As far as breast cancer is concerned, here's what the ACS says about cigarette smoking and breast cancer, since your connection is too slow to look it up for yourself-

"Most studies have found no link between active cigarette smoking and breast cancer. Though both active smoking and secondhand smoke have been suggested to increase the risk of breast cancer in some studies, the issue remains controversial. The US Surgeon General is currently reviewing the evidence on this link, and a report is expected in late 2006."

Now your changing what you are saying. Underling and bold added by me.

You originally posted, "Strange how smoking, which doesn’t show any direct link to cancer gets so much attention,"

Now you change your statement/argument to the following.

"Most studies have found no link between active cigarette smoking and breast cancer."

So which is it? Is there NO link between smoking and cancer, or just smoking and breast cancer?
