Jeez, what a pack of bullshit. Do journalists do journalism anymore?

They lie, and their lies are uncontested by the press. Just like the "white lies" anti-smoking crap that's on tv.

No pot is lethal.

"The drug’s effects are lethal: False"

Not if you consider that it causes the need for more munchies, thus lethal to your gut. LOL

Hydro goes for about NIS 500 (USD 110) per 10 grams (0.35 ounces), compared with regular marijuana which is sold for NIS 600 (USD 133) per kilo.

Numbers must be wrong. Hydro seems to be selling for $110,000 a kilo, while regular is selling for $133 for a kilo.

What are they teaching journalists?

This article has to be the worst one I've seen in a while. I guess it was too much trouble for this lazy ass reporter to email some Dutch breeders and get the facts.

I think the author meant regular marijuana is $133 per ounce, not per kilo. "Death Marijuana" would then work out to $330 per ounce.

The drug’s effects are lethal.

Right.

Everyone who smokes it will eventually die.

Just like everyone who drinks water will eventually die.

As an extract, hashish is going to be stronger than any dried plant

That's what they say, but the little cubes never did much for me for some reason, even in Amsterdam. Smelled good, but that's about it.

Took me a few minutes to figure out they're talking about 'killer weed'.

LOL!

From the headline, I thought they meant folks were dropping dead.

Hydro is more potent than regular grass.

Hydro does not create hallucinatory effects.

We're in agreement, this article is a absolute joke.

Nancy Reagan taught us everything we need to know about drugs except the street price. The Just Say No to Drugs campaign we were subjected to in 1980's elementary schools, with Nancy's mug all over the campaign, exposed us to more types of illegal drugs, names, doses, actual pills in resin cases, effects, where to buy it, where to steal it, etc. than any individual except the hardest of hardcore junkheads would ever know of in their lives.

Senior police official Yaron Ahrak taught us the street price.

When you expel the Gaza Israelis, and a year later 98% don't have permanent jobs or housing, but they have several decades of hydroponic and greenhouse growing experience, the entrepreneurs will fill the void to get them quick cash.

Memo to Group going to Holy Land:

Forget homicide-bombers! Worry about Israelis armed with killer marijuana!

I worry a lot about Israel and things that happen there, but I have to admit, I never once thought about the drug problem in Israel.

There are plenty of young Israelis who purposefully fail the drug tests to get out of the front line service, the brig in Israel isn't that harsh, and for some preferable to having to kill someone.. And once in the service, the Israelis don't test the lowest grunts for drugs, I walked into a backwater supply depot filled with Russians and Georgians and they were all lit up. Wen you get paid nothing and have to live in some of the barracks the Israelis have, you do whatever you can to escape.

Cheap harsh weed is cheaper than cigarettes in Israel, and since the Russians smoke those harsh Russian cigs, harsh weed is where it's at, so I was told.

You gotta be careful with hash in Amsterdam. The low quality stuff is called "soapbar" and I've read horror stories of people melting LP records and other interesting objects and mixing it in to create fake hash bars. I think the term was called a "Pakistani headache" for the effect of smoking melted records...

What a bunch of bull.

Fresh from the pages of the LA Times Circa 1980....

Mostly lies, and it's certainly NOT lethal...doesn't cause kidney damage and doesn't cause high blood pressure beyond being under the immediate influence.
