Why do you think anybody believe that? Combining your code with GPL:ed code so that it becomes a derived works make your code GPL. And if it is LGPL than the user has to be able to recreate the binary when new libraries are available. If you statically link to a GPL:ed library then it is a derived work.

Maybe all the licenses for the libraries are other licenses then GLP or LGPL but that is another claim.
