In reply to the discussion: Venezuela to probe Chavez cancer poisoning accusation [View all]mikeysnot

Chavez died of a heart attack not cancer...
Chavez died Tuesday at age 58 from amassive heart attack,according to the head of Venezuela's presidential guard. He had been battling an undisclosed form of cancer for 14 years.

The Cuba government and Venezuelan gov kept the form of cancer secret, so you are assuming he had colon cancer. he was treated in his pelvic area, so that could mean it was in his reproductive organs.
7) Reproductive Tract
Because reproductive tract cells divide rapidly, these areas of the body can be damaged at rem levels as low as 200. Long-term, some radiation sickness victims will become sterile.

Again radiation could have caused this not saying it did, but if the Venezuelan was privy to the type of cancer, that would lead them to surmise something fishy. Especially since he got it shortly after he was elected in 1998.

And then the heart attack caused death, so there is always this.......

The answer to the question - Can you give a person cancer - is yes. After nearly 80 years of research and development there is now a way to simulate a real heart attack and to give a healthy person cancer. Both have been used as a means of assassination. Only a very skilled pathologist, who knew exactly what to look for at an autopsy, could distinguish an assassination induced heart attack or cancer from the real thing.
I am not CT and I AM NOT STATING THIS IS TRUE, but they are privy to info you are not privy too. And like you, we are both assuming, only I am the only one to admit it.
You just respond with bad analogies and logical fallacies. Have a good day.
