Transforming Hawaii: As goes Uganda, so goes Hawaii ?

[Are_grits_groceries]

"It doesn't matter if the Republican or the Democratic candidate wins the governorship . Either one is already in the kingdom," declared International Transformation Network Founder and CEO Ed Silvoso at the March 4-6 Convergence 2010 conference in Dallas, as Silvoso was announcing the ITN's upcoming 20th International Transformation Network conference, scheduled to be held November 9-14, 2010 at the Hilton Hawaiian Village near Honolulu.


"We're one body of Christ, we're one church and we're all here to disciple the nations, here in Hawaii and everywhere else, and I want you all to know that... May God's grace be with the participants of the International Transformation Network Global conference. Aloha, from myself, Lt. Governor Duke Aiona to all of you but in particular to pastor Ed "

Inside the US, the International Transformation Network is not overtly eliminationist. But ITN faculty members have endorsed the work of church-based, government-backed death squads in Latin America and, in Africa, the ITN is associated with pending legislation apparently aimed at eliminating or imprisoning an entire segment of Ugandan society.
As goes Uganda, so goes Hawaii ?

ITN operatives have played a significant role organizing and inspiring Ugandan legislators who have drafted, cosponsored, and backed the draconian and internationally denounced Anti Homosexuality Bill before Uganda's parliament which would mandate the execution of many HIV positive Ugandans and also require, on pain of three years in prison, that citizens report to the police anyone suspected of being gay. The penalty for being homosexual in Uganda is imprisonment for life.

International Transformation Network leaders such as Ed Silvoso claim homosexuals are possessed by demons, assert that HIV and AIDS can be cured through faith healing and prayer, and decry basic birth control methods. They oppose labor unions and secular public education. ITN ideology targets mainstream Christianity with the charge that Catholics and Protestants who are not "born again" and charismatic are not saved and so will not go to heaven.

The evil spreads faster than the common cold.

3. possibly another way that the Birthers could say Obama's not a citizen?

Hawaii breaks from the U.S. ... suddenly, a Hawaiian birth certificate ain't worth anything?

There he is, the Republican candidate running in 2010 to be Hawaii's next governor, up onstage at a November 2009 conference near Honolulu being blessed and anointed by a religious leader who likens his opponents to rats which will be exterminated (see 2nd video, below).

The leader's name is Ed Silvoso. He's the founder of a organization called the International Transformation Network which is working with Uganda's top leaders to "transform" that country. Silvoso's ITN is also fielding a small army of volunteer organizers in Newark, NJ http://www.talk2action.org/story/2010/1/21/15336/6128 . The far-flung ITN has "Transformation" operations ongoing across the globe.

As my extended report Transforming Hawaii {part 1 http://www.talk2action.org/story/2010/4/17/112159/323 , part 2 http://www.talk2action.org/story/2010/4/17/112351/811 } details, Lt. Governor James "Duke" Aiona, the 2010 GOP Hawaii gubernatorial candidate, is extensively and intimately tied to the International Transformation Network which is part of a global movement within charismatic evangelical Christianity that seeks to "transform" the Earth by purging it of perceived evil.

As my 20 minute video documentary Transforming Uganda http://www.talk2action.org/story/2010/1/15/134445/911 (cited January 2010 in testimony before Congress' Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission) details, the International Transformation Network is closely linked to the so-called "Kill the gays" bill now before Uganda's Parliament that would allow the execution of gay Ugandans and mandate that Ugandan citizens become police informants.

Ed Silvoso is an apostle in C. Peter Wagner's International Coalition of Apostles. ICA apostles, and members of Wagner's Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders (ACPE), are in the forefront of antigay organizing globally. As reported in an early 2009 Charisma Magazine story, ACPE member and ICA apostle Mary Glazier is a good friend of Sarah Palin. Palin joined Glazier's personal prayer network at the age of 24. Palin is closely linked http://www.talk2action.org/story/2008/9/5/114652/6239 to the movement and as governor Alaska Palin, like Duke Aiona, also dedicated her state to Jesus.
