Military: Don't contaminate more land in Hawai'i


In the Advertiser letters, Marisa M. Plemer asks a series of pertinent questions, starting with: "How do we as mere citizens respond to the autocratic meth ods employed by Sens. Dan Inouye and Daniel Akaka, Rep. Neil Abercrombie, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, our own state government and Congress approving the Army Transformation Stryker Brigades before the public response period is even over on Jan. 3, 2004? Is this the democracy that American soldiers are dying for in the Middle East? When is the Army going to spend money decontaminating the 138 toxic-waste sites already in existence according to the Federal Hazardous Waste Sites?"

Bryan Baptiste, Mayor of Kaua'i, also has a letter regarding access to Papa'a Bay, for which four people were arrested while celebrating Sunday.
