Hashish dealers in Morocco have stopped supplying Israeli smugglers with hashish due to the ongoing war in Gaza, according to a Friday N12 report.
It is unclear exactly when the boycott began. However, the report stated that criminal organizations have already lost “tens of millions of shekels” since the boycott began.
“The hashish dealers in Morocco are not willing to sell us more hashish either directly or through intermediaries,” a drug smuggler from Israel told N12, “They decided that because of the war, they are boycotting us. Since the war, we have lost a lot of money. Tens of millions of shekels at least.”
A Moroccan dealer from al-Rif confirmed to N12 that a boycott had been put in place, saying, "Why is it possible for Israelis to make a living selling Moroccan hashish when our Palestinian brothers are suffering from hunger and living in inhumane conditions? Go buy it somewhere else. We no longer sell hashish to Israelis.
Everyone knows that Israel is already flooded with Red Lebanon
Everyone does not know that, but thanks.
I wonder if Lebanese smugglers will continue (that volume) given they’ve actually been on the receiving end of Israeli drone strikes?
The Lebanese drug dealers were hit by Jordan recently not Israel, or was that the Syrian dealers?
Most of the drug traffic in the region is sponsored by Iran as it is so it’s not like it matters which gang is the one getting bombed, the source supply is endless.
Are you saying that Iran supplies drugs to Israel in order to destabilise the Israeli population?
More like governments and their intelligence services frequently have use for illicit drug networks. Such as they’re access to large supplies of money (hard currency), their ability to generate more of it, and to move it around. This need is even greater for governments under sanctions.
There are other benefits to maintaining connections to black market actors, but money is probably the biggest factor here.
Iran is the source of much of the drugs in the region, there’s been plenty of reporting on this for many years, with a lot more since the other weeks drone attacks. Israel happens to receive some of those drugs yes. Along with Jordan, Syria and Iraq.
I had to look it up. That’s CBD hash?
