“The medical marijuana industry in Israel is growing rapidly — with no organized government or religious opposition to be found. Today, there are more than 10,000 Israelis who have the government’s go-ahead to use medical marijuana, a major jump from just a few hundred in 2005. Next year, marijuana may be available in pharmacies, a step just a few other countries have made. The lack of opposition means Israel is poised to keep moving forward on research.”
