Lebanon war puts damper on Israeli pot smokers

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel's recent war with Lebanese Hezbollah guerrillas has sent cannabis prices sky high in the Jewish state.
Boosted security on the Lebanon frontier brought a drastic reduction in drug smuggling, with the cost of cannabis in Israel up eight-fold, the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper reported on Tuesday.
Smoking and selling cannabis are illegal in Israel. Trafficking from Egypt has also been curbed by Israeli patrols aimed at preventing Palestinians from smuggling in arms.
[This is surely a strange story.] |

It's hash that comes from lebanon
Israeli pot smokers will be fine. Due to the Israeli-Egypt peace treaty, pot is easy to get from Egypt. In Egypt, the military is responsible for crackign down on drug smuggling but as per the peace treaty, the military is not allowed in Sinai... |

Yeah, you don't need a visa for Sinai but you do for the rest of Egypt
I got into a huge argument with the military when I was on the bus. They saw that not only had i been to Israel, i'd volunteered on a kibbutz. They closed my passport (ignoring my visa) and tried throwing me off the bus and leaving me in the desert. Wsas really sketchy. |
