How was Kamehameha not an occupier? He went to someone else's land and took it by force so he could have it. You mean the thousands of warriors on Oahu who got thrown to their deaths off the Pali cliffs after they were cornered in a take-no-prisoners battle against Kamehameha's invading forces were OK with being brutally killed by invaders? It never ceases to amaze me when someone implies that conflict between native peoples is less an injustice than stuff white folks do. I guess it follows that black people don't mind getting violently assaulted as long as it is other black people from their neighborhood that are doing it.
