TMT Work to Resume Says Ige!
Reporters can simply dress up as Protectors

Protectors will be happy to have the reporters in their midst.
Organizers can then claim protests are even bigger, this time they had 10,001 show up.

It'd be fascinating to see what would happen if the TMT chose Thanksgiving Day to resume construction-related work. I doubt it'll happen for various reasons, but the conflict of interests it'd provide would be worth watching after football and dinner...

Pog,

I saw your post before it was destroyed... [Wink]

I'm sure I can find a real football match to watch on the 26th (Liverpool vs Newcastle in '96 is still the best match ever), plenty of DVDs here (yes, I miss it), but then there's rugby football:

Maybe I'll watch some cricket instead, but will be able to watch at least one American football game that day. Yes, working that night...

No more until the question of Hawaiian sovereignty and land use rights is answered. Period.

Who has jurisdiction over the sovereignty issue? State and Federal courts would seem to have a conflict of interest -- in theory, any US Court should recuse itself, but the US doesn't recognize any international Court, what does that leave?

I guess dakine was born a ramblin' man.

Made it about 3 paragraphs in before abandoning it as the usual melodramatic - propagandistic wailing.

Mahalo Dakine, very well written.

It looks as though my keiki will be missing a few more days of public school this month, we don't know the state or TMT's new holiday intentions just yet.

Why not use that time wisely to show your keiki another way to respect and protect the aina and it's people? Organize a dengue cleanup day to locate and haul away anything that collects water and breeds mosquitoes? Just like people will make the TMT, people also make the bottles, tires, and plastic that have been carelessly discarded in the forests and along our roadways.

The protectors claim the TMT will cause pollution. What about the tires and plastic bottles already disintegrating across the aina? The protectors say the TMT takes away from the sacred nature of the land just by it's presence. What about the presence of garbage tossed all around the island? Doesn't that also diminish the sacred nature of the aina, not just in one location but everywhere?
