one thousand nine hundred three my country was invaded by the united states had to leave 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 end it. all why was the law. long term american project it began with religious missionaries they left from boston in the eighteen twenty six 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 a white. room. this is the only policy on the back row. this was the executive monarchs
11:52 pm
bilby. hawaii by eight hundred ninety three was already a constitutional monarchy so it had three separate branches of government executive which was here legislative and judicial which is across the street. the leader of these white a lawyer actually came to washington to win permission from the president of the united states to overthrow the government of the kingdom of hawaii he received that permission he went home he organized a coup in which the hawaiian kingdom was overthrown american marines were quickly landed just secured the new white government and
11:53 pm
a few years later a y e 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 break here when they invaded my country the honking the. so we're at right now this is where camps. this is headquarters for the pacific command and it overlooks pearl harbor and pro harbor is a naval base for the united states what falls under the command structure of the pacific command.
11:54 pm
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 could enter point ports after disarming refurbish leave hole in ports rearm and go back fighting. a little bit of who it was he gazed into in piece. by mighty pike creek sleep with find this very delicious they represent all the things it was happy it will be to be easy ninety and ninety third so what we see rising up out of the last people are these. monsters that are injury. document of annotations. talking to each other basically saying we're right this is what we are worthy to know little truth and absolute most of all public and high see
11:55 pm
that from the newspapers that we're seeing being left. we've developed. an unusual. view of the world because of our location we have huge oceans and a couple of weak 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 here hello come on a charter school. by school level there we're going to be visiting. you share with you folks you have a local one going to turn it over to you and your plans so. they can for you feel

11:57 pm
we are the evidence. but 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 in 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
11:58 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 or. us
11:59 pm

12:00 am
