Chavez jumps the shark

Patrick1K, and others will be all over this like wieght challenged young people on a candy-coated chocolate treat....
 
What a classic paranoid conspiracy theorist line!

"I'm not accusing anybody, and I don't have any proof, but......"
 
Here's what he said:

“It’s difficult to explain, at this point, what is happening to some of us in Latin America,” Chavez said. “It’s strange that [Paraguayan president Fernando] Lugo, [Brazilian president] Dilma [Rousseff], and then myself, and a few days later [ex Brazilian president Luiz Inacio] Lula [Da Silva] and now Cristina [Fernandez] have contracted cancer”.

“Would it be strange if the U.S had developed the technology to induce cancer? I don’t know, I leave it to be reflected on,” he added.

“I don’t want to make any reckless accusations, but just a while ago I heard president Alvaro Colom [of Guatemala] telling the United States that it should accept its responsibility and seek forgiveness from the Guatemalan people, because it was shown, fifty years later, that they ran a biological and chemical operation, venereal diseases included, in the country, for scientific tests,” Chavez added.

Would it be strange if Hugo Chavez were a nutcase that various leftist apologized for because they are also a tad dingy in the head due to too many bong hits? I don't know. I leave it to be reflected on. I don't want to make any reckless accusations.
 
By splicing his ridiculous cancer claim/joke with the serious allegation about the medical experiments I don't think he's helped the Guatemalans at any rate.
 
I see people in this forum regularly calling for Chavez's death. Would it be strange for someone in the government (or connected to it) to have the same mindset and seek out the means to act on it? No, it would not be strange.

In other words, I would not reject evidence of it arbitrarily.

And if he comes up with some that would be a different matter, as it is there's nothing but a claim/bad joke.
 
The history of US subversion in Latin America goes well beyond the "big names" that are brought up repeatedly. It is not unreasonable for Chavez to pose the question that he poses in that context.

Yah, actually, it is, because it presupposes that they're using some sort of cancer causing machine to do the sort of thing they usually use guys with guns to do.

It's not the "They hate us and want us to die" claim that's ridiculous, it's the claim that they're using cancer to kill them that's ridiculous.

Tell it to Alexander Litvinenko.

Well, that just highlights my point:

On 1 November 2006, Litvinenko suddenly fell ill and was hospitalised. His illness was later attributed to poisoning with radionuclide polonium-210 after the Health Protection Agency found significant amounts of the rare and highly toxic element in his body. In interviews, Litvinenko stated that he met with two former KGB agents early on the day he fell ill

When you want to kill someone, there are much more direct ways to do it, than inducing some disease that isn't fatal in all cases, takes a long time to kill them if it is fatal, and has effective treatments, and new such treatments being introduced all the time.
 
A machine that can cause cancer on anyone on the planet? And we used it on him? Someone that isn't even a real pain to the USA?

And I question this as a means of assassination. People can beat cancer. Better to build a machine that just turns all their blood into dust.

Meh. Chavez has so much humor value that I can't imagine seriously wanting him to be dead.

But if you think that a Magic Cancer Ray is even plausible, put your psychiatrist on danger money and get your meds adjusted now.
