ORANJESTAD (AAN): Now there are two city councilmen from Philadelphia who are proposing a local boycott of Aruba, due to their concern about Aruba and they way its functionaries have treated the case of the disappearance of Natalee Holloway.

Juan Ramos and Jack Kelly came up with this law, which urges Philadelphia inhabitants to boycott Aruba, after that Alabama Governor Bob Riley made a petition for all of America to stop traveling to Aruba.

TV Channels had an interview with those involved in the boycott, and showed again that Joran van der Sloot, Deepak Kalpoe and Satish Kalpoe lied consistently.

Everyone knows that they are involved in this, otherwise they wouldn’t have lied. They want that the Public Ministry of Aruba detain the youngsters again and start investigating them again, let them sweat out their guilt.

Apart from this, now that that they have come out with the boycott group, they even want to stop cruise ships and even cargo ships from coming to Aruba. They don’t want any American product sent to Aruba anymore.

They are thinking that all cargo companies have to stop sending merchandise to Aruba.

One of the ones who has expressed himself more openly is Joe Mammana. He went as far as saying that Aruba is a place that is a 'terrorist den’ and that Americans could be attacked at any moment. According to him, there is no more security in Aruba anymore.
