DECLARATION OF Majesty Akahi Nui
I, Majesty Akahi Nui, King of the Hawaiian Islands, indigenous aboriginal
inhabitants, Na Kanaka Maoli, Hawai'i nationals and Hawaiian citizens of the lawful
independent nation, am of 100% royal blue blood lineage of Liloa (k) and Akahi-a-Kuleana (w).
Documentary of Factual Evidence that tells you of what has happen to our
NATION. January 16, 1893 The Seed of Poisonous Tree of Doctrine (unlawful
overthrow committed by U.S. and the U.S. military force. (4) Executive Council S.B.
Dole, J.A King, P.C. Jones, W.O. Smith, who administered the Executive Departments
of their unlawful Government which consisted of (14) members S.B. Dannon, A Brown,
L.A. Thurston, F.F. Morgan, J. Emmeluth, H. Waterhouse, J.A. McChesney, F. Wilhelm.
W.R. Castle, W.G. Ashey, W C. Wilder, C. Bolte, was planted and it bears branches The
unlawful illegitimate Provisional Government, unlawful illegitimate Republic of
Hawai'i, unlawful illegitimate Territory of Hawai'i and now The unlawful de facto state
of Hawai'i the perpetuation from the Poisonous Fruits of the Poisonous Tree of Doctrine
criminal act). We are also seeking recognition for our nation the Kingdom of Hawai'i
from the foreign nations. The Kingdom of Hawai'i is of Na Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian)
people and has always been in existence as long as God permits our nation (race) to live.
Our sovereignty comes from God.
Whereas the indigenous Na Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian) people never directly
relinquished their claims to their inherent sovereignty as a people or over their national
lands to the United States. (U.S.P.L. 103-150 11/23/93)
Whereas the well-being of the indigenous Na Kanaka Maoli Hawaiian people is
intrinsically tied to their deep feelings and attachment to the land. (U.S.P.L 103-150).
- The indigenous Na Kanaka Maoli were the original inhabitants of the island
archipelago, Hawai'i. Na Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian people's) oral traditions are passed
on through chants, legends, myth and mo'oku'auhau or genealogies, and trace the
origins of the ancient ancestors. Na Kanaka Maoli are a part of nature and nature is a
part of them. In Na Kanaka Maoli language term which expressed this harmonious
fundamental relationship was lokahi, unity. Related terms expressing this
fundamental relationship was "aloha'aina," love the land "malama' aina" care for
and protect the land.
- Aloha'aina, love the land, aloha in Ke akua, love of God, aloha kekahi i kekahi,
love one another, expresses the three precepts which formed the core of Na Kanaka
Maoli philosophy, world view and belief system. It is important for a Na Kanaka
Maoli to sustain supportive, nurturing and harmonious relations with the land, Akua
and each other, particularly our 'ohana or extended family.
- Na Kanaka Maoli traced their lineal ancestry to historical figures and ultimately,
through them, to various deities and god of the land, ocean, forest and nature.
- The land and all nature was the source of existence for Na Kanaka Maoli not only as
the origin of humanity, but also as the source of natural resources for day-to-day

subsistence. na Kanaka Maoli related to the land as an ancestor and dear friend giving
its various moods at different times of the year; nurturing it with loving care. They
did not possess or own the land or its abundant resources. This was inconceivable.
Instead, they maintained steward ship over it planting and fishing according to the
moon phased and the changes from rainy to dry seasons. The traditional Na Kanaka
Maoli access to the resources they would need for subsistence and to allow for
steward ship over the land to the lineal descendants associated with particular
ancestral and akua.
- The recognition of the Kingdom of Hawai'i was always in existence.1 The U.S.
invasion in 1893. By virtue of its sovereign integrity as a member of the international
community, Hawai'i had exclusive jurisdiction over its nationals within its defined
territory, i.e., the Hawaiian Islands, the authority over such process by which the
United States of America and her creation, the state of Hawai'i, now asserts its
jurisdiction over the indigenous Na Kanaka Maoli, Hawaiian citizens acting within
the Hawaiian territory are several:
1- the laws of nations including treaties, and customary international laws.
2- internal laws of sovereign nations.
3- the United Nations Charter and subsequent U.N. acts to carry out the terms of the charter.
We begin from January 16, 1893, a time when there can be no debate of the legal
international status of two states - Hawai'i and the United States of America.
Both of these states were recognized in the international community as sovereign.
Among the attributes of sovereignty were the exclusive right of a state to govern and
exercise jurisdiction over its own citizens within its territories.2
Sovereignty remain in effect for states unless and until certain circumstances occur
which properly changes the relationship between such states and other states or changes
the relationship citizens and territories to existing states.
What are the those circumstances which were appropriate to have affected the
change in lawful relationship between four international bodies the Kingdom of Hawai'i,
the United States of America, Indigenous Na Kanaka Maoli, (Hawaiian citizens) and
Hawaiian territory? The continued exercise of U.S. jurisdiction over Hawai'i is unlawful.
A.Under Traditional International Law Principles
a.On January 16, 1893, the nation of Hawai'i was recognized as a sovereign
and independent nation equal in international rights as other similarly recognized nations
of the world. The Hawaiian nation had treaties and executive agreements with other
nations and peoples, including the United States of America, Belgium, Bremen,

Denmark, France, the German Empire, Great Britain, Hamburg, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan,
Netherlands. New South Wales, Portugal, Russia, Samoa, Spain, Swiss Confederation,
Sweden, Norway and Tahiti.3
b. As of January 16, 1893, the United States of America was equally
recognized as a sovereign and independent nation equal in international rights as other
states of the international community.
c. The laws of nations.which included both international customary laws and
the treaties in existence between the nation of Hawai'i and the United States of America
were binding upon these two nations regarding their conduct towards one another.4
d. The United States of America conspired to overthrow the Hawaiian nation
and committed aggression against the nation of Hawai'i in violation of international law.5
e. As a direct consequence of the U.S. misconduct, a puppet regime was
established in Hawai'i, denominated first, the Provisional Government, and later the
Republic of Hawai'i.6
f. The Provisional Government and the Republic of Hawai'i were not
governments of the people, by the people, or for the people but were primarily the
creatures of the minority Anglo-Saxons who believed in the doctrine of divine right of the
minority to govern the majority.7
g. The United States of America executed treaties of annexation with de
facto governments promoted and supported by the United States of America, i.e., first,
the Provisional government in 1893, and the Republic of Hawai'i in 18978
h. Queen Lili'uokalani wrote letters of protest to president Benjamin Harrison
and to the President-elect Grover Cleveland who was about to take office.
When President Grover Cleveland took office, he rejected the request of
the Provisional Government to annex Hawaii.
The majority of the na Kanaka Maoli petitioned United States against
annexation of their nation: The heading on HuiAloha 'Aina's petition read: PALAPALA
HOOPII KUE HOOHUI AINA "Petition Protesting Annexation" 9

i.On November 1896 William McKinley, a Republican, was
elected president of the United States, replacing the Grover Cleveland. McKinley was
inclined to annexing Hawaii. In early 1897 McKinley agreed to meet with a committee of
annexationists, L. Thurston, F. Hutch, and W. Kinney. In June 1897 McKinley signed
treaty of annexation with representatives of the Republic of Hawaii.
B.Under Internal Laws of the United States of America
a.Both treaties of annexation were never consented to by two-thirds (2/3rds)
of those presented in the United States Senates as required of all treaties in accordance
with the U.S. Constitution.10
b.The organic act presumptively extending U.S. citizenship (sec. 4) to
Hawaiian citizens and descendants of them as well as asserting jurisdiction over the
territory (sec.2) and citizens of Hawai'i was not properly grounded in that it was based
upon the previous resolution on 1898 of annexation of Hawai'i (The Newlands
Resolution, infra note).11
c.Subsequent applications of laws by the United States of America upon
citizens and activities engaged within the territorial limits of Hawai'i were based upon a
presumption of appropriate taking of jurisdiction over Hawaiian citizens and Hawaiian
territories. These applications of law are only as valid as the foundations provided by the
joint resolution of annexation of 189812 and the Organic Act of 1900. But if the
instrument of annexation is illegitimate, all subsequent acts founded on the initial act are
equally unlawful.
Fruit of poisonous Tree Doctrine bears the poisonous fruits
you shall be known by your fruits
What is happening to United States of America "in God we Trust"
and its de facto state of Hawaii.
C.Under U.N. Process of Decolonization
a.Independent of the historical international relationship between the nation
of Hawai'i and the United States of America by virtue of the U.S. membership in the
United Nation specifically, under Article 73 of the U.N. Charter, the U.N. Charter
obligated the United States of America and other metropolitan states found in similar
circumstances, as a matter of sacred trust, to bring about self-government of people
within territories.

b.The United States of America has continued assertion of jurisdiction over
Hawai'i territory and its citizens.13 Unknown to most of the people in Hawai'i, in 1946
under the charter of the United Nations at Article 73, the United States was charged with
bringing self-government to Hawai'i.14
c.The Hawai'i "statehood" vote, the U.S., reported to the U.N. that it "had
met its responsibility" under Article 73. Believing this to be true, the U.N. General
Assembly by Resolution 1469 (XIV) in 1959 relieved the United States of America of
further responsibility to report to the U.N. on Hawai'i.
The U.N. General Assembly subsequently adopted its Declarauon on the
Granting of independence to colonial Countries and People, (GA Res. 1514 (XV) 14 of
December 1960) and formed the Special committee On The Situation with regard to the
Implementation of the Declaration on the Granting on Independence to Colonial
Countries and People. That declaration and the activities of the special committee reflect
that the actions taken by the United States in Hawai'i did not meet the standard of self-governance
required under Article 73. The exercise of self-determination in Hawai'i has
not been accomplished. The plebiscite taken in 1959 failed to meet the requirements of the
exercise of self-determination for at least two reasons; the U.S. government altered
the "self" in defining who qualified to participate in the process, and limited the choices
which the people should have had only to a form of integration within the United States
of America (territorial status or statehood), not to independence.15
CHRONOLOGICAL FACTS OF STATEHOOD
On August 21, 1959, Hawaii illegitimately became a fiftieth state when U.S.
President Dwight Eisenhower declared that "the procedural requirements imposed by the
Congress on the State of Hawaii to entitle that state to admission into the Union have
been complied with in all respects."
While the colonial establishment has subsequently annually celebrated August 21
as a State holiday, only since about 1990, have we Kanaka Maoli begun to learn that the
1959 Statehood process was a fraud.
In 1946, at the time of the founding of the United Nations (UN), Hawaii was
placed on the UN List of Non-Self-Governing Territories (colonies) eligible for
decoloniztion as a consequence of the U.S.'s forced annexation of Hawaii in 1898.

According to the UN Charter, Chapter XI, Article 73, the U.S., as the
administering (colonizing) power in Hawaii, had a sacred trust... to ensure, with due
respect for the culture of the people concerned, their political, economic, social and
educational advancement... and to assist them in the progressive development of their
free political institutions." The U.S. intentionally failed to fulfill this "sacred trust"
responsibility to the colonized Kanaka Maoli people.
Instead, aware that the UN was under pressure to refine a decolonization process
that was to become General Assembly Resolution (UNGAR) 1514 in 1960, the U.S.
moved to ensure that Hawaii (and Alaska) would be incorporated as states of the Union
before 1960.
March 12, 1959, the U.S. Congress passed the Hawaii Statehood Admission Act
(PL.86-3), before a vote on the issue by the colonized Kanaka Maoli people, in violation
of the Kanaka Maoli right to self-determination.
Later, on June 27, 1959, a Statehood Plebiscite in Hawaii posed only one option
on the ballot: immediate statehood. The colonial establishment trumpeted statehood as
"equal opportunity and autonomy." The only other (unstated) option was for Hawaii to
remain as a territory. No reference was made to two other options-independence or free
association-as provided by UNGAR 742 of 1953.
All U.S. citizens in Hawaii, including U.S. military personal, were permitted to
vote, instead of only the colonized Kanaka Maoli people who were the only island
residents eligible for the exercise of self-determination and who comprised only 16
percent of the resident population. The vote outcome was as predicted with a large
majority in favor of immediate statehood.
On September 17, 1959, unknown to the general public, the U.S. misinformed the
UN the "Alaska and Hawaii had attained full measure of self-government as admitted
states. "
On December 12, 1959, without public announcement, the misinformed UN
General Assembly approved Resolution 1469 nothing that
the people of Alaska and Hawaii have effectively exercised their right to self-determination
and clarified some specific features, conditions and outcomes of the UN decolonization process:
The subjection of peoples to alien subjugation, domination and exploitation
constitutes a denial of fundamental human rights, is contrary to the Charter of the UN
and is an impediment to the promotion of world peace and cooperation.
All peoples have the right to self-determination; by virtue of that right they freely
determine their political status and freely pursue their economic, social and cultural
development.
Inadequacy of political, economic, social and educational preparedness should
never serve as a pretext for delaying independence.
All armed action or repressive measures of all kinds directed against dependent
peoples shall cease in order to enable them to exercise peacefully and freely their right to
complete independence and the integrity of their national territory shall be respected.
Immediate steps shall be taken, in Trust and Non-Governing Territories or all
other territories which have not yet attained independence, without any conditions or
reservations, in accordance with their freely expressed will and desire, without any
11

distinction as to race, creed or color, in order to enable them to enjoy complete
independence and freedom.
Any attempt aimed at the partial or total disruption of the national unity and the
territorial integrity of a country is incompatible with the purposes and principles of the
Charter of the United Nation.
The colonized Kanaka Maoli in particular have never been publicly informed of the
foregoing historical events.
This history does not appear in textbooks and is not taught as part of the core curriculum
in the island colonial schools.
C.STATEMENT OF CASE:
a.The U.S. is obligated to conduct itself in international affairs in
accordance with international law.
The U.S. Constitution has incorporated treaties of the United States of America
with other states as "the Supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges of every State shall be
bound thereby16." The U.S. Constitution explicitly recognized the validity of
international law when if conferred to Congress the right to define and duty to punish
offenses against the law of nations.17 The United States Supreme Court has already
stated that it must take judicia1 notice of international customary law.18
"The United States has concluded that it has a trust obligation to indigenous
Hawaiians because it bears a responsibility for the destruction of their government and
the unconsented and uncompensated taking of their lands. U.S. Solicitor General Seth Waxman
to the U.S. Supreme Court"19
While internation law may differ from municipal, internal or domistic laws in
that internal laws have a system of enforcement while the enforcement of international
law is uncertain at best, the fact that a law is enforceable doesn't make it law. Rather, the
fact that it is law demands its Obedience, whether enforceable by arms or by moral
conscience.20 Grover Cleveland, in addressing the joint houses of the U.S. Congress,
declared that:
The considerations that international law is without a court for its enforcement,
and that obedience to its commands practically depends upon good faith, instead of
upon the mandate of a superior tribunal, only give additional sanction to the law itself
and brand any deliberate infraction of it not merely as a wrong but as a disgrace.

The U.S. Constitution itself requires courts to view treaties as part of the
Supreme Law of the Land21 Furthermore, it is a fundamental doctrine of
International Law that a state may not excuse itself for violations of international
law on the basis that its municipal constitution or laws permitted violations of such
international laws.22
Thus, every court in the United States is obligated to look beyond the mere
legislative pronouncements of the Congress and hold up these transactions of the U.S.
government with regards to Hawai'i against the backdrop of international law and the
Constitution of the United States.23
B.The transactions engaged in by the U.S. in its dealings with Hawai'i in
accordance with international law in its pattern of conduct attempting to annex Hawai'i
to the U.S.
The United States had formally recognized Hawai'i as an international
personality, recognizing the Nation of Hawai'i as a sovereign" independent nation
state. The treaty of Friendship, Commerce, Navigation and Extradition (hereafter
FCN&E) proclaimed November 9, 1850, declared, "There shall be perpetual peace and
amity between the United States and the King of the Hawaiian Islands, his heirs and his
successors.24 The U.S. was to violate this treaty time and again.
By 1873, U.S. Minister to Hawai'i Henry Pierce, bent on annexation, informed
U.S. Secretary of State Fish that annexation would be achieved only if "...the planters,
merchants and foreigners... will induce the people to overthrow the Hawaiian
Government, establish a republic, and then ask the United States for admittance into its
Union"25 The U.S. government was not limited to merely writing letters between high
officials. On January 15, 1873, Major General and commander of the United States Army
Military Division of the Pacific, John Schofield, (formerly Secretary of War) and
Brigadier General B.S. Alexander of the Corps of Engineers, arrived in Hawai'i
pretending to be on a vacation. Instead, they were spies to report about "the defense
capabilities of [Hawai'i] different ports and their commerce facilities, and to examine any
other subjects that may occur to you as desirable, in order to collect all information that
would be of service to the Country in the event of war with a powerful maritime nation.
They submitted a secret report on the great value of Pearl Harbor as a port to provide a

safe harbor to protect several hundreds ships. This report was kept secret until 1897 when it was declassified to
support annexation in Congresss.26
By 1882, the U.S. President administration was engaged in encouraging the
destabilization of the Hawaiian government through discussion with Lorrin Thurston. The
Arthur administration assured Thurston that the U.S. government would look with great
favor to an annexation treaty should there be a revolt and overthrow of the Hawaiian
monarchy and a new government formed.
The U.S. government subsequently sent to Hawai'i annexationist John L. Stevens,
as its Minister Plenipotentiary. Stevens was well known as an annexationist. As editor of
the Kennebec Journal for time, in partnership with U.S. Secretary of State Blaine, he and
Mr. Blaine wrote numerous articles for the annexation of Hawai'i.27 On March 8, 1892,
he requests instructions from Blaine on how far he may deviate from established
international rules and precedents in order to advance the goal of destabilization and
annexation of Hawai'i.28
By 1892, U.S. Harrison administration, itself, as on the same course as the Arthur
administration 10 years earlier, encouraging Thurston toward the destabilization of
Hawai'i29 On the 17th of January, 1893, through the connivance of the U.S. Minister
plenipotentiary, with Thurston, the Hawaiian monarch was forced to yield her authority to
the US. government by the aggression of the U.S. military upon Hawaiian soil.30
Everyone of these acts was in violation of international law, both as a matter of
customary international law31 as well as the FCN&E treaty. They were also in
contradiction to the much earlier declaration of the U.S. President to the Congress on
December 31, 1842, recognizing Hawai'i independence and pledging never to take
possession of Hawai'i.32
In Article 6(a) of the Nuremberg Charter, we find Crimes Against Peace; namely,
planning, preparation, initiation or waging of a war of aggression, or a war in
violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances, or participation in a
common plan or conspiracy for the accomplishment of any of the foregoing.33

15th Page of 27 - Iolani Palace Deed
The United Nations General Assembly at its first session in 1946 recognized the
principles set out in the Nuremberg Charter.34
The United States committed crimes against peace under the law of nations by
planning and implementing the use of force to overthrow the Hawaiian monarch without
any provocation by her official representatives. United States President Cleveland in
addressing the joint houses of Congress on December 18, 1893, stated it accurately when
he said, "candid and thorough examination of the facts will force the conviction that the
Provisional Government owes its existence to an armed invasion by the United States."
The United States Congress, in its apology bill signed by President Clinton on November
23, 1993, was equally explicit when it stated:
"On January 14, 1893 John L. Stevens...the U.S. minister...conspired with a small
group of non-Hawaiian residents of the Kingdom of Hawai'i, including citizens of the
United States, to overthrow the indigenous and lawful government..."35 The U.S.
Congress concede that the government of the Kingdom of Hawai'i was the lawful
government at that time, and that an official agent of the United States government
conspired to overthrow the government of Hawai'i. The United States government is
bound by the actions of its agents, of its ministers.36 If The President was bound by the
actions of the minister. The United States government conspired to overthrow the lawful
government of the Kingdom of Hawai'i, which was an internationally illegal act at the
time it was done, and is currently acknowledged by President Clinton and congress.
The next paragraph continues, "pursuant to the conspiracy... naval representatives
called armed forces to invade the sovereign Hawaiian nation on January 16, 1893, and to
position themselves near the Hawaiian government buildings and the (Iolani) Palace to
intimidate the Queen Liliu'okalani and her government."37 Congress significantly calls an
invasion an invasion. That is what it was, a clearly illegal act, an invasion in violation of
treaties and international agreements, an invasion in violation of international law, and
___________________________________

an invasion in violation of the United States Constitution the overthrow of a lawful
government.
Under the international law when you have a violation of treaties of this
magnitude, the World Court has ruled that the only appropriate remedy is restitution.38
The Kingdom of Hawai'i, that is our independent nation state. This is the appropriate
remedy.
The Public Law goes on from here, reciting the sorry history of what happened,
the establishment of the provisional government.39 Well, that is not entitled to any
legitimacy at all. It was imposed by raw, naked, and brutal military force, at the point of a
bayonet, (gunboat diplomacy), just as was practiced in many other countries, only here
now Congress has finally admitted this.
The next paragraph points out that the establishment of this provisional
government was without the consent of the Native Hawaiian people or the lawful
government of Hawai'i, and violated all of the international treaties and agreemcnts.40 So
under international law, you would not call this provisional government. You would call it
a government of military occupation. That is, we had military forces here and then we had
a civilian arm of the military occupying regime.
The occupied Palestinian lands where the Israeli occupying forces have set up a
civilian arm if their military occupation authorities to administer the civil affairs of the
Palestinian people."41 The negotiations centered around the withdrawal of the civilian
military occupation arm, and the withdrawal of the military occupation forces
themselves.42 The September 13, 1993 agreement calls for the dissolution of the civilian
occupation arm and then the withdrawal of the military occupation forces themselves.43

Therefore, this "provisional government" referred to in the Public Law is really
the civilian arm of a military occupation force. That was the predecessor to the current
government of Hawai'i that administers to us. Again, following the implications of that
law, the state government of Hawai'i occupies a similar position to that provisional
government. The federal military forces here keeping it in power.
We then come to the statement by our precious so loved Queen Liliu'okalani,
"that I yield to the superior force of the United States of America,"44 She made it very
clear that this statement and her later abdication were procured under duress and force It
could not be treated by anyone as a valid surrender of sovereignty by the Native Hawaiian
people at all and she made that very clear in this language. She was simply bowing to
superior power, but NOT as a matter of right or of law.45
In a parallel case. communicating with the World Court, the Owen-Stoltenberg
plan46 to partition the republic. of Bosnia and Herzegovina, was concluded, by means of
threats and duress, compulsion and coercion. It was therefore invalid, under international
law and the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties."47 Our Queen Liliu'okalani a very
powerful person, and preserving the rights of her people under duress, she committed an
act now seen as "under extreme duress".
The law goes on, with Congress admitting that [w]ithout the active support and
intervention by the United States... the insurrection...would have failed for lack of
popular support and insufficient arms.48 And in 1893 "the minister raised the flag and
declared Hawai'i to be a protectorate of the United States."49 They did not protect
anything, did they? Was there a need to protect Hawai'i from itself, from its own people?
Who was threatening Hawai'i at that time? It was the United States. They needed protection from
the United States, so this is absurd. Hence, The occupation was entitled to no legal
validity at all at the time and is not now. That is basically what Congress is saying.
The Blount Report states that "military representatives had abused their authority
and were responsible for the change in government."50 Again, this is further admission
that the United States acted illegally under international law. The implication then of

these admissions by Congress, by the Blount Committee, is that there must be
restitution.51 Na Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian) people, Na po'e O Hawai'i have a right to be
returned to the situation they were in, as of January 17, 1893. The federal government
disciplined the minister and forced him to resign his commission. The overthrow should be
reversed. The President could have done it if he wanted to; he just did not do it.
President Cleveland's message to congress admitted all this. "An act of war,
committed with the participation of a diplomatic representative of the United States and
without authority of Congress."52 The President clearly admitted that this was illegal
behavior of the most heinous type. A "substantial wrong" was done, calling for the
restoration of the Hawaiian monarchy.53 The United Nations Charter.54
The Newlands Joint Resolution55 provided for the annexation of Hawai'i in 1893.
Where is the authority for this? There is none. They stole the land, the country, displaced
the government, and now they have annexed it. This very issue was addressed by the
Nuremberg Tribunal in 1945, where German Nazi government tried to maintain that some
of the annexations of foreign territory that it had undertaken before and during the Second
World War were entitled to legal recognition. The Nuremberg Tribunal itself in 1945 said,
"no annexations are valid prior to the conclusion of a peace treaty.56
The United States government and the President conceded that they engaged in
acts of war, that they are occupying our land and that they put themselves at war with our
people.57 The United States annexation has no validity under international law. The US.
have effectively, in this law, invalidated the entire annexation. The whole legal basis for it
now been invalidated.
The annexation of the land is invalid, then where does the title come from, who
has title to the land? It is Na Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian) people who retain title to the lands
of Hawai'i, as a matter of international law. It is not the federal government, not the state
government, but Na Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian) people themselves. That is the implication
here. The truth of the findings of facts and conclusions of law are now officially set forth
by Congress.

"[T]he Newlands Resolution, the...Republic of Hawai'i ceded sovereignty over
the Hawaiian Islands to the United States."58 But the Republic of Hawai'i59 never had
sovereignty over the Hawaiian Islands. We have already determined the Republic of
Hawai'i was the civilian occupying arm of a military occupation forces. Sovereignty
remains in the hands of the displaced sovereign. This is black letter international law.60
"The Republic of Hawai'i ceded 1,800,000 acres of crown, government, and public
lands of the Kingdom of Hawai'i, without the consent of or compensation to Na Kanaka
Maoli (Hawaiian) people, or sovereign government.61 The Republic had no authority to
do this. The Republic of Hawai'i was a military occupation authority, the civilian arm,
without any sovereign claims to the land under the laws of military occupation and the
laws of war. So they had no power to cede anything. The title to the land rested and still
rests, under international law, with the Kingdom of Hawai'i Na Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian) people.
Our Kanaka Maoli Hawai'i, Hawaiian people of the Kingdom of Hawai'i cannot
"trespass" on our own land. The trespassers are the state of Hawai'i, the land developers,
the golf courses, and the resorts. What this fact does is point out that the whole situation
is completely turned around on its head. It now changes the whole way that these US
and state authorities should be looking into this matter. The federal government is the
trespasser and the criminal. The Kingdom of Hawai'i is Na Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian)
people asserting our rights under international law. This reversal of positions between
who is the criminal and who are the VICTIMS, and between who is asserting their
RlGHTS and who is violating our rights has been effectively conceded by Congress.
Universal Declaration of Human Rights.62
Article 25 of Declaration provides that "everyone has the right to a standard of living
adequate for health, well-being of themselves and their family, including food, clothing,
housing, medical care and necessary social services."63 In 1994 a survey was done in the
state. Na Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian) people were ranked #1 as highest in poverty, ill
health, homelessness, and imprisonment. The state of Hawai'i has no right to throw
anyone of our Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian) people out. Where is the governments right?
Article 18 of the Declaration provides that "everyone has the right to freedom of thought,
conscience, and religion. This includes freedom to manifest his religion or belief in
teaching, practice, worship, and observance."64 The state of Hawai'i, real estate
developers, or resort developers, has no right to destroy any of what our ancestors have
created as Heiau to worship on our lands or burial sites to respect. Under Article 18.

"Whereas, the Congress...annexed Hawai'i...and vested title to the lands in
Hawai'i in the United States.65 This is clearly illegal. The annexation was invalid. The
United States cannot get title from the Republic of Hawai'i because the Republic of
Hawai'i never had title in the first place. They had no sovereignty. They were nothing more than a
military occupation power, and a military occupation power cannot validly transfer title to
land. Again, black letter intemational law.66 The occupying power cannot sell land legally.
You cannot transfer land title. It does not make it lawful, but invalid. It's illegal
Occupying power cannot sell land legally. All transactions that were done, are all invalid.
It is illegal. It's all arguably, they are obliged to leave, and not to stay.
The law goes on to state; "Where, the Newlands Resolution effected the
transaction between the Republic of Hawai'i and the United States government.67 The
Newlands Resolution is entitled to no validity at all, since it is based on an illegal invasion,
a violation of treaties, and a violation of the principle of pacta sunt servanda.68 Many
numerous and repeated violations of law have accrued as a result of this.
Congress admits that "the indigenous Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian) people never
directly relinquished their claims to ... inherent sovereignty... through a plebiscite or a
referendum69 The U.N. General Assembly subsequently adopted its Declaration on the
Gantion of Independence to Colonial Countries and peoples, (GA Res 1514 (XV) of 14
December 1960) and formed the Special Committee On The Situation with regard to
the Implementation of the Declaration on the Granting of Independence of Colonial
Countries and Peoples. That declaration and the activities of the special committee
reflect that the actions taken by the United States in Hawai'i did meet the standard of self-governance
contemplated under Article 73. The exercise of self-determination in Hawaii
[Hawai'i] has not been accomplished. The plebiscite taken in 1959 failed to meet the
requirements of the exercise of self-determination for at least two reasons; the U.S.
government altered the "self" in defining who qualified to participate in the process, and
limited the choices which the people should have had only to a form of integration within
the United States of America (territorial status or statehood), not to independence.70 The
vote is meaningless, as a matter of international law and of United States domestic law
Pursuant to the principle of self-determination in article 1, Paragraph 2 of the United
Nations Charter."71
The Public Law more admissions "Whereas, the long-range economic and social
changes in Hawai'i over the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries have been

devastating to the population and to the health and well-being of the Hawaiian people."72 A survey
done in Hawai'i in 1994 the Hawaiian people rank number 1 in poverty, ill health,
homelessness, and imprisonment. The Hawaiian people have been subjected to the
international crime of Genocide, as determined and defined by the 1948 Genocide
Convention.73 and the 1987 Genocide Convention Implementation Act,74 the Proxmire
Resolution. That was one of the findings of the San Francisco Tribunal The key findings
held here concerning Hawai'i Ka Ho'okolokolonui Kanaka Maoli.
In the International Court of Justice, they have been convinced that Genocide is
going on in Bosnia-Herzegovina.75 There is no reasonable doubt my next step is the
World Court. GENOCIDE has being practiced by the United States government against
Na Kanaka Maoli Hawaiian People. This will take my people, Na Kanaka Maoli back to
the creation of a nation and will bring protection for Na Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian) people
and the Hawaiian Citizens of Hawai'i. I, Majesty Akahi Nui, King of the Hawaiian Islands
will not at all even consider what Secretary Babbitt is considering as the same status as
Native Americans. My people are' not even as close to the same status of a Native
American. My people are Na Kanaka Maoli Hawai'i and the people not of the race are
Hawaiian citizens.
"It is proper and timely for Congress to acknowledge the historic significance of
the illegal overthrow."76 It had no validity at all.
The Resolution then addresses support for the reconciliation efforts.77 Under
international law for a violation of this nature, the remedy is restitution78 To set right the
harm that has been done to restore the situation to what it had been before the violation in
1893 See the Chorzow Factory case79
Section 1, acknowledgment and apology80 The law again repeats, "illegal
overthrow. " the significance of the various "whereas" clauses were "resolved by the
Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress and

Senate, and signed by the President81 This provision of the law recognizes the illegal
overthrow and "acknowledges the historical significance of this event which was
ultimately the suppression of the inherent sovereignty.82
Paragraph 2 apologizes for the overthrow "with the participation of agents of the United
States83 The U. S. government again is responsible for the actions of its ministers,
Congress now calls these people "agents" Their illegal conduct, binds the United States
government. The United States government is under an obligation to undo the harm that
was done. But even if the United States does not, I, Majesty Akahi Nui and my Na
Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian people) have our right to act to undo the curse of injustice in
the World Court It is presently active in the World Court. The rest of the sentence reads,
"the deprivation of the rights of Native Hawaiians to self-determination.84
Congress has conceded that the Native Hawaiian peoples have the right to
self-determination. Self-determination of the people is under the U.N. Charter provides a
rights to full sovereignty.85
Paragraph 4 expresses its commitment to acknowledge the ramifications.86
The ramifications, and the implications, of the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawai'i
The definition section, Congress defines Native Hawaiians as "any individual who
is a descendant of the aboriginal people, prior to, 1778...occupied and exercised
sovereignty, in the area that now constitutes the state of Hawai'i87 Our right to determine
our political status, our government, through customary systems, and to freely pursue our
economic, social, and cultural development in accordance with article 1 of both the
International Covenant on Civil Political, 'Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights88 This
affirms that the Kingdom of'Hawai'i is still in existence. The descendants of the aboriginal
people still lives which affirms the existence of the Kingdom of Hawai'i The sovereign
authority of these lands.
I, Majesty Akahi Nui has been recognized by the illegitimate government that I am
a descendant of 1778 on 12th of March 1998.
It is not the state or the federal government, but the Hawaiian people. The sovereignty is
still and will always remain in the hands of my people Kanaka Maoli Hawai'i. The territory
is the state. The Hawaiian Archipelago, the lands before the invasion of 1893. We claim a
twelve mile territorial sea and a 200 mile exclusive economic zone, in accordance with
customary international law and the Law of the Sea Treaty of 198289
