		<description>The fact remains that the United States participated in allowing the overthrow of the Hawaiian government to occur and never set things right.  Queen Liliuokalani had faith in the American government that they would return control to her. She insisted on patience and non-violence, but the US turned their back and allowed Hawai&#039;i to loose what was rightfully theirs.  Hawai&#039;i never relinquished their sovereignty...and is still occupied unlawfully by the United States.  Doing so is by international law and act of War. Most Americans do not even know that Hawai&#039;i was once a Monarchy and is still a sovereign nation.  The press barely covers any news of protest from Sovereignty groups or those opposed to the Akaka bill.  The Akaka bill is misleading and will in fact destroy any chance Hawai&#039;i has of removing the US from it&#039;s Islands and reestablishing a Sovereign government.  Lets look at US history..the US murdered millions of native peoples and have given them what in return? Native American Indians have not benefited much from their compensation.  Hawaiians do not need compensation, they need the US to give back what was illegally taken from them, their lands.  Groups such as OHA (office of Hawaiian Affairs) use programs such as Kau Inoa to trick the people of Hawai&#039;i into &quot;registering&quot; and signing their names in support of the Akaka bill, although the name &quot;Akaka bill&quot; is never mentioned when they give out their stickers and T-shirts outside grocery stores and at events.  OHA is misleading Hawai&#039;i&#039;s people into thinking that they are actually registering to support a Native Hawaiian Government, but are they? No.  Hawai&#039;i is still a sovereign Nation, and recognized so by Countries other than the US. So, why is the US still deciding what should be done with Hawai&#039;i&#039;s future? Hawai&#039;i is an important, yet expendable resource for America.  That is why unknown to many Americans and residents of Hawai&#039;i, the Islands are used for experimental GMO crops and heavily occupied by the US Military for training and control of an important strategic location for the US in the pacific ocean.  If anything went wrong, the Islands are isolated from the rest of the US, surrounded by the Pacific ocean.  Of course Hawai&#039;i&#039;s Republican Governor supports the Akaka bill, there is much profit for the US in keeping control over Hawai&#039;i.  Governor Lingle cuts funding for Healthcare, Education, Arts, but supports a tourist based economy, outside big business investors and GMO crops that are not even fit for Human consumption and can devastate Hawai&#039;i&#039;s fragile and unique environment.  I am not a Hawaiian, but I support those that recognize the Sovereign Nation of Hawai&#039;i and fight to relinquish control over the Islands from the United States.  Look at how many countries outside of America that the US has taken over, look at the Philippines and Guam, American Samoa, and so many more...some they have stepped away from such as the Philippines and Guam, others are still occupied like American Samoa and Hawai&#039;i.  How can we ignore that the US just took over Hawai&#039;i and is still doing so today? Its America&#039;s dirty little secret that they don&#039;t want you to know, that the State of Hawai&#039;i is actually a Sovereign Nation that we took control of illegally.  Wouldn&#039;t it be nice if the United States, which believes so strongly in Freedom and Liberty that we fight devastating wars on the other side of the world, actually did more than just recognized the injustice that it is responsible for (The Apology Bill) and gave Hawai&#039;i back it&#039;s lands!</description>
