As usual, this "foreign aid" is a front for political and military posturing. Do you think this would be different under a McCain administration?
The natives were the original "owners" here...would you give up your home first so they could have it back? Talk about caged shoots...
Yes Saudi and Egyptian Nationals...cities of their perspective counties. As Pakistan does...they will accept any hand out given to them. They all hate us over there. Whom ever we offer money too that is our ally is at the time. The democrat news reported just the other day, however, that the Taliban is pinched between US and Paki troops into 2 regions of Pakistan...I guess our money isn't going to waste.
US dollars...not voter dollars. Tax payer dollars. Voters vs. taxpayers are very different terms. The Taliban has been knocked down quite a bit from what has been served. If we had been in Iraq and Afghanistan do you really think that you would be as comfortable as if the weren't? No, I am not implying anything of the sort. I am implying however, that when the people are given "alcohol" and shiny things to play with they don't see the real picture. Big government on which we will all depend on and be criminalized if we aren't dependent on it. It is already happening with government health care...a couple stated have already criminalized not carrying government health insurance. Wealth envy and wealth redistribution...socialism.
