Israel: A cannabis plant is not the enemy

Israeli defense forces will soon be using cannabis to treat soldiers for
combat stress. An army statement from August 2005 said its military
medical corps and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem would begin
treating victims of post traumatic stress disorder with THC, which is
found in cannabis.

The thing that makes this statement strange is the research is being
funded, in part, by the U.S. military and is expected to also have
benefits for stroke sufferers.

So does that mean cannabis might have some medical use that President
Bush doesn't know about? But Bush, being a born-again Christian, should
know this. His Bible says that God gave every herb-bearing seed. Maybe
he skipped Genesis 1: 11,12 and Genesis 1: 29, 31.

Cannabis smoke doesn't contribute to world terrorism. It's the folks
that vote for the politicians that vote for combining the war on drugs
and continuing prohibition. If prohibition ended today, tomorrow there
wouldn't be a terrorist in the world who could make a penny out of
selling hemp. So our government must be helping the terrorists by
continuing this war on drugs. Stop the war on cannabis.
