Will Israel fully legalize use of cannabis?

The inauguration of Israel’s 35th government on May 17 was a particularly depressing event for many Israelis.

After all, they were watching one of the most bloated governments (34 ministers) in all of Israel’s history take office. But for the hundreds of thousands of cannabis users in Israel, it signified a happy change. For the first time in years, there is a real chance that cannabis will be fully legalized.
