We should give limited aid to those whose behavior is in our best interests. We should cut the cord with any country embarrassing us or acting against our interests. Want to be your own country? Okay by me. But I keep my cash. You know who - are you listening?

50,000 troops in Japan, and Japan would be happy to see them out. The biggest receiver of aid is Israel, for more guns, and more hatred of America

US foreign aid to Israel will rise by US$225 million in fiscal year 2010.

Egypt will receive $1.3 billion in aid in 2010, and Jordan will receive $540 million. The budget signed by Obama, for the first time, also grants $500 million to the Palestinian Authority. The aid also includes $100 million to be used by US General Keith Dayton, who is in charge of training the Palestinian security forces in the West Bank. This is a small part of it.and yes we should stop it.
