It astounds me how people can compare aid going to Israel with aid going to "other" nations. Israel has been allied with the United States for a long time and will continue to be. Take that into consideration when thinking about how the US distributes its $$$!
If a good 'friend' of mine asked to borrow (or have) a large sum of money, I would hesitate less to give it to him rather than to a fairly new 'associate' of mine. It's just the way the world works... the US doesn't owe anyone shit!
Listed below are the actual voting records of various Arabic/Islamic States which are recorded in both the US State Department and United Nations' records:
Kuwait votes against the United States 67% of the time.
Qatar votes against the United States 67% of the time.
Morocco votes against the United States 70% of the time.
United Arab Emirates votes against the U. S. 70% of the time.
Jordan votes against the United States 71% of the time.
Tunisia votes against the United States 71% of the time.
Saudi Arabia votes against the United States 73% of the time.
Yemen votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Algeria votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Oman votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Sudan votes against the United States 75% of the time.
Pakistan votes against the United States 75% of the time.
Libya votes against the United States 76% of the time.
Egypt votes against the United States 79% of the time.
Lebanon votes against the United States 80% of the time.
India votes against the United States 81% of the time.
Syria votes against the United States 84% of the time.
Mauritania votes against the United States 87% of the time.
ISRAEL VOTES WITH THE UNITED STATES 94% OF THE TIME!!!!!
Do you see what I see here???
US Foreign Aid to those that hate the US:
Egypt, for example, after voting 79% of the time against the United States, still receives $2 billion annually in US Foreign Aid.
Jordan votes 71% against the United States and receives $192,814,000 annually in US Foreign Aid.
Pakistan votes 75% against the United States receives $6,721,000 annually in US Foreign Aid.
India votes 81% against the United States receives $143,699,000 annually in US Foreign Aid.
In the past couple of years The Taliban terrorized the people of Afghanistan and gave safe haven to Osama Bin Laden, they received $143,000,000 in US Foreign Aid.
Sudan voted 75% against the United States and received $1,121,000 in US Foreign Aid. (The US State Department stated that the Sudanese government is guilty of providing a safe haven for a variety of terrorist groups including Osama bin Laden's organization, The Egyptian Jihad, The Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and Hamas. The Islamic government has also conducted a literal reign of terror against the Christians living in the southern part of the country.)
The Palestinian Authority will receive $500 million dollars in US Foreign Aid over the next five years!!! This happened due to the Oslo" Agreement" of 1993, The Palestinians were seen on ABC News openly celebrating and dancing in the streets at the news of both suicide bombings on Sept. 11th.
Israel, it must be noted, receives three billion in US Foreign Aid.
However, as I noted above, for the last 5 years it has an average record of voting with the United States 94% of the time.
There is clearly no incentive for most countries to support the United States, as they will receive US Foreign Aid regardless of their stances.
Perhaps it is time for the United States to deny things such as money, scientific, technological, medical expertise, and education to nations who simply will not assist or protect American interests?
Worse yet, your Federal dollars go to and support all of the anti-American groups trying to destroy the "American way of life". Ya gotta love it!
