No, you didn't say any of that. You asked, "is Hawaii a state?" Any third-grade elementary school student knows that the answer to that question is "yes".

Now that you bring up these additional points, I have to ask "which illegal act?" Hawaii became a state through an act of Congress. By definition, an act Congress (once signed by the President or otherwise passed) is the law of the land unless declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. Since the Supreme Court hasn't declared the statehood of Hawaii unconstitutional, that act is legal and Hawaii is a state.

Now, that is not to belittle the history of our country's treatment of Hawaii, which was a sovereign nation when we took it over. But sometimes that's the way it goes. No doubt the eastern European countries would have preferred that they didn't get turned over to the Soviet Union after WWII. But they did, it's history, it's past.
