Hawaii: The Stolen Paradise (Hawaii Documentary) History Documentary Reel Truth History
Hawaii was a recognized independent nation prior to January 17, 1893. On that day, the nation and government was illegally overthrown by the United States. Since then, the USA has illegally assumed control over Hawaii turning the islands into Military Bases that threaten world peace.
The United States claims that Hawaii was lawfully annexed as the 50th State. What would you think when you find out that is Not True!
In fact the United States government signed a Joint Resolution of the Congress in 1993 that “acknowledges that the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii occurred with the active participation of agents and citizens of the United States and further acknowledges that the Native Hawaiian people never directly relinquished to the United States their claims to their inherent sovereignty as a people over their national lands, either through the Kingdom of Hawaii or through a plebiscite or referendum”
On 1999 the Hawaiians reinstated a government pro tempore and continue to implement steps to reinstate laws of the Hawaiian government to reclaim their sovereign independent status from the United States. A story that needs to be told!
