Marijuana Wafts Into Grim Israel Election Campaign


Fraught with angst over the conflict with Palestinians and fed up with politicians who offer no clear way out, Israelis appear set to vote into parliament a party that would let them get legally high on marijuana.

Green Leaf, which not only wants to legalese cannabis but also plant it in toxic waste dumps to soak up heavy metals, is one of 29 parties vying for seats in the 120-member parliament in the January 28 general election.
