Supported by US taxpayers (who are almost forbidden by law to question or criticise them?) Sounds like the perfect mob scam.
Why do we have to support these guys?
What a way to destroy our kids' bodies and souls:

Two elderly Israeli men were arrested by British police Tuesday night for attempting to smuggle 12.5 tons of marijuana into the country, the Sun reported on Wednesday.
Moshe Kedar 81, and his younger accomplice Mordechai Hersch, 67, were arrested after Kedar was reportedly caught on surveillance video receiving a cell phone and $10,000 cash from members of a London drug gang.
According to the Sun, police needed six sessions in a special incinerator to dispose of the marijuana, valued at around $50 million.
The Sun calculated the haul as enough to make 36 million marijuana cigarettes ? or one for every man and woman in Britain.
2. Israelis at center of ecstasy drug trade
By Nathan Guttman
Israel is at the center of international trade in the drug ecstasy, according to a document published last week by the U.S. State Department.
In recent years, organized crime in Israel, some with links to criminal organizations in Russia, have come to control the distribution of the drug in Europe, according to a Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs document.
The same document also points out that Israeli criminal groups have a hand in the distribution of ecstasy in North America.
During 2000, 80 percent of the ecstasy seized in North America originated in the Netherlands, which is the largest production center, along with Belgium and Poland. The State Department is certain that Israeli organizations are linked to the laboratories in the Netherlands and are responsible for the worldwide distribution.
"Israeli drug distribution organizations are currently the main source for distribution of the drug to groups inside the U.S., to smuggling through express mail services, through couriers on commercial flights and, recently, through air cargo," states the report. In the past two years, the U.S. has dealt more severely with ecstasy. Federal judges deal with smugglers in the ecstasy trade with the same severity as heroin and cocaine dealers
