ABORIGINAL: Being the first original inhabitants of a region (ie, Aboriginal stock of Hawaiians).

INDIGENOUS: Born, raised or living as a native resident of a region, but not being the first original inhabitants (ie, Native Californian or Native New Yorker).

The words INDIGENOUS and even SELF-DETERMINATION are terms used by the U.S. Federal Government to intentionally and wrongfully "Label" Hawaiians as an "Indigenous" native peoples of the United States within the SCOPE OF INDIAN AFFAIRS POWERS as stated in the Akaka Bill.

This then places native Hawaiians into a specific racial classification that under the U.S. Constitution grants U.S. Congress plenary powers to legislate over the affairs of this racial group of "Indigenous" peoples, thus resolving the first two constitutional legal hurdles questioned under the Akaka Bill.

Thereafter then, the next two major federal laws, the 1) 1920 Hawaiian Homes Commission Act and 2) 1959 Statehood Admissions Act can now be implemented and applied directly to govern and dictate everything that transpires with all the "Indigenous" native Hawaiians under the Akaka Bill, which must all be within the framework and consistant with Federal Law (ie, these two 1920 & 1959 Acts).

This now establishes the two levals of government controls written into the Akaka Bill 1) FIRST LEVEL OF FEDERAL CONTROL granted to the Secretary of Interior over the native Hawaiian governing entity (a corporation rather than a Nation), its land base (DHHL), organic document (constitution) and citizens roll (50% Koko), ALL of which must be "Certified" and "Approved" at the "Discretion" of the Secretary of Interior before anything can proceed forward under the Akaka Bill.

The U.S. Federal Government further, delegates "BROAD AUTHORITY" to the State of Hawaii to administer over these two Federal Laws, thus establishing the 2) SECOND LEVEL OF DIRECT SUPERVISORY CONTROL granted to the State of Hawaii (ie, Governor and Legislature) over the daily affairs of the native Hawaiian governing entity, land base (DHHL), organic document (constitution) and citizens roll (50% Koko legislated by U.S. Congress in the 1920 HHC Act, which only congress can amend and change, NOT any Hawaiian "INPUT" into the Akaka Bill).

It is intuitively obvious that this is why the Hawaii Congressional Delegation, Governor, State Legislature and "Politically Connected" business interests are so strongly in favor of going out of their way pushing to pass the Akaka Bill, for this will grant them unquestionable federally mandated PERMANENT LEGAL CONTROL over the 1.8 million acres of CEDED LANDS that the unwary Hawaiians will no longer have any further recourse to legally challenge, and which they hope will also translate against the Independent Sovereignty Movement as well.

This is their "Big Scheme" that all this political manipulation and maneuvering only serves to achieve the U.S. Federal Governments ultimate goal to "Permanently" suppress and subjugate unwary Hawaiians (as they did Indians and Eskimos) into that degrading and demoralizing TRUST RELATIONSHIP (meaning native Hawaiians are a "Welfare" class of "Indigenous" people not capable of caring for themselves) as DOMESTIC DEPENDENT WARDS in a WELFARE STATE (their native Hawaiian governing entity) on a defined land base (DHHL Lands) which will later become their "Assigned" lands a TRIBAL RESERVATIONS, all under the 1ST LEVEL Secretary of the Interior Control and their 2ND LEVEL Direct Supervisory State of Hawaii Control, thus placing ALL Hawaiian "Participants" to the Akaka Bill in a lower social class that will be LESS THAN STATUS QUO, and further degrades their native Hawaiian governing entity below the level of Nation within a Nation, down to a county level of State within a State.

All the while, our "Bewildered" Hawaiian leadership of our Lt. Governor, our legislators with Koko, OHA, DHHL, SCHHA/HUI, Civic Clubs, Alulike, Papaolalohahi and other unwary Hawaiian supporters of the Akaka Bill are more interested in protecting their own Welfare Dependent Ward Status as their "Security Blanket" by Selling-Out our Independent Hawaiian Nation Down-The-River, in exchange for the "False Security" of their welfare handouts that they all BEG for under the disguise of "FEDERAL ENTITLEMENTS" (knowing Congress created and can dissolve the 1920 HHC Act, and the State created and can also dissolve OHA anytime they want), rather than to support the Cause and defend the fight our Ancestors started over 100 years ago, with Queen Lili'uokalani's two formal PROTESTS of 1893 and 1897 along with the "Petition Against Annexation" signed by over 38,000 (95%) of our Staunchly Patriotic Kupuna, in order to preserve and protect our National Rights under International Law, to restore our Independent Hawaiian Nation from the unlawful U.S. Military Occupation being Administered by their Civillian Arm Puppet Governments, the Republic of Hawaii, Territory of Hawaii and State of Hawaii.

These so called "Hawaiian Leaders" have purposely instigated and implanted this "False Security" and "False Hope" among our unwary Hawaiian community, further reacting like Little Pawns ignorantly stringing along with the political power brokers, begging like Welfare Dogs for their "Entitlements", in order to benefit their own personal interests and political agendas, thus becoming a Spineless Disgrace to the Aboriginal Stock of Hawaiians who are Loyal Patriotic Nationals. "I lalo e hana ka lima...A'ole i luna e lawe ka lima" (Turn your hands down and WORK for your living...Don't turn your hands up and BEG for Welfare Handouts).

KANAKA HAWAII MAOLI...Know your Adversaries and enemies...and take up the Cause of your Ancestors who were Loyal Nationalists of their Beloved Country and Mother Land, as stated in the song Mele Ai Pohaku (Kaulana Na Pua) "Maluna o ka pepa o ka enemi" ... Don't accept the evil document of the Enemy in the form of Federal Recognition under the Akaka Bill, for it is surely EVIL. The 1993 Apology Law apologizes for the lawless occupation disguised as an "Overthrow", but the Akaka Bill will LEGITIMIZE that so called "Overthrow".

Know this Kanaka Hawaii Maoli...know this...it was NOT an "Overthrow" under International Law of Nations, but rather an Unlawful Belligerent U.S. Military Occupation and can only be legally resolved in the International Courts of Justice, and NOT by any domestic Municipal Law of the United States. They are the Criminals, and you cannot allow the Thief to become Judge and Jury in their own court case.

ABORIGINAL Stock of Hawaiians, don't allow this to happen to yourselves and all your future descendants. Open your Maka to the HEWA being committed against you and your 'Ohana, repeating history all over again. Instead, Rally in Unity around the Cause of our Beloved Independent Hawaiian Nation, and its modern day Independent Sovereignty Movement, just as all your Ancestors and Kupuna did so fervently and impassionately in the not too long ago past.
