My highlights are below. Note that the King’s 7-30-15 proposal to Governor Ige for resolution of the Mauna Kea situation is posted here.
“The controversy that erupted around the proposed Thirty Meter Telescope on sacred Mauna a Wākea raised profound issues calling for the highest leadership response. Instead, you have resorted to official violence by continuing to pursue meaningless and illegal arrests of the Protectors of the Mountain.
“On… August 27, the Hawai’i Supreme Court heard oral argument in a case that challenges the permit granted by the Board of Land and Natural Resources to the Thirty Meter Telescope on Mauna a Wākea…. Given the tenor and substance of the Justices’ questions, the only reasonable conclusion is that the Court is going to find the BLNR process to be constitutionally and legally unacceptable.
“Actually, your ordering further arrests after it became clear at the Supreme Court that the TMT is doomed tells me that you understand very well what to expect from the Court. In an effort to mitigate the political damage that an adverse ruling will cause to you and the other State actors involved in the illegal granting of the permit and the subsequent disgraceful suppression of peaceful opposition to the TMT, you now seek to create a gratuitous confrontation with me.
“Your prayer is that I send the Kingdom Marshals to protect those conducting the 24 hour vigil on the Mountain. You can then send DLNR enforcement agents or the National Guard to challenge my Marshals and hope for escalation to violence… [in order to] misdirect public attention away from your leadership failures and the bogus process conducted to give TMT their permit towards some supposed threat posed by me.
“…there is no need for me to send the Kingdom Marshals to the Mountain. The Protectors of the Mountain have already won. Their win is not just legal. They remained in kapu aloha and now have the support and love of people all over the world. You, on the other hand, are still choosing to follow the bankrupt policies that produced the TMT fiasco.”

[Note: the resolution proposal sent to Governor Ige on 7-30-15 may be viewed here.]
Ali`i Mana`o Nui Lanny Sinkin: Early this morning [9-9-15], enforcement officers from the Department of Land and Natural Resources arrested eight people on Mauna a Wakea. Those arrested were present on the Mountain as part of the 24 hour vigil being conducted by the Protectors of the Mountain.
The King perceives those arrests as an attempt to provoke a confrontation between the King’s Marshals and State of Hawaii law enforcement.
The King also perceives the August 27 oral argument before the Hawaii Supreme Court as indicating quite clearly that the Court is going to find that the process by which the Board of Land and Natural Resources granted the TMT permit violated the constitutional rights of those opposed to the permit. The Protectors of the Mountain have won, so the Governor and his co-conspirators are trying to foment unrest to misdirect public attention from the failures of leadership producing the TMT fiasco.
The King sent the attached letter to the Governor today.
