WHO: Smoking kills 5 million every year

The tobacco companies probably use the same scientists as the global warming fraudsters use. Or is that the other way around? Anyway, the tobacco scientists are constantly saying how harmless smoking is.

And of course, all the major governments that accept bribes from the tobacco companies, or collect taxes on the sales of tobacco have proved they don't care about the health of their "citizens".

So why does the United Nations bother to announce that smoking is bad? After all, nobody is required to listen to anything the United Nations says. And if a country foolishly signs a nonsmoking treaty, all they have to do is withdraw from the treaty. Since there is no reward for signing a treaty, and no penalty for not signing a treaty, what point is there in signing a treaty?

To look good on the evening news?

Hopefully nobody is fooled by this nonsense.
