Looking out across the landscape of the sovereignty movement,
one simple truth has become clear to me the final phase of
restoration has begun. The public awareness that Hawaii was never
legally annexed, the exposure of the OHA/Roll Commission/Danner
shenanigans, and the outpouring of support for the Kingdom at the
Department of Interior hearings are all symptoms of the great
change that is about to come. There is only one missing piece
unification of Kingdom supporters. That vision of completion led me
to prepare the following message.
Brutus: There is a tide in the affairs of men. Which, taken at
the flood, leads on to fortune; Omitted, all the voyage of their
life Is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are
we now afloat, And we must take the current when it serves, Or lose
our ventures.
Julius Caesar Act 4, scene 3, 218224
For those truly interested in seeing the Kingdom restored, the
time has come to acknowledge the existing situation and to unify.
Not to do so risks losing the opportunity presented to us.
The existing situation is that there are various groups and
individuals pursuing different pathways. While this diversity
served us well in the past, that very diversity is now an obstacle
to completing our mission
The Kingdom needs to unite behind its King. We can look back
over the past six or seven years and see a handful of people that
offered to be King or Queen. Almost all of them have then gone on
to discredit themselves or withdrawn from the field. Today, there
is only one monarch on the field Alii Nui Mi Edmund Kelii Silva,
Jr. whose Hawaiian name is
Kealohilanikikaupeaokalani-kapahupinea-kaleikoa-keopuhiwa-Paki.
He has been through the fires of persecution and emerged
stronger and wiser. Neither false imprisonment nor the covert
operations run against him while in prison could deter him from
pursuing what he understood to be a sacred calling to restore his
nation.

He has put forth a vision and a plan for the restored Kingdom.
See the document Vision and Plan found in the Read The Kingdoms
Documents section of the Kingdoms website at
www.KingdomofHawaii.info
He has called upon any other claimant to step forward and
offered to stand aside should that claimant offer a superior
alternative. No one responded to his challenge.
He has pulled back the curtain on those who pretend to serve the
interests of Hawaiians, while doing the bidding of the occupying
power. He has spoken out forcefully against the
nation-within-a-nation proposal as a betrayal of the ancestors Kue
and the kuleana created by that Kue for those who have come
afterwards.
He has reached out to the nations of the world, who had treaties
with the Kingdom, and offered them the opportunity to reanimate the
agreements that they allowed to be violated and to renew diplomatic
relations.
Look around. There is no one that comes close to providing what
he has provided for the Kingdom.
The time has come for those who put themselves forward as
leaders to acknowledge that the Kingdom needs a King and that Alii
Nui Mi Edmund Kelii Silva, Jr. stands out as the one who best
fulfills that function.
The Kingdom also needs the restoration campaign to be a
coordinated effort pursuing a coherent policy. Future
communications with the occupying power or any other foreign
government should come through the King. Addressing international
bodies or institutions should be a coordinated effort of the
Kingdom. Issues of law should be brought to the King for discussion
with the Royal Judiciary. Otherwise, we give the impression that
there is no real leadership, only isolated groups addressing
isolated topics with limited application.
The occupying power is in partial disarray precisely because
those supporting restoration have done their work. Now is the time
to solidify those gains and prepare for the final push to
independence. The King is the one uniquely situated to provide the
leadership that will achieve that goal.
The question is not really whether the King should be accepted
by all the people. The question is whether the people are ready to
be represented by a true King. You can pledge your support by
sending me an email that simply says Yes.
[email protected].
We will provide the public with a complete report on who among
those who profess to support restoration of the Kingdom have joined
with the King for a united effort and on those who do not.

So what about it Mililani Trask, Dexter Kaiama, Keanu Sai, Bumpy
Kanahele, Professor Williamson Chang, Henry Noa, and all you others
who call for restoration/deoccupation?
Do you agree that now is the time to have a King in place? That
King Edmund has shown the qualities of courage, steadfastness,
leadership, compassion, and vision that the Kingdom needs? That
King Edmund is the only one stepping up to truly fulfill the
kuleana of King? That he has gifted the Kingdom and the world with
a vision and plan that addresses the real challenges we face on
this planet? If you agree, then let me know so we can join
forces.
Mahalo nui loa.
