Israel’s Reefer Madness

Hide your children! Devil weed is coming! Hydroponic marijuana use is on the rise (just for the rich) and according to the police will result in an increase of crime. You see, this weed is so good that people will stop at nothing to get it – including violence!

The police are labeling it “death marijuana.”

“If in regular grass the active ingredient is 13 percent, in Hydro it is five or six times more,” senior police official Yaron Ahrak said. “The drug is distributed mostly among the affluent, who can afford it. The drug’s effects are lethal. All we need now is that the youth will get a hold of it.” Police fear Hydro will spark a revolution in the drug market and an increase in drug-related violence.

“The drug may cause a rise in violence among users and among its distributors. If the youth will start using Hydro we will see a rise in violence and in criminal activity, because the users will seek ways to finance their consumption,” Ahrak said.

Lethal marijuana? No one, since the dawn of man, has EVER died from marijuana use. Perhaps Officer Ahrak has been drinking too much of his namesake. Because alcohol does kill, I know this because I saw Nick Cage die in “Leaving Los Vegas.” This article is complete garbage and full of lies. This is propaganda of the worst kind, but then again, YNET doesn’t have the highest standards. Marijuana with seventy-eight percent THC? Not likely. Actually, I’m fairly sure that’s impossible. The Israeli police make it impossible for those who receive permission from the health ministry to use the drug actually attain the drug. The government approves, doesn’t supply and the police can, will and do arrest those who are buy it on the street. It’s a bullshit situation. I covered the marijuana day festivities in Tel Aviv a few years ago and met someone with AIDS who has approval but isn’t supplied, and cannot risk smoking stuff bought on the street due to the possibility it might have a fungus that can be damaging to his immune system. It’s obvious that the police fear (for whatever reason) that the Israeli attitude toward marijuana is becoming more and more liberal. Does this type of propaganda actually work?

And marijuana causing violence? Are you joking? Have you ever heard reggae music? Worst case scenario is someone aggressively tearing open a package of bamba. Wake up police, there are much more pressing problems where people are actually being hurt.
