Re: Battle Of Nu'uanu Pali redux
14,000 troops in several days? That's a lot of canoes! And all the way from the Big Island, past Maui and landing in Kahala. I would imagine by the time Kamehameha's warriors landed in Kahala they would be too tired to be an overwhelming force to reckon with.
That's an incredible story!Life is what you make of it...so please read the instructions carefully.

That's an incredible story!“First we fought the preliminary round for the k***s and now we’re gonna fight the main event for the n*****s."

Re: Battle Of Nu'uanu Pali redux
It takes a ton of political correctness and blind belief to confuse these two words......
unite and conquer
Did Hitler "unite" Europe?
In some cultures, the man who does the most slaughtering is revered. I'm not saying it's right or wrong, and I'm not passing any judgements. But facts are the facts, and savage brutality often results in massive death, no matter how you sugar coat it with PC history/culture.FutureNewsNetwork.com
