It appears that the following violations have been hidden from the public over time by pirate nations who have  had a part in pirating lands, assets, taxes, etc. from the Kingdom of Hawaii.... these issues are posted for the World to see because the Hawaiian Islands are occupied by White Annexationists, Supporters/White Supremacists, Supporters who have animosities against the Hawaiian people/kanaka maoli/Ko Hawaii Pae Aina people who are people of color , also called "Niggers" or Indians even today  (see " Niggers or Indians " article below):

The United States of America are occupiers, due to military invasion since 1893.  

There was No Annexation meaning they have No Jurisdiction and are documented occupiers who have supported treasonous persons who were white annexationists/supremacists, the haters of people of color.

They are documented pirates as documented by Kamehameha III in his Neutrality law of 1854.  

Indoctrinating everyone was the plan and through research the following are important evidence of their War Crimes, Genocide, Warring against our Neutral, friendly, non-violent, innocent people since 1893.

The following evidence is for all to know, be aware of because the U.S. is on record along with Great Britain and France in failing to following rule of law, including international laws:

******************

Reference:

This article shows that a Protectorate was given to the usurpers in 1896.  This is evidence that the three (3) nations, the U.S., Great Britain, and France did breach the Treaties, the Protectorate, and the Neutrality law of Kamehameha III:

 


SUMMARY

It is important for everyone to know that the U.S. was bankrupt in 1893 and nearly out of gold.

The U.S. Representative had asked the Kingdom of Hawaii for a loan and the House of Nobles denied the request because the U.S. would not pay the loan back for thousands of years.

The Jews had loaned the U.S. monies expecting a 10% interest back, instead the Jews were killed in World War II and the loans? what became of the debts?

The U.S. funds genocide activists even today likened to the genocide activists in Hawaii who helped themselves to lands, monies, etc. based on piracies.

Funding wars at the expense of our peaceful, neutral, non-violent nation is not O.K.

Annexation claims are lies.  Evidence has been uncovered that there was no Annexation, the entity created the U.S. President McKinley are documented Pirates supported by the U.S., Great Britain, and France who were parties too the crimes against a neutral, friendly, non-violent nation which happens to be people of color viewed as niggers and Indians.

Rule of Law Fail documented for entry into the International arena records showing hate crimes, genocide, war against peace, pirating activities which includes collection of taxes by non-owners who have No Annexation and are documented occupiers, the haters of people of peace, etc. 

Research incomplete.

Note:  Conspiracy within the Kingdom of Hawaii is documented in 1843 due to the failure of observing that both Great Britain and France had recognized the independence of a sovereign nation, the Kingdom of Hawaii.

The Minister of Foreign Relations/Affairs failed to point out to Kamehameha III that there was indeed a stipulation documented affecting the independence of the Kingdom of Hawaii, etc.

This also shows that the Minister of Foreign Affairs conspired against the Kingdom of Hawaii's Kamehameha III due to his failure of informing him that the Stipulation was in place since 1843.

Kamehameha III obtained a Three way Protectorate from the U.S., Great Britain, and France in 1854.

In 1893, the usurpers/Provisional Government gained the support of the United States on February 1, 1893.  The United States removed the Protectorate from the already recognized nation known as the Kingdom of Hawaii, ignored Queen Liliuokalani's request of November 14, 1892..

This stipulation of 1843 remains legal, lawful, and to be held accountable.

It appears Great Britain and France breached their stipulations on record, etc.

It also appears that the United States, Great Britain, and France failed to follow the Protectorate signed with Kamehameha III - Kauikeaouli in 1854.


The Breach of the Neutrality Law has been breached by the United States, Great Britain, and France in 1893.  The Neutrality Law was passed by Kamehameha III - Kauikeauouli in 1854.

U.S. President Grover Cleveland in 1897 did remind Americans of the breach of the Neutrality. Law of 1854.

Conclusion:

Because there was No Annexation, the Natives of Hawaii do not have the same privileges of Americans and are to be compared with Niggers and Indians..

The Natives of Hawaii are to be treated as American Indians or Slave/Niggers because the entity State of Hawaii is a created government directed by U.S. President McKinley to be a territory of the United States "developed" by the U.S. Army, Navy, and others which was placed under the American Empire with other territories that had no Sovereignty.


The native Hawaiians, kanaka maoli are the legitimate  people living and owning Allodial lands in the Kingdom of Hawaii, the Legitimate Royal Government in the Hawaiian Islands, the Hawaiian archipelago.

Kamehameha III in 1852 passed the anti-slavery laws which were disregarded by the white annexationists/white supremacists who moved against the Constitutional Monarchy government in Hawaii supported by the U.S. who failed to follow rule of law, the U.S. Constitution, the 1854 Protectorate, the 1854 Neutrality Law, and the agreement made by the U.S. Junta in 1893.

The entity created by the U.S. called the State of Hawaii has only a fractional sovereignty a 1/50 interest in the 100% sovereignty of the U.S. and is not a legal state, yet, the desire to call our Native Hawaiians/kanaka maoli "Niggers or Indians" continues on even today.

As the U.S. Junta had agreed with Queen Liliuokalani, if it was found that the U.S. had something to do with her usurpation, etc., then all shall be returned.

Evidence has been found, so therefore, all shall be returned.

Validation of the U.S. involvement can be obtained by downloading all articles of evidence posted on the internet for more than 10 years under the news on the web:  IOLANI - the Royal Hawk, all articles by Amelia Gora, and other whistleblowers.  Also pamphlets, books, articles written are also proof of the moves against a neutral, friendly, non-violent nation since the time of Kamehameha III - Kauikeaouli.

Queen Liliuokalani maintained the neutrality, non-violent, friendly status of Kamehameha III - Kauikeaouli.

Piracy activities have been engaged in since 1893 with the criminal assumption of lands, taxes, income from duties, rents, leases, monies, from the treasury, Hawaiian gold, artifacts, treasures, Alii Trusts - lands, monies, income from shipping duties, etc. criminally confiscated by usurpers who were supported by the United States invasion.


The Pirate status of the United States, Great Britain, France, et. als. absolutely changes the perspective towards nations who claim to follow rule of law because the Kingdom of Hawaii's occupation status, pirated loands, treasury, gold, etc. is evidence for all nations to see that following such nations with breaches, violations means that many nations have aligned themselves with Pirates, frauds, swindlers, thieves, immoral nations who have failed to follow rule of law and are uncivilized nations among the civilized nations documented from a peaceful, neutral, friendly, non-violent nation known as the Kingdom of Hawaii.

As agreed to by the Junta/U.S. Junta and Queen Liliuokalani, all shall be returned when found that the United States was part of usurping her, etc.

Also, there was no Annexation which means that the U.S. has no Jurisdiction in the Hawaiian archipelago/ the Hawaiian Islands/the Kingdom of Hawaii/Ko Hawaii Pae Aina.

Notes

  1. ^ Some historians name the 1861–1865 war the "Second American Civil War", because in their view, the American Revolutionary War can also be considered a civil war (since the term can be used in reference to any war in which one political body separates itself from another political body). They then refer to the Independence War, which resulted in the separation of the Thirteen Colonies from the British Empire, as the "First American Civil War".[1][2] A significant number of American colonists stayed loyal to the British Crown and as Loyalists fought on the British side while opposite were a significant amount of colonists called Patriots who fought on the American side. In some localities, there was fierce fighting between Americans including gruesome instances of hanging, drawing, and quartering on both sides.[3][4][5][6]
    • As early as 1789, David Ramsay, an American patriot historian, wrote in his History of the American Revolution that "Many circumstances concurred to make the American war particularly calamitous. It was originally a civil war in the estimation of both parties."[7] Framing the American Revolutionary War as a civil war is gaining increasing examination.[8][9][10][1]. You can read part two of his 1789 book in full here
    • A group of Bristol, England merchants wrote to King George III in 1775 voicing their “most anxious apprehensions for ourselves and Posterity that we behold the growing distractions in America threaten” and ask for their majesty’s “Wisdom and Goodness” to save them from “a lasting and ruinous Civil War.”[2]. You can read the 1775 petition in full here
    • The “constrained voice” is a good synopsis of how the British viewed the American Revolutionary War. From anxiety to a foreboding sense of the conflict being a civil war,[3]
    • In the early stages of the rebellion by the American colonists, most of them still saw themselves as English subjects who were being denied their rights as such. “Taxation without representation is tyranny,” James Otis reportedly said in protest of the lack of colonial representation in Parliament. What made the American Revolution look most like a civil war, though, was the reality that about one-third of the colonists, known as loyalists (or Tories), continued to support and fought on the side of the crown.[4]
  2. ^ France entered the American Revolution on the side of the colonists in 1778, turning what had essentially been a civil war into an international conflict.[5]
    • The Revolution was both an international conflict, with Britain and France vying on land and sea, and a civil war among the colonists, causing over 60,000 loyalists to flee their homes.[6]
    • Until early in 1778 the conflict was a civil war within the British Empire, but afterward it became an international war as France (in 1778) and Spain (in 1779) joined the colonies against Britain. Meanwhile, the Netherlands, which provided both official recognition of the United States and financial support for it, was engaged in its own war against Britain.[7]
