Those who remember Reich the politician as the champion of globalization and defender of economic policies which effectively destroyed millions of blue-collar jobs will find this kind of bloviation nauseating. Unless it's Tom Friedman, I can't think of another dissembling hyena who changes his spots more frequently, believing no one has noticed.
If it had not been marijuana it would have been some other illegal thing (cocaine, explosives). Although I am in favor of it, I'm not sure this case by itself proves the need for decriminalization. It's a bit of a logical leap.
Afghanistan also receives UNESCO funding. This nonsense will affect even US "nation-building" efforts there -- demonstrating once again how being servile to Israel is counter to American interests.
"Jewish and democratic" is every bit an oxymoron as "Christian and democratic" or "Islamic and democratic." Privileging one ethnic, racial, or religious group and its laws or practices over others is simply incompatible with democracy. This was a principle that was recognized at the founding of the United States. It shocks me that so many American Zionists seem to not really believe it and that so many Israelis can't see it.
