Everything you learned about Hawai‘i’s “annexation” was wrong. In this fascinating interview, Dr. Keanu Sai — political scientist, historian, and international law expert — lays out the irrefutable legal proof that the United States never lawfully annexed Hawai‘i.Under international law, the Hawaiian Kingdom still exists, making this the longest ongoing illegal occupation in modern history. From the University of Hawai‘i classrooms to the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague, Dr. Sai has spent decades documenting the truth and putting the world on notice.In this episode, we explore:How U.S. history books erased Hawai‘i’s true legal statusThe difference between U.S. domestic law and international lawThe landmark Permanent Court of Arbitration case on Hawai‘iWhy the U.S. government has quietly admitted the occupationWhat forcing compliance around the laws of occupation could mean for the future00:00 - Cold Open02:26 - Episode Intro03:42 - Are we living through authoritarianism?17:59 - Israel murders Al Jazeera journalists, including Anas Al-Sharif30:49 - Interview preview33:32 - Interview w/ Dr. Keanu Sai36:32 - Uncovering Hawai‘i’s Hidden History51:53 - Proving Illegal Occupation: From UH to The Hague1:01:49 - Statehood: International Law vs. U.S. Domestic Law1:05:38 - Unconquered States & Global Context1:11:25 - The U.S. Admits the Occupation1:17:32 - Putting the World on Notice1:24:02 - The Hawaiian Constitution as a Pacific Model1:28:22 - Enforcing the Laws of Occupation1:40:32 - Life After Occupation + The Hawaiian Kingdom’s Political Economy1:46:57 - The Chief of War ConnectionArticles/Resources: ✅ Project 2025 Tracker: http://bit.ly/4lv6aoF✅ ICE has more money than federal prisons: http://bit.ly/47A7Mdc✅ ICE has more money than most world militaries: http://bit.ly/47vDlVz✅ Trump SCOTUS Immunity Ruling: http://bit.ly/47urabD✅ Trump BLS pick wants to scrap jobs report: http://bit.ly/41BvKkv✅ Final will of Anas Al Sharif of Al Jazeera: http://bit.ly/3HbUxVH✅ Australia to recognize Palestine as a State: http://bit.ly/4mg7yN5✅ Gaza Food Aid Whistleblower Interview: http://bit.ly/41BvQbR✅ Two Israeli Human Rights Group Declare Genocide: http://bit.ly/46Sbejj✅ Disintegration of International Law: http://bit.ly/4mf1Bjh✅ Hawaiian Kingdom Blog: http://bit.ly/4mr8NZG✅ Unconquered States: Non European Powers in the Imperial Age: http://bit.ly/4mecnpY✅ Blount Report + Primary Source Documents: http://bit.ly/4mecstM✅ Royal Commission of Inquiry (War Crimes): http://bit.ly/45OaSZQ
