Hugo Chavez Says the U.S. May Be Behind His Bout With Cancer...

About a month ago, another ATS member posed the question, "Could the US be behind Chavez' cancer?"

So I was surprised to see today that Chavez is wondering the same thing! (I wonder if he read it on ATS!)

Not only is he wondering if the US is behind HIS cancer, but the mysterious cancers of other Latin American leaders... "Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, said the Central Intelligence Agency was behind chemical experiments in Guatemala in the 1940s and that it’s possible that in years to come a plot will be uncovered that shows the U.S. spread cancer as a political weapon against its critics."

Hmmm... an interesting theory.

Quite frankly, I wouldn't be surprised.....

Here's another quote from the article regarding the cancer of other Latin American leaders:

"Chavez, who was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer in June and had a baseball-sized tumor removed in Cuba, has called for a regional summit of leaders who have battled cancer including Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff, her predecessor Luiz Inacio Lula Da Silva and Paraguay’s Fernando Lugo.

“I’m just sharing my thoughts, but it’s very, very, very strange,” Chavez said. “Evo take care of yourself, Correa, be careful, we just don’t know,” he said, referring to Evo Morales and Rafael Correa, the leaders of Bolivia and Ecuador.

Thomas Mittnacht, press director at the U.S. embassy in Caracas, declined to comment when reached by telephone. "

Plausible deniability.

I wouldn't doubt it at all, tbh. We have to much scum addicted to money and power.

Great post because very valid questions are being asked by Chavez. This should get interesting.

Respectfully, I'm not so sure this is a "bunch of crap."

Ask Steven Greer, who believes his assistant was "given" cancer. He's very vocal about it. There are others out there who claim the same thing. Mostly the people who are claiming this are involved in certain tasks or occupations that are "outing" things that others don't want to be disclosed.

Do you believe that Jack Ruby--or any of the other people who mysteriously died who were witnesses in the JFK murder---died of natural causes?

We know what causes cancer my friend. It wouldn't be too hard to make sure someone is stricken with it.

The american government?, assassinating people?

Well quite frankly i dont believe it, I mean there has only been.......

Very interesting. The main points to consider whether this could be true are:

1. Does the US want him dead?

2. Do they have the technology to do this?

3. Do they have the opportunity to use this technology?

If the answer to all three of these questions is yes, it could very well be possible.

If Chavez indeed had a "baseball-sized" tumor in his abdominal cavity and the tumor was not from metastases, I would guess it was colon cancer, less likely a kidney tumor. Statistically speaking, the most likely contributing factors are family history, tobacco use, obesity, diabetes, radiation exposure (prior treatments), alcohol use and other causes according to this link::
www.mayoclinic.com...=risk-factors

Putting on my paranoid hat (and using the following link), I suppose he could have been exposed to radiation, viruses (human papilloma virus), chemicals such as pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, trihalomethanes, or some industrial solvents. See:
www.empowher.com...

Since Chavez has lots of money and probably top notch physicians, he has probably been tested for exposure to most of these.

Really?
OK, let's use that logic for other world events....

1. Does NuclearPaul live in Australia?
2. Does Australia have US military bases?
3. Since Australia is democratic, NuclearPaul must support the US in their attempt to rule the world.

Transitive argument much?

How about we just use the logic that states history has shown us the U.S murders political leaders who are not pro-U.S

Holy SHIP!
Ixtab, my ATS brother, you may need to seek a safe house or something. The facts/proof you have presented clearly shown that the US is murdering political leaders around the world!
How did you get this information? Do your handlers know you are an ATS member? Do they know you wear boxers instead of briefs? Do they know about your special "Tin-Foil Hat?"

The CIA must now know your IP address and will be there shortly to "talk" to you.

RUN FOR YOU LIFE!
Be safe my friend!

PS - Please let us know you are safe, if not, we will all post theories about your demise, some of which might be true.

Oh dont worry about me, I have nothing to fear, I am Pro-USA!!! USA!!! USA!!! USA!!! USA!!! USA!!! All the way. I get myself 3 Mcdonalds a day, I only ever eat processed cheese and lard, I bought a 5.8ltr V8 Super Charged pick up truck that weighs three tons and gives me -34 MPG, thats right MINUS!!!. But i dont mind, all i wanna do is buy MORE MORE MORE GASOLINE!!!!!! YEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But its not all fun and games, soon I will be fighting off rapists in a tent city after the my 38 million dollar mortgage fell through, why they said i could afford that I dont know, my colleagues at Wall Mart Cashier Services told me I couldnt but you know, we all have to help the banks somehow and if that means paying back every honest to god dollar then thats just what i'll do, cause thats the American way y'all. I just hope I can scavange enough food stamps over winter to stop the rapists my family and I share a tent with

I wondered the same thing about Jack Layton up here in Canada. The NDP party had been making noticeable gains in the most recent elections. One or two more elections and I think he would've made it to Prime Minister.

Possible? Plausible? Perhaps... Easiest way to assassinate someone. Make it look like a "natural disaster."

-_- This thread cannot be serious. Outside of cancer not being an uncommon health problem, Chavez is a smoker. So the chances that he would develop cancer are higher without any genetic predisposition. If he has family members who have cancer his chances are even higher. If a government wanted this guy silenced....why would they choose something that kills you slowly with a high chance of recovery especially given the level of treatment he is likely to receive because of his status. This belongs where it is skunkworks.

Russia bumps people off with radioactive substances, they have a habit of not being too subtle about it however.

Its exactly those reasons that make cancer the best form of assassination. Nobody would suspect foul play, and even if they did they couldn't prove it. All it would take to knock him off is something slipped in a meal or drink by an agent. With so much funds and bright people working for them they are bound to have an ingenious way of doing it. I'm thinking cancer will be their favorite form of assassination.

I know some Russian dissidents have made claims of the Kgb having slipped into tbeir drink or meal.And yeah wouldnt it be the way to off someone and get away with it?
