A study has found there’s been a surge in the use of illicit drugs by Palestinians living in the occupied West Bank and east Jerusalem.According to Palestinian drug workers a major reason for the increase is that Israeli authorities are turning a blind eye to the trafficking of drugs to Palestinians.
They claim it’s part of an effort to destroy the fabric of Palestinian life, a claim Israeli authorities strongly deny.
Read the whole post. Not only have the drugs been around for quite some time, but introducing the notion that the Israelis are responsible because they don't stop it, is just another excuse in the Palestinian (and European) arsenal of "We're so pathetic that it can't be our fault". Sound familiar?
