Aruba and the AHATA Suing Greta Van Susteren for Slanderous Statements about Aruban Tourism & Natalee Holloway Investigation

 

ARUBA … STUCK ON STUPID

ARUBA SUING GRETA VAN SUSTEREN AND OTHER MEDIA OUTLETS FOR SLANDEROUS ABOUT ARUBAN TOURISM INDUSTRY AND THE NATALEE HOLLOWAY INVESTIGATION.

“They are threatening to bring legal proceedings if we don’t stop our false and misleading and malicious rhetoric.”

Greta Van Susteren’s response to the idiotic and nonsensical letter from an American attorney threatening the law suit was … BRING IT ON”.

Greta says, “bring it on, sue me please, I want to get all these people under oath, I would love it”.  The panel jokes, but Greta reinforces she wants them to sue her.  She could depose police, it would be a field day.  Panel member says this was about as well thought out as the investigation was.

In what can only be just another example of the ridiculous, pathetic and inept conduct that Aruba has provided to the world as they have dealt with the disappearance and investigation of Natalee Holloway, Aruba continues to be stuck on stupid. So Aruba and the AHATA wants to sue people for their First Amendment Rights? Aruba, you may be a Banana Republic where people are afraid to voice their opinions and discuss the truth for fear of reprisal. In America … WE THE PEOPLE are not.

How ignorant could these Aruban officials continue to be and the AHATA? They are spending money to threaten law suits against the American media, who will in turn provide Aruba with some of the worst PR imaginable. WHO DO THESE PEOPLE CONSULT WITH?

UPDATE I: Excerpts from Greta’s On the Record with some of the most comical responses from Greta and her panel in what only shows how much of a joke that Aruba has made of such a serious situation as a missing and presumed deceased, Natalee Holloway.

The first thing we need to do if file something against this ignorant, incompetent lawyer who would send a letter. You cannot defame and sue a country. This lawyer should have his bar card re … Even you on behalf of this company this country … get real. (Ted Williams)

My response to this Ted is “bring it on”. Will you please sue me. Sue me right now. I will waive all requirements of service. I want to get all these people under oath and depositions. Because I would love it. (Greta)

I am going to resign from the practice of law because I feel like an idiot that I even share the same membership as this guy. (Bernie Grim)

If you are sued you can talk about it even more. You know this law suit is about as well thought out as their investigation was. Or this threatened law suit. How are they going to prove damages, number 1? Damages can’t be speculative.  (Michael Cardoza)

It may now go down because he has now refreshed in the public memory that they couldn’t find Natalee Holloway in Aruba and so now he may have hurt tourism in that country by this stupid letter. (Ted Williams)

UPDATE II: It Looks Like Aruba (AHATA) Will Have to Sue Former Spokesman Steve Cohen and Joran Van der Sloot Attorney Joe Tacopina as Well

If the AHATA wants to sue media outlets in a pathetic attempt to try and silence “Freedom of Speech”, it would appear that they will have to sue former Aruban government spokesman Steve Cohen and present Joran Van der Sloot attorney Joe Tacopina. Both have also made, according to Aruba’s definition, slanderous comments against Aruban tourism and the Natalee Holloway investigation.

Watch the Court TV video from 12–23–05 with Steve Cohen, Joe Tacopina and myself. It seems that Cohen agrees with my point that they investigation was botched from the outset … how slanderous!

      my oh my
      more evidence aruba is an idiotic piece of work

      stay away from evil places

      thats my message for today

      ARUBA BLOWS

    2. mommytraveler on March 15th, 2008 9:27 am

      Without a doubt – STUCK ON STUPID. Thanks – Aruba – for bringing the Natalee Holloway case back into the media spotlight. Thought you would intimidate Greta – Well, think again. Well, maybe not – thinking doesn’t seem to fit Aruba’s persona. Gee – Scared Monkeys – did you get a letter, too? Personally, I think the blogs on the internet have done much more to spread the word about Aruba than any one television show. And to remember, Aruba’s claims that the Boycott Aruba movement has not affected their tourism, their hotel businesses, their pockets – the boycott must be working or why this letter?

    3. Richard on March 15th, 2008 9:32 am

      Who’s the attorney? Is he qualified to practice law in this country, or is he some Aruban?

      As I said on a prior thread, Aruba deserves credit.

      Every time that I say to myself: “Aruba can’t possibly do anything more stupid than it has already,” I have been proven wrong.

      Guess what, Aruba … go after the news media in this country and you’re messing with people who have the power to make or break politicians.

      Maybe, just maybe, some officials in our government might start to take an interest in the disappearance of an American citizen nearly three years ago, and in the role of elements of Aruba’s government and law enforcement in helping to orchestrate a cover-up.

      It’s possible.

      Now, what other stupid things can Aruba do? At this point, it’s virtually beyond my ability to think of them. But perhaps we’ll see….

    4. WOLF HUNTERS on March 15th, 2008 9:32 am

      they have been caught in a lie again. im shocked :)

      tourism is WAY DOWN.
      nobody sues anyone if tourism is up 8 percent
      evil evil evil

    5. Sunny on March 15th, 2008 10:25 am

      Like Greta said…BRING IT ON!!! This could actually be what could break the case WIDE open!! Come on Aruba!!! Can’t wait to see that letter in full!! ROTFLMAO

    6. Sasha on March 15th, 2008 10:41 am

      Yep, another lie. The tourism is way down and that’s why they are suing. They are frustrated. Rob Smith (the new president of AHATA) needs to get a life and focus on bigger things instead of this foolishness.

    7. Sharon Chicago on March 15th, 2008 10:53 am

      I bet Greta is so sorry she backed the sporter and now those demons have turned on her to bite her on the touche. I think this random act of threatening to Sue Fox news and other news media only works for the good of our cause to show the world that Aruba is a corrupted lieing island that covers up tourist murders and that Natalee Holloway is still missing and they do not care.

    8. brie on March 15th, 2008 10:54 am

      Who do we know that writes stupid letters, Paulus….remember the letter he said he got, that he actually created himself, from Natalee saying that she ran away. This is just as dumb!!!!

      Maybe the people of Aruba are making life very uncomfortable for the Sloots. Something is going on over there….perhaps tourism has taken a really big flop. Tee-Hee!!!!

      Wait until Beth’s book is published in Dutch, wait until Patrick’s book is released, wait until the civil suit against Joran takes place….Greta will have plenty to say….

    9. brie on March 15th, 2008 11:03 am

      In addition to the above we also have the 3 universities and their students working on Natalee’s case….even more publicity…

      Aruba go ahead with your lawsuit and Greta will turn your island upside down and she will have a lot of help!!!!!

      You should be sued for all the things you’ve said about Natalee and her family, just for beginners.

    10. Jerry from Ohio on March 15th, 2008 11:35 am

      Well Richard a very good point that the US media can and dose ruin politicians and if I may add the media can and does shape quite a lot of what people perceive what other countries are like .
      It has brought down dictators and other politicians as well .
      The NL should want to distance themselves from the WHACK JOBS that are running Aruba.
      In the future days I do believe that some of the VDS’s or others whose names go hand in hand with whole Holloway cover up and this is going to bring down their little corrupt island and all for who ?
      Joran ,Paulus , the Mud-Blood Kalpos ” Thanks JK Rowling ” , and a host of other island people that believe that they are truly “larger then life”, but in reality it is only in their own minds .
      If this didn’t involve Natalee Holloway a young american woman with so so much promise and her unjust death just to satisfy the sexual needs of a very mentally unhealthy boy and his totally dysfunctional family it may just be funny but it’s not so lets just watch this island disintagrate themselves .

      Looks like a lame attempt to shut Greta up.

      However, Greta called AHATA’s bluff and said “BRING IT!”

      Come on AHATA, go or get off the pot! Are you going to sue Greta or not?! She is waiting for you!

      LOLOLOLOLOLOL

    12. JusticeforNatalee on March 15th, 2008 12:06 pm

      Stupidity? Arrogance? Both?

    13. downloadingdaddy on March 15th, 2008 12:23 pm

      #3 Richard, In the video it stated that the lawyer was an american.

    14. brie on March 15th, 2008 12:28 pm

      It is arrogant of them to even suggest such a thing…the actions of these people are unbelievable…it’s always the same thing, blame it on someone else…pathetic….they just become more hated everyday….

      The unions want to sue the gov’t the gov’t wants to sue the unions, the principal’s are threatening the teachers, no police on duty, not that much matters anyway, firefighters on strike, customs shut down at the harbor, threats to shut down the airport and who knows what else, now threatening to sue our media for reporting the truth, AHATA your already in the crapper, so please sue so we can flush the toilet….

    15. Carpe Noctem on March 15th, 2008 12:31 pm

      I think a large part of the problem is that Aruba
      is NOT run like a business.

      Aruba is run like Joran was raised. The Dutch throw
      some money at it, and tell it to GO DO SOME THINGS…
      In hopes those will be productive THINGS, but they are not.

      The world has seen how well that method has worked
      for that gang-rapist murdering liar Joran Van der sloot.

      READ: > NOT!

      An addict, is an addict, is an addict!

      Much like Joran, ARUBA only registered to go to
      school for one day so it could get the money
      from the Queen…

      …smoke some fat blunts, fondle the do-jigger,
      and play the 2008 X-BOX equivalent of ‘FROGGER’
      all day.

      If they had to run ARUBA by P & L statements tomorrow… they’d have to shut their fat f-ing Arubian PLAYA HATIN’ cakeholes, stop screwing their relatives,and finally get back to work!

      They keep seem to be tellin’ the QUEEN they don’t
      want to do that, and she keeps giving them a STIPEND.

      WHY? They’ll only continue on with what they’re
      currently doing… because it is working…

      EVERYTIME!

      GOOD JOB MONKEYS

    20. MY THOUGH on March 15th, 2008 12:45 pm

      KLASSEND sorry I misspelled your name

    21. brie on March 15th, 2008 12:46 pm

      It did state that the lawyer is an American but they lie….sounds like something Paulus would write….or perhaps they are referring to loudmouth Taco Joe but I rather doubt that he take that on…. Greta would see to it that it would be the end of his career.

    22. brie on March 15th, 2008 12:57 pm

      Aruba also knows that Beth is in contact with Greta. The civil lawsuit against Joran is in the makings and they don’t want the media covering the story….well, that’s too bad. Are they wanting to sue the Dutch as well?

      What’s Oduber going to do, resign and take his retirement money? Just like everyone else, wouldn’t surprise me! The unions aren’t letting up on him. And tourism is probably in a world of hurt.

    23. Richard on March 15th, 2008 1:01 pm

      Brie (#14) … you say: “AHATA your already in the crapper, so please sue so we can flush the toilet…”

      At the risk of sounding crude, this reminds me of the story about the lady who for two years (so, at least, the story read) sat on the john ….

      Except that in this case it’s a whole nation there. The stench that engulfed the police who came to check her situation is nothing in comparison to the moral stench that engulfs Aruba.

      Some say that sitting on the toilet is a good time and place for contemplation. But in Aruba’s case, if it looked within, imagine what filth it would see.

      The question remains: WHO, in this country, would be so stupid as even to think about going to Aruba?

      The next question: WHY will none of our politicians who are so eager to get in power even refer to Natalee’s case?

    24. misskatie on March 15th, 2008 1:16 pm

      richard
      I agree totaly with you.. they are so stupid .. we are going to eat them alive.. no wonder greta said..bring it on..
      funny what bernie.. on gretas panel said …

    25. Don't Fall For It on March 15th, 2008 1:20 pm

      Greta and her criminal cult sues people every day. One of her techniques is to call people stupid, bully them, and “fear” them out. She is proud of suing people but when it turns around she brings out the criminal cult of scientology pundits to hold her up while she demonizes her enemy.

      Wasn’t she involved in a Ponzi Scheme awhile back and had to return money. Not much coverage. She is an attorney who knew exactly what she was doing. America wake up and see how FOX is being shaped by her “social betterment” AKA “if you are not Sicientologists you are nothing” agenda. I’m glad CNN wised up and fired her.

    26. Dihannah1 on March 15th, 2008 1:30 pm

      ROFLOL! This is the funniest thing I’ve seen since this case began! Good to finally have a good laugh out of it, though doesn’t take away from how sad the whole story really is. I”m sure Dave and Beth are even getting a much needed laugh. But I’m sure too much to hope for it ever really happening. But Hey, give ‘em credit for keeping it in the news! They did it to themselves!

      ARUBA! PLEASE SUE GRETA! PLLLEEEEAAASSSSEEE!

    27. waterboy (Jerry) on March 15th, 2008 1:33 pm

      I won’t be posting much anymore. I would like to leave with a synopsis of things I believe to be true.

      Top of the list—I believe Junior. I think he saw Joran, Paulus, and others at the landfill. I do not believe he saw the body of Natalee or anyone else, but his assumption that they were burring Natalee is a logical one. I personally believe they were searching for Natalee’s body. They may have found her. If so, she was cremated or taken to sea.

      Second, I believe Joran murdered Natalee. He beat, strangled, suffocated, drowned her, ran over her with a vehicle, or shot her. End of story as far as I ‘m concerned.

      I believe the something bad that happen to Natalee was evil incarnate in the form of Joran.

      Third, I believe Joran has murdered before. The panties that his mom saw were a souvenir, and I believe he has other items from Natalee and others hidden in a secret location, where he can view them from time to time. There may even be videos and pictures.

      Fourth, I believe Pualus’s involvement goes way beyond just a cover up. He was involved way more than just a cover up.

      Fifth, I believe Paulus has a lot of money. His spending goes far beyond the means of a two-bit lawyer, and a schoolteacher. How he gets his money is at the center of the cover-up.

      Sixth, no one will ever be prosecuted for the murder of Natalee, and she will never be found.

      Seventh, I feel at least 10 to 12 people know exactly what happen to Natalee, and who did what.

      Eighth, I feel there are no fewer that 4 deaths in the cover up. There may be as many as 10. Who is killing them would not be too hard to determine if there was any true interest in solving this case.

      Ninth, I believe the rock videos, and the plastic in the narrow open container by the road are directly linked to Natalee’s case.

      Tenth, the lighthouse, and the golf course are most intimately linked to this case.

      Joran told authorities where Natalee’s body was, but they chose to cover the truth.

      Last, we are dealing with not only incompetence but also out and out deception on the part of law enforcement.

      If you are in the neighborhood, drop by.

    29. SS on March 15th, 2008 1:45 pm

      One Crappy Island is just perpetuating their bully tactics. The sandflies just might honestly believe that their best defense is a strong offense. The Monkeys in Boston must have scared the you know what out of Rob Smith. Maybe our letters to AHATA, Holiday Inn, and all of the other businesses on that sandbar are working. We’re obviously upsetting “the higher powers”. Keep up the good work everyone. If British tourism really is up on Crappy Island, then the Brits should know better. They’re already experiencing Natalee’s tragedy with Madeleine. What’s wrong with them?

    32. Mary,UK on March 15th, 2008 2:10 pm

      Just to answer an earlier post, Natalees case has not featured in ANY media outlets in the UK but i find it impossible to believe that any significant tourism would come from the UK, However if i become aware of any promotion in the UK for tourism to ARUBA i will be ALL over it like a RASH!!!!I have followed Natalees disappearence from the beginning after coming across the case on OTR, there is not a day goes by that i dont think of her and her family and i would give my right arm so that they could find her and take her back to the US where she belongs, if only i were rich i would happily fund the search.
      Natalees story is different from Madelines, YES in both cases mistakes were made early on, however in Natalees case it is obvious that because of WHO was involved there was a cover-up, God knows how far up the food chain this went but as far as i am concerned DAMN THEM ALL, I HOPE THEY ALL ROT IN HELL!!!!!!SUE ME!!!!!!!!

    33. misskatie on March 15th, 2008 2:24 pm

      brie
      to …ARUBA… we are like a big nightmare that wont go away.. AND THEY ARE SO RIGHT..
      they keep adding fuel to the fire.

      brie
      have you heard anything else about the sloots having to leave fantasy island
      I am still laughing at those blundering idiots… and their kangeroo court mentality.
      I am kinda glad they are doing this.. no im not only kinda glad.. im over joyed
      reason being .. they are helping our cause.. to get the true story out about aruba and what they do to americans that go to their island.
      im sure natalee isnt an isolated incident..and not the only victim who fell prey to joran and pauulus and other bad evil people on the island.. they were able to hide things in the past ..
      the reason for so much publicity on nataleee. credit goes to a mother and father who wouldnt give up…….
      they wouldnt give up the cause to find her remains.
      and for greta and nancy and most of all all you scared monkey for keeping the blogs updated.. to the many people from scared monkeys…that took time to go to the tourist shows… and boycott. you are true troopers..
      I am wondering if pauulus and his sloot family are begining to feel the heat!!! they are probably!!! thinking that this is getting way out of control and they may began to realize this is going to expose the real truth.. this is going to cook their goose.. there will be no place for them to hide.. If pauulus wrote that letter.. he just did himself in..I think now the truth will come to light. they may have to escort his family off the island.. or one of pauulus partners in crime.. will do joran in.. to make this all go away….

      HI me again, just a thought, cant the Holloway family request a government official approach The Hague about an investigation into the conduct of officials in Aruba, in my opinion Natalee and her family were denied their basic human wright to justice?????

    36. kiltie65 on March 15th, 2008 2:45 pm

      If they think publicity is bad now, wait until May 30th…the 3rd anniversary of Natalee’s “disappearance” and the news networks all give us updates. And then again in September when Patrick’s book comes out. Hope Aruba gets inundated with bad press. If tourism is up 8%, I bet it’s because “travelers on the cheap” are taking advantage of “comped” rooms and services…so Aruba is not making much, if any, profit. Too many people are involved in this for this to go away…someone eventually is gonna’ blab, other than Joran!

      What an assassin thing to say….tourism is increasing…tourism is decreasing and your gov’t and tourism reports won’t give you the correct numbers…your economy sucks….your island is poor…your way over your head in debt and the Dutch are ready to dump you!!!! Your broke!!!! People can do some pretty bad things when their jobs are gone, no food on the table, no money in their pockets and no promise for the future……only the scavengers are going to live there!!!!! Crime increases….!!!!!

    50. brie on March 15th, 2008 4:40 pm

      Is the Queen Bea the same thing as in an ant colony….you never see her?

      I cannot believe the woman remains silent….her ABC islands are the pits and just suck money. I don’t even believe how she would allow public sex in the parks….bad environment for the dogs!!!!!

      Greta and her criminal cult sues people every day. One of her techniques is to call people stupid, bully them, and “fear” them out. She is proud of suing people

      —-

      …or that very well could have come from the Pres. of AHATA!!! These people are truly idiots! One only has to look at their gameplan to counterbalance the effects of Natalee Holloway’s rape & murder case to divine that.

      —-

      1. Greta always gave the ARUBIANS plenty
      of common courtesy to let them do themselves
      in, and they pounced at every opportunity.

      2. Greta’s belief system has nothing to do with it.

      3. Greta loves to sue people? Aruba is
      threatening to SUE HER! Aruba is the
      place to be for those who like to bully, threaten,
      & intimidate through ‘FEAR.’

      4. Greta will
      eat you Arubian dumb a$$e$ for lunch, and then
      slice and dice you at the end of the day on
      ON THE RECORD & GRETAWIRE.

      BY THE TIME GRETA IS DONE WITH YA,

      EVEN YOUR OWN

      F-ING DOG AIN’T GONNA WANNA

      “HANG OUT WITH YA.”

      SCREW ARUBA!

      CHAVEZ BLOW THAT $H1T UP, PLEASE!!!!

      UP 8 PERCENT, MY HIND QUARTERS!!!

      THEN WHY R U SUING?

      MORONS.

      BRING IT ON!

    53. kayjay on March 15th, 2008 5:11 pm

      Any word on whether Beth will bring a civil suit?

      IMO the Queen is just a figurehead and really doesn’t have much say in the affairs of State, very much like Queen Elizabeth. These royals tend to stay out of controversial issues probably because they like it that way….pomp, circumstance and living off the public trough! When I wrote to her, her PA replied stating my letter had been forwarded to PM in Aruba. I can guess where it went!!

    56. RM on March 15th, 2008 5:57 pm

      No news on the civil suit. Beth’ lawyer said he wanted to tread very, very carefully because he didn’t want her to get hurt again.

      27 Waterboy: Item 10 You forgot the restaurant.
      I know what you mean. Sometimes its is draining. I have been off so I can do more research. Your leaving just when things on my end are warming up concerning the light house. I have mixed emotions concening psychics. However the three I know that do not know each other; all say something bad DID happen when Natalee was brought to the lighthouse. Or at least the light house area is the focal point.
      One has even given some rather graphic details that if they are true then this psychic has spoken to Natalee’s spirit.
      All three stories are close enough to seemed to have been written by the same person; yet I know differently.
      I have not crossed over; I merely have stepped outside the circle.
      Keep in touch; you have been very interesting.

    62. always 1 on March 15th, 2008 7:57 pm

      Oreally, 61, I didnt know there were others who believe in the lighhouse theory…I have researched every thing I can find because of my vision that NH is buried under the lighthouse steps or in the tunnel leading to the house the light keeper used to live in…..if you look up picture of light station of aruba you will see it…NOT in the water……

    63. misskatie on March 15th, 2008 8:10 pm

      10061906

      If you recall
      that it was said in the begining that natalee had wanted to see the light house.
      and I believe that the three retards.. poor excuse for humans….. took her there .. and its very possible thats where the crime happened..
      how sad she got to see the lighthouse .. but would never live to tell it..how sad is that..
      those three pathetic idiots took her life.. not much is said about the kalpoe’s these days but we all know they were involved.. they knew more they lied..possibly fear of retribution of pauulus and his evil sources…we keep saying joran joran.. and yes joran was the main one but lets not forget those two sand monkey idiots..

    64. s.h, on March 15th, 2008 8:30 pm

      Aruba does not learn. They just don’t. They don’t get it. They can not see past Greed aparently.

      My question is:WHEN IS THE NETHERLANDS GOING TO SPLIT OFF FROM ARUBA? ARUBA IN MY OPINION IS RUINING THE CHARACTER AND INTEGRITY OF THE NETHERLANDS. AND THE PEOPLE OF THE NETHERLANDS ARE ALLOWING THIS? ARE THE PEOPLE OF THE NETHERLANDS THE SAME AS THOSE IN ARUBA? IF NOT THEN, WHEN IS THE SPLIT GOING TO BE IMPLEMENTED? What are you waiting for?

    65. benh on March 15th, 2008 8:51 pm

      Just when the news on Natalees case gets quiet,who comes to the rescue once again and puts their foot in their mouth,,,Aruba does .How stupid can you get.

      It’s late…I am tired but thinking of Deepaks comment in the ale’s car to Joran if they find the girl…. Wondering if Natalee was buried somewhere on the island and the searchers might have gotten close to where she was buried? His comment was to me saying there was a possiblity of finding Natalee. just talking out loud.

    70. Scared Monkeys on March 15th, 2008 10:16 pm

      It is almost comical that the AHATA does not comprehend the fact that they are destroying their own tourism.

      Maybe they have not properly read their job descriptions.

    71. Richard on March 15th, 2008 11:10 pm

      Are we to understand that Aruba is saying that tourism has fallen off BECAUSE of the reporting of Fox News and others? Or of just Fox News?

      If so, then wouldn’t Aruba have to prove at least these two things for the suit not to be thrown out of court summarily:

      a. That it is the reporting of TV networks that is causing the decline in tourism. (How would Aruba prove that … do a survey of every American?)

      b. That Fox News has been more ‘biased’ in its reporting than other networks … and how could it prove that, since Greta was the one who originally said that she was inclined to believe Joran, and that even now the interviews with Joran are still accessible on her blog?

      Or is Aruba saying that any TV network that airs an interview with Beth and/or Dave is somehow biased? Let it look to its own practices.

      Anyway, thanks for doing this latest crap now, Aruba … demonstrations in Houston and Washington, D.C., are coming up. We can rely on your tourism authorities to continue giving us reasons to repeat our basic message:

      No justice for Natalee … no tourism for Aruba.

    72. Richard on March 15th, 2008 11:16 pm

      Were I Ms. van Susteren, I would be setting up links with Dutch media and TV, urging them to let the people of the Netherlands know what their Caribbean welfare case, Aruba, is up to now.

      Let’s see how the “liberal” Dutch react to this asinine attempt by Aruba to thwart scrutiny.

    73. nctripp on March 15th, 2008 11:27 pm

      Thanks Aruba for keeping me interested in this story. I live near the UNC coed that was murdered so I got side tracked ..but since we
      caught and arrested the murderers in 1 week , I’ll come back to this case. Now everyone will
      be that much madder at Aruba. How stupid can they be to give USA one more reason to hate them.
      I want to say it is time to bomb them but not fair to the innocent people.
      Maybe just a strategic shock & awe right into the police station!!!!

    74. brie on March 15th, 2008 11:53 pm

      Aruba is governed by corruption….and Paulus is their handywork…you do it and I’ll cover it up…being going on for years…Joran is well aware of the fact that Daddy has the support of the so-called masters to be….he’s an uncontrolled kid that thinks he can do anything he wants…..and he does!!!!

    76. Kat_Gram on March 16th, 2008 2:01 am

      Joe Tacopina was given plenty of air time on Greta’s show and he is the one who brought it to our attention that Aruba is a cesspool. And a dangerous place. Boeti Naar living in a tent, many dangerous persons on the beach, anyone could have done it, etc that spouted from Joe’s mouth. Even he didn’t like the investigation or lack thereof. While he defended Joran he trashed Aruba. Put his name on the to be sued by Aruba list.

    78. Melissa on March 16th, 2008 7:45 am

      Oh those poor Arubans – they do not understand our first amendment rights and our legal system. These poor people can be butchered by an inempt or drunken doctor and they have ABSOLUTELY no legal recourse. Arubans believe Americans are sue crazy – I agree with Greta – it would be the best possible scenario if they instigated a law suit.

      “If tourism is up 8%, I bet it’s because “travelers on the cheap” are taking advantage of “comped” rooms and services…so Aruba is not making much, if any, profit.” posted by Kiltie65
      ——————

      Good point–I wondered about that, too. IF the numbers are accurate (which is questionable), how many travelers took cheap deals? Some people will go anywhere if the price is low enough.
      And Aruba won’t make much money from those travelers.

      And also, it’s easy to present statistics in a way to make them look favorable when they really aren’t.

      If tourism is so “wonderful,” why is AHATA suing Greta?

    81. Bob on March 16th, 2008 8:29 am

      AHATA is clearly underwater and is (mis)managed to a fair thee well. Imagine lying to the PM Oduber? First telling him tourism is flourishing, then reporting it’s sinking. Oduber publically laments to the world that the Natalee case is costing Aruba 10′s of millions in lost revenues. Then AHATA puts out a phoney report that it’s tourism in part rose in 2007. LOL. All baloney.

      When exposed for the callous phoney reporting, and the 2007-8 winter season in the landfill due to Jorans confession……AHATA decides to blame Greta, ABC, and the American news media? If there’s one entity you do NOT want to piss off, it’s the media. Easiest way to dig your own grave.

      And you think the BOYCOTT doesn’t work? Aruba: thanks for pitching in and HELPING the BOYCOTT effort! LOL. Imbecilles!

      This news from Aruba is probably suppose to scare us bloggers too. Sorry Aruba, but in America, truth is a full defense to slander.

      Funny to hear tacopinia before he’s on Joran’s team!

      Looks like hundreds of people are walking the streets of Aruba protesting. Picture on Amigoe

      If you see a bunch of people on the beach or in the bars they are not tourists just residents of the island on strike.

      Wow! I’d like to see the reaction from those two!

      Stop paying clowns to make bad decisions for you.

      You cannot shut up the American press. Any idiot knows that.

      Instead of trying to SHUT UP the press, why not concentrate on LOCKING UP the perps. That will give you better PR.

    103. Richard on March 16th, 2008 12:07 pm

      Don’t forget, when the idea of a tourism boycott first came up, Aruba lost no time in saying that it was illegal.

      Guess we aren’t hearing that anymore. Why not?

      Because we, as American citizens and as consumers, have the right to boycott wherever and whatever we want, be the reason valid or stupid.

      Some people boycott Exxon.

      Some people boycott Wal-Mart.

      Bill O’Reilly at one point urged people to boycott Vermont.

      We have every right to boycott Aruba, and to do so. Following May 30, 2005, we have had a moral imperative to boycott Aruba and to urge others to do so.

      As for Aruba’s tourism numbers … remember that Nelson Oduber in January said on Dutch TV that because of Natalee’s case, Aruba has “already” lost tens of millions of tourism dollars.

      Pretty funny statement … considering that in 2005, 2006, and 2007, Aruba kept insisting that tourism was NOT suffering any impact. The statistics said otherwise, but since when have facts mattered to Aruba?

      (And remember, we used to get the trolls here who said that boycotts never work, nope, never….
      Haven’t read that lately, for some reason.)

      At the end of the month, Aruba Tourism Authority will be at events in Washington DC and Houston.
      And people even now are making plans to show up, hand out flyers, and remind people:

      No justice for Natalee … no tourism for Aruba.

    104. Richard on March 16th, 2008 12:11 pm

      Matter of fact, the American lawyer who represents Aruba in this nonsense ought to be boycotted. Or, at least, held up to public ridicule.

    105. brie on March 16th, 2008 12:16 pm

      At the end of every video Greta ought to mention the number of days Natalee has been missing in Aruba. Wonder what prompted that letter, I haven’t heard Greta comment on anything recently concerning Natalee or Aruba. Maybe Rob Smith and the empty booths at the travel shows. So they attack the media. Well, they look like fools standing behind and around their booths while Natalee supporters are there. Serves ‘em right!!!

      Tourists had better be careful and watch their step, might get stampeded by the protesters who want to sue their government. While their at it how about some signs also directed to their gov’t that say Justice for Natalee.

    109. Miss-Underestimated on March 16th, 2008 1:27 pm

      I am getting highly annoyed. How is it everyone and their brother from Aruba can sue anybody but the parents of Natalee Holloway can’t sue a soul? Even if the perp admitts on tape that Natalee may not been dead when his daury put Natalee in the sea?
      Maybe we can get Arlene to tell us about that?

    110. Bob on March 16th, 2008 1:43 pm

      The photo shot of the deserted and abandoned booth at the St. Louis Tourism show is most likely what precipitated AHATA to hire a fool attorney to write that idiotic letter to Greta.

      The POWER of personal choice made by AMERICANS to BOYCOTT Aruba is a God given right. We will visit who, what & when we CHOOSE. Alternately, we can not visit who, what or when we CHOOSE. We can give money to people in need or waste it away in a casino if we CHOOSE. We can also NOT choose to visit a country who does not care to protect it’s PRIME source of livelihood….it’s TOURISTS.

      We CHOOSE to recommend excellent places for others to go, and we CHOOSE to BOYCOTT and alert others of negative or unsafe conditions. In short We CHOOSE to BOYCOTT Aruba for a variety of reasons. And we will express our disappointment with Aruba’s attitude and in-actions to welcome and protect tourists.

      Aruba: you can have your lousey 10 yr. Honorary Citizen award back……..we ain’t ever going to set foot again on your sand bar, ever.

    111. Bob on March 16th, 2008 1:52 pm

      Here’s a little history homework for Aruba. In America, many years ago, there was spoken a famous expression……”It was the shot heard around the world”.

      Let’s see if you can find, even a loose link, to the above expression, and Natalee’s injustice.

      If you get that far, go for the gold: look up the outcome after that expression was broadcast for all to read.

      Aruba, it is said that a country’s capacity is relative to it’s goal. Indeed, your goal for self-destruction has been acheived. Let’s see how those Q1 & Q2 -2008 tourism numbers look. I wouldn’t hand them to the PM in person, it will be best to mail them inter-office. Geez, it’s going to be really ugly. Whoa………….

      #109….things about Aruba are highly annoying and really pissing people off…like Paulus getting compensation for begin detained….wasn’t that a pile of it….especially knowing he was guilty all along….they reward you in Aruba for crime…and he is a lawyer, someone that took an oath.

      Well, Aruba just keeps stacking the s~~t higher and higher, eventually that pile is going to far over and then you had better tread every so lightly.

    113. brie on March 16th, 2008 4:00 pm

      We ought to bombard the Sloot house with as many pictures of Natalee as we can possibly find…print them off the internet and send them. We could write anonymous letters to him, like he does to everybody else….

      It will be funny to have Aruba try to prove that it was Greta and other American media that kept Americans out of Aruba instead of:

      1. unsafe airport
      2. workers striking
      3. Joran’s confession on video
      4. Joran’s book
      5. Tacopinia shoot off his mouth
      6. Lies, lies, and more lies
      7. Monkeys outside travel shows in info
      8. No one likes the sand pit one crappy island
      9. drugs and crime
      10. all the other reasons the trolls have given like hotels being under construction, don’t want Americans, focusing on Europeans, fuel prices, disease from mosquitoes, fickle Americans, Suit against Dr. Phil, lies, lies and more lies, bad economy,

      Hey, Yo Aruba! No one believes you any more. Who fed Oduber the phoney figures? Tourism is up 8% you published? Did you forget this:

      “Amigoe, November 14, 2006:

      Ahata: Briesen should be better advised

      ORANJESTAD — Aruba Hotel and Tourism Association (Ahata) has put full page ads in the newspapers, saying that the association is disappointed in the statements of minister Edison Briesen (MEP) of Tourism and Transport. The minister said recently that everybody should stop putting into their head that there is a crisis in the Aruban tourism, because that’s not the case. Ahata is of the opinion that Briesen must let himself be advised better, because the facts are clear: “in comparison with competing islands, we are doing badly.”

      Ahata published a comparison between the first six months of 2006 with the first six months of 2005. The tourism figures of the Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO) for the above comparison show a negative growth of 10.3 percent.”

      So, in just 6 months, Aruba went from -10.3% to close the year +8% ???? How did you do that? What was the compelling attraction to reverse over 18%?

      Oh, I know….it was those 3 new 1997 movies booked for the Drive-in, no doubt. LOL. Between Breisen and Smith….zero clues.

      They do not need any help looking like IDIOTS. They do a great job by themselves! Read todays healine from their newspaper, Amigeo.com

      Family submits a claim for compensation

      WILLEMSTAD – Family Claret, whose home was raided by the police last week, is going to submit a claim for compensation.

      After having received a tip, police officers raided the house at the Paranaweg last Tuesday afternoon. Nothing suspicious was found in the house though. The family Claret has no past record; the information was obviously not verified or the address was wrong, says lawyer Gelmer Pieter, who’s going to start the procedure on behalf of the family. The claim for compensation is based on article 178 of the Penal Code. Pieter has used this in the past when he submitted a claim for compensation on behalf of police-inspector Shon Ma Isidora, who was acquitted in the court of appeals and received a compensation of 25 guilders for each day that he has been undeservedly in jail. What the amount is that this family is going to claim is not known. “Everybody is still disconcerted of what had happened. They have meanwhile consulted a psychologist”, says the lawyer.

      The entire family was at home that afternoon, including the children’s two friends from school. Suddenly a team of police raided the house and ordered everybody to lie flat on the floor. The police had even pulled their guns on them. The whole operation lasted 45 minutes and the family says that the police officers were very rude. They complained about the whole business again during a press conference on Thursday. They haven’t heard anything from the police top. “But the family isn’t going to let it be. The police have failed and it is not the first time that the wrong house was raided. That’s just not right.”

      Yep, they are IDIOTS!

      Any truth to the rumor that Greta is going to devote 1/2 hour show next week to an update on the Natalee story, and the threat to sue her, FOX and the american media in general from AHATA?

      I guess she could get a court order to bring various selected Aruban “guests” to the U.S. to be deposed and interviewed. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if FOX TV paid for a first class flight for Joran? Maybe we could book Madison Sq Garden for the spectacle.

      i’m convinced that “REALITY” is a sloot……no one in their right mind who has followed this case from day one would defend those morons on that island…….obviously “Reality” doesn’t understand the reality of it all.

      pictures are worth a gazillion words….bucuti resort webcam…4 on the beach, tara Beach webcam, 5, Playa Linda 9 in the pool, radisson aruba, 4 pool, 2 at the bar. perhaps these are the UK tourists that ATA has been speaking of in their 8 percent of increase of tourists…..

    138. kaye on March 19th, 2008 1:17 pm

      calling all monkeys and posters…my suggestion is that the 3rd anniversary of natalee’s rape/murder/disappearance is fast approaching. none of us have given up hope. i think one of the positive things is the american news media has helped us keep her story alive. i have recently started AND i wish each of you would take a few minutes to go to every media website (i.e. CNN, FOX, ABC, CBS, NBC, Glen Beck, Greta, Bill O’Reily,AMW,Geraldo, etc) any that you can think of, make a list, visit each website and go to “contact”, send an email or letter asking or begging them to do a special update on the natalee holloway case as her 3rd anniversary is approaching. press upon them the importance of keeping this case alive and that there are so many unanswered questions and lies within the government…….i’m sure each of you can formulate a convincing email or letter on your own without my help. everyone here at SM is and always has been concerned with one thing…..getting answers and to the truth of this case.(except for a few buttheads who don’t belong on this site to begin with). god bless each of you who carry the torch and keep the hope alive for natalee and the holloway family.

      Dear Americans,

      I’m an Arubian speaking in the name of ARUBA
      It is very sad and shocking how you guys are taking the situation of Nathaly.
      As you might know a man has 5 fingers on his hand that are different in length and thickness meaning all people are different, you guys should know better.
      You can’t blame Aruba and Arubians for the mistake of a non-Aruban teenager.
      I read some of the comments and I find it very absurd and childish the reaction of some critics.
      The American people have a relationship like forever with Aruba. Before the incident of Nathaly everybody was happy, but now you almost eat us alive with you thoughts.

      It is a very painful situation and touchy subject, I got a sister and don’t want this happening to her. But you guys shouldn’t point fingers on us because till now we helped with everything and that’s the problem you guys take us for granted.
      Just because we are a tiny island you want to destroy us, take it out with the core of the problem not around it.
      Some of the Americans want to boycott Aruba, let me tell you boycott Aruba and you will boycott yourself.
      Aruba is not the problem; the problem is when you take your problem down to our island. As you might know education and respect begins at home.
      Some of you guys talk a lot of bad things of Aruba; you’ll have to take those words back because you don’t know what you are flattering.
      If you try boycott Aruba you shall not succeed by any means, we are people from the sun and sea, nature will take care of us, we have plenty fish and iguanas to eat.
      Instead the Tourist should pay us to use our beaches and land to bring all the stress out. Now wonder Aruba is a happy Island.
      One thing I can tell you, the Aruban people are the kindest people you will ever know. Don’t cheap talk Aruba.
      We are tiny and we are proud, if you want to resolve the problem, look for someone of your own size.
