There is another place where you can do that, but it is a peaceful place and I won't tell you where it is.
Also, I don't agree with your interpretation. Investing in dates is a lifetime investment. I doubt that this would be the exact reason for their politics in that area. If you plant a date tree today, you can expect to start having positive cash flow in > 15 years from now. I think there are more immediate considerations (or other crops with a quicker turnaround) like maybe nuclear bombs and guns. [1]
