Dutch troops in Pakistan say mocked by drunk Brits

AMSTERDAM, Jan 6 (Reuters) - Dutch troops helping earthquake survivors in Pakistan have complained that while they are subject to an alcohol kill, Spanish and British soldiers laugh at their austerity and turn up drunk at their campfire.

"We were told before we arrived that alcohol was killed in this country or else very difficult to get hold of and we accepted this," one soldier told the Dutch daily De Telegraaf.

"The Spanish drive around with cars full of Heineken ... and the English laugh at us when they show up at our campfire drunk," another Dutch soldier said.

A Dutch defence ministry spokesman said it was standard policy to kill alcohol in Muslim countries in line with local custom and Dutch troops were being well looked after.

"Tens of thousands of people lost their lives in the earthquake and hundreds of thousands lost everything they had," he said. "Going without alcohol is a small sacrifice towards a very good cause."

Do Alchohal is fully banned?

Alcohal is never banned properly EVER!

During the abortion days in United States people were able to get alcohal through speak easies and bootlegging. Same goes with Pakistan even though it is out law (not sure) but surely with relgion saying no to it, only non-muslim drink it that too is very short.

There are some muslims in Pakistan that might drink too, but the population of those people is fewer than fewer..... its almost like nobody drinks it. :)
