Click here for more on it's > history < in the region. Egypt >> Background: officially the Arab Republic of Egypt, is a country mainly in North Africa, with the Sinai Peninsula forming a land bridge in Southwest Asia. Egypt is thus a transcontinental country, and a major power in Africa, the Mediterranean Basin, the Middle East and the Muslim world. Covering an area of about 1,010,000 square kilometers (390,000 sq mi), Egypt is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, the Gaza Strip and Israel to the northeast, the Red Sea to the east, Sudan to the south and Libya to the west. Egypt is one of the most populous countries in Africa and the Middle East. The great majority of its over 81 million people live near the banks of the Nile River, in an area of about 40,000 square kilometers (15,000 sq mi), where the only arable land is found. The large areas of the Sahara Desert are sparsely inhabited. About half of Egypt's residents live in urban areas, with most spread across the densely populated centres of greater Cairo, Alexandria and other major cities in the Nile Delta. Monuments in Egypt such as the Giza pyramid complex and its Great Sphinx were constructed by its ancient civilization. Its ancient ruins, such as those of Memphis, Thebes, and Karnak and the Valley of the Kings outside Luxor, are a significant focus of archaeological study. The tourism industry and the Red Sea Riviera employ about 12% of Egypt's workforce. The economy of Egypt is one of the most diversified in the Middle East, with sectors such as tourism, agriculture, industry and service at almost equal production levels. In early 2011, Egypt underwent a revolution, which resulted in the ousting of President Hosni Mubarak after nearly 30 years in power. Presidential elections are scheduled for May 2012.

Check out WBH's stoners' guide to the world! Updated: 12/12/07 | Cairo Marijuana prices and more ... Cairo - Smoking tolerance level: (1-5) 3; Legislation: Illegal to possess or consume marijuana, and very long jail time, though the laws are not set in stone and will be dependant on the judge's ruling. It's considerably hard to be caught with hash or weed within Cairo. There are no worries of cops if you happen to be driving down the road with a joint in hand as long as there are no road-blocks. Try and stay in secluded areas: apartements and hotel rooms are best. Many cops wont even bother you especially if you are a foreigner. If you do get in a situation, show your Foreign Passport and speak in your national tongue, keep saying "embassy" and you probably will be left alone. Having a heavy load of weed or hash can however be rough. Jail is not the place you want to go in Egypt. And currently, police can hold you 24 hours beforeletting you see your embassy. So be cool, just as you would anywhere else. Law enforcement: From place to place it varies but generally the police are ignorant and don't place a priority they are sensitive to marijuana as being criminal as culturally its somewhat acceptable and has the highest majority of pot heads in the arab world. Though still take caution and dont place yourself in situations of needless risk. another reporter added :"Local cops wont bother you, but as soon as you see clean white uniforms, sunglasses, and walkie talkies stay cool, these are the officers and are not so leniant. Security guards in Hotels and such are unable to do anything so dont worry about them. They may complain but wont get you arrested, unless trouble is started. " Where to buy marijuana in Egypt: Like the rest of the middle east theres no seedy downtown alley or central park where dealers come up to you, though unlike the rest of the middle east asking someone usually yields good results, start some friendly chit chat with the locals and ask them to set you up, it should be fairly easy but be careful who you ask as some people are religious and will be offended. Taxi Drivers, Tour Guides, (occasionally the police!) waiters , coffee shop staff and normal people sipping tea will be more than happy to set you up, egyptian people are extremely friendly and likable and will leap at the chance to have a conversation with a foriegner( dont be scared there not try to hustle you, there genuinely friendly, its not uncommon to get invited for lunch and to spend time with thier families!), just make sure you dont ask middle class people or women or religious scholars that wont yield anything. Marijuana there is a drug for the poor, alcohol is seen as pre stigious and classy and notably unaffordble to the normal egyptian. though egypt in general is pretty easy to score in, take in mind egyptians think that all tourists are loaded with money and willl try their best to make u part with as much money as you can. another reporter added: "It's easy to find weed or hash anywhere in Cairo but be cautious. Many-a-times have I gone to buy an irsh or 3 grams of hash, and come with amphetimines and other additives such as Ping spray, coffee, henna, camel shit, etc. Look for hash that is lighter brown and softer, prefferably maleable. Ask local taxi-drivers if no religious prayers are being blasted through the speakers, or see any religious symbols in the taxi. Waiters in shisha cafes (hookah/water pipe cafes) depending on the area and quality of establishment will be able to hook you up. When in Cairo, go to Road 9 in Maadi, there is a hookah place near the Metro Station without a name or building. There are chairs outside around white tables, ask the waiter to take in order (english is fine anywhere in Maadi) ask for some Sheesha and tea or whatever you may want, when the waiter returns with your stuff ask him for something special or something "else" to smoke, dont be hesitant to wink. " Egypt marijuana prices: Prices Vary greatly depending on your nationality, whites will be charged a fortune for whats relatively cheap! arabs blacks and brown colored people can expect to pay less yet still ripped off. Bargain it down and remeber in general its cheap and you should pay no more than 5USD for 10 grams of good stuff. Also bring a bit of cheap liqour with you this can easily be traded for a good pile of marijuana , by doing this you avoid the pitfalls of being overcharged, and you get an excellent deal seeing as how u get more than the bottles worth in marijuana. another reporter added: "Regular Hash-100LE an irsh (coin) - 3 grams. Better quality(i.e. morrocan, lebanese...)-120-150 an irsh- 3 grams; Weed- 20LE for \"a paper\" 1/4 o. Be careful about the weed as well, its not uncommon to have additives in it either. If weed is what you desire, don\'t expect much. Ask for sudanese or morrocan even afghani. " Brands: Maroc Hash including red blonde and honey, as well as oil, Sudanese Bongo, Lebanese Red and Blonde. And the local sinai weed though thats getting considerably hard to find nowadays. another reporter added: "Egyptian hash-hard, dark color. Lebanese Blonde-light golden brown, softer; Buscuit Hash \"biscoota\"-soft light brown; Morrocan Black- black, clay-like. Aim for light brown and soft most of the time unless dark and soft. Look for any imperfections in the middle of the peice after you break it. Look for color splotches, any foreign matter other than tricromes. If anything seems foreign DENY DENY DENY. More information: If you can find it go for the hash oil, potent and nowadays rarely found outside the middle east, and enjoy some bongo in the local shisha pipe (hookah). ...

Medical marijuana around the world - Published at 2006-06-22 in Cannabis information » Medical cannabis | Marijuana is looked at very differently around the world. For example, in the Netherlands cannabis has been legally available for recreational use in coffee shops for several years. Thus it has also been available without a prescription for medical uses. Here we take a look at various countries look at the term “medical marijuana”. Source - http://www.420source.com/post/34 Erowid Cannabis Vault : Legal Status, U.S. LAW | Both Cannabis and Tetrahydrocannabinols, the active chemicals contained in Cannabis plants, are Schedule I in the United States. This means they are federally illegal to cultivate, buy, possess, or distribute (sell, trade or give) in all forms (cannabis plants, extracts, hash, hash oil, thc, etc) except synthetic THC (Marinol) which is Schedule III. The federal scheduling of Cannabis was disputed in 1988 by Judge Francis Young, an administrative law judge for the DEA, who recommended that marijuana be reclassified as schedule II on the grounds that if a respectable minority of doctors endorse it, then it has a "currently accepted medical use". Visit: http://www.erowid.org/plants/cannabis/cannabis_law.shtml   International Law, LEGAL Resources   Legal and medical status of cannabis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia | Cannabis is in Schedule IV of the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, making it subject to special restrictions. Article 2 provides for the following, in reference to Schedule IV drugs: A Party shall, if in its opinion the prevailing conditions in its country render it the most appropriate means of protecting the public health and welfare, prohibit the production, manufacture, export and import of, trade in, possession or use of any such drug except for amounts which may be necessary for medical and scientific research only, including clinical trials therewith to be conducted under or subject to the direct supervision and control of the Party. This provision, while apparently providing for the limitation of cannabis to research purposes only, also seems to allow some latitude for nations to make their own judgments. The official Commentary on the Single Convention indicates that Parties are expected to make that judgment in good faith.

Monday, April 18, 2005 | Finally, the drug problem is coming to an end in Egypt. They are starting to arrest those who sell t-shirts that display weed leaves on them, for advocating drug use. That'll end drug addiction in Egypt. That'll show those drug dealers. I think it has gotten really better in Egypt. Atleast I don't hear that much of those hardcore drugs in high circulation anymore, Cocaine and the like. Weed has become very popular instead, replacing that dangerous and highly addictive Cocaine stuff, which was consuming alot of our national income --really expensive stuff. So, druggies are getting smarter, and patriotic. The cheap druggies go for Bango, that's the lousy kind of weed for those who want to make a cheap head. The guys with quality heads go for the more expensive Marijuana (Hashish). They're (weed) actually so popular, you can sometimes smell them while walking peacefully in any street in Cairo (and you were wondering what else you can do on Cairo streets). ... and btw, bango is bad in egypt because it is not cultivated correctly.

Senate approves medical marijuana bill - Monday, December 15, 2008 | TRENTON BUREAU: A Senate committee today cleared a measure that would allow medical use of marijuana in New Jersey. The Senate Health, Human Services and Senior Citizens Committee voted to approve the long-stalled bill by a 6 to 1 margin; two senators abstained. The bill calls for creating “alternative treatment centers” where people with chronic and terminal diseases would be allowed access to marijuana. Supporters say marijuana is a viable treatment option to alleviate pain in many cases. “It is the definition of basic human decency that we do whatever we can to ease the pain and suffering of people living with severe chronic and terminal diseases,” said bill sponsor Sen. Nicholas Scutari, D-Union. “When all other avenues of currently-approved pain relief have been exhausted, we need to give doctors the freedom to prescribe medical marijuana to give their patients a measure of comfort and dignity in the face of their debilitating diseases. This bill is about the most humane, compassionate option for those state residents who have nowhere else to turn in managing their illnesses.” If ultimately approved by the full Legislature and signed by Governor Corzine, New Jersey would be the 14th state to allow medical use of marijuana.   ...   Visit - https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=106356.

The study, which was conducted over a two year period and included 775 patients from the USA, Africa, and Puerto Rico, assessed the use of cannabis as a symptom management approach for anxiety, depression, fatigue, diarrhea, nausea, and peripheral neuropathy.  27% of survey participants reported using cannabis for medicinal purposes. Researchers wrote that cannabis use “was rated slightly more effective than antidepressants for anxiety and depression, Imodium for diarrhea, [over the counter] (OTC) medications for fatigue, and anti-epileptics and OTC medications for neuropathy” while cannabis was rated “slightly less effective for nausea than either prescribed or OTC medications.”   Authors concluded that cannabis “is perceived by users as at least as effective as prescribed medications in symptom management.”   ...   Visit - http://safeaccessnow.org/blog/?cat=22.

Informational Guide on Medical Cannabis | If you have ever heard of the song, “Lets Go Get Stoned,” as sung by Ray Charles or Joe Cocker, you know the lyrics were referring to getting high or using cannabis aka marijuana. This mind altering drug goes by other names as well; names such as weed, pot, joint, blunt, hash and mary jane are quite common among users. Cannabis is a plant that contains a chemical called cannabinoids or cannabinolidic acids. Another substance that is found in cannabis is THC, or Tetrahydrocannabinol, which gives the users that “high” sensation.

Marijuana is considered to be a schedule 1 controlled substance today, because of the THC, which can be highly potent, depending upon the concentration factor of the THC.

Their chief concern was that legal medical access would send the message that cannabis is safe. The presidents can, however, lay their safety concerns to rest because the scientific literature overwhelmingly confirms that cannabis is both an effective and safe medicine. The Cannabis Safety Profile. The journal PHARMACOLOGICAL REVIEWS reports that decades of research prove that, "Compared with legal drugs...marijuana does not pose greater risks." Yet based upon mortality statistics, we can safely conclude that cannabis is one of the safest medical drugs known, for, while prescription drugs, defined as safe by the FDA, kill up to 27,000 and aspirin up to 1,000 Americans per year, cannabis kills 0 per year.
