it's unheard of that a government would poison its own citizens.

There's a bit of a difference between Tuskegee, Puerto Rico, Nevada nuclear testing sites... and the whole world in order to thwart the reelection bid of someone who will be reinstalled 4 years later anyways,,,

It's amazing that the masses forget history and how citizens have been poisoned by their own government. Then, again, what they don't teach in history classes would shock you! It isn't the same info and it's going to get worse.

They had military so close to the bombing sites that they were coughing up dust afterwards, and they invited the public to watch from a bit farther out but yet close enough to get irradiated, only they didn't know till they started getting cancer years later.

My grandparents had a house in Barcelona, Puerto Rico. It's a small town right before you enter El Yunque National Park. Literally two houses away from the entrance. It came out in the 1980s that the US Gov't tested Agent Orange around there because it was a mountainous tropical forest area, a close enough simulation of Vietnam. Literally just sprayed it around the town from overhead. I don't know if there's a connection or just coincidence, but both of them died of cancer when I was young.

Holy cow! That is a strong story! Did any of the animals become infected? I doubt it's a coincidence that both died of cancer. And...Isn't the Trump administration cutting back on aid to those affected by such things?

Not that I'm aware of. Nor had I heard of the time that the leaves fell off of everything, so who knows the extent of it. I just heard that it was tested in the area.

My grandmother had died of lung cancer, but she also smoked a lot, plus she came from the day before ovens, cooking over open flames, so who knows.

My grandfather later kept getting checked for stomach problems, they said it was gallstones over and over, then after a couple of years of this, they discovered it was cancer but by that point it had spread to his stomach and it was too late.

An uncle, their son, also passed away from cancer between them, but I don't know if he had ever lived in that house as they have been raised in another town.

Puerto Rico has the second highest cancer rate in the United States, right below New Jersey. There's a lot of pollution from factories and lax laws, so who knows what the causes really were.
