Spain tops world in hashish seizures

If this sliver of a news story is to be believed, Spain is all up in the hashish business:

Spain accounted for 54 percent of the world's hashish haul last year, way ahead of Pakistan, France, Morocco and Iran, the state prosecutor's office said Monday cited by AFP.

A total of 450.8 tonnes of hashish was seized in 2006, of which more than 50 percent was found in the southern Andalucia province, a report said. Andalucia is near Morocco, one of the main spots on the drug smuggling route.

People of Spain, on behalf of all of us here at DoseNation, please accept this honorary blue ribbon for, uh, getting caught a lot. Or something. The story also notes that "46.6 tonnes of cocaine was uncovered in Spain last year, the third biggest haul worldwide." Overachievers!
