09/15 The Disappearance of Natalee
Quote From: nbboschName calling of any kind is basically a reflection of the mind of the person saying it. I am certain you can see the futility of taking one angry comment as a reflection of the American people as a whole.
I do think, however, I feel that something went completely and terribly wrong that night that Natalee disappeared and that the last people seen with her are responsible. That they have not come up with an adequate explanation of where Natalee is....tells me that to tell us where she is would land them in jail for life.
Consequently, it is an insult to my intelligence as a human being that lies are more important to Aruban authorities than the truth, cover up is more important to Aruban authorities than the truth, and protecting the people most likely to have caused Natalee's disappearance is more important to Aruban authorities than the truth of where is Natalee Holloway.
That a father would enable his son to escape responsibility for the disappearance of another person by using his authority and social status and education....is the most horrendous part of this very sad story.
It is not the expression of one person on TV. Look in this message board and read the many outrageous comments on our supposed liberal country.
Americans have to face the fact that on Aruba Dutch law is implemented and that means that a suspect is not guilty untill the last decision of the judge. No judge in the Netherlands or Aruba will convict an accused WITHOUT ANY EVIDENCE. And there is simply no evidence that those boys have commited a crime. I am not saying they did not in fact .... but there is no evidence at all.
I agree with you about the role of the father, it's rather strange what he did. But again, no clear evidence has not pop up yet. But you are talking about a matter of "social status and education"? So what? American justice is based on that 'values', we see that almost every day on TV.
There is a close friendship between the USA and The Netherlands for more than 200 years, from the very beginning you started to celebrate Indepence Day. But with all those insults and groundless accusations i can say that with such a friend the dutch people does not need an enemy anymore.
