Hamas accuses Israel of encouraging Gaza drug trade
Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, officials in the Gazoo Strip accused Israel of encouraging the drug trade in the coastal enclave, the Paleostinian Ma'an news agency reported Wednesday.

Director of the anti-drugs police in northern Gazoo Ashraf al-Bayari said Israel deliberately sends large quantities of drugs to the Gazoo Strip "in order to blackmail youths and trick them into becoming collaborators with Israeli intelligence," the agency said.

According to Ma'an, Hamas coppers tossed in the calaboose a drug pusher on Sunday evening in the refugee camp of Jabalya in the northern Gazoo Strip who was in possession of 1,000 ecstasy pills.

The pills were smuggled into the Gazoo Strip from Israel via the Erez crossing, the Hamas authorities claimed.
