one thousand nine hundred three my country was invaded by the united states and we've been under an illegal and prolonged occupation ever since i've dedicated my life to not only finding out why the united states invaded my country but also how to bring the occupation to an. all why it was a long term american project it began with religious missionaries they left from boston in the eighteen twenty years to go to hawaii and live there to spend the rest of their lives civilizing the poor savages and barbarians as we saw them who lived in hawaii. and. this is the only policy on the back row. this was the executive monarchs

building. by eighty ninety three was already a constitutional monarchy so it had three separate branches of government. if which was here legislative and judicial which is across the street. the leader of these white awaya actually came to washington to win permission from the president of the united states to overthrow the government of the kingdom of all why he received that permission he went home he organized a coup in which the hawaiian kingdom was overthrown american marines were quickly landed to secure the new white government and a few years later

a white became part of the united states. so this is the place that u.s. marines landed this road here is where they marched from honolulu harbor and they occupied this location right here when they invaded my country the honking the. so we're at right now this is where camp smith this is headquarters for the pacific command and it overlooks pearl harbor and pro harbor is a naval base for the united states so it falls under the command structure of the pacific command.
10:55 pm
and what it was taken by the united states were invaded in order for the united states to control pearl harbor because of hawaii's location in central central in the central pacific so there's a central location that ships can. enter point ports after disarming refurbish the following ports rearm and go back fighting. is a little bit of the world who are busy gays and in peace and quiet mighty greedy so it was by this privilege that they were present all the things it was how do you know you to be p.c. nine eleven and nine thirty eight so what we see rising up out of that because people are these. monsters that are actually reads documents of an existing. document he said basically saying we're to write this book we are worthy to know the whole truth and the so it's all cool once
10:56 pm
again and the pious see that from the newspapers that received. the wave developed an unusual. view of the world because of our location we have huge oceans and a couple of weeks neighbors in mexico and canada therefore we've never had to have a foreign policy of clear cooperation with others we've been able because of our power to impose our will on others. won't we're here. on a charter school. by school level that we're going to be visiting. each year which people stewart a local one going to turn it over to you and your class so. anything for you to

we are the evidence. that the nationalisation where the evidence of the war crime we're not the war crimes ourselves. already is an independent country all that was overthrown and eighty ninety three was our government by the united states not our country so our country is still an independent state but we're not a control of our independence we're occupying. this book overthrow is in attempt to show the times that america overthrew foreign governments over a long period. the
10:59 pm
united states at least in a relative sense is declining in power in the world and we can still remain and i believe will still remain a potent dominant force in the world and we need to accept that the conditions of past decades don't exist anymore and we're not used to this we're not ready for this psychologically americans have always been on top we think of ourselves as always getting our way and we're entering into a period when that's not going to be so easy the challenge is can we adapt our habits of dominance to a more equal multi-polar. max
