the process, he said

on camera: “It turns out, by the way, that oil rigs today generally don’t cause spills. They are technologically very advanced.” His decision, which left the oil industry’s key lobbying outfit, the American Petroleum Institute, dancing for joy, doesn’t look quite so pragmatic or advantageous now.

The president undoubtedly already rues the day he ever put those words on the historical record. Imagine, however, that, in the same situation, he had done the difficult, unpragmatic thing and said something like: “It turns out, by the way, that oil rigs still cause spills and deep-water drilling is simply too dangerous for our planet, so I’ve decided, despite the obvious political problems involved, not to open up new, ever deeper, ever more sensitive or climatically extreme

areas off our coasts to the oil industry. And I’m instructing my secretary of the interior to make sure that whatever drilling is already underway is safe.” He’d be in a lot better shape right now, though the Gulf of Mexico wouldn’t.

Similarly, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his true-believer government thought that a flotilla of peace activists determined to break the blockade of Gaza by steaming towards it with humanitarian relief supplies would be easy enough to control in the usual tough-guy ways. Call in the military, treat the activists

goonishly in international waters, and a lesson would be learned. And indeed, a lesson has been learned — by the Palestinians, the Turks, and others.

In the process, the Israelis managed to turn the Mavi MaMara into

the SS Exodus

(the famed ship of Jewish refugees assaulted by the British in 1947), the Palestinians into Jews, Gaza into Israel before its establishment, and themselves into the oppressive, imperial Britons. No small trick in a single night. The Israelis will surely rue the day they ordered an assault on the six-ship flotilla in international waters when, if they had let the ships through, nothing much would have happened. In this case, the path of seemingly least resistance — to wield

force — may have profoundly changed

the international equation to Israel’s disadvantage.

And then, of course, there’s the war in Afghanistan, which is for the time being largely out of American consciousness. On that war, Obama made another assumedly pragmatic decision on entering the Oval Office: it would be politically easier to expand the fighting there, blunt the momentum of the Taliban, and worry about withdrawal later. This, too, passed for pragmatism in Washington, especially for a Democratic president, supposedly vulnerable on national security issues and seeking a second term (something all American presidents desperately desire).

So, on December 1, 2009, he went to West Point and, with a reluctance you could feel — even naming the date in 2011 when his administration would begin a troop drawdown — gave

his “surge” speech

to the nation. He could have given quite a different speech. (I even wrote a withdrawal speech

for him whose key line was: “Ours will be an administration that will stand or fall, as of today, on this essential position: that we ended, rather than extended, two wars.”) He would have taken flak. The media would have been an instant echo chamber of outrage and criticism. But he would have made it through and ended two wars. No such luck.

As a result, sooner or later he’s likely to find himself in political hell. Things are already going poorly

in Afghanistan, not so surprising since the war there is the foreign-policy equivalent of a poorly drilled, poorly capped deep-water well in the Gulf of Mexico. The only question is when the spill will begin gushing uncontrollably. Unfortunately, as crackerjack TomDispatch regular

William Astore points out, the Obama administration and the U.S. military high command are now hopelessly committed to a gambler’s mentality in Afghanistan, which means that, as things get worse, the war will only expand. Escalating in Pakistan is clearly

on the mind of American planners, a move guaranteed to be disastrous (which, of course, never stopped anybody). Extending the timeline for an American stay is another obvious option

. Hard as it might have been to launch a withdrawal in December 2009, imagine just how politically difficult it will be, if things get worse, in 2011. Where’s the value of “pragmatism” now? Tom

Doubling Down in Afghanistan
Why We Refuse to Fold a Losing Hand
By William J. Astore

As Congress moves toward rubber-stamping yet another “emergency” supplemental bill that includes more than $33 billion

for military operations, mainly to fund the latest surge in Afghanistan, maybe we should take a page from the new British government. Facing debilitating deficits, the conservative Tories and their Liberal Democrat partners are proposing painful cuts to governmental budgets, including military operations in Afghanistan. As the Independent put it, quoting

a senior military source, “Essentially, the Americans know we are broke and we are getting blokes killed for no good reason. Whatever the [British Ministry of Defence] says, it absolutely isn’t business as usual.” In other words, an overstretched government, low on chips and recognizing a losing hand in Afghanistan, is finally moving to cut its losses, perhaps even to walk away from the table.

CLAIMING YOUR ANCESTORS LANDS — ALLODIAL ISSUES…..

The following article was posted in the IOLANI – The Royal Hawk.

This message is being sent again because the EXHIBIT section was not covered.

The legal documents should contain the following in the following order:

1) Cover page (covers ancestors name, RP/Royal Patent Number, LCA/ Land Commission Award number

2) Affidavit/Certification (family genealogies)

3) Heirs and Assigns page

4) EXHIBITS (Write EXHIBITS in top right hand corner):
a. RP/Royal Patent LCA/Land Commission Award brief history (shows names of deceased owners and successors)
b. Survey Notes (obtain from the Archives, Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii) which shows the map, dimensions of the land(s). (ask the Archivist how to obtain your survey notes….. also ask how to look at the books available documenting awards from the Great Mahele/ Kamehameha III period, an extra step to take is to find out the testimonies in regards to the parcel(s)/lands belonging to your families.

5) JURAT, NOTARY page

6) Xerox two (2) or more sets. The notary usually wants to do only two (2) for a set. If more copies are needed for family members, you could make copies after the notary signs the documents, and even after the filing is completed.

7) obtain a notary signature from your Credit Union, bank — First Hawaiian Bank has a preferred customer account that you may be able to qualify for……worth it because the cost of a Notary will be nothing/free……….at the Credit Unions and some banks also give free notary signature……cousin paid about $50 a couple of weeks ago —$5 per notary signature.

8) take the two (2) sets of documents to the Bureau of Conveyances, Regular System section and pay $25 for a set which covers up to 20 pages. Any amount of pages over 20 will cost $1 per page.

9) The Bureau of Conveyances located on Punchbowl Street is open in the mornings till 3:30 p.m. They do not accept documents later than that time. (Mondays-Fridays (Holidays closed)).

aloha and malama pono.

President Obama, Governor Lingle, Senator Inouye, Coleen Hanabusa, et. als. of the entity State of Hawaii,

Greetings,

In the recent claim of gaining ownership of Honouliuli lands, the watershed, etc., I hereby state and maintain that I, Amelia Gora, am one of the owners of these lands (and others) am one of the representatives of the Royal Families House of Nobles who represent many of the alii families, which the illegal entity state which came to life on the criminal claims of documented conspirators, pirates, treasonous persons supported by Congress, U.S. President Benjamin Harrison, U.S. President Grover Cleveland, et. als. perpetuating the crimes over time, the American military/Military, and including the James Campbell Estate/Company who claimed ownership and made a recent transfer of Honouliuli properties, etc. to the state/State and the Trust for Public Lands.

I, Amelia Gora, am one of the descendants of Kamehameha, one of the heirs of Kauikeouli/Kamehameha III, Crown Land owners, and others including Mikahela Kekauonohi who was a niece, adopted daughter of my ancestors, are the documented land owners since 1848.

http://archives1.dags.hawaii.gov/mahelebook.pdf Kamehameha III and Mikahela Kekauonohi claims regarding Honouliuli(etc.), Ewa, Oahu, Hawaii

Royal persons are not subject to the laws. We are and remain the legal owners of these, and other lands, water, resources, etc.

Historical evidence, genealogy(ies) have been documented and are available at http://www.iolani.wordpress.com or see yahoogroups.com under the hawaiian genealogy society for more information posted regarding all lands owned by our Royal families who are not subject to the laws, and whose ancestors were under duress, stress, usurpation, and coercion, including Queen Liliuokalani in 1893.

James Campbell and his descendants, the Kawananakoa’s have criminally claimed lands that they do not own. Their closure of their Trust and conveyances, etc. to the James Campbell Land Company and others remain dubious claims to lands which has owners who were not treasonous to the Hawaiian Kingdom, and moved with the conspirators/pirates documented. The Kawananakoa’s including Abigail Ellerbrock, and the Lamberts, et. als. criminally claimed private properties of Royal families whose genealogies supersede their claims of being Royals, additionally, their ancestors were treasonous persons, documented in conspiracies against the Queen, her subjects and our families. It’s not O.K. for the Kawananakoa’s to ride on our families claims.

Additionally, the claims of a Fake State, the entity Provisional government, evolved into a Republic, a Territory, and a Fake State, supported by a nation -U.S., their Congress, Military, England, and the Morgan(etc.) bankers which claimed Prvate Properties and called it Public Lands are in parts lands criminally claimed by wicked, treasonous, conspirators, plotters against our families, our people, our Queen Liliuokalani discovered through 30 + years of research on our history, your history, the history abroad, our families, the hidden Royal family lines, laws, and so forth.

Oppositions remain in the entity State of Hawaii Governor Linda Lingle in claiming the surfing zones which is held under the jurisdiction of our konohiki ancestor David Keawe/DW Pauahi for Waikiki; and, North Shore which is held under the jurisdiction of our konohiki family member Victoria Kamamalu who was the sister of our ancestor(s) and the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estates Trustees are not related to us but a consortium of thieves, scoundrels, criminal deviants who conspired against our families, our Queen and our people.

Maintaining our interests in our families, our Royal families private properties, along with the water rights, resources, etc. in our Hawaiian archipelago,

Sincerely,

Amelia Gora, a Royal person

“Honouliuli Forest Reserve dedicated today

By Associated Press

POSTED: 06:34 a.m. HST, Jun 02, 2010

The state and the Trust for Public Land will dedicate the Honouliuli Forest Reserve today.

The trust is handing over the 3,500-acre tract to state forest managers to help protect Oahu’s watershed and wildlife habitat.

The trust bought the land from the James Campbell Co.

The land covers a lowland forest on the eastern slope of the Waianae Mountain Range. It’s home to 35 threatened and endangered species, including 16 found nowhere else in the world.

The land is also part of the watershed feeding the Pearl Harbor Aquifer, the largest drinking water resource on Oahu.

U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye and Senate President Colleen Hanabusa are joining Board of Land and Natural Resources Chairwoman Laura Thielen at today’s dedication.

“New name for Arizona Memorial Museum Association announced

Advertiser Staff

The nonprofit organization that has long supported the USS Arizona Memorial has changed its name to reflect its broadening mission.

The Arizona Memorial Museum Association on Tuesday changed its name to Pacific Historic Parks.

The association was created in 1979 as a nonprofit cooperating association with the National Park Service to support and fund educational programs, museum displays and exhibits, and interpretive programs for the USS Arizona Memorial.

Many charter members of the association, originally from the Fleet Reserve Association, had been involved in the fundraising for the construction of the USS Arizona Memorial in 1961 and the original visitor center in 1980, officials said.

The Arizona Memorial visitor center now is part of the World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument.

The Arizona Memorial Museum Association grew over the years to support interpretive and visitor activities at three additional national parks: American Memorial Park on Saipan; War in the Pacific National Historical Park on Guam; and Kalaupapa National Historical Park on Moloka’i.

“Our association’s new name, Pacific Historic Parks, better reflects our expanded scope of support at historical sites throughout the Pacific,” said chairman George Sullivan. “Although our name has changed, our mission remains the same. We will continue to preserve and support these historical landmarks …”.”

“Lingle’s executive order establishes two surfing reserves in Hawaii

Advertiser Staff

Gov. Linda Lingle established surfing reserves by executive order today, resurrecting a measure killed by lawmakers in what could be a first.

The move was a symbolic gesture of support for retiring Republican state Sen. Fred Hemmings, whose bill establishing surfing reserves was “recommitted” in the last day of the legislative session in a move Republicans have taken offense to.

Political onlookers have said they couldn’t recall a governor ever issuing an executive order to resurrect a bill killed by lawmakers.

The executive order sets up the reserves, which essentially highlight two surfing spots — in Waikiki and the North Shore — as important in the world of surfing.

The order doesn’t have any appropriation, and doesn’t change any enforcement or other rules.

“It’s like declaring Diamond Head a national monument,” said Hemmings, in a news conference today.”

World Conspirators Meet in Spain

Many of the most powerful people in the world, including heads of state, foreign ministers, heads of big banks, and leaders of the largest corporations, regularly have secret meetings where they plan to control the world. The Media generally hides these meetings from the public, although the English newspaper The Guardian, Russian Television News, and other news sources do report about it.

Bilderberg 2010–Plutocracy Below the Palm Trees

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/blog/2010/jun/02/charlie-skelton-bilderberg-spain

“For a long and luxurious weekend at the Dolce Sitges, relishing its ‘new and creative buffet concepts’ (a table with food on it), prime ministers will mingle with European royalty, with various EU commissioners, with representatives from Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, AIB, Deutsche Bank, Chase Manhattan and Royal Dutch Shell.”

Goldman Sachs, known as “Government Sachs” because so many of its personnel hold high positions in the U.S. Government, is a key player.

What is their plan? It is the end of nations, the end of the white race, the end of Christianity, the end of traditional values, and a new global economy where most people are equal….equally poor and powerless. An American will have the same rights as tribesman in New Guinea or a farmer in the Congo. Everyone will have the same wages and the same medical care and the same pensions (if any). At the top will be the billionaire elite, like the folks at Goldman Sachs, some of the jaded royalty of Europe, some heads of huge international corporations, like BP, the people who run the Media, and some liberal anti-white, anti-traditional value pseudo-intellectuals. There will still be the pretense of democracy, but the controlled Media will tell people what to think, and hate-speech and political correctness laws will muzzle all dissenters and punish them economically.

The world does need a world government to solve the overwhelming problems that threaten our survival. But I have a better idea of how it should be handled.

Here is a list of attendees at the lasting meeting:

http://govtslaves.info/2010/01/07/bilderberg-2010-attendees-list-in-greece-revealed/

Some people claim it is a Jewish conspiracy, but only about 40% of the attendees are Jewish. There are also a few people with old Nazi connections who have attended these meetings too.

I actually like one of them, Professor Niall Ferguson, who has some excellent ideas on history and economics.

hi,

Thank you for posting this article which reveals some interesting people uniting to plan the future, including the Worlds innocents.

Attendee(s)using our Hawaiian Royal Families assets without authority:

Goldman and Sachs – Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates, a pirating, racketeering, criminal Trust based on fraud, criminal conveyances, claims,did invest in them and owns 40%+ interest. The transactions of this Trust created in the Hawaiian Kingdom period has been operating by pirates, conspirators, treasonous persons since 1884 who conspired against Hawaii’s Royal Families,Queen Liliuokalani, and her 40,000 subjects (versus the 3,000 treasonous, conspirators supported by the U.S. military, government, Presidents, Morgan bankers, England, and the international bankers).

Trustees claimed to be the heirs, when descendants/heirs of the Royal Families exist. Issues continue. Genocide issue continue. Racketeering, corruption, and problematic issues exposed for the World to see. Ramifications are ongoing.

Attendee affecting the criminal Plundering Upon Innocents in the Middleeast, affecting perpetual Wars for OIL:

Rockefellers are the permanent CEO’s of the EXXON Oil Corporation, formerly Standard Oil Company (umbrella monopoly corporation with hundreds/thousands of corporations under their cover), owners of the 911 Twin Towers, and gifted the land for the United Nations which moves towards One World Order/New World Order.

Those who signed the 1822 Secret Treaty of Verona – Austria, France, Russia, Prussia, U.S., England, and the Vatican continue to have members actively pursuing the moves towards One World Order/New World Order.

Belgium, Netherlands, and Spain Monarchs attend, which is interesting because the 1822 Secret Treaty of Verona, seeks to destroy Monarchy governments.

Conspirators of nations meet to be among their compadres, when their citizens can do something about it if they don’t want to be SLAVES, be exterminated, imprisoned, etc.

In other words, these groups basically represent the united minority of WARMONGERS, WAR FINANCIERS, scum and scoundrels who would like to enforce their agenda on the masses or the majority.

Message: Research and Study these plotters moving to take away your liberties, enslave you, kill of the environment, poison, make toxic, extermination practices of nuclear weapons such as DU/Depleted Uranium use affecting everyone in the World today …..Watch them and TAKE BACK YOUR GOVERNMENTS……….especially for Americans whose Congressmen and Presidents are treasonous against their own!

aloha.

UN First Committee 2010 – we need your help!
Dear Friends

ICBUW has begun working towards a third United Nations resolution this autumn. To keep the campaign moving forward, we need to create as big an impact as possible and for that we need your help.

At the end of the article at http://www.bandepleteduranium.org/en/i/67.html you will find ICBUW’s new discussion paper and a model letter that you can send to your Ministry of Foreign Affairs. There is also a short legal summary. Parts in the model letter that require changing are marked in red.

The letter urges your government to send in a report to the United Nations Secretary General. This was requested by 2008’s resolution on DU. This may seem like a minor thing to do but the this is a good way to raise the profile of an issue at the UN.

Please send in your version of this letter, along with the attached Discussion Paper and Legal Update to your Ministry of Foreign Af! fairs. For the address of your Ministry of Foreign Affairs please visit: http://www.reachingcriticalwill.org/resources/govcontacts/govindex.html

ICBUW will complement this work by contacting states directly and seeking their support for a third resolution.

Background
We have just returned from a research trip to the Balkans. The complete findings will be written up and published by late summer, however in the interim we are using the information we discovered to inform our campaigning as we approach the United Nations First Committee talks in October.

The two most compelling findings were:

Capacity – managing the legacy of uranium weapons contamination to the standard recommended by the United Nations Environment Programme or to the kind of standard expected by your own government is extremely ex! pensive and requires considerable expertise. Of the three stat! es we v isited Bosnia, Serbia and Kosovo – only Serbia had the ability to decontaminate effectively. States recovering from conflict do not typically have the capacity to manage uranium weapon contamination and so reduce dangerous civilian exposures.

Transparency – Bosnia had to wait six years for NATO to reveal that it had used DU and where it had used it. In that time civilians were being exposed unnecessarily. Protocol V of the Convention on Conventional Weapons set standards for the marking and identification of areas where cluster munitions and land mines were used. The same should go for DU – how can sites be decontaminated or fenced off if the authorities do not know where they are? And how can research be undertaken into DU’s health impact without knowing where the weapons have been used?

Iraq is still waiting for the US to reveal where it used DU in 1991 and 2003, yet the US voted against 2008’s! resolution calling for more research on the ground – it claimed that enough research had been done to show that DU is safe.

Both these issues are covered in more detail in the discussion paper at the end of this article.

If you would like more information or advice on how best to lobby your government, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

In peace

I spent two days in NYC covering the Personal Democracy Forum, where the frontiers of web politicking and Digital government are explored, listening to and meeting Chief Technology office of the USA– Aneesh Chopra, web visionaries, masters of social media, top bloggers, all talking about how and if the web and related new media technologies can be used to change politics.

I’ll be writing more on it in coming days and literally lined up interviews with 30+ brilliant, fascinating people.

The icing on the cake was staying with OEN writer Phil Rockstroh and his wife Angie, talking Jung, Hillman, Eliades, the soul, the mythic and numinosity. Brought back memories of the my Storycon Summit meeting on the Art Science and application of story which I founded and ran for six years.

June Slow Start

June is always one of the slowest months for fundraising and, not surprisingly, this month is off to a very, very VERY slow start. At the Personal Democracy forum conference I spoke with an expert in fundraising for progressive non-profits. Considering the size of our subscriber and reader base, we only see about 40% of what comparable size sites see in average donations. What can I say. I’m not expert at fundraising, I think do a better job providing a public forum for progressive ideas.

Please take a moment, if you haven’t given for a while, or ever, to OEN, to make a contribution supporting our work. Click here to make a one time or automatic monthly donation.

Have a great weekend

The mainstream media narrative regarding the tragic events that took place in Rwanda in 1994 seek to portray an image of evil Hutus suddenly killing their own evil leader and proceeding by butchering their angel Tutsi neighbors for no reason whatsoever. This narrative claims that all Tutsis are good people while all Hutus are bad people. Nothing could be further from the truth. Here is an introduction to extremist Tutsis.

We have nothing to apologise for. On the contrary.”

The Hierarchical Paradigm

Within the many-layered hierarchies so prevalent in many aspects of this world, those in high positions of power have attempted to guide the development of all humankind. In so doing, they have subtly obscured the direct connection between the individual and the Divine through layers of limiting language, belief system manipulation, and confining rituals designed to intercede between our inner essence and our divine source.

Each individual can come to know themselves to be free of all forms of external control. This is not to imply that we should not trust others or join together in bonds of friendship and community. It is simply a reminder that relative truth is constantly shifting in the hands of those who desire to control. And even when the motive for their controlling behaviors may be of good will, it is still a form of control. When the revealers of “Truth” within the hierarchy withhold and suppress information, they are usually positioning themselves to maintain or acquire more power rather than to disseminate empowerment to all.

There are so many confusing and seemingly contradictory layers of relative truth that most individuals surrender much of their power to those in the hierarchy who use language to proclaim absolute truths. Language is seductive both to the ego’s drive for power and control, and to the mind’s inclination to surrender to, and believe in, the limiting language of external truths.

Those desiring to control use language to lure the unsuspecting into believing in compelling images and ideas – real or imagined – for the sake of holding individuals in bondage to a lesser truth. They can thus cause many to support the hierarchy even when it no longer serves their deeper purpose.

The hierarchical paradigm represents diverse interests, perceptions of reality, and motives of action. It is the desire to contain and control this diversity that causes the hierarchy to become ineffective in leading individuals to awareness of their divine heritage. Yet this diversity is also what permits it to attract and initially awaken such a breadth of individuals to their spiritual energies and intuitive abilities. Nevertheless, the hierarchy has trapped itself in vested specialization and in the limiting aspects of diversity that prevent it from evolving from an arduous ladder of evolution to a joyous river of light that is aligned with the purpose of empowering all souls to divine equality.

The time is fast approaching when the veils of control at all levels of the hierarchy will be rendered obsolete. It will become the fundamental purpose of those in power within the hierarchy to slowly remove these barriers to equality in such a way that the hierarchy appears to be the savior of consciousness rather than a detour from the road to expanded consciousness. Yet there are those present who will ensure that the curtain falls swiftly for all who are willing to skirt the hierarchy’s tangled pathways, and who embrace their sacred heritage as transformed expressions of the Divine.

Searching for Connection and Wholeness

After consciousness initially enters a human body, it is fragmented into a physical, emotional, and mental spectrum of perception and expression. From the day of birth onward, human consciousness is conditioned to adapt into, and navigate within the limited three-dimensional, five-sensory context of the Earth. In effect, the soul purposely fragments its consciousness in order to experience separation from wholeness.

The desire to evolve consciousness derives from the feeling of being less than whole, and in particular, the feeling of being disconnected from the Divine due to the fragmentation of consciousness. It is through these feelings that the fragmentation perpetuates itself and is passed into the genetic mind, which is the shared foundation of humanity. The collective genetic mind of humanity is the single most powerful component of the hierarchy. It is formed by the very conditions of living in a three-dimensional, five-sensory context that is all consuming.

The desire for salvation results from feelings of inadequacy that constantly surge within the collective consciousness of humanity through the genetic mind. These feelings are again related to the fragmentation of individuals, and to their consequent inability to fully grasp their holistic nature, to reach into their divine origins, and to accept their divine equality with all. Thus ensues the seemingly endless search to be saved from the inadequacy and insecurity that result from the fragmentation of consciousness.

In this state of separation, human consciousness has handicapped itself for the purpose of gaining new experience and a deeper understanding of the primal blueprint or grand vision of the Divine. Once we develop a more expanded level of experience and understanding, our consciousness one day will, through the human body, transform this three-dimensional reality into a self-aware, integrated component of the universe. This magnificent and purposeful endeavor produces within us the urge to seek out our wholeness and re-experience our divine connection to All That Is.

The desire for connection and wholeness, in large measure, is the fuel that drives us to seek out and explore both evolution and salvation within the context of the hierarchical paradigm. It provides us with the motivation to seek help and guidance from a specific group within the hierarchy, and in so doing, cultivate a sense of connection, belonging, and unity. It is this very sense of connection, belonging, and unity that fosters a growing awareness of the underlying union between you, your divine essence, the world around you, and All That Is.

This is why the hierarchical paradigm is essential as a component of the grand experiment. It is why feelings of inadequacy and insecurity are developed and nurtured by the hierarchy. The hierarchical paradigm is a key stage where, faced with inadequacy and insecurity, people eventually develop a sense of belonging and unity, a sense of connection to some grand, encompassing vision. This is also why the hierarchy nurtures saviors who point toward a greater vision. These perceived saviors can facilitate the unification of all people, which in turn, facilitates the integration of humanity with the Divine.

The Prophet’s Journey

Insightful spiritual leaders are able to peer deeply beneath the surface reality of life and experience how intricately connected every life form is, and how the composite of all life is intelligent far beyond an individual’s capability to both perceive and express. These visionary leaders can thus interpret this deeper reality through their personal abilities to perceive and express life’s dimensional depth and limitless intelligence. Yet no one is able to articulate life’s full dimensional depth and breadth with the tools of language. They can only, at best, describe their interpretation or their impressions.

In actuality, all of us are able to peer beneath the surface reality of life and perceive a unique vision of the universe. We require only time and intention to develop our own interpretations. And this is precisely what many great spiritual leaders have taught.

Life’s deeper essence is not an absolute to be experienced by the chosen few, but an evolving, dynamic intelligence that wears as many faces as there are life forms. No group or people has the exclusive portal into the universe by which the Divine expresses itself in all its majesty. The portal is available to all, because the Divine is within all things.

The great spiritual visionaries of Earth have all, in their own way, interpreted the universe and humanity’s role therein. They produced a dynamic vision of life and the universe beyond what was currently defined within the hierarchy. Each of these great prophets or saviors thus created a new portal into the universe and were willing to share their vision knowing well that debate and probable ridicule would follow. These men and women were the gateways for humanity to explore new facets of itself, to engage a part of its oversoul or collective consciousness that was essential at that particular time in its evolutionary cycle.

Yet the visions of these great leaders, because they were articulated with authority and depth of insight, became a target of debate among various subgroups of the hierarchy. This debate then created a polarity of belief. A sympathetic constituency emerged to defend and embellish their particular leader’s interpretation, while most established groups held it in contempt of previously held beliefs.

Eventually, the leader’s interpretations became confined and shaped into rigid dogma by followers who desired to create a new religion or sect. Thus, this infusion of fresh insight quietly receded into the hands of the hierarchy, where its deeper meaning became obscured by the very fact that it was incorporated into a massive structure that both protected and promoted it.

Divine intelligence is connected to individuals and not organizations. Thus, the hierarchy is disconnected from the Divine in a vital and dynamic way. The hierarchy is connected to its own collective desire to help, to serve, and to perform a function that allows the use of power to drive toward the vision of its leaders. In itself, this is not wrong or misguided. It is all part of the primal blueprint that orchestrates the unfolding of consciousness from divine wholeness to sovereign soul, and from sovereign soul to collective wholeness. This is the spiral of integration that breeds wholeness and cascading beauty within the universe.

What the hierarchy has loosely labeled as spirit comes as close as any word to the essence of divine intelligence. Divine intelligence inhabits all realities as an extension of the Divine. It is the emissary of the Divine that interweaves with the hierarchy as its counterbalance. Divine intelligence is the factor of integrity and alignment, which ensures that the hierarchy is serving its purpose within the primal blueprint. Divine intelligence is, in effect, the “scientist” who oversees the grand experiment. It establishes the criteria, selects the variables, monitors the results, and evaluates the alternative outcomes in the laboratory of time and space.

The grand experiment is the ongoing transformation and expansion of divine intelligence through all beings in all dimensions of existence. It is the purpose of the grand experiment to test alternative paradigms to determine, with some certainty, the paradigm that is best able to unify consciousness without impinging on the sovereignty of the individuated soul. The grand experiment is composed of many distinct stages that interlink, leading to the great mystery. Most of these different stages are being simultaneously played out within the time-space universe in order to prepare the universe for the impending expansion of divine consciousness into all forms and dimensions of existence.

The Transformation Paradigm: Inner Wisdom and Understanding

In the case of the Earth, a new paradigm is currently emerging that promotes a clear connection of individual consciousness to the compelling features of the Divine without the intervention of a hierarchy. This is when the fables and myths of history step into the light and become known as they were originally intended. This is the time when language will be transformed into a new form of communication that exhibits the compelling features of the Divine in an artistry of energy and vibration that breaks down all barriers of control.

It is time to recognize that the hierarchy extends throughout the cosmos to the very borders of discovery. It has branches that extend from every star system and from every known dimension. Virtually all life forms are “leaves” of this vast cosmological tree. This constitutes the grand indoctrination of species, spirits, planets, and stars as they each evolve through the branches of the tree.

Thus, the hierarchy is an assemblage of externally oriented individuals who desire to invest their energies in support of a subgroup that has nested somewhere within this greatest of all manifest structures. Service is a driving force within the hierarchy, and in most cases, this translates into the concept of salvation and the teacher/student ordering of the universe.

The hierarchy is composed of all individuals of all motives that have linked their energies into subgroups. These subgroups form independent branches of the vast, cosmological tree that encompasses all things that appear to be separate from the Divine.

The roots of the tree are bound in the soil of genetic memory and subconscious instincts. At the base of the tree the first branches sprout. They are the oldest, representing the native religions of the species. The middle branches are the orthodox religions and institutions, while the upper branches represent contemporary belief systems that are newly emerging throughout the manifest universe. The whole tree, in this definition, is the hierarchy, and its seed was initially conceived, planted, and nurtured by divine intelligence for the purpose of stimulating the grand experiment.

This is the experiment of comparing personal transformation through self-mastery with the hierarchical paradigm’s evolutionary process. Evolution is the arduous and ongoing process of shifting positions within the hierarchy – always assessing one’s present position in relation to a new one that beckons.

The transformation paradigm is initiated simply by the recognition that rather than the dependency-inducing ways of the hierarchical paradigm, there are accelerated, independent pathways that bypass the hierarchy and lead to self-mastery, and that these new pathways can be accessed through direct experience of the tone or vibration of divine equality that is present within all of us.

This tone or vibration is not what is commonly referred to as the music of the spheres or the vibration of spirit moving through the universe in resonance to divine intention. It is rather a vibration that becomes evident through the practice of three principles of transformation: seeing the Divine in all, nurturance of life, and gratitude. The application of these life principles disengages a soul from the controlling elements of the hierarchy, thus initiating the transformation experience.

Free Will

How can the hierarchy act as an interpretive center of truth without manipulating souls, and thus obscuring their free will? The grand experiment was designed with free will as its primary method of obtaining authentic information that can be used to expand divine intelligence into all dimensions of existence. Free will is the thread of authenticity that imbues value in the various tests within the grand experiment. The hierarchy never jeopardizes free will. Only the soul can choose its reality. This is the fundamental principle of free will.

Free will is not obscured simply because an individual is presented with alternative realities or relative truths that delay its realization of divine equality. It is the choice of each soul to what extent it invests itself in external accounts of reality. The choice is always available for the soul to delve within its own resources and create a reality that is sovereign.

The value of free will is always expanding as an individual moves towards personal transformation, and in like manner, is always diminishing when moving towards external dependence. The choice between personal transformation and external dependence is the basis of free will, and there is no structure or external source that can eliminate this basic choice. It is an inward choice that, regardless of outward circumstance, is incapable of being denied by anything external.

The universe encompasses all dimensions, and therefore, all realities are contained therein. In this incomprehensible diversity, each soul is presented with structures that define its free will in terms of its relationship to the Divine. Each of these structures varies in latitude of choice, but each is connected into the superstructure of the hierarchy. The structureless reality of divine intelligence is where free will was initially conceived. This principle was woven into the physical world as the thread of authenticity. It’s degree of influence is determined by the soul’s ability to recognize its own wholeness in relation to the Divine.

When people are unknowing of their inner wholeness, they tend to look for security outside of themselves. Uncertain of their place within the structured and ordered world around them, they often define themselves based upon their insecurities. Individuals thus become only pieces of their wholeness and like shards of glass from a beautiful vase, they bear little resemblance to their aggregate beauty.

If the soul perceives itself as fragmented into its component parts, its comprehension of free will is limited to that which the hierarchy circumscribes. If, however, the soul is clearly known to be a conscious collective, realizing its sovereign wholeness, then the principle of free will is a form of structure that becomes unnecessary, like a fire on a summer day.

If you were to perceive the origin of your existence, you would undoubtedly see how vast the soul is. If you could pierce through the veils that cover your destiny, you would understand how much more vast you will become.

Between these two points of existence – origin and destiny – the soul is always the vibrant container of divine intelligence. It has willingly allowed itself to explore the time-space universe as an outpost of the Divine. Therefore, while the hierarchy may obscure the soul’s comprehension of its wholeness, it is the soul who has surrendered, by choice, to listen to the language of limitation and the proclamations of external truths, and to become seduced by the hierarchical paradigm.

Why has the hierarchy not provided the alternative paradigm of personal transformation, thus enabling the individual to make more conscious choices and more fully exercise its free will? It is because the hierarchy, like most individuals, is not aware of its own wholeness. Its fragments, or subgroups, are often obsessed with boundaries.

Where there are rigid boundaries that define and limit, there is also structure. Where there is deeply ingrained structure, there is a pervasive belief that self-mastery attained through the development of inner wisdom and understanding is impossible. As the time-space universe conforms to the matrix of belief projection, the very concept of self-mastery through personal transformation has largely been removed from the hierarchy’s reality.

Thus, the hierarchy is unable to even conceptualize the transformation paradigm with any precision, let alone inform the soul that alternatives exist which issue from divine intelligence. The hierarchy is not responsible for this condition, each soul is. The paradigm of divine intelligence is primal. It existed before the hierarchy.

It is the soul that has chosen to explore the hierarchy’s paradigm for the purpose of participating in the grand experiment and assisting in the emergence of a synthesis paradigm. The hierarchy is quite benign as a manipulative force. It merely represents one stage in the journey toward wholeness. This sacred journey eventually transforms the soul to reach beyond its role as a vibrant container of divine intelligence to become a bridgeway for the expansion of the Divine into the physical world.

The Descent of the Divine into the World

There is an ancient belief, born of the hierarchy, in a great future ascension from the physical world into divine reality, and that humans of love will accompany this ascension process. Yet in the greater scheme of life, it is the Divine that is expanding to encompass the physical world with the purpose of aligning all souls to a new paradigm. Divine intelligence is stripping away the veils that hide the essential meaning of the soul in the physical world. As this progresses, the soul increasingly realizes its divine equality with all, and its many facets become increasingly aligned, allowing for an ever fuller expression of its transformed perspective.

This transformation of the soul through self-mastery is the pathway into wholeness. It is the recognition that the soul is a composite of forms and the formless that is unified in one energy, one consciousness. When the fragments are aligned and interconnected, the soul becomes the instrument that facilitates this divine expansion. Thus, the soul does not ascend from the physical world, but rather coalesces into a state of wholeness whereby its transformed expression can assist in the expansion, or in a different context, the descent of the Divine into the world.

Ascension is often construed as the natural outcome of evolution. In this view, all planetary systems and species are evolving to the point where they ascend from limitation, and eventually, the reality of the physical world will somehow fold into the Divine and cease to exist. In the greater reality, however, it is quite the opposite. The Divine is descending. It is inclusive of all things. It is divine intention to expand, not retreat. The soul transforms to wholeness within the cradle of the physical world, and in so doing, becomes a catalyst to the Divine’s intention to expand.

Can you see the perfection of this primal blueprint? Can you feel the shifting of the matrix from which your reality is cast? Can you not also understand that you, as a human being, consist of both a formless and formful identities that are individuated as a single point of pure energy, yet live in many places on many dimensions simultaneously?

Only within the soul is the place of deep transformation discovered, where the formless self can enter and commune with its various outposts of form. The formless self is the eternal watcher who lives beyond the veil of form and comprehension, and draws forth the wisdom of time from the well of planets. It is the point of origin from whence divine intelligence flows.

The eternal watcher, sometimes alluded to as the higher self or deeper self, is the divine interpretive center for the soul. As a pure conduit of divine intelligence, the eternal watcher is the only stable guidance system that can propel the soul to its wholeness. Thus, the soul is composed of both a formless identity infused with divine intelligence and a formful identity expressing as densified energy. While the formless is one, the formful is divested in many fragments of expression that isolate its consciousness as islands of perception and expression. This condition results in the soul’s inability to recognize the vast and glorious nature of its existence.

Upon entering a human body, the soul is largely silent and unmoving. It appears like a fleeting whisper of gladness that touches you like a mountain wind. It is quiet like a deep ocean. Yet the soul is coming forward into the world as a harbinger of divine expansion. It is beginning to make its divine essence known. Many now feel the shadow of their soul as it approaches. They consign all forms of definition to this “shadow,” seldom believing it to be the torchbearer of their total selfhood. Here is where all the vows of faithfulness, all the ceremonies of love, and all the feelings of hope can be centered and given over to the divine essence that we each are.

The primary reason that the hierarchical paradigm is so compelling is because the soul has become fragmented in how it perceives its total selfhood. The eternal watcher that lives through the human being is thus elusive to the time-space conditioned mind. Yet it is the mind that attempts to reach out and touch this subtle vibration of divine equality that is forever kindled by divine intelligence. However, the human mind is too conditioned to focusing on the fragments to realize the total scope of the soul that exists beyond the shadows of intuition.

It is for this reason that humanity is exploring a hierarchical paradigm based upon evolution and salvation. Most humans have little or no conception of their wholeness, and require a savior and the acclimation process of evolution to bring them security and happiness.

It is a natural condition of evolving groups and individuals to have a desire, implanted by the hierarchy, to be saved or to be a savior. This condition results in the teacher/student ordering of reality. It is a building block of evolution and the very essence of the hierarchy’s structural existence. The salvation drama is an expression of souls that are preoccupied with the evolutionary process, and this is not confined to a religious context, but indeed applies to all facets of one’s life.

As there are relative truths, there are relative freedoms. As individuals evolve through the hierarchical process, an ever increasing sense of freedom is gained, yet external forces continue to exert control through limiting language, confining belief systems, excessive dependence upon the physical senses, and the seemingly indelible artifacts of the genetic mind. Each of these controlling influences can lead to continued reliance upon the hierarchy as it unceasingly attempts to impose a sense of inequality between us.

The underlying equation of the hierarchical paradigm is: individual + hierarchy = God connection. In the case of personal transformation, it is: individual + divine intelligence (accessed through inner wisdom and understanding) = divine equality with all.

Divine intelligence, though it manifests as the vibration of equality, is subject to the will of the Divine. And as divine intention changes through the various stages of the grand experiment, divine intelligence is also changing its form of manifestation. This change is occurring now within the worlds of time and space because divine intelligence is beginning to set the stage for the integration of the two primary paradigms within the grand experiment.

The Synthesis Paradigm: Integration

The time has come to integrate the dominant paradigm of the hierarchy with the transformation paradigm of divine intelligence. This integration can only be achieved at the level of the soul. It cannot occur within the context of a human body or an aspect of the hierarchy. Only the soul – the integral manifestation of the wholeness of interdimensional consciousness imbued with divine intelligence – can facilitate and fully experience the integration of these two paradigms.

This form of integration occurs naturally once the individual has fully explored the two paradigms and develops a synthesis paradigm whereby salvation is attained through the intention of the soul to “save” itself, and not rely upon external sources to perform this liberating task. This act of self-sufficiency begins to integrate the salvation idea with self-realization.

The next step is to integrate the time-based incremental model of evolutionary progress with the realization-based model of the transformation paradigm. This is done when the soul is thoroughly convinced that experience and expression of its wholeness can only occur when it is no longer dependent on the various structures of the hierarchy.

Once individuals take responsibility for their own salvation and integration, it does not mean that the hierarchy is to be shunned or avoided. The hierarchy is a wondrous instrument. It is symbolic of the body of the Divine, enabling it to submerge within the physical world similar to how the human body allows the soul to function in the physical world.

The hierarchy is a vehicle of transformation even when it acts to suppress information and keep groups in obedience to its controlling hand. It is part of the ancient formula that prepares a new world for the synthesis paradigm and eventually leads to membership in the greater universe. It is the combination of release from dependency on the hierarchy and salvation from within that initiates the synthesis paradigm into manifestation.

The synthesis paradigm is the next outcome of the grand experiment, and in certain vibrational fields of the multidimensional universe, there are individuals who are indeed experiencing this stage of the experiment as forerunners of this expanded form of divine individuation. These individuals are specifically called to transmit this future experience into communication symbols and life principles that facilitate the bridging of the two paradigms. Beyond the initial design and construction of these “bridges,” these people will remain largely unknown. If they were to do anything more, they would rapidly become a fixture of the hierarchy and their contributions would become compromised.

These transformed individuals are not present in the physical world to be formal teachers. They are present to be catalysts and designers. They are present to ensure that divine intelligence is allowed to balance the dominant force of the hierarchy. Their interest is not in creating a new belief system. Instead, they will focus on developing new communication symbols through various art forms that facilitate the soul’s detachment from the controlling aspects of the hierarchy. These people will also demonstrate the natural ease of interweaving the two primary strands of existence into a synthesis paradigm.

What these individuals will be doing, in effect, is to transform the time-space universe from hierarchical ladders of consciousness into inclusions of the Divine. In other words, divine reality will be extended into the physical world, and all life forms herein will experience this extension through a transformed hierarchical structure that is fully aligned with divine intelligence. What some call “heaven on earth” is merely the echo of a realization of this impending future time.

What is currently bearing down on the time-space universe is the expansion of the Divine through the accessibility of divine intelligence information to all souls regardless of form or structure.

Awakening

Once this information is accessible to all, every soul will eventually be inexorably drawn in this direction. And once each individual’s inner spirit then becomes fully awakened, all souls will become part of the synthesis paradigm. What is being set in motion now in the physical world is the initial preparation for these paradigm shifts. More specifically, upon the Earth, these paradigms will be simultaneously played out over the next epoch of time. As always, it will be the choice of each one of us as to which paradigm we embrace in our journey.

In the advancing epoch of human development, new pathways beyond this synthesis paradigm will be collectively designed so that a transformed hierarchy can be constructed that is consciously fashioned from divine intelligence information. This new structure will be cast from the knowledge gained from the grand experiments of the time-space universe, and the cosmic cycle will regenerate itself into a new, expanded manifestation of reality. This new paradigm resists definition. Words are inadequate to describe even the shadowy outlines of this new form of existence that is emerging from out of the synthesis paradigm.

These various paradigms generally occur in a predetermined sequence, but not necessarily in a predetermined timeframe. The sequence of the divine expansion is: divine intelligence creation of a new reality; the ongoing development of a soul constructed hierarchy to act as the superstructure of the new creation; the emergence from the hierarchy of a dominant paradigm; the introduction of the divine intelligence paradigm; the integration of these two paradigms to form a synthesis paradigm of divine equality; and finally, divine expansion to the inclusion of all dimensions and souls.

When this sequencing of the primal blueprint is achieved, the process with all that has been learned will be reconfigured, and a new element of the primal blueprint will be revealed that is unknown at this stage even by divine intelligence. The time required to fulfill the complete cycle is undetermined, but it is reasonable to expect that its completion is yet so distant in time that to attach measurement would simply be a feeble attempt at estimating the unknowable.

Let there be no mistake, however, that the fulfillment of the primal blueprint is indeed the direction all souls are traveling. While all souls, as inspired manifestations of the Divine, are bestowed free will within their own realities, their ultimate destiny is not a matter of free will. The origin of all souls lies in the realm of divine intelligence, and it is divine intelligence that determines destiny as well. Yet souls are provided a tremendous latitude of choices to propel themselves from origin to destiny, and to reemerge as expanded manifestations of the Divine with a transformed vision of their own identity.

All of the highest imaginings of humanity are yet unaware of the deepest foundation of the primal blueprint. We have sought the upper reaches of the building, yet remain unaware of the foundation’s design. It is here, at the very core of existence, that the Divine is bursting forth with its creative energy. Yet it is simultaneously reintegrating with its invitation to wholeness. It is here that equality is realized, not in the lofty places of relative truth lodged in the hierarchy, but rather in the deepest part of the foundational plan of life’s original source and ultimate destiny, where time reintegrates itself into timelessness.

The origin and destiny of existence is the tone of equality in life. Listen for this tone – this frequency of vibration – and follow it back into the very foundation from whence all things arise and return.

Consider these words as symbols only. Remember that language can be a tool of limitation. Feeling is an antidote to limitation that permits humanity to leap over boundaries imposed by the logical mind and witness first hand the wordless power of collective energy individuated.

Feel the truth that stands behind these words, and tap into this empowering energy force that reaches out for you. Know it as a tone or vibration – a resonance that waits for you around every corner in which your life will turn. It is a beacon of the Divine gathering itself into the form of language in order to usher you to a place from which you can experience the formless tone of equality – the bypass of limitation. It is the primal language of our divine source that bestows to you the freedom to generate your own deepest beauty in the expression of your highest truth.

Let me also make a small listening recommendation. For any of you who are Studs Terkel fans, don’t miss Sydney Lewis’s “Working with Studs,” a loving, touching memorial to our greatest listener (who never stopped talking). It’s how he was — by those, including me, who at one point or another worked with him.

Now, read Andy Kroll’s intro to Lewis Lapham’s latest. One of my favorite writers, Lapham is fast becoming a TD regular, this time focusing on sports as another battlefield in American life. It’s also the introductory essay for the latest issue of Lapham’s Quarterly, the most inventive new magazine I’ve seen in a while. Tom]

When I think about John Wooden, the greatest basketball coach in the game’s 119-year history, the player who comes to mind, oddly enough, is Steve Patterson. A 6’9” center, industrious and tough on the glass, he was best known as a trivia question: Who played center between the reigns of two UCLA legends, Lew Alcindor and Bill Walton? Nevertheless, Patterson was remarkable. Under Wooden, he won three NCAA championships and three Pacific-8 conference titles, losing only three times in 90 games. His 87th victory, the 1971 championship against Villanova, was his finest — 29 points, eight rebounds, four assists. After Wooden, Patterson spent five years playing in the National Basketball Association, but found pro-ball a letdown and a kind of purgatory.

He once described Wooden’s coaching style like this: “The practices were choreographed like a ballet. The sharp cuts, the sounds of sneakers squeaking on the wood floor, the ball popping, Coach Wooden’s voice echoing in the Pavilion, the feeling of harmony — it was as close to perfection as you can imagine.”

On Friday, Wooden died. He was 99.

I grew up in a family of Wooden acolytes. I’ve read his many books and can recite his aphorisms — “Be quick, but don’t hurry.” “Make each day your masterpiece.” — at the drop of a hat. I’ve kept a copy of his famous Pyramid of Success with me since I was young and yet I find that I don’t feel sad about his death. He lived long, was sharp till the end, achieved great success, and taught generations of students and athletes.

What’s troubling is the game Wooden leaves behind. With its vulture coaches, billion-dollar TV deals, and corporate sheen, college basketball looks increasingly indistinguishable from the NBA that so disappointed Patterson (or worse). Wooden spent a lifetime teaching people how to compete and be true to the game, yet his lessons seem lost on the John Caliparis and Kelvin Sampsons of today. Wooden stayed at UCLA for 27 years; rare nowadays is the coach who bothers to stick around anywhere in an era of glitzier, more lucrative offers.

Given the money involved, recruiting scandals are now ubiquitous, the latest accusations being those leveled against that powerhouse, the University of Connecticut, and its head coach John Calhoun. In 2010, coaches like Wooden don’t really preside over the game at all. The people who run the show are the ones with the deepest pockets, the boosters and sponsors, the media executives who inked the $10.8 billion, 14-year deal between Turner Broadcasting and CBS to televise the NCAA men’s March Madness tournament.

Indeed, as Lewis Lapham, former editor of Harper’s Magazine, writes, much of the sporting world has become a cash-flush, slickly packaged spectacle, a modern circus for today’s Romans. Lapham’s essay introduces the new issue of Lapham’s Quarterly, a gem of a magazine that unites around a single topic the most provocative, original voices in history.

“The space of play and the space of thought are the two theaters of freedom.” — Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy

Rosenstock-Huessy was a German army officer in World War I, afterward a professor of medieval law in Breslau until the Nazis acquired the franchise in 1933. Signed for the next year’s season by Harvard University to teach undergraduates the rudiments of Western civilization, he soon noticed that few of them grasped what he was trying to say, couldn’t square the lines of thought with the circle of their emotions. To overcome the difficulties the professor recast his lectures in the idiom of sports and games, the only world, he said, “in which the American student really has confidence… this world encompasses all of his virtues and experiences, affections and interests.”

Gaza blockade: Iran offers escort to next aid convoy
by Ian Black, Middle East editor

Iran has warned that it could send Revolutionary Guard naval units to escort humanitarian aid convoys seeking to break the Israeli blockade of Gaza a move that would certainly be challenged by Israel. . . .

George Galloway, the founder of Viva Palestina, announced in London that two simultaneous convoys “one by land via Egypt and the other by sea” would set out in September to break the Gaza blockade. The sea convoy of up to 60 ships will travel around the Mediterranean gathering ships, cargo and volunteers.

The Observer (UK)

With the blockade, there can be no progress Israeli action against Gaza is counterproductive and puts the country itself in more peril

Editorial

In the aftermath of Israel’s lethal raid on the Free Gaza flotilla, a growing international consensus has emerged that Israel’s three-year-old blockade of the coastal strip, home to 1.5 million, is unsustainable both morally and practically. Morally, because the notion of collective punishment of Gazans who voted, in largely free elections, for Hamas in 2006 seems not only repugnant but in its application is arbitrary and cruel. Practically, because far from engineering the fall of Hamas by putting Gazans “on a diet”, as Israel had counted on, it has only strengthened the Islamic group.

As Israel’s security forces detained another ship attempting to run the embargo, the Rachel Corrie, the justifications for continuing the blockade were becoming ever more convoluted. As Bradley Burston, an Israeli columnist wrote last week, it is no longer about Israel’s defence but about the sterile business of defending the fact of the siege itself. It is worth recalling that the embargo was initiated not as a response to the rocket fire from groups in Gaza aimed at Israeli towns but in response to Hamas’s seizure of power in Gaza from a Fatah movement that had attempted to block Hamas’s popular mandate.

Israel has produced copies of restaurant menus from Gaza to show that the residents of the strip are not facing any real hardship. That is belied by rates of malnutrition now standing at 10%. Gaza’s markets, the same material insists, are full too. Which is true as far as the claim goes. But those goods are at much inflated prices that only a minority can afford to purchase.

Now in the aftermath of the boarding of the Mavi Marmara, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and his ministers have furnished yet more justifications for Israel continuing with its siege: that an ending of the embargo would result in wholesale weapons smuggling, a legitimate concern, and the fear of the establishment of an “Iranian port” in Gaza, a quickly manufactured fantasy. Others have attempted to divert attention from the realities of Gaza further still, depicting the flotilla as a cynical attempt to “delegitimise” Israel.

History has shown blockades of this kind are rarely successful. Most notably, the decades-old US embargo of Cuba has achieved next to nothing. And the facts about Gaza are not difficult to establish.

It is a miserable and impoverished place, but not strictly starving as claimed by some activists campaigning against the siege. What exists are terrible humiliations. While Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs likes to boast about treating seriously ill Gazans in its hospitals, the process is so uncertain that patients have died waiting for approval. The aftermath of last year’s Israeli war against Gaza left a legacy of widespread damage to homes, infrastructure and agriculture, the reconstruction of which Israel has blocked by preventing the passage of the materials required to rebuild.

Then there is the more pernicious impact of the embargo: economic, social and psychological. Before the blockade, much of Gaza’s income came from the export of products such as flowers and strawberries and from day workers travelling to Israel. Fishermen, too, are prevented from crossing a maritime exclusion zone policed by Israeli gunboats, visible cruising along the coast. And in a place with crushing unemployment it is not only those at the bottom of the economic scale who have been punished by Israel’s enforced “diet”. In a society that puts much emphasis on education, the opportunities for a generation of young Gazans to pursue the careers they have been trained for are very limited.

The consequence has been the creation of an angry and frustrated society which has become ever more radicalised and has learned to associate Hamas as it once associated Yasser Arafat and his Fatah movement with resistance and national self-determination.

The bitter irony is that it is not only Gaza that has been damaged by the blockade. More than its two ill-fated wars in Lebanon, its numerous military offensives against its Palestinian neighbours, its targeted killings or even the construction of its separation wall, the prosecution of the blockade against Gaza and the effort of justifying the unjustifiable has corrupted Israel’s own increasingly militarised political culture. With few exceptions until last week, most Israelis have demonstrated a shocking lack of interest in what is being done to Gaza in their name, echoing the general lack of empathy for those hundreds of civilians who died during Operation Cast Lead last year.

This can be explained in large part by the fact that Israel’s leaders and government have fostered an almost permanent culture of conflict, insisting that their country is “at war” and in the frontline against an Islamist insurgency against the west, rather than embroiled in a long-standing political and territorial crisis with a security component. It has damaged Israel’s diplomatic relationships to the extent that it has now alienated Turkey, its closest Muslim ally, and pushed the US, which had largely ignored Gaza since Barack Obama’s inauguration, into calling for the blockade to end.

The critical issue is what the ending of that siege might mean. If the lifting of the blockade means only the inclusion of more items on Israel’s list of goods that are allowed to enter Gaza, then the embargo will not have ended, it will only have been ameliorated. For it to be truly lifted, a far more humane approach to Gaza’s residents is required. It should be one that allows them access to the outside world both for their goods and to travel; to develop as an economy and a society and to persuade Gazans that their home is not a prison but a place of opportunity.

For that to happen requires a wholesale change in Israel’s mindset as well as that of Hamas. Hamas must be persuaded that as a broad movement it will lose nothing in accepting the right of Israel to exist. Additional measures should include the release of kidnapped Israeli soldier Gilad Schalit and the commitment to a long-term ceasefire which Hamas has long suggested that it can deliver.

Israel, no less importantly, must recognise that its default position on the deterrent value of the disproportionate use of military force to solve problems not only undermines its standing in the international community but is deeply counterproductive, putting Israel in more peril, not less.

END THE ILLEGAL BLOCKADE AND SIEGE OF GAZA NOW!

Sign the Petition Now: http://www.iacenter.org/palestine/flotillamassacrepetition

Be part of the international opposition to the blockade of Gaza. Make your voice heard! The International Action Center urges you to sign a petition demanding justice in the wake of Israel’s latest brutality — the massacre of 9 or more unarmed activists by the Israeli army in international waters north of Gaza. Your message will go to President Barack Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Vice President Joe Biden, Congressional leaders, U.N. Secretary General Ban, members of the U.N. Security Council, U.N. member states, and the President, Prime Minister, and Cabinet of Israel along with Major media representatives and the International Red Cross.

The killed and wounded activists were part of a 750-member delegation on a six-boat flotilla attempting to bring humanitarian aid to the besieged people of Gaza.

Representing 40 different countries and led by the Free Gaza Movement and Insani Yardim Vakfi, a Turkish organization, the flotilla carried some 10,000 tons of humanitarian aid, including medical and construction supplies. A recent World Health Organization report states that the health of Gaza’s population continues to deteriorate as a result of a three-year Israeli blockade — a form of collective punishment unleashed by Israel after Hamas took electoral power in the area.

Some 70 miles off the Israeli coast, Israeli naval vessels surrounded the convoy on May 31. In an act of piracy, masked Israeli commandoes slid down ropes from helicopters onto the largest of the ships. Journalists aboard the ship reported that the troops started firing before they even touched down. Passengers aboard the ship were waving white flags at the time of the invasion.

According to reports, the Israeli navy seized all six ships and have imprisoned or deported all the other participants.

Protests broke out around the world in condemnation of the massacre. In cities across the U.S., the IAC organized and participated in protests denouncing the U.S. for providing military and other material support to client-state Israel. The Obama administration has pledged at least $30 billion in military aid to Israel over the next 10 years.

While many Middle Eastern and European governments denounced the attack, the U.S. response was tepid. According to the New York Times, the White House released a statement expressing “regrets about the loss of life.” (May 31)

These continued attacks on the Palestinian people and their allies will only increase the call for boycott, divestment and sanctions against Israel. Indeed, the massacre has sparked a world-wide uprising of resistance to the blockade, and many more, larger aid flotillas are being organized to challenge this Israeli state-terrorist piracy. This most recent atrocity exposes not only the ruthlessness of the settler Israeli state — and the U.S. as its sponsor — but also shows the steadfastness and determination of people around the world to free Palestine. We must keep up the pressure to demand a free Palestine!

Condemn the Israeli Freedom Flotilla Massacre!
Release All Activists Detained in Israeli Jails!
Deliver All the Confiscated Aid!
End All U.S. Aid to Israel!
END THE ILLEGAL SIEGE AND BLOCKADE OF GAZA NOW!

I am writing to demand justice in the wake of Israel’s latest brutality — the massacre of 9 or more unarmed activists by the Israeli army in international waters north of Gaza. The activists were part of a 750-member delegation on the six-boat Gaza Freedom Flotilla attempting to bring humanitarian aid to the besieged people of Gaza.

Representing 40 different countries and led by the Free Gaza Movement and Insani Yardim Vakfi, a Turkish organization, the flotilla carried some 10,000 tons of humanitarian aid, including medical and construction supplies. A recent World Health Organization report states that the health of Gaza’s population continues to deteriorate as a result of a three-year Israeli blockade — a form of collective punishment unleashed by Israel after Hamas took electoral power in the area.

Some 70 miles off the Israeli coast, Israeli naval vessels surrounded the convoy on May 31. In an act of piracy, masked Israeli commandoes slid down ropes from helicopters onto the largest of the ships. Journalists aboard the ship reported that the troops started firing before they even touched down. Passengers aboard the ship were waving white flags at the time of the invasion.

According to reports, the Israeli navy seized all six ships and have imprisoned or deported all the other participants.

Protests broke out around the world in condemnation of the massacre. In cities across the U.S., protests denounced the U.S. for providing military and other material support to client-state Israel. The Obama administration has pledged at least $30 billion in military aid to Israel over the next 10 years.

While many Middle Eastern and European governments denounced the attack, the U.S. response was tepid. According to the New York Times, the White House released a statement expressing “regrets about the loss of life.” (May 31) These continued attacks on the Palestinian people and their allies will only increase the call for boycott, divestment and sanctions against Israel. Indeed, the massacre has sparked a world-wide uprising of resistance to the blockade, and many more, larger aid flotillas are being organized to challenge this Israeli state-terrorist piracy. This most recent atrocity exposes not only the ruthlessness of the settler Israeli state — and the U.S. as its sponsor — but also shows the steadfastness and determination of people around the world to free Palestine.

Condemn the Israeli Freedom Flotilla Massacr
Release All Activists Detained in Israeli Jails!
Deliver All the Confiscated Aid!
End All U.S. Aid to Israel!
END THE ILLEGAL SIEGE AND BLOCKADE OF GAZA NOW!

Sincerely,

Welcome to the newsletter for gizmag Emerging Technology Magazine.

These are the headlines for June the 8th, 2010.

Jobs: iPhone 4 is the biggest leap since the original

As expected, Apple today pulled the wraps off the fourth generation iPhone at the WWDC conference in San Jose. While the phone didn’t receive its expected iPhone HD monicker, it’s certainly as HD as a phone is likely to get any time soon, with a 960 x 640 resolution equalling a whopping pixel density of 326 pixels per inch. Read on for the rest of the new features. Read More

Audi travolution: vehicle to traffic light communication system reduces fuel consumption

Traffic lights are an essential part of keeping chaos off the streets of our modern cities, but the idea didn’t exactly get off to a flying start. The first gas-lit traffic light appeared outside the British Houses of Parliament in London in December 1868 but exploded two months later (which was bad news for the policeman operating it) and when the first electric lights appeared in the U.S. in 1912, apparently no-one wanted to stop for a “flashing bird house.” Gradually the technology improved and interconnected lights that could be automatically rather than manually controlled appeared in the 1920s. Now we could be seeing another great leap forward – traffic lights that talk to cars. That’s the basis of Audi’s travolution project which sets up a dialogue between vehicles and traffic lights in order to keep traffic flowing, save fuel, reduce emissions and possibly help keep drivers saner in the process.

Thermoelectric boots charge your mobile phone

European Telco Orange is showing off an interesting phone charging prototype – a set of Wellington Boots with a ‘power generating sole’ that converts heat from your feet into electrical power to charge your battery-powered handhelds. You’ll need to walk for twelve hours in your “Orange Power Wellies” to get an hour of battery life but we still think it’s remarkable that such significant amounts of energy can be harvested from normal human activity. In order to decrease the length of time you need to charge your phone, try dancing or running, because the hotter your feet get, the more energy you produce. Read More

Holomagic iPhone flash Photography Case

The new iPhone 4 finally has an LED flash but that hasn’t stopped a bunch of manufacturers such as Quirky and Snapturelabs creating accessories for prior models. We saw another ripping contender at Computex last week in the form of the Holomagic which puts out an intense light from an LED from a battery case with plenty (285 mAh) of battery life and a choice of leather or plastic protective cases too.

Adobe Lightroom 3: New features introduced since the public beta

If you’re a fan of Adobe’s indispensable digital darkroom software, Lightroom then chances are you might have already had a nose around some of its new features and improvements in the beta. Although most of the major updates were introduced during this public pre-release we’re pleased to say a few more features have come to light in the final version announced today. Read More

New 360 degree video surveillance system gives criminals nowhere to hide

It might be a sad indictment on today’s society but surveillance cameras are an increasingly common sight on city streets around the world. Most of these systems employ a fish-eye lens to capture a wide field of view, but such lenses distort the image and can only provide limited resolution. A new video surveillance system currently being developed by the Department of Homeland Security’s Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) overcomes these shortfalls to provide perfectly detailed, edge-to-edge images that could prove to be of great assistance to law enforcement.

High-rise rescue system evacuates buildings using exterior collapsible cabins

There would be few scarier places to be in the event of a fire than in a high-rise building with no means of escape. Tragedies such as the World Trade Center disaster have highlighted the vulnerability of the building’s core and emergency stairwell as the only venue for evacuation. We’ve seen some last resort options that cater for those individuals brave enough to rappel or even parachute from the building, but that’s still only part of the equation. When escape routes are compromised it not only prevents evacuation, but also prevents emergency personnel reaching the trouble spots. Escape Rescue Systems’ solution is to use collapsible cabins which can be lowered over the side of the building to transport rescue personnel up… and evacuate building occupants down. Read More

Panvista Borescope Package lets you see inside an engine for just US$140

One the many hidden gems we stumbled over at Computex 2010, the Panvista Borescope Package consists of a tiny fiber optic video camera, joined via a long flexible tube to a 3.5 inch hand-held color LCD monitor. The camera head is equipped with four Infrared LEDs, allowing it to see in the dark. Besides other useful applications, the camera can be used to peek inside a car’s engine via the spark plug hole.

The Koegler AudioMouse – part mouse, part VoIP phone

You might, at first, wonder why anyone would want a combination mouse and phone. Well, if you’re working on the go from a laptop, or have limited desk space, it saves you the hassle of managing both devices separately. That, at least, is the thinking behind Koegler Electronics’ AudioMouse, recently spied by Gizmag at Computex 2010. Read More

New tech will make helmets stink when they need to be replaced

We’re told that we should replace our bike helmets every couple of years or so, because minuscule cracks can develop over time, rendering them structurally unsound. For the same reason, we’re supposed to replace a helmet that has withstood a direct impact immediately, no questions asked. The problem is… it’s so hard to get yourself to throw away what looks like a perfectly good helmet, just because it might no longer be effective. New technology developed at the Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials should eliminate this situation. When your helmet is getting past its prime, it will start to smell. If it develops any large cracks… well, you’d better plug your nose. Read More

Forty-five new radioisotopes found at Japan’s heavy-ion accelerator facility

From RIKEN Research in Japan comes news today that 45 new radioisotopes have been discovered in just four days, more than the world’s scientists typically find in an average year. Read More

DXG and Aiptek beat big boys to the punch with 3D camcorders

In case you hadn’t heard, 3D is the big news in entertainment this year with all the big players releasing 3D capable sets designed to tempt the eyeballs and loosen the purse strings. Unfortunately, there’s still a bit of a shortage of native 3D content and the opportunities to create your own are largely limited to the world of deep-pocketed professionals. That looks set to change with a couple of less well-known players, Aiptek and DXG, staking an early claim on the 3D consumer camera market. We checked out their offerings at Computex 2010. Read More

Home built Windows touchscreen tablet is quite the performer

Rather than make do with an iPad or wait for other manufacturers to create the desired “Windows 7 touchscreen tablet with a large screen that could handle HD video and wasn’t too thick or power hungry,” Justin Campana decided to try and create his own. The process involved breaking open an MSI X320 notebook, overlaying a touchscreen interface and creating custom carbon fiber casing to house the new 13.4 inch high definition LED backlit touchscreen tablet with accelerometer and SSD storage.

RECIPES

Popular Luau Recipes

TIP: Below are recipes for a full Hawaiian luau menu. Island locals practice the tradition of “pot luck” luaus. Each person or family attending the luau is responsible for making and bringing one dish. If you would like to take off some of the cost and work burdens, assign each luau attendee a dish to bring and provide them with the recipe.

Web Site User Comment: “Aloha Mike & Kim. This is Dee from Glen Burnie, MD. I recently ordered, a Silk White Ginger Shell Lei and matching head lei, for my daughter’s 16th Birthday Luau. I also told you that, I was going to try some of your recipes, for my event. We’ll everyone loved the food. Your Potato-Mac Salad definitely was a hit. I used the recipe for your, sweet potato pie for our sweet potatoes, instead of a pie. The Oven Kaula Pig was my favorite. The sweet potatoes, skewers, Huli, Huli chicken and the Korean kali ribs went so fast, that my daughter or I didn’t even get a chance to taste them. So I’ve decided, to make some more, tomorrow for us to try at home. Thanks again, for all your help and keep up the good work. Thanks for making our party a hit!!”

News/Clinton- Scandals/ Riadi-Hawaiian_Link/ greg.htmGreg states that “the number-one purveyor of broadcast news in this
country– NBC, with both MSNBC and CNBC under its wing, as well as NBC news and a variety of “news magazines”– is now owned and controlled by General Electric, one of the nation’s largest defense contractors. Is it not significant that as GE’s various media subsidiaries predictably lined up to cheerlead the use of U.S. military force in Kosovo, it was at the same time posting substantial profits from the sale of the high tech of modern

warfare it so shamelessly
glorifies?..

President Obama, Governor Lingle, Senator Inouye, Coleen Hanabusa, et. als. of the entity State of Hawaii,

I, Amelia Gora, am one of the descendants of Kamehameha, one of the heirs of Kauikeouli/Kamehameha III, Crown Land owners, and others including Mikahela Kekauonohi who was a niece, adopted daughter of my ancestors, are the documented land owners since 1848.

Royal persons are not subject to the laws. We are and remain the legal owners of these, and other lands, water, resources, etc.

Historical evidence, genealogy(ies) have been documented and are available at www.iolani.wordpress.com or see yahoogroups.com under the hawaiian genealogy society for more information posted regarding all lands owned by our Royal families who are not subject to the laws, and whose ancestors were under duress, stress, usurpation, and coercion, including Queen Liliuokalani in 1893.

James Campbell and his descendants, the Kawananakoa’s have criminally claimed lands that they do not own. Their closure of their Trust and conveyances, etc. to the James Campbell Land Company and others remain dubious claims to lands which has owners who were not treasonous to the Hawaiian Kingdom, and moved with the conspirators/pirates documented. The Kawananakoa’s including Abigail Ellerbrock, and the Lamberts, et. als. criminally claimed private properties of Royal families whose genealogies supersede their claims of being Royals, additionally, their ancestors were treasonous persons, documented in conspiracies against the Queen, her subjects and our families. It’s not O.K. for the Kawananakoa’s to ride on our families claims.

Additionally, the claims of a Fake State, the entity Provisional government, evolved into a Republic, a Territory, and a Fake State, supported by a nation -U.S., their Congress, Military, England, and the Morgan(etc.) bankers which claimed Prvate Properties and called it Public Lands are in parts lands criminally claimed by wicked, treasonous, conspirators, plotters against our families, our people, our Queen Liliuokalani discovered through 30 + years of research on our history, your history, the history abroad, our families, the hidden Royal family lines, laws, and so forth.

Maintaining our interests in our families, our Royal families private properties, along with the water rights, resources, etc. in our Hawaiian archipelago,

Sincerely,

Amelia Gora, a Royal person

U.S. has North Korea on the list to WAR with……….this is an article posted on a number of websites, IOLANI – The Royal Hawk news on the web, etc.:

A BRIEF LOOK AT MIDDLEEAST HISTORY OF OIL
– OIL : A VALUABLE RESOURCE AND A WEAPON-

By Amelia Kuulei Gora (2003)

With an ancient 8,000 year old history, the Middleeast is now a target by the United States operating INTERDEPENDENTLY with the United Nations who validates WARRING for Peace. Although an ancient civilization, with many interesting records and valuable source of studies, due to the recent PLUNDERING UPON INNOCENTS, the focus of this is to look at the OIL , the RESOURCES being looted, stolen, wrongfully obtained recently from IRAQ. The move to further terrorize and kill more innocents is slated for other areas in the Middleeast as documented in articles prepared by the Council of Foreign Relations, Inc.

With a heightened interest in oil since 1973: “Of the thirteen OPEC nations which now account for the great bulk of world trade, the big four (SAUDI ARABIA, IRAN, VENEZUELA, and IRAQ) now produce 63 percent of the total. The next four largest (KUWAIT, NIGERIA, UAR, and LIBYA) account for another 26 percent.” The balance 11 percent covered by the others.

Important Note: The CFR/Council of Foreign Relations with the U.S., Great Britain and the Bankers, etals. Planned, and formed the United Nations with the goal of ONE WORLD ORDER.

The order is Chronologically arranged:

1908 – Oil discovered in Persia by a company supported by the British government. The British Navy converted from coal powered ships to oil.

1912 – The British built the first oil-fueled battleship.

1914 – The Anglo-Persian Oil Company was purchased by the British government.

1919 – Persia refused protectorate request from the British government.

1921 – Reza Khan , army officer, was in charge of an uprising in Persia.

1925 – Reza Khan became the shah of Iran and obtained the name Reza Shah Pahlvi.

1948 – Israel became Independent.

1951 –thru 1975 The following Companies Refined Crude Oil:

Amerada Hess
Marathon Oil
Coastal States Gas
American Petrofina
Kerr-McGee
Commonwealth Oil Refining
Union Pacific (Champlin)
Murphy Oil
Koch Industries
Clark Oil and Refining
Tenneco
Crown Central
Toscopetro (The Oil Shale Corporation)
Charter
Agway
Farmland Industries
Tesoro Petroleum
Pennzoil
Apco Oil
Husky Oil
United Refining
National Cooperaive Refining Association

1953 – The American CIA/Central Intelligence Agency (President Bush Sr. was the head at one time.) and Great Britain removed Premier Mohammad Mosaddeq from Iran’s government and placed Kermit Roosevelt who used the name James Lockridge, in position. Kermit Roosevelt was Warmonger President Theodore Roosevelt’s grandson.

1968 – OPEC countries formed.

1970 – U.S. Oil and Energy Industries included the following:

-Crude Oil Production
-Crude Oil and Natural Gas Liquids Reserves
-Natural Gas Production
-Natural Gas Reserves
-Bituminous Coal Production
-Uranium (Uc0 8) Production
-Gasoline Sales
-Refining Capacity

1973 – Yom Kippur War. Egyptians and Syrians attacked Israel.

“The OPEC countries used oil to pressure the Americans and Europeans who had supported Israel to be more neutral. Soon both Egypt and Israel accepted a cease-fire based on a United Nations Security Council resolution.”

November – The U.S. ambassador “privately urged American citizens to pressure our own government to agree to Arab demands; …..publicly predicted “critical” east coast shortages of industrial fuel oil “within days,” lest anyone fail to panic. Our government covered up a cut-off of oil supplies to the U.S. Navy from European and Asian refineries, until it was revealed by a business journal.”

“ The slogan “cooperation not confrontation” sums up the consuming countries’ view of the cartel as a political problem to be solved by negotiation or force. Force is unthinkable. But negotiation or agreement with a group of sovereign monopolists is absurd. A bargain is enforced by competition or law, or both. Anyone who persistently breaks his word finds himself without customers and suppliers, who go elsewhere. Or a court can make him perform. But the monopoly has suppressed competition, so that there is no other place to go. And sovereign states are beyond any law.”

“ The demand for divestiture of the oil companies is merely one additional symptom of the inability of government and public opinion to see an economic problem for what it is.”

“The world structure of big oil is now the structure of the governments as owners and sellers of crude oil in the international market, which today includes the United States”.

The American CIA trained the SAVAK – Iranian secret police who tortured, arrested, imprisoned, executed thousands who opposed the shah.

1975 – The Following countries were producing oil:

OAPEC countries excludes BAHRAIN
SAUDI ARABIA
KUWAIT
LIBYA
IRAQ
UAE
ALGERIA
QATAR
EGYPT
SYRIA

OPEC countries includes all OAPEC countries except BAHRAIN, EGYPT, and SYRIA:

IRAN
VENEZUELA
NIGERIA
INDONESIA
GABON
ECUADOR

1976 – “VENEZUELA, LIBYA, IRAN, IRAQ and NIGERIA were carrying about five MBD(million barrels daily) of excess capacity.” ( This affected other countries.)

The following are Oil Companies affected by US Senate Bill S. 2387:

Amerada Hess Corp.
Ashland Oil, Inc.
Atlantic Richfield Co.
Cities Service co.
Continental Oil Co.
Exxon Corp.
Getty Oil Corp.
Gulf Oil Corp.
Marathon Oil Co.
Mobil Oil corp.
Pennzoil Co.
Phillips Petroleum Co.
Shell Oil co.
Standard Oil Co. of California
Standard Oil Co. (Indiana)
Standard Oil Co. (Ohio)
Sun Oil Co.
Tenneco Inc.
Texaco Inc.
Union Oil Co. of California

1979 – Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, Muslim teacher, spiritual leader became Iran’s political leader. He followed the Islamic laws: Hammurabi Code of Ethics, women wore veils, and attempted to ban music.

Khomeini labelled the United States the “GREAT SATAN”.

1980 – United Sates routinely called Israel a “strategic asset.”….at the peak of the Cold War there were some aspects of military and intelligence cooperation that gave substane to the term.”

Israel was expected to lie low while the Bush administration moved towards ‘Iraqi ties with Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Syria.’

1990 – August 2. Iraq occupied Kuwait. Assistance were by the Soviet Union, the French, China, and Saudi Arabia. Interestingly, Kuwait loaned Iraq $6 billion and the U.S. guaranteed $400 million for food which was used to purchase military weapons.

Conclusion

The U.S. viewed the OIL Nations as using “the OIL WEAPON against the West for purposes of coercion in matters of high policy.”

The power of the OIL Nations rests in the “cohesion” of the OAPEC members, acting in unison.

The United Nations appears to act as a disruption of the OAPEC Nations OIL power.

The continued desire to plunder upon SYRIA, IRAN, NORTH KOREA and others unnamed are documented in the FOREIGN AFFAIRS Volume 70, No. 1.

Information about the other countries intended/projected/anticipated to be plundered upon have already been placed on this forum.

Important Note: Hawaii’s Queen Liliuokalani in 1893 maintained that the United States BREACHED the Law of Nations. Bankrupt countries could NOT TREATY. The U.S. was bankrupt. The use of early SPIES in Hawaii, MASONS surrounding Hawaii’s Queen resulted in the dethronement, admitted by the United States in 1993 under Public Law 103-150.

IRAQ with the CIA/Central Intelligence Agency, with MASON and former President Bush as it’s’head, can be considered as the SPIES and MASONS activities against nations that are Solvent, with VALUABLE RESOURCES are the similarities that can be seen at a glance.

The United States FAILURE in FINDING WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION also shows that IRAQ has had the weapons purchased destroyed.

The United States acting INTERDEPENDENTLY with the United Nations who validate WARRING for Peace has informed IRAN, SYRIA and North Korea of its intentions last month, April 2003.

The United States through its early SPY Activity/CIA Activities and STRATEGIC affairs have succeeded in acquiring OIL, the WEAPON of OIL from One of the Middleeast countries. A Provocation appears to have been set in place (see La Rouche articles and his website – Lyndon LaRouche – for additional details)….the continued plundering upon countries named above must be opposed due to more INNOCENTS being killed over the acquisition of the RESOURCES/ WEAPON OIL.

Research incomplete.

Aloha.

p.s. THE FOLLOWING ARE DOCUMENTED COUNTRIES TO BE PLUNDERED/TERRORIZED BY THE UNITED STATES acting INTERDEPENDENTLY with the United Nations:

* ‘our plan contemplated only ejecting Iraq from Kuwait. It did not include toppling Saddam’s dictatorship.’

ref: MY AMERICAN JOURNEY by Colin Powell with Joseph E. Persico (1995) pg.491

The Weapon States include ‘IRAQ and SYRIA as regions, part of the larger Arab nation for which it reserves the term.) ‘NORTH KOREA ….is a candidate Weapon State: it has about as much legitimacy as a nation-state as the German Democratic Republic.’

‘The danger from the WEAPON State is posed today by IRAQ, tomorrow perhaps by NORTH KOREA or LIBYA….ARGENTINA, PAKISTAN, IRAN, SOUTH AFRICA…’

REFERENCE: FOREIGN AFFAIRS – The Road to War America and the World, page 31,Volume 70, No. 1

In other words the following on the list to TERRORIZE are:

1. IRAQ

2. SYRIA

3. ARAB NATION

4. NORTH KOREA

5. GERMAN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC

6. LIBYA

7. ARGENTINA

8. PAKISTAN

9. IRAN

10. SOUTH AFRICA

and not necessarily in that order! Just to verify some of the above:

‘Learn from Iraq’

Top Stories – Reuters

By Philip Pullella

ROME (Reuters) – The United States on Wednesday warned countries it has accused of pursuing weapons of mass destruction, including Iran, Syria and North Korea (news – web sites), to ‘draw the appropriate lesson from Iraq (news – web sites).’

Greetings everyone!

Letting everyone know that I’m not in England………….someone compromised my yahoo account and got a hold of my password…….the last time that our family has been to England was to ask England for assistance for our Queen……….then when he returned, he was sent to Kalaupapa – the leprosy colony.

It appears that he was the hanai brother of my great grandmother named David W. Pauahi opio. He found out that England was part of the problem …..as discovered in research…….it appears our family did try to help Queen Liliuokalani abroad…..

Please ignore the e-mail asking for assistance, because it was absolutely bogus!

For those who contacted me thru hawaiianhistory@gmail.com or thru other relatives…thank you for your concern and aloha!

sending you best wishes thru nahenahe (soft sweet) melody of songs/love songs:

Sorry Tane,

Needed to communicate with Amelia,

I too have been spammed a lot. I don’t want to bring ‘lolo’ up so I am writing on this forum. The DU information has been out there pryor to Jan 13, 2010, but it took time after we lost the case for plaintiffs to get their own message. So sad, that it was a private party and no one was invited that includes me the only plaintiff from Oahu.

This is not the conversation I wanted to have with the public. My argument is still central to the definition of DU in Hawaii as being safe, low and weak. This definition was made by judgement in a court of law and not by science. It was based on a factory that produces uranium enrichment not on science.

The health risk affects/effects is beyond my time and will have a devastating effect on our Na Kanaka DNA here in Waianae. That is where the aboriginal argument lies, not on a web site. Keep in mind we were healthy, and robust before the wars such as desert storm, Iraq, afganistan and who knows what else. We are now sick with cancer, heart and lung problems.

Big Island need to take their DU argument through the same GMO process and rally themselves outside of a private club mentality. I watched the five hour program as to how GMO was blocked by many intelligent people from different locations of Big Island. It was fantastic! UH Manoa was stupid, dumb and arrogant.

Oahu’ians saw this issue of DU from different perspectives, basically name recognition, outsider mentality, and against the war notions. No problem I support their endeavors, however, it clogged the pipeline communication, research, and public support for Jan 13, 2010. Was this done deliberatly, my answer is yes. My answer is based on 10 years of attending public meetings with the military and the general (confused) public.

The issue lies with the military trucking into Waianae contaminated DU soil from different locations of the island, both private and military bases. Specifically, areas where the military did firing practices during the war. Our where about evidence lies with the truckers that trucked in the evidence through Waianae and to Makua. The contaminated soil had a mix of U234, U235, and U238. This is the mixture that has millions of years, beyond human on earth. This is the stuff that destroys DNA, and recreate a human biological make up into a human squid.

I can’t get Social Media on the frontline. That was stolen! Besides, website is too romantic and selfserving.

MaoliWorld was the only outlet to this health risk and genocide to our Na Kanaka Waianae. The scientific community, New York Veterans, politcal front, video Poison Dust, all existed on maoliworld pryor to Jan 13, 2010. Even before I came on to MaoliWorld. But, it takes leadership beyond ones self serving nature to get to the root of the problem. I can’t break that selfserving barrier.

Big island should stop turning tricks and stick to the issue (too little too late) of DU contamination. And ask oneself where was Lorrin Pang on Jan 13, 2010? He should have been there to face the NRC again, but this time in a real court setting with the AEC and the full dressed military from the Pentagon.

Big Island can block their live fire training through their City council–just as they did with GMO. This is no time to aggregate for support from outside of Big Island as a means to run a popular campaign. We don’t need another king and queen syndrom by popular vote, we already have too many of those on Maoliworld.

I’m trying to not !@#$%^&! and stay calm as I write. Much love to all

Subject: Burning brush at Pohakaloa will remobilize DU/radiation and depopulate Hawaii

Date: Wednesday, June 24, 2009, 9:21 AM

OK here are some very good reasons why military bombing ranges should not be burned OR developed as housing sites. The US govt. sells highly contaminated old bases and bombing ranges to developers for $1. Who else would buy them? Then the developers make billions of dollars on them and often sell the homes to minorities who soon die of horrible diseases from the residual toxins. This is a major aspect of the US National Policy to depopulate (genocide) minorities in the US. Hawaii is a major target. Native Hawaiian “homelands” (housing tracts) have been built on old bombing ranges, and Native Hawaiian schools have been placed directly downwind from the most toxic and contaminated sites. This is called the “hidden American genocide”.

The homes built on the Denver Bombing Range were sold to African Americans. Prof. Adrienne Anderson, Univ of Colorado at Boulder at that time, investigated deaths in those communities living in homes built on the Denver “Lowry” bombing range site. She found a large increase in deaths in teenagers from leukemia and other cancers – before they could even graduate from high school.

If the Pohakaloa bombing range is burned, it will have the effect of depopulating the entire island of Hawaii, and neighboring islands as well as the plant and animal populations. I am convinced that the DOD is taking over the island of Hawaii for military expansion purposes and depopulation is one of the highest priorities on their agenda. The Native Hawaiians have confirmed this for me. But they will not be the only victims of any burning at Pohakaloa. Radiation respects no religion, no socio-economic class, and no borders. DU is the weapon that keeps giving and keeps killing. There is no way to clean it up and no way to turn it off. It is the Trojan Horse of nuclear war.

aloha Mike,

I have questions about the statement quoted below from your reply regarding prescribed burns, and also some thoughts on metal fumes, oxidation aerosols, and the DU tracer phenemenon. I will send this around to invite comment.
What temperature would be required to ignite a one cm. shard from a DC spotter round?
Would not a grassfire reach that temperature?
What temperature would ignite a five inch long DC spotter round?
Aren’t metal fumes vaporized uranium oxides? How could there be oxidation without oxidates, probably very fine ones, like vapor,as in nano particles? If mere heating below the temperature of full ignition is sufficient to release uranium oxides into the atmosphere, then we definitely need to include sub ignition scenarios in our hazard evaluation. Right? Pohakuloa is not a controlled environment, and all ionizing radiation is harmful….
I think there could be a problem with your analysis of the gun barrel tracer phenomenon.
I think the tracer is more than detached scrapings in the gun barrels ignited as a fine material produced by the scuffing. In the opening scene from Blowin in the Wind, I see a high velocity DU tank round (assuming this is the weapon) burning for like, a mile. I doubt that the little scrapings are going to be riding on a projectile moving at 2000 plus mph. I think the DU round is burning, a solid piece of DU. this is what the films of Fallujah suggest, too. I urge you to check out this point. I have a DVD of the battle of Fallujah if you are interested to see this phenomenon, reported also by many observers who were baffled by what kind of weapon it was.
In context, it was a poison gas weapon, illegal under the Geneva protocols signed by the US.

If you want my opinion, no, I would not set fire to land that had DU on it. Common sense precaution. I would remediate the areas as a kuleana, in fact that would be an incentive to succeed.
. Pohakuloa needs to be shut down immediately, per our moku resolution. That is the first step in this process. Do you agree, Mike?

Mahalo,
Doug

It is highly unlikely that DU will be released from munition fragments during a prescribed burn. The temperatures are not high enough for ignition.

Obama and New York Times Working to Give Solidity to Groundless Iran Nuclear Weapons Charge

By Stephen Gowans

I have no idea whether Iran has a secret nuclear weapons program, and neither does the Obama administration, but that hasn’t stopped Obama’s advisers from claiming that Iran remains determined to develop nuclear weapons. Nor has it stopped The New York Times from working with the Obama administration to create the impression that Iran has a covert nuclear arms program, despite the country’s insistence it hasn’t, and absent any compelling evidence it has.

Dual injustice: Is Canada outsourcing torture in an unjust war?

By Stephen Gowans

There are two questions about the justice of any war. Are the reasons for fighting it just? Is it fought in a just way? When it comes to Canada’s involvement in the war on Afghanistan, it looks like the country fails on both counts.

Let me defer to the end the question of whether Canada’s participation in the US-led war on Afghanistan is just, noting only at this point that an April public opinion poll by the Canadian pollster Angus Reid shows that only 39 percent of Canadians support their country’s military mission in Afghanistan. [1] Take away an enormous propaganda effort to rally Canadians to support the war and these numbers would be smaller still. The propaganda effort has included a “wear red on Friday” campaign to “support our troops”, bumper stickers warning that anyone who doesn’t stand behind the troops shouldn’t dare stand in front of them, and the first intermission of the popular Hockey Night in Canada TV broadcast being transformed into an ongoing PR campaign for the Canadian Forces’ role in Afghanistan.

We the people of Waianae will be out in force this coming Wed. May 26, 2010 at 6pm. (coming by chartered bus which starts at 4pm. at LCC Waianae) to attend the Olelo Board of Directors meeting held at Waipahu Inter. Olelo office, to address this situation. In a nutshell, Mr. Nahoopii was asked to transfer to the Mapunapuna Olelo site to help assist and make it better. Mr. Nahoopii has been doing a terrific job in Waianae with our children and our community and wanted to stay in Waianae where he lives.
>>
>> Olelo terminated him……..go figure! Well, we, the people of Waianae will no longer accept this second class citizen treatment! We are asking for his reinstatement. Oh, by the way, Olelo hired some interim DUMMIES if you will, who know absolutely nothing about running a media center. We also by the way, question the executive directors leadership with this………..perhaps she needs to step down???????????? We will assist her in her career promotion transfer.
>>
>> Trust me, you all will want to have your news people at this meeting because we need some great exciting news and especially since the Waianae community is awakening and taking a stand and being responsible for the improvement of our community and not allowing others to dictate how we will be.

Dear President Obama: StepsYou Must Take to Prevent BP Oil Disaster From Making You A One Term President
(1 comments)So far, Obama has responded to the Gulf Oil disaster as though he has a kindergartner running his PR and the oil companies running our regulatory agencies.

And I was thrilled to be at the trial of the protesters arrested at the Army Experience Center, last September, where OEN managing editor Cheryl Biren was arrested taking photos, as a member of the press. Justifiably, Biren’s charges were dropped. Yesterday, the six protesters who were arrested were found not guilty in a trial in center city Philly.
See the link below.

Covering Obama’s Ass
That’s what a lot of progressives and liberals are doing. So am I, but I’m doing it by raising my voice, telling him what he needs to do to save his ass first, in the article I’ve written above. Obama needs more criticism from the left than ever. The BP disaster is a harbinger of things to come in health care, in finance, because the reforms the Dems have legislated, with the strong pressure from the Obama administration, flat out suck and won’t protect we the people. So OpEdNews.com is going to hit hard, strong and often. We need your financial support to do it. Please click here to help and give generously.There’s no doubt we’ve lost some readers, supporters and contributors for taking a strong stand– lots of strong stands to the left of Obama and the Democrats. We need your support so we can keep doing what must be done.

thanks,

Rob kall

“The point of public relations slogans like “Support our troops” is that they don’t mean anything… That’s the whole point of good propaganda.

American Arrogance

“If those in charge of our society – politicians, corporate executives, and owners of press and television – can dominate our ideas, they will be secure in their power. They will not need soldiers patrolling the streets. We will control ourselves.”: Howard Zinn, Historian and Author

“The point of public relations slogans like “Support our troops” is that they don’t mean anything… That’s the whole point of good propaganda. You want to create a slogan that nobody’s going to be against, and everybody’s going to be for. Nobody knows what it means, because it doesn’t mean anything. Its crucial value is that it diverts your attention from a question that does mean something: Do you support our policy? That’s the one you’re not allowed to talk about.”: Noam Chomsky

American Arrogance

By Javed Hussain

18 Mile Creek (north of the Burt Dam), Olcott, New York

[]

This is a darn interesting picture and story even if you aren’t into fishing,
But please show it to anyone you know that likes to fish.

FYI: This sturgeon is still alive, just worn out from the fight.
As the sports fishermen they are, they turned him loose after the photo.

This Sturgeon was caught on the 18 Mile Creek (north of the Burt Dam), Olcott, New York two weeks ago.
It weighed out at over 1,000 lbs and measured out at 11’1″.

It was 56″ around the girth and took over 6 and a half hours, and 4 dozen beers, for the 4 guys taking turns at the reeling it in.

Any Sturgeon OVER about five feet has to be released unharmed and cannot be removed from the water.

They are brood / breeding stock and probably older than most of us.

CLAIMING YOUR ANCESTORS LANDS — ALLODIAL ISSUES…..

The following article was posted in the IOLANI – The Royal Hawk.

This message is being sent again because the EXHIBIT section was not covered.

The legal documents should contain the following in the following order:

1) Cover page (covers ancestors name, RP/Royal Patent Number, LCA/ Land Commission Award number

2) Affidavit/Certification (family genealogies)

3) Heirs and Assigns page

4) EXHIBITS (Write EXHIBITS in top right hand corner):
a. RP/Royal Patent LCA/Land Commission Award brief history (shows names of deceased owners and successors)
b. Survey Notes (obtain from the Archives, Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii) which shows the map, dimensions of the land(s). (ask the Archivist how to obtain your survey notes….. also ask how to look at the books available documenting awards from the Great Mahele/ Kamehameha III period, an extra step to take is to find out the testimonies in regards to the parcel(s)/lands belonging to your families.

5) JURAT, NOTARY page

6) Xerox two (2) or more sets. The notary usually wants to do only two (2) for a set. If more copies are needed for family members, you could make copies after the notary signs the documents, and even after the filing is completed.

7) obtain a notary signature from your Credit Union, bank — First Hawaiian Bank has a preferred customer account that you may be able to qualify for……worth it because the cost of a Notary will be nothing/free……….at the Credit Unions and some banks also give free notary signature……cousin paid about $50 a couple of weeks ago —$5 per notary signature.

8) take the two (2) sets of documents to the Bureau of Conveyances, Regular System section and pay $25 for a set which covers up to 20 pages. Any amount of pages over 20 will cost $1 per page.

News/Clinton- Scandals/ Riadi-Hawaiian_Link/ greg.htmGreg states that “the number-one purveyor of broadcast news in this
country– NBC, with both MSNBC and CNBC under its wing, as well as NBC news and a variety of “news magazines”– is now owned and controlled by General Electric, one of the nation’s largest defense contractors. Is it not significant that as GE’s various media subsidiaries predictably lined up to cheerlead the use of U.S. military force in Kosovo, it was at the same time posting substantial profits from the sale of the high tech of modern

warfare it so shamelessly
glorifies?..

ancestors
work….he is one of the heirs of Kamehameha. check out the links and sister groups….i found those fascinating and awestruck at many other researchers whose work must not go unnoticed. aloha. ps. GE / General Electric plays a significant role in the OIL concerns and the PLUNDERING UPON S in the Middleeast and elsewhere. General Electric is the “umbrella” over NBC and many other organizations.
