Aloha All-
I have also included a letter from Mr. Lee
to government officials that exhibits the "NEW
and IMPROVED EIS" process codified by the
OEQC /its Environmental Council and signed
by the Governor recently is a disgusting piece of
work that afflicts harm to the pueo and bats in
particular.
The members of the Environmental Council, ensured
the EIS inventory process did NOT include any NEW
protocols to detect pueo and bats - all input by
Mr. Lee to save the bats and pueo sent to the members
of the Environmental Council- was declined by
the Environmental Council- and rejected.
And every member of the Environmental Council approved of this
disturbing protocol and refused to have the rules change so bats and
pueo are properly accounted for on property slated for development.
Know your enemy.

Aloha Mr. Donald Amano
Staff Attorney
Office of Information Practices
Please see three page attachment to
substantiate the material requested by
Mr. Michael Kumukauoha Lee - to be
my complaint enjoined and the resolve
sought for DLNR to release the data
as requested.
The public has a right to this data.
If provided, I would disseminate
the information to Mr. Lee's associates
that were monitoring this matter.
I have also included a letter from Mr. Lee
to government officials that exhibits the "NEW
and IMPROVED EIS" process codified by the
OEQC and signed by the Governor recently is
dangerous to Hawaiian people who have relations
with their Aumakua- and the new EIS rules
offensive to any environmentalist who cares
for the preservation of wildlife- and furthermore,
the new rules to inventory property for endangered
species a breach of justice to any person who
cherishes the rule of law.
What Governor Ige and the members of the Environmental
Council did to protect endangered Aumakua is a disgusting
piece of work that afflicts harm to the pueo in particular.
Ms. Donna Wong, and Ms. Paulette Kalekini - members of the
Environmental Council that pushed for the extirpation and removal
of pueo from State owned undeveloped lands, should be ashamed
of themselves for selling out the pueo and other Aumakua as they did.

FW: Sovereignty Work at the U.N.

Aloha,
I’m sure many of you have been getting these updates for some time. This one is a particularly clear introduction to Leon’s activities at the U.N., so I thought I would pass it along in case someone is not on his list. If you don’t get them and would get added, let me know.
Below Leon’s update I am reprinting our article recently printed in the Star-Advertiser which lists the illegalities surrounding statehood that are named in the “Call for Review” (mentioned in purple below) which Leon is circulating at the U.N.
Please pass this on.

At the UN
Aloha! I’m at the UN in Geneva again. The end of next week I go to the UN in New York.
Basically, our main objectives at the United Nations are: 1. to expose the wrong the US is committing in the Hawaiian Islands, 2. to share aloha and make friends with as many as possible, 3. to get our friends ready to mobilize their kokua when the time comes.
In Geneva… I usually attend the sessions of human rights bodies such as the Human Rights Council, the Human Rights Committee, the Committee for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, etc. to take advantage of the opportunity to meet and speak with all those that attend those meetings: country representatives, UN staff members, international lawyers, scholars and activists… to share our story and learn theirs… to build friendly relations and caring about each other’s situations, struggles and aspirations.
In Geneva… I deliver remarks (interventions) at the formal meetings to present a Hawaiian perspective on whatever topic is being discussed; pointing out the remedy lies in regaining control of decision-making on critical issues. At the Human Rights Council I speak regularly on panels hosted by groups from around the world, on many aspects of human rights. During a two week period, I will speak on anywhere from 3-6 of these panel events. Last year at one of the Human Rights Council sessions I spoke on five events, four of them alongside Dr. deZayas, who ended up speaking on a record seven panels that session
In New York… group access is less available so it takes a lot of separate meetings to reach more people. I am able to sit in and observe the sessions, but not allowed to participate. However, New York is where the key mechanisms that can more directly impact us are located. We are preparing to have a resolution to review the procedures that led to “statehood” submitted to the UN General Assembly very soon. That review, innocuous as it may seem, will begin to unravel the web of lies that the US has spun to obfuscate their criminal actions against our country and our people. Exposure of the fraud will obligate the UN and every one of its member states to ensure a just remedy for the error they made… In other words, they have to fix the wrong.
In New York… we are also working with a broad coalition to light a fire under a vital UN mechanism that had been allowed to atrophy, leaving many peoples and nations stranded and abandoned in their quest to liberate their countries. Along with campaigning for our cause, we have been quietly building support for an action that will trigger relief for others as well.
Again, sorry for being cryptic for now. Soon we’ll be able to say more…
NOTE: The next two months is critical to getting the review initiated at the UN. Your kokua is needed to move us forward! Imua!
Kūʻe! Kū Kiaʻi Mauna! Kapu Aloha!
Ua mau ke ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono. The sovereignty of the land is perpetuated in righteousness.

We cannot do this crucial work without your help… your kokua.
We deeply appreciate all financial contributions, large or small.
Your contribution will greatly help us to carry on this work.
Your KŌKUA is greatly appreciated!
Mahalo Nui Loa!

Statehood questioned at Hawaii’s 60th
by Kioni Dudley, Leon Siu, and Poka Laenui
August 16, 2019, marks the 60th Anniversary of Statehood for Hawai’i. It will go little noticed. This article offers new information on illegalities and fraudulence regarding the statehood vote, and why it should not have been accepted by the United Nations.
In 1945, the United States, as a founding member of the United Nations, accepted all U.N. Charter obligations. As a nation with Territories, under Article 73 of the Charter, it took on, “as a sacred trust, the obligation to. . . develop self-government” for the descendants of the nations it had occupied. The U.S. did this for some territories. But in Hawaii, it did just the opposite. Our people achieving “the full measure of self-governance” was never mentioned. The statehood vote offered only movement from a U.S. Territory to a U.S. state. Total absorption rather than required liberation.
The ballot wording was bogus. U.N. Resolution 742 (VIII), adopted in 1953, required that plebiscites offer “freedom of choosing between several possibilities, including independence.” The wording of the statehood ballot question was: “Shall Hawaii immediately be admitted into the Union as a State?” The only possible answers were “Yes” and “No.” No option for independence was provided. The vote did not comply with the Charter or Resolution 742.
The UN Charter expects only the citizens of the occupied nation—in our case the descendants of Hawaiian Kingdom subjects--will make decisions regarding their self-governance. During the 61 years that Hawaii was a Territory, however, there was a huge in-migration of American settlers, as well as transient U.S. military personnel and their dependents. The 1900 census shows 2,900 Caucasians living in the islands. In 1959, it had ballooned to 202,230. Any American citizen 20 years or older who had lived in Hawaii for at least a year was allowed to vote, even U.S. military. And they did. Thus, the wrong people voted.
During the Territory era, the United States made tremendous efforts to inculcate belief in a virtuous America. During those six decades, schools assiduously avoided any mention of the U.S. invasion, overthrow, and takeover of the Hawaiian Kingdom…or the skirting of the Constitution to achieve Annexation. A valid referendum requires that voters give informed consent. But decades of US hiding the facts made informed consent impossible. Had statehood voters known the truth. . . .
The official report states that 94% of voters supported statehood, but the facts are quite different. The 94% only counts the Yes and No votes cast. When blank ballots are included, only 77% of those who voted actually voted for statehood. But even more shocking is the fact that, in the most important election ever held in Hawai’i, only 35% of those of eligible age actually registered and turned up at the polls. Sixty-five percent “voted with their feet” against statehood by staying home. When the blank votes and “votes with their feet” are factored in, only 27% of eligible voters cast a ‘Yes’ vote at the polls, far below the 50% required to win.
America knew that the UN would soon pass its “Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonized Countries and Peoples.” Great pressure would mount to liberate Hawai’i. The statehood vote was a sham to quickly secure United Nations approval for US permanent retention of Hawaii--just twelve months and two days before the Declaration was passed.
We three authors recently wrote “A Call for Review of the Historical Facts Surrounding UNGA Resolution 1469 (xiv) of 1959 Which Recognized Attainment of Self-Government for Hawaii.” It amplifies the facts above and is currently being disseminated at the United Nations and to the public. Please read it and add your name in endorsement at www.
It’s time to show support.
