And there's the little matter of the Statehood vote which passed by a huge margin, even among Hawaiians.

Basically it was: become a State, yes or no?
Hawaii was already a Territory.
The Yes vote was 93%.
But it was set up by the US government and are Congressional acts that hold no weight outside of US territory.
There is no treaty of annexation. Only a joint resolution, that again is a congressional act that holds no weight outside of US territory. Therefore Hawaii has been illegally occupied.
