Yes, Rosemary, there are conspiracies

​​Movie: Rosemary's Baby: "There are conspiracies, aren't there Doctor Hill?" "Yes, I suppose so."  "Well, there's one against me and my baby."
​
Rosemary's Baby was a fictional story, but what follows is not, though equally bizarre. Turns out, there really is a serum that can induce cancer in humans. Which fact strongly warrants a rethink about what really caused the untimely death of Venezuela's Hugo Chavez.

Globe&Mail: Queen’s [Kingston, Ontario] student faces prison after trying to poison his roommate with tainted bake goods

• He lived through the agonizing nights of pain and vomiting, but his long-term fate remains clouded in doubt.

There's no doubt much more to this story than appears on the surface with regard to motivation, but it does contain a statement I've never noticed before in a mainstream news item:

• It’s a compound used to manifest cancer in lab rats that, in sufficient doses, can be deadly to humans.

Generally, if one dares to suggest that Hugo Chavez, for instance, may have been deliberately infected by a similar compound, one is labeled a conspiracy looney. Yet Chavez died an agonizing death, his body reportedly rife with tumours, and there is no doubt whatever that the CIA was out to get him in whatever way they could.

It's interesting to me that the above local story has come out just as I've been enjoying William Blum's book: America's Deadliest Export - Democracy - specifically the chapter entitled "The crime of GWS: Governing While Socialist"(online at this URL; scroll down page to title) in which Blum describes the trials that the US put Chavez through simply because he catered more to the poor in his country than to the avarice of the already filthy rich.

• It’s not because the United States is looking to grab Venezuela’s oil. It’s because Chávez is completely independent of Washington and has used his oil wealth to become a powerful force in Latin America, inspiring and aiding other independent-minded governments in the region, like Cuba, Bolivia, Nicaragua, and Ecuador, as well as carrying on close relations with the likes of China, Russia, and Iran. The man does not show proper understanding that he’s living in the Yankee’s back yard; indeed, in the Yankee’s world. The Yankee empire grew to its present size and power precisely because it did not tolerate men like Salvador Allende and Hugo Chávez and their quaint socialist customs.

Fox News March 2013: Vice President Claims Hugo Chavez was Poisoned

• Chávez is suffering from "a new, severe" respiratory infection which has made breathing more difficult.
• Chávez has battled an unannounced form of cancer since 2011 and has deteriorated rapidly since his reelection in November, with many pundits claiming he is near his death.
• Continuing his assault on the U.S. and other foreign governments, Maduro broached the idea that Chávez was poisoned or somehow infected with the infection by "enemies" such as the United States.
• The vice president compared Chávez’s sickness to that of the former Palestinian Liberation Organization’s leader Yasser Arafat.

Even more bizarre: From PublicConspiracy -- a choice of either Video or Text Summary of the video:

• What do the polio vaccine, cancer causing monkey viruses, the plot to assassinate Fidel Castro and Lee Harvey Oswald have in common? 

You'll note that Blum does not accuse the US directly of using cancer as a weapon, but he does nicely summarize the extent of America's lethal activities while spreading "freedom":

• Attempted to overthrow more than 50 foreign governments, most of which were democratically-elected ...
• Grossly interfered in democratic elections in at least 30 countries.
• Attempted to assassinate more than 50 foreign leaders.
• Dropped bombs on the people of some 30 countries.
• Helped to suppress dozens of populist/nationalist movements.

So, surely you can imagine that, if there were a cancer-causing serum, the US would have put it into action long before now. And there certainly does seem to be one at Queen's University.
