Mistreated America

We believe that America has been mistreated because of the absurd accusations of Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez. Chavez says that America may be causing the illnesses of cancer-stricken Latin American leaders. He is one of them. Several leaders have been diagnosed with cancer: Brazilian president Dilma Rousseff, Argentinian president Cristina Kirchner, Paraguayan president Fernando Lugo and former Brazilian president Luiz Lula.

The U.S. has not yet developed the technology to cause cancer or other dangerous diseases. America can only cause people to suffer from these diseases through the use of internationally prohibited weapons. Three million Vietnamese people still suffer from diseases caused by the weapons that the United States used in the Vietnam invasion. They consisted of toxic and dangerous chemicals that were used to cut down trees and forests which served as fortresses for the enemies.

Moreover, in 1991, during Operation Desert Storm, depleted uranium was used against Iraq. This caused an increase in cancer rates among the Iraqi children. During the occupation in 2003, depleted uranium and other dangerous kinds of weapons were used when conquering the brave Fallujah. That resulted in spreading illness and increasing the birth of deformed children to the extent that a British doctor advised the residents of the city to stop procreating.

Dear Mr. President: Who knows? Maybe America has developed the technology you talk about. The accusations are possible.
