It is a myth that alcohol is a gateway drug causing people to progress to marijuana, cocaine, etc.
There are no real gateway drugs, it's a term used for propaganda purposes. That being said if you view it as "which two drugs do drug users try first?" the answer is alcohol and caffeine.
The theory that marijuana is a gateway drug is a myth. Propagated by the anti-drug community, which has little or no evidence to support it. There is actually some theories that suggest that alcohol and tobacco are the true gateway drugs. So in no way is marijuana a gateway drug. It ultimately comes down to the will of the person who decides to do drugs, not the drug itself.

Marijuana may act as a stimulant, depressant, or hallucinogen and can be deadly if combined with alcohol.
In all developed countries caffeine is the most used drug and alcohol is the most used depressant drug.

Yes, it is a benzodiazapine that calms down the "jitters" from withdrawal from alcohol.
Most people say that Alcohol and Nicotine (Cigarettes) are two of the highest gateway drugs. Even though these drugs might not be the case for everyone. People can easily drink without getting addicted and smoke without getting addicted (but that's a small case).
