Lanny Sinkin Biographical Information

August 14, 2013 Mr. Sinkin was born in San Antonio, Texas, United States. His parents, Fay (dec. 2009) and William Sinkin (dec. 2014), were both highly respected leaders and activists in the San Antonio community. Mr. Sinkin attended Alamo Heights High School. He got his Bachelor's degree at Harvard College in 1967. He received a Fulbright Scholarship to go to Venezuela in 1967-68. He received his law degree from the University of Texas School of Law in 1985. While in college, Mr. Sinkin volunteered with the Catholic Inter-american Student Project. He participated in the design and construction of a simple water transportation and delivery system for a small village in rural Mexico over a three-month period. In 1967, Mr. Sinkin coordinated Vietnam Summer in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He trained and supervised three hundred volunteers, who went door to door in the Cambridge community to educate people about the Vietnam War. At the end of a three month effort, the Congressman from the Cambridge area, Speaker of the House Thomas  “Tip”  O’Neill,  Jr.,  changed  his  position  and  opposed  continued  funding  for  the  war. In the early 1970s, Mr. Sinkin served as Executive Director of the Urban Coalition of Metropolitan San Antonio. His father, William Sinkin, served as Chairman. The Coalition brought together business, environmental, activist, and other organizations to address urban challenges and develop policy responses. Among the issues addressed were excessive use of force by police; nuclear power; and protection of the Edwards Aquifer, the sole source of water for San Antonio. In the mid-seventies, Mr. Sinkin co-founded the Aquifer Protection Association with his mother, Fay Sinkin. The goal of the organization was to protect the quality and quantity of the Edwards Aquifer. Mr. Sinkin coordinated a city-wide petition drive that gathered enough signatures to place a referendum on the ballot challenging a City Council decision to approve zoning for a large shopping mall to be built in the recharge zone of the Aquifer. Mr. Sinkin also coordinated the campaign to pass the referendum. The referendum passed with 76% approval. In the late 1970s, Mr. Sinkin served as Coordinator of Citizens Concerned About Nuclear Power (CCANP). The organization conducted educational campaigns regarding the dangers of nuclear power plants and intervened in the licensing hearings convened by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for the South Texas Nuclear Project. That project was a joint venture of four utilities, including City Public Service of San Antonio. Mr. Sinkin served as a lay representative for CCANP before the NRC licensing board, while attending the University of Texas School of Law.

During the course of his work on the nuclear issue, Mr. Sinkin developed evidence of poor construction practices, as well as the beating and intimidation of safety inspectors. He took this evidence to the regional NRC office, which conducted an investigation that concluded the allegations were without substance. Mr. Sinkin then took the evidence to the CBS News Sixty Minutes program. Sixty Minutes produced a segment on the problems at the nuclear power plant, featuring an interview with an inspector, who had initially brought evidence to Mr. Sinkin. After the airing of the Sixty Minutes program, the national office of the NRC sent a team of inspectors from around the country into the South Texas Nuclear Project. When the team concluded their investigation, the NRC ordered construction suspended and levied the highest fine in NRC history at that time against the project. The investigation confirmed the allegations brought to the NRC by Mr. Sinkin. Subsequently, Mr. Sinkin brought evidence of substandard engineering practices to the attention of the NRC licensing board. At that point, the project managers fired the company responsible for design, engineering, construction, and inspection. The fired company eventually paid more than $700 million in damages to the managing partners. Overall, Mr. Sinkin spent ten years litigating licensing hearings for nuclear power plants, often assisting in exposing substandard practices and faulty design, engineering, and/or construction. In the early 1980s, Mr. Sinkin joined the Christic Institute, an interfaith law and public policy center in Washington, D.C. At the Institute, Mr. Sinkin worked on two major cases. The first case was a racketeering case against the private covert operation that was part of the Iran-contra operation. Six months before Attorney General Ed Meese announced the existence of the secret program, the Institute filed a lawsuit exposing the program and naming many of the major players in the private component, include John Singlaub, Richard Secord, and Albert Hakim. The second case sought to prevent the launch of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Galileo Mission to Jupiter based on the environmental risks created by the presence of fifty pounds of plutonium on the space shuttle as part of the mission. After leaving the Institute, Mr. Sinkin moved to Portland, Oregon. There he provided political  commentary  on  a  weekly  basis  to  Marlene  Smith’s  program  on  KBOO  Radio.

In 1992, Mr. Sinkin moved to Hawai’i.    There he provided legal advice to the Hawaiian sovereignty movement, working with various groups seeking to restore the independent Hawaiian Nation. Mr. Sinkin also provided legal advice to the Temple of Lono, a traditional Hawaiian faith driven underground by religious persecution in the early 1800s and emerging from hiding in the early 1970s. Mr. Sinkin is currently assisting efforts by the Temple of Lono and  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i  to  reclaim  the  Pu’uhonua  O  Honaunau  sacred  site  that  is  now a national park in the United States National Park Service. In  Hawai’i,  he  filed  another  suit  challenging  NASA’s  use  of  plutonium  in  the  deep  space  Casini Mission to Saturn. In the late 1990s, Mr. Sinkin filed multiple suits against the United State Navy challenging the testing of low frequency active sonar on the Whales  in  Hawai’i.   In one such case, Mr. Sinkin filed suit with the Cetacean Community (Whales, Dolphins, and Porpoises) as the only plaintiffs. The suit attempted to establish legal standing for endangered species, in this case the Hawaiian Whales, to file suit in their own name without the need for a Human surrogate. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals denied standing to the endangered species, stating that it was up to Congress, not the courts, to expand standing to include animals. The Court also ruled that there was nothing in Article III of the United States Constitution that would prevent Congress from granting such standing. Mr.  Sinkin  also  filed  a  suit  challenging  the  United  States  Coast  Guard’s  use  of  a  security  zone to permit the operation of the Hawaii Superferry. The suit alleged that the Superferry was operating in violation of environmental laws and that the Coast Guard security zone violated the rights of those attempting to prevent the illegal operation of the Superferry by conducting a surf board blockade of the harbor in  Kaua’i. During  his  time  on  the  Island  of  Hawai’i,  Mr.  Sinkin  co-founded the Rainbow Friends Animal  Sanctuary  in  Kurtistown,  Hawai’I, where he worked for seven years. The Sanctuary provides shelter, medical care, and adoption services for mostly dogs and cats. In 2009, Mr. Sinkin returned to San Antonio to be with his father. Mr. Sinkin served as the Executive Director of Solar San Antonio, an organization his father founded in 1999. As Executive Director, Mr. Sinkin encouraged the use of solar energy through public policies, regulatory and financing mechanisms, public education, and marketing strategies. During  Mr.  Sinkin’s  tenure,  the  organization  was  responsible  for  the  deployment 1.5 megawatts of distributed solar on household and commercial rooftops with a value of more than $7 million. The innovative Bring Solar Home Campaign developed by Mr. Sinkin is nationally recognized for its contribution to the expanded deployment of solar.

In 2015, Mr. Sinkin returned to the Hawaiian Islands to devote himself full time to the restoration  of  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i. For the past eleven years, Mr. Sinkin has served as  Ali’i  Mana’o  Nui  (Chief  Advisor)  to  Ali’i  Nui  Mo’i  (High  Chief/King)  Edmund  Keli’i  Silva,  Jr.  of  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i.   Mr. Sinkin is working with the King developing and implementing the restoration process for the Hawaiian Nation. Mr. Sinkin is a writer, lecturer, and commentator on a wide range of issues.

King Kamehameha III

In 1843, a British commander named George Paulet pressured Kauikeaouli into surrendering the Hawaiian kingdom to the British crown. It was during this brief period of uncertainty that the king uttered the phrase that eventually became Hawaii’s  motto:  “Ua  mau  ke  ea  o  ka  aina  i  ka  pono”—”The  life  of  the  land is perpetuated  in  righteousness.”  Less  than  five  months  later,  Britain  rejected  the  commander’s  actions  and  the  kingdom  was  restored  to  Kauikeaouli.  

Aloha Kakou,

There are talented, diligent men and women who are successful enough that we have heard of them. But they stand above other prominent people for their character. Their highest priority is doing  what’s  right, not what gives them status, money or fame. But, you must know too, that these people have fought a million little, behind-the-scenes battles to maintain their integrity. They have a vision, of how they want to live their lives and they will not compromise it for any of the enticements that tempt others to live their lives so as, to win the approval of others. People who do this are exceptionally rare.

Many have responded to my kahea. 97% support my endorsement of Ali’i Nui Mo’i Keli’i and his vision for our Kingdom while the other 3% went on a tirade of absurd emotions not worth sharing. In my custody for full examination and disclosure, I have emails  from  not  only  Hawai’i  but  from  California,  Washington State, Nevada, Alaska, Colorado, New York, South America, New Zealand, Australia, Tahiti, Tonga, Samoa, England, Germany, Japan and China. And, more is still coming in. I cannot answer them all 'Sorry'. But, I am grateful and I thank all of you for your support and wanting to become subjects of our kingdom. I  shall  pass  on  your  love  to  our  Mo’i;  he  will  be  even  more  humbled  by  the  response of so many.

There was a common tread in all the emails as, to his genealogy. Our Mo'i comes from two royal pedigrees, King  Kamehameha  Nui  ‘Ai  Lu’au and  the  Ni’au  pi’o” Sacred line. Our  Mo’i  and  Queen  Lili’uokalani  connect  to  the  Paki  line  otherwise  known as the sacred line. Ali'i Nui Mo'i Keli'i is anointed of Akua and I Testify to this without doubt. Invite him to speak, then judge for yourself. You will not be disappointed.

I never imagined I  would  meet  our  Ali’i  Nui  Mo’i  until  a  few  short  weeks ago, when I heard him give a talk about self-sustainability, Aloha Aina and Governance. He also spoke of building a peace center on the Big Island to where world leaders would come and voice their concerns about economics and all issues regarding their nations without threat of war. He spoke of handling issues the ancient and proven Hawaiian way that will tear down racial and economic barriers that separates us from being one people, one voice and one nation. He talked  about  ‘us’  healing  our  hearts,  mind  and  soul  by  forgiveness and love. I never thought many of us had a decapitated spirit until I heard him say, losing an arm and a leg is tough; worse yet, is a man or women with a decapitated spirit. Having a decapitated spirit is the spirit of depression, self-doubt and worse.

He also spoke of the old ways in connecting us back to our roots and being in commune with nature, our ancestors, culture and traditions. That, our way of life does detach us from the rest of the world because of our strong connection to Akua and the natural world.

His  words  were  the  words  I  imagined  Princess  Ka’iulani  and  Queen  Lili’uokalani  would  say. There are no coincidences that everything happens for a reason as to why, I was there at the Kupuna meeting; spirits lead me there. I have been absent from sovereignty meetings because of the pilikia, name callings and worse. That day, Akua answered my prayers and lead  me  to  our  Mo’i.

His  closing  statement  still  stands  out  in  my  mind,  “Huna Kalani -- Finding your lost family members and bringing peace; changing unwanted family patterns to end family misfortunes. Peace comes with the perfect knowledge that you can serve something greater than the demands of your thoughtless pride; To serve your family spirit, your lineage, your aumakua, your fears, your hopes, your dreams and your goals is pono.

We were severely  wronged.    But  rather  than  blaming  people  for  our  lot  in  life,  let’s  change  the  dynamics  of the negatives and come together as one voice, one people and one nation. Join with me in restoring our kingdom.

I continue to sound the kahea to unite as one voice, one people and one nation. Come together under the  flag  of  our  Ali’i  Nui  Mo’i  Keli’i  (Edmund  K.  Silva  Jr.)  He  will  lead  us  to  victory.    For  I  have  heard  Akua  and  Akua  is  faithful.    Blessed  be  the  name  of  Akua  and  blessings  to  our  Mo’i  and,  our  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i  Nei.

Royal Proclamation

First Citizen

Ka Po`e O Ke Aupuni To the people of the Kingdom, On  April  22,  2015,  I  issued  a  reminder  that  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i  is  restored  as  an  independent  nation within the community of nations. http://kingdomofhawaii.info/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Reaffirmation-of-Independence.pdf On that same day, I received a message from Mikahala Roy in which she stated: “Please add my name to the list of the official members of the Kingdom of Hawai`i Nou Ke Akua Ke Aupuni Hawai`i.” She continued: “Mililani  i  ke  Akua! Praise Divine Creator and praise the long-standing and consistent efforts of Ali`i Nui Mō'i Edmund K. Silva, Jr. and all faithfuls of Nou Ke Akua Ke Aupuni Hawai`i. This day, by the declaration made by Ali`i Nui Mō'i, I confirm my true nation to be the Kingdom of Hawai`i. I acknowledge Akua's miracle for po'e 'Oiwi taking place and do not hesitate to join in support of the proclamation made this day by Ali`i Nui Mō'i Edmund K. Silva, Jr. Far more than the Spiritual Reach for Harmony, here is the lifeline provided to members of the Kingdom of Hawai`i ultimately for the good of the world. In the ANPRM hearings conducted in 2014 in Hawai`i, the testimony I gave reflected the Guidance of Spirit I received.

The  United  Nations  Charter  provides  the  rest  of  the  authority  to  do  it.”  An autonomous independent sovereign nation-state contemplated under Article 1 of the 1933 Montevideo Convention on Rights and Duties of States requiring the state as a person of international law possessing the four qualifications of (a) a permanent population, (b) a defined territory, c) government; and (d) capacity to enter into relations with the other states.

The essence of statement is: The Ancestors of Hawai`i who proceed from Akua Manamanaloa hold the spiritual unity of 'Oiwi and support the restoration of the Kingdom of Hawaii led by Ali`i Nui Mō'i Edmund K. Silva, Jr. Aloha Ke Akua” I have this day accepted the request of Mikahala Roy to be a citizen of the Kingdom and bestow  upon  her  the  honorary  title  “First  Citizen.” In bestowing this title, I am making clear that what I am putting in place is a constitutional monarchy. In such a government, the Crown is separate from the citizens, who elect their representatives. It is important to take notice that the Kingdom continued to exist, even though the government was overthrown and the rights of citizenship taken away. Rebuilding the government required laying a foundation. The Kingdom Government cannot exist without a King because there is no duly appointed regent deriving authority from an existing government. The Kingdom government was restored when I agreed to serve as hereditary King. With the authority of the Crown as its foundation, the government and the constitutional system can now be rebuilt. In this process, outside of my own core staff, I have not recognized any other organization or individual as representing the Kingdom. I remind everyone that long ago I said that if there was another person qualified to be King or Queen, who was ready to pledge his or her life to the restoration of our nation, malama the people, and provide leadership toward a better future, I would be happy to step aside and go fishing. To date, I have stepped forward as King, issued a declaration of independence, offered a vision and plan for the restored nation that many find inspirational, fended off physical attacks and slanders aimed at me personally, and provided guidance on a broad range of issues and challenges facing our nation. I have been transparent with the people, posting everything we are doing on our website at www.KingdomofHawaii.info.

The  United  Nations  Charter  provides  the  rest  of  the  authority  to  do  it.”  An autonomous independent sovereign nation-state contemplated under Article 1 of the 1933 Montevideo Convention on Rights and Duties of States requiring the state as a person of international law possessing the four qualifications of (a) a permanent population, (b) a defined territory, c) government; and (d) capacity to enter into relations with the other states.

I have yet to see anyone else step forward to put their life on the line, meet the tests of hereditary qualification, and provide a vision to which the people can aspire. I have concluded that no such person is going to step forward. I now claim the position of King without reservation. The time has come to begin enrolling citizens. I have given a great deal of thought to how we should go about rebuilding the citizen part of our government. The message from Mikahala has catalyzed my thinking. As First Citizen, Mikahala represents the rebirth of the Kingdom. We are starting anew while maintaining our long-standing linkage to our ancestors. Mikahala  has  persevered  in  her  efforts  to  protect  Kamakahonu,  the  site  of  Kamehameha  I’s  government. She represents all those who have been steadfast – ‘onipa’a  – in pursuing restoration of our nation. Kamakahonu also contained a Temple dedicated to the God Lono. Mikahala has persevered in efforts to protect that Temple. She represents all those who have been steadfast in continuing to practice the faith of our ancestors. Our new nation will take pride in all of its historical roots, including the traditional faith that will now be allowed to practice again without restriction or fear of suppression. All other faiths, religions, and spiritual practices will be equally protected. Mikahala also brings the feminine energy to the restored Kingdom. Grounded in the Hale O Papa at Pu’uhonua  O  Honaunau,  that  energy  will  balance  the  mana  flowing  to  the  Kingdom  and  its  citizens. As a practical matter, we still have some steps to complete before we can open up applications for citizenship to all those ready to join the Kingdom. We are preparing a citizenship application and the guidance for the application process. As soon as those documents are in place, I will publish a notice. We have been blessed with the sacred tasks of establishing our civilization as a model for the world, assisting our brothers and sisters everywhere to resolve their conflicts, and restoring and protecting our planet during these perilous times. As we have often said, our challenge is to bring peace and reconciliation within the Human Family and peace and reconciliation between the Human Family and the rest of the Natural World. We approach those tasks joyfully and with unshakeable determination.

Sovereign Rights Declaration

To

The United States of America, The United Nations

And all Nations throughout the Earth

We are a Sovereign Nation with an established Lawful Government.

Be it known that I, Edmund  Keli’i  Silva,  Jr.,  King  of  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i,  hereby  declare  that  the  entire archipelago and surrounding seas  of  the  archipelago  belong  to  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i;  that

International/National Constructive Notice

As the Kingdom government is restored through me, the Federal Government of the United States and all subordinate governments of the United States,  such  as  the  State  of  Hawai’i  and  County  of  Hawai’i, have no jurisdiction over me or  the  sovereign  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i.

The  United  Nations  Charter  provides  the  rest  of  the  authority  to  do  it.”  An autonomous independent sovereign nation-state contemplated under Article 1 of the 1933 Montevideo Convention on Rights and Duties of States requiring the state as a person of international law possessing the four qualifications of (a) a permanent population, (b) a defined territory, c) government; and (d) capacity to enter into relations with the other states.

The joint resolution of Congress used by the United States to pretend to annex the Kingdom was legally ineffective. One nation cannot impose its laws on another nation nor change the political status of another nation through adoption of a resolution. The United States is a foreign government occupying this Kingdom unlawfully. Our national government was overthrown by the United States under duress and threat of life and liberty to her Royal  Majesty  Queen  Lili’uokalani.    Historical  records  show  that  she yielded her throne only temporarily to prevent loss of American and Kanaka Maoli life and with full expectation that the United States would restore her to her throne. The overthrow of the Kingdom government directly violated the United States law known as the Neutrality act. The Neutrality Act

18 USC § 960 - Expedition against friendly nation

Whoever, within the United States, knowingly begins or sets on foot or provides or prepares a means for or furnishes the money for, or takes part in, any military or naval expedition or enterprise to be carried on from thence against the territory or dominion of any foreign prince or state, or of any colony, district, or people with whom the United States is at peace, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

This law makes it a crime for a citizen of the United States to engage in any military or naval expedition against a nation at peace with the United States. In  1893,  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i  and  the  United  States  had  treaties in effect pledging, among other things, friendship and peace. A treaty in 1826 addressed friendship, commerce, and navigation. A treaty in 1849 also affirmed friendship. A treaty in 1875 established reciprocity in trade. In 1893, the Kingdom and the United States were definitely at peace. Unquestionably,  the  actions  taken  by  the  group  that  overthrew  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i  government  constituted military action. Those actions were supported by Marines landed in Honolulu Harbor. Marines are within the United States Department of the Navy. The Marines acted under orders from the United States Minister, who did not have authorization to commit an act of war against the Kingdom. The Minister acted as a co-conspirator in the overthrow. The overthrow of the Kingdom government was, therefore, both a military and a naval expedition conducted in violation of the Neutrality Act.

The purpose of the overthrow was ultimately to have the Hawaiian Islands annexed to the United States. The United States Minister acted in support of that illegal goal. The private citizens involved in the overthrow, including most of the leadership, were United States citizens. Their participation in the overthrow violated the Neutrality Act. Had the law been enforced, these citizens would have been prosecuted and imprisoned. The United States Minister would also have faced criminal prosecution. Instead,  those  seeking  to  destroy  the  Kingdom  and  annex  Hawai’i  to  the  United  States  formed  the  Provisional Government and proceeded to take control of the Kingdom government and lands. The United States Minister immediately recognized the illegal government, thereby furthering the conspiracy. We need go no further in the history to understand that the seizure of the Kingdom was an illegal act of war even pursuant to domestic United States law. For the United States to later accept the poison fruits of that crime is simply a perpetuation of the original crime. Each day, the continued occupation  of  Hawai’i  by  the  United  States  is an act in furtherance of the original conspiracy to annex the Kingdom. The United States maintained the pretense of Hawaiian independence as the Provisional Government became the Republic of Hawaii. When the Spanish-American War broke out, the United States avoided formally occupying the Kingdom, as it did lands belonging to Spain, such as Cuba and Puerto Rico, by passing a joint resolution of Congress to annex our nation. Everyone who studies that episode now understands that no treaty of annexation was ever ratified by the United States Senate and that no joint resolution by one nation can change the legal status of another. In other words, the annexation process was legally ineffective and the Kingdom still exists. Since the false annexation, the United States engaged in an extraordinary military build up in the Hawaiian Islands. While the Kingdom gave permission for a limited United States military presence prior to the overthrow, the United States military has dramatically expanded its military presence without Kingdom permission. The heavy military presence means that our nation is now essentially occupied by the United States. Neither the false annexation nor the unauthorized military expansion gives any legitimacy to the United State Federal Government or any of its subordinate governments. The United States admitted as such when, in 1945, the United States entered  Hawai’i  on  the  United  Nations list of non-self governing nations.

The United States later tried to undo that listing by holding a statehood election that excluded restored independence as an option. That the United Nations allowed the United States to remove our nation from that list is shameful. Nor can the United States levy taxes on any funds coming to me or the Kingdom. Taxation constitutes the occupying power taking property belonging to citizens of the occupied territory and transferring ownership of that property to the occupying power. The United States and its subordinate governments instituted the taxation of Kingdom citizens without notice or an opportunity for hearing.

Without the guaranty of 'due process' the right of private property cannot be said to exist, in the sense in which it is known to our laws. The principle, known to the common law before Magna Charta, was embodied in that Charter (2 Coke, Inst. 45, 50), and has been recognized since the Revolution as among the safest foundations of our institutions. Whatever else may be uncertain about the definition of the term 'due process of law,' all authorities agree that it inhibits the taking of one man's property and giving it to another, contrary to settled usages and modes of procedure, and without notice or an opportunity for a hearing.

Ochoa v. Hernandez y Morales, 230 U.S. 139, 161 (1913). Taxes being paid to the occupying nation are not lawfully applicable to me, my subjects, citizens, nobles and royal Household. I further repeat that the Federal Government of the United States has No jurisdiction upon my Kingdom, me, members of the Royal Family, Citizens, subjects and nobles. Therefore, I, Edmund Keli’i  Silva, Jr. HRM as the rightful heir and ruler of the Hawaiian Archipelago and the Hawaiian Kingdom do hereby present and confirm my Sovereign Rights Declaration. This document supersedes any  organizational  claim  of  any  Foreign  Country  or  De  Facto  state’s  claims  of  jurisdiction. The common-law rights of my Kingdom according to the Compiled Laws of the Hawaiian Kingdom guarantee myself as the Sovereign Ruler. They are both superior and senior to any contrary claim of Mosaic Law, Roman Canon Law, Foreign statutes or foreign regulations. All Economic resources pertaining to my Kingdom to include but not limited to Financial Funding, Agriculture, Technology, and all Natural and Human resources remain under the sole jurisdiction of my command and order. They are hereby declared free from United States taxes on income, payroll, property, sales, capital gains, dividends, imports, estates and gifts, as well as various fees i.e. foreign tax, duty or tariff.

Aloha Kakou, The International Court of public opinion has spoken. From across the globe many have come together in unity to protect Mauna Kea (Original name Mauna a Wakea) and all sacred lands even the Archipelago  of  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i.     On April 2, 2015, I ordered a Cease and Desist on all operations related to construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope upon our sacred Mauka, Mauna Kea. On April 3, 2015, I issued another letter titled – “Sometimes the simplest truths are the most profound.” And then, on April 4, 2015, I sent a personal letter to President David Lassner of the University of Hawai’i  Manoa. These letters are accessible in the Protecting the Sacred Mountain section of the Kingdom website at www.KingdomofHawaii.info/. This instant letter is to inform you that I am monitoring all events surrounding Mauna Kea, our Iwi Kupuna’s,  all sacred sites and Crown and Kuleana lands throughout our Archipelago. Should my Orders be ignored a Contempt of the Crown Citation will be issued. Then, a formal letter from my office will be sent to the United Nations invoking my lawful rights under the laws of nations. I will be bringing charges against  the  United  States  of  America  and  the  State  of  Hawai’i for unlawful acts against the Crown, its people and the illegal overthrow of the kingdom. The United States of America and the  State  of  Hawai’i  must then show  proof  that  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i  was  conveyed over to them lawfully. This they cannot do. The New Lands Resolution, annexation, and Statehood into the Union as the 50th State of America, fraudulently conveyed our nation to a foreign power. The International  Court  of  Justice  is  the  primary  judicial  branch  of  the  United  Nations.    The  court’s  base of operation is in the Peace Palace located in The Hague, The Netherlands. The main function of the court is to settle legal disputes submitted by member states and to provide advisory opinions on legal questions submitted by international branches, agencies, and the United Nations General Assembly.

Although the International Court of Justice is in Europe, it is my Kuleana to have the court convened here on Sovereign Kingdom soil. It is my further Kuleana that it be held at Kamakahonu, the residence  of  Kamehameha  I,  and  the  first  ancient  Capital  of  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i  located  in  Kailua-Kona  on  Hawaiʻi  Island,  and not Lahaina, on the Island of Maui, where King Kamehameha III established the government from 1820 to 1845. “Ku  kilakila  ‘o  Kamehameha,  home  ho‘ona‘auao.” (Kamehameha stands majestically, the seat of knowledge.) King Kamehameha the Great was truly guided by the ancestors when he created the Kānāwai  Māmalahoe  law  in  1797. Kānāwai  Māmalahoe : E  nā  kānaka, E  mālama  ‘oukou  i  ke  akua A  e  mālama  ho‘i  ke  kanaka  nui  a  me  kanaka  iki; E  hele  ka  ‘elemakule,  ka  luahine,  a  me  ke  kama A moe i ke ala ‘A‘ohe  mea  nāna  e  ho‘opilikia.  Hewa  nō,  make.  

Law of the Splintered Paddle. Oh people, honor thy god; respect alike the rights of all people both great and humble; May everyone, from the old men and women to the children be free to go forth and

lie in the road i.e. by the roadside or pathway without fear of harm. Break this law, and die.

As King, I am revising this law issued by my ancestor. The revised law:

Law of the Splintered Paddle; Oh people, honor thy god; respect alike the rights of all people both

great and humble; May everyone, from the old men and women to the children be free to go forth and lie in the road, i.e. by the roadside or pathway without fear of harm, except for those who would use

the  road  to  engage  in  actions  harmful  to  the  ‘aina or desecrating a sacred site, whom everyone has an obligation to prevent.

By this divine law, all constructions upon Mauna Kea Shall Cease. And, all Telescopes will be forever removed from our sacred mountain. The law prior to my amendent is enshrined in the occupied state Constitution, Article 9, Section 10, and has become a model for modern human rights law regarding the treatment of civilians and other non-combatants.  Kānāwai  Māmalahoe  has  been  applied to Hawaiian rights, elder law, children's rights, homeless advocacy, and bicyclist safety.

It also appears as a symbol of crossed paddles in the center of the badge of the Honolulu Police

Department. Therefore, the State of Hawai’i  law  enforcement  units  have the moral, ethical and legal

obligation to protect the rights of the people – under the Kānāwai  Māmalahoe. By my actions this

day, the law has a new application that is equally compelled – the prevention of passage to prevent

harm.

Like any nation upon the earth, there will be challenges and adversities that will come up. What

separates us from the rest of the world is our  spirit  of  ‘Aloha’.    Aloha  has  taught  us  that  as  Kanaka  Maoli, we have a bond of love that will never break and a love that will never be lost. When we

exchange Ha (breath), shake hands, or hug each other, we see no wrongs, therefore, there is no sin.

All we see is forgiveness and love for each other. This is the Hawaiian way that was in the

beginning and is now.

I  issued  “The  Right  to  Self  Determination”  on  June  23,  2003.      You  can  review  this  document  in  the  Independence Documents section of the Kingdom website.

http://kingdomofhawaii.info/documents/.

This  document  pronounced  the  reestablishment  of  the  Kingdom  of  Hawai’i  as  an  independent  nation. From that day forward,  the  reality  of  the  Kingdom’s  political  existence  began  to  shift  towards independence. We have seen the effort by those who would extinguish the Kingdom and

replace  it  with  the  equivalent  of  a  Native  American  reservation  for  “Native  Hawaiians.”  That effort

failed.

We have seen the United States Departments of Interior and Justice send representatives to the

islands to ask what form of subservience would be acceptable. That effort also failed, as hundreds

of people appeared at the hearings to reclaim their nation and invite the occupying power to go

home.

More and more, the discussion shifted away from the bankrupt idea of nation-within-a-nation to

restoration of the nation.

For the past twelve years, I have worked diligently to build our nation. I provided a vision and plan

for the restored nation. I exposed the corruption of the governmental agencies, organizations, and

individuals acting on behalf of the occupying power. I have stood with the practitioners of the

traditional faith as they emerged from suppression to reclaim their right to practice. The record of

my actions can be seen in the documents posted on the Kingdom website at

www.KingdomofHawaii.info.

Because Kamehameha ‘Ai Lu’au, King of Maui Kingdom, represented the highest and greatest birthright in all Hawai’i Nei, his record had been threatening to some of the Kamehameha I (the Great) dynasty in power at that time. His lineage

is also popularly known as that of King Kekaulike, the King of Maui and the father of Kamehameha Nui ‘Ai Lu’au. Maui Kingdom was ancient Hawai’i’s most powerful and significant Kingdom. It comprised the most Divine Royal Lineage whose origins derived from the most ancient birthrights from Oahu and Kauai. His genealogical record was that

ancient oral chant kept and added upon, throughout the millennia and through the voyages of his ancestors into the

Pacific to settle the uninhabited islands.

His sacred lineage was kept by specific priesthood holders and solemnly recited in Royal Courts of the Kingdoms of Maui,

Hawai’i, Oahu and Kauai. The ‘ohana - family record - was put into writing by the royal genealogist Hoku Pakipika,

shortly after the birth of the sacred High Chiefs of highest rank, Kapahupinea-Kaleikoa-Keopuhiwa-Paki, on February

14, 1871 in order to protect Hawai’i’s highest royal birthright.

At that time, Kamehameha V was Hawai’i’s king and the last of the Kamehameha I dynasty which was of lower lineage to Kamehameha Nui ‘Ai Lu’au. The two royal heirs of Kamehameha I had additional lineage to the High Chiefs Kalola,

daughter of King Kekaulike, but the mere younger sister of King Kamehameha Nui ‘Ai Lu’au.

King Kamehameha V, grandson of Kamehameha I, died on December 11, 1872 and was the last of the Kamehameha

dynasty. There was political turmoil as Kamehameha V did not appoint a successor to his throne. Lunalilo, a grand-

nephew of Kamehameha I, was elected king but died about a year later on January 8, 1873. On February 13, 1873,

Kalakaua was elected king. Kalakaua claimed his highest vestments through High Chief Iwikauikaua. Iwikauikaua was

the great-grandson of Keli’iokaloa, eldest son of Umi-a-Liloa.

However, Keli’iokaloa was an unrighteous king that was killed and his kingdom and birthright taken by his younger brother, Keawenui-a-Umi. Kalakaua’s royal pedigree then is mired in the intermarriages among Big Island chieftains all of lower lineage compared to the blue-blood of Kamehameha Nui ‘Ai Lu’au.

King Kalakaua intended to avoid future legislative elections of kings by appointing a long line of successors to which

included his three siblings and three nephews of his wife, Queen Consort Kapiolani. One nephew was David

Kawananakoa whose pedigree claimed Hawai’i’s highest lineage, Kaumualii, King of Kauai as well as cousin relationship to the Kamehameha I Big Island chieftains. We note that Kaumualii was a grandson of King Kekaulike

through a lesser marriage.

Kekaulike joined with Holau, the 3rd great granddaughter of Umi-a-Liloa, and had a son, Ka’eokulani. Ka’eokulani joined with Queen Kamakahelei who ruled Kauai Kingdom at the time Captain Cook first arrived. Their son was King

Kaumualii. Comparatively, King Kekaulike’s highest marriage was to his half-sister, Kekuiapoiwanui, from which was

born his heir, King Kamehameha Nui ‘Ai Lu’au. The resulting Kawananakoa line comes from a much lower lineage

comparative to Kamehameha Nui ‘Ai Lu’au. Although the Kawananakoa line had never come to rule in any way, there

were fears over threats of assassination upon the child heir of the Kamehameha Nui ‘Ai Lu’au line, Kapahupinea Kaleikoa Keopuhiwa Paki.

The United Nations Charter provides the rest of the authority to do  it.”  An autonomous independent sovereign nation-state contemplated under Article 1 of the 1933 Montevideo Convention on Rights and Duties of States requiring the state as a person of international law possessing the four qualifications of (a) a permanent population, (b) a defined territory, c) government; and (d) capacity to enter into relations with the other states.

This High Princess was protected by a Chinese merchant whose cultural covenants to protect Hawai’i’s royal lines predates the 15th century Hawai’i. “The genealogical records of His Royal Majesty Edmund K. Silva, Jr. whose sacred name is -- Nalikolauokalani- Ke’alohilanikikaupe’aokalani-kapahupinea-kaleikoa-keopuhiwa-Paki are much involved and indisputable. “ End of royal protocol. Aloha Kakou Trustees of Hawaiian Affairs, Being Trustees cannot be easy for you, especially when you know the history of how our Islands and all its sacred sites were stolen from us and  our  beloved  monarch  Queen  Lili’uokalani  of  the  19th Century,  who’s  DNA  I  share.    For  in  all  truth  she  was  my  blood  cousin,  which  is  indisputable.  Our  blood connection is traced back through time and eternity. I am King. And, you, as Trustees of a nation stolen, cannot continue to ignore the ancestors and their living heirs, refusing to acknowledge that Mauna a Wākea is sacred. You represent the interest of the citizens of the United States and not our people nor these islands. Shakespeare Iago: “Who steals my purse steals trash; 'tis something, nothing; 'Twas mine, 'tis his, and has been slave to thousands; But he that filches from me my good name Robs me of that which not enriches him, And makes me poor indeed.” To be a trustee of OHA was, to many, a good thing. It brought hope and a sense of pride that Kanakas would work and fight hard for our sacred lands, traditions and culture. But auwe, the opposite is true. The  infractions  you’ve  purposefully committed are too many to cite here in this letter. Each carries a penalty of treason against the Crown, the ancestors, us all. Each of you has brought shame, dishonor and humiliation to your self. The path you have set will bring the downfall of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs. The attempt to build a huge telescope on Mauna Kea raises a number of key issues. Two of the most important are sovereignty and faith. The lands in question are Crown lands seized illegally and fraudulently transferred to the State of Hawai’i.    Neither  the  State  of  Hawai’i  agencies  nor  institutions  funded  by  the  State  of  Hawai’i  have  any legitimate authority over that land. As the Apology Resolution acknowledged:

The United Nations Charter provides the rest of the authority to do  it.”  An autonomous independent sovereign nation-state contemplated under Article 1 of the 1933 Montevideo Convention on Rights and Duties of States requiring the state as a person of international law possessing the four qualifications of (a) a permanent population, (b) a defined territory, c) government; and (d) capacity to enter into relations with the other states.

the indigenous Hawaiian people never directly relinquished their claims to their inherent

sovereignty as a people or over their national lands to the United States, either through

their monarchy or through a plebiscite or referendum

That finding is a simple statement of fact that must inform any discussion that touches upon the

sovereignty of our people or the ownership of our national lands.

In the faith that served as the foundation of the Hawaiian civilization, Mauna Kea is considered

sacred, with the peak dedicated as the Realm of the Gods. Human intrusion into that realm was

rare and minimal. The construction of massive structures on the sacred peak violates the protocols

of the traditional religion and should never have been permitted.

The protection of Mauna Kea raises the larger issue of the historical suppression of the traditional

faith, of which the disrespect for the sacred mountain is only the latest example.

From the Office of Hawaiian Affairs Website – April 11, 2015

The Office of Hawaiian Affairs Board of Trustees met on April 10 during which the matter of

Mauna Kea and the planned thirty-meter telescope (TMT) was discussed. The Board plans

to gain greater clarity on the pending legal cases relating to the TMT project. The Board will

also review  OHA’s  past  positions  on  these  cases.  With  that  information,  the  Board  will  consider its position on the matter at an upcoming board meeting.

During the past week, OHA leaders have also been in discussions with state decision

makers. In these talks, OHA leaders have emphasized the need for all parties to address the

unresolved legal matters while the TMT construction moratorium remains in place.

A state agency will discuss the application of State laws to a State-supported project with other

State agencies and institutions. Of what relevance is that discussion to the Kingdom or the

practitioners of the traditional faith? Will OHA really make their decision based solely on their view

of the laws enacted by the belligerent occupier?

What stance has OHA taken  on  who  should  be  participating  in  the  discussions?    What  does  “all  parties”  mean  to  OHA?    

Has OHA insisted on participation by those dedicated to restoring the nation into full independence,

such as myself? Has OHA insisted on the participation of the traditional practitioners to provide an

understanding of the spiritual issues?

To  my  knowledge,  the  answer  to  both  of  those  questions  is  “no.”    In  what  might  appear  as  a  paradox, the failure of the discussions to include those supporting restoration of the Kingdom and those asserting the right of the traditional faith to be respected and allowed to practice actually constitutes acknowledgement. All parties are aware of the Kingdom restored and the emergence of the traditional practitioners from suppression. Refusing to acknowledge what is obvious demonstrates an awareness that OHA and the other creatures spawned by the overthrow cannot stand in the light of truth.

Will OHA refuse to recognize the uprising taking place within the community and hide behind self-imposed delay? Will OHA formally remain silent until its next Board meeting on April 23rd while more people are arrested?

OHA is fine with spending millions of dollars to herd "Native Hawaiians" on to a reservation, spending nothing to promote independence, and then failing to pay the bail of those defending the sacred lands that OHA failed to even try to protect.

You knew that this day would come when your agency would finally have to decide between the truth of occupation and the acceptance of subservience. You can no longer pretend to straddle the fence  or  to  speak  for  the  interests  of  the  Hawaiian  people.    So  which  will  it  be:    “Yes,  Master”  or  “Ku’e.”    Your  choice  is  clearly  before  you.

As you know from my previous communications to you, I am keeping track of your crimes against the Kingdom. A day of reckoning will be coming soon. You still have time to oki the cord to the occupier and join the people in asserting their independence.

What should OHA do? First of all, the group engaged in the discussion needs to be broadened to include the Kingdom and the traditional practitioners. Second, as I noted to the Governor:

The astronomers selected Mauna Kea from a group of potential sites. The northern hemisphere alternative to Mauna Kea is Sierra San Pedro Martir, the location of the Mexican National Astronomy Observatory and other smaller telescopes. You could encourage the astronomers to relocate the Thirty Meter Telescope to that site.
