Ka Wai Ola: Living Into the UCC’s 1993 Apology to the Native Hawaiian People

Along with the International Association of Democratic Lawyers and the American Association of Jurists/Asociación Americana de Juristas – accredited non-government organizations to the UN Human Rights Council, AHEC fully supports the National Lawyers Guild’s 2019 resolution that calls upon the U.S. to immediately comply with international humanitarian law and condemns the prolonged and illegal occupation of the Hawaiian Islands. AHEC specifically:

• Condemns the unlawful presence of the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command with its 118 military sites throughout the Hawaiian Islands.

• Calls for the U.S. to comply with international humanitarian law and administer the laws in the Hawaiian Kingdom as an occupied state.

• Calls on the legal and human rights community to view the U.S. presence in the Hawaiian Islands through the prism of international law and to roundly condemn it as an illegal occupation under international law.

• Supports the Hawaiian Council of Regency, which represented the Hawaiian Kingdom in its efforts to seek resolution in accordance with international law as well as its strategy to have the State of Hawaiʻi and its counties comply with international humanitarian law for the administration of the occupying state. On May 20, 2021, the Hawaiian Kingdom filed a case in the U.S. federal court: Hawaiian Kingdom v. Biden, et al.

• Calls on all United Nations member and non-member states to ensure that the U.S. complies with international humanitarian law and brings to an end the unlawful occupation of the Hawaiian Islands.

  1. Reporting from Zoom Hearing in Hilo. All MK cases dismissed BUT the issue of whether WITH or WITHOUT prejudice will be heard on 29 April 830 a.m. Available on Zoom then.

  2. You might be armed what do you think do you think the United States is going to bow down and give you back your title meant it would open the doors for everything

    • GW.Remember the story of David and Goliath?All it takes is 1 pohaku to bring down the giant.All the documents and evidence is in Hawaii’s favor,and the world is watching usa in regards to the conflict between Russia and the Ukraine, and their hypocrisy towards Russia invasion, when they have occupied ko Hawaii pae aina since 1893.

    • @GW No need! USA never received any titles in the first place. Hence UN memo mentioning it. Hawaiian Islands government ran fine before the USA INVASION and installing their puppet government. They only have to leave and do business properly like other governments that have Treaties with us…not that difficult for a super power right?

    • Gary, I don’t think you understand the full breath of the ramifications of what will happen once the international community calls for the end of a 100 year + occupation of Hawaii. It will be an economic, legal and geopolitical nightmare for the United States. I would love to see the U.S. Pres. or head of the U.S. State Dept. say what you just said to the world. If the U.S. takes that foolish then the U.S. would lose any legitimacy for countering China from taking Taiwan or annexing all the islands in the South and East China sea. Well, maybe Russia could just pass a joint resolution and annex all of Ukraine. That would end the War. What would be the come back from the United States. You can’t do that it’s against international law. Give me a break Gary.

  4. Always sign without prejudice or under protest, if we learned anything from our Queen. Contract always under protest with the usurpers and their masters whom hold the Bible in one and sword in their other hand!
