HawaiianKingdom.org 5-30-15… “Swiss Federal Criminal Court Recognizes Switzerland’s Treaty with the Hawaiian Kingdom was Never Cancelled…” AND WHY I BELIEVE THIS TITLE AND THE CONCLUSIONS DRAWN ARE INCORRECT

[Note: HKO = HawaiianKingdom.Org]

There was an article that came out last week with the title:
“Swiss Federal Criminal Court Recognizes Switzerland’s Treaty with the Hawaiian Kingdom was Never Cancelled and Implies Hawai‘i was Never Annexed”

And it flew all over the islands’ internets tubes, and lava tubes, up Saddle Road, over to Kilauea, across Mauna Loa, jumping over to Mauna Kea, to Haleakala, to Mt. Ka’ala, and down Kalalau Valley.

I just read this article for myself… And I also read the actual Switzerland Appeals Chamber [Court] document (German version) for myself.

From what I have read, the actual Appeals Chamber [Court] document does not agree with what the HKO article concludes. Not at all.

I will point out below what the HKO article says, what the [Swiss] Appeals Chamber [Court] document says, and my response to each part.

My comment about all this is, there is so much disinformation going around out there. A title of a blog article shows up, and all of a sudden there is a rush to proclaim, “So and so country recognizes the Kingdom of Hawai’i”, or “Court claims Poi still exists”, or “Eddie Aikau has returned to be King of the New Kingdom of Hawai’i”.

My suggestion for all of this… Read the data for yourself and draw your own conclusions.

————————————————————

[From HKO article] “…the two critical statements the Court made about the status of Hawai‘i… First, the Court stated that the 1864 Treaty between Switzerland and the Hawaiian Kingdom was never canceled—and is still in effect.”

Kp response: Disagree. That is NOT what the court document states.

What the document states (p.2, para. 4):

“The Appeals Chamber states:… that, in addition, by way of a letter dated January 22, 2015, Sai, in the name of Kale Kepekaio Gumapac (henceforth “Gumapac”) contacted the office of the Federal Attorney General and requested that criminal proceedings against Josef Ackermann (henceforth “Ackermann”), the former CEO of Deutsche Bank National Trust Company (henceforth “Deutsche Bank”) be opened and in this connection invoked rights deriving from Art. 1 of the friendship treaty between the Swiss Confederation and the then Hawaiian Kingdom of July 20, 1864, which has not been cancelled;”

• “Boiling it down” translation: The Appeals Chamber states:… Sai… invoked rights deriving from the… treaty… of July 20, 1864, which has not been cancelled…
• “Boiling it down” conclusion: Dr. Sai, in his blog post, is simply repeating what Dr. Sai invoked in his letter, dated January 22, 2015.

The Appeals Chamber itself did not state “the 1864 Treaty between Switzerland and the Hawaiian Kingdom was never canceled”. Dr. Sai did.

[From HKO article]: “Second, the Court identified certain officials and former officials of the State of Hawaii by name as possibly subject to a continuing investigation as to alleged war crimes.”

Kp response: Disagree. That is NOT what the court document states.

What the document states (p.2, para. 3):

“The Appeals Chamber states:… that by way of a letter dated January 21, 2015, [unnamed] and his representative Sai made a criminal complaint with the Office of the Federal Attorney General, stating that [unnamed] was a victim of a war crime according to Art. 115 StPO, because during the years 2006-­‐2007 and 2011-­‐2013, he had paid taxes to US-­‐ American authorities in Hawaii without justification, and that , in addition, is the victim of fraud, committed by the State of Hawaii, because together with his wife he wanted to acquire a real estate property, which however on the basis of the lacking legitimacy of the official authorities of Hawaii to transfer the property title, was not possible, for which reason the governor of the State of Hawaii Neil Abercrombie (henceforth “Abercrombie”), Lieutenant Shan Tsutsui (henceforth “Tsutsui”), the director of the Department of Taxation Frederik Pablo (henceforth “Pablo”) and his deputy Joshua Wisch (henceforth “Wisch”) are to be held criminally accountable for the pillaging of ’s private property and for fraud;”

• “Boiling it down” translation: The Appeals Chamber states:… Sai made a criminal complaint… stating that [unnamed] was a victim of a war crime… in addition, [unnamed] is the victim of fraud, committed by the State of Hawaii, for which reason… Abercrombie… Tsutsui… Pablo… and… Wisch… are to be held criminally accountable…
  — or, with a bit more boiling —
  Sai made a complaint stating [unnamed] was a victim of war crime and fraud for which four State officials are criminally accountable.
• “Boiling it down” conclusion: Dr. Sai, in his blog post, is simply repeating what Dr. Sai had written in his criminal complaint, dated January 21, 2015.

The Appeals Chamber itself had not “identified certain officials and former officials of the State of Hawaii by name as possibly subject to a continuing investigation as to alleged war crimes”. Dr. Sai had.
