    Any country that has Islam as the primary religion, thats the reason its banned due to their belief system.

    The sale of alcohol would actually provide much needed tax for their governments, but that aint happening.

    As banned as pot is in the UK then

    Cos I have been to all those places and never had trouble drowning my sorrows at being in such places

    Banning something just makes it more expensive, Khamis Mushayt had a still that kept half of Asir Province Happy, probably still does

  • Banned in ....

    Saudi, Kuwait, Yemen (north and south), Qatar and a couple of others. I used to go to dubai a lot with an ex girlfriend, we got pissed most weekends!! We had some really good nights out there ...

    You can drink in Bahrain (I used to live there) ... hotels, restraunts and clubs are the only places with licenses ... you can use the 'off licences' - gulf cellar and bmmi are 2 of them there.
