These are the foreign aid figures from the Washington Report on Middle Eastern Affairs. If you wish to know how much PAC money your congressman received just type in WRMEA.
I consider money spent on a democracy, that helped us during the cold war, that took out the Frogs giving Iraq a nuclear reactor, that is fighting a war against the same Islamic scum that killed thousands of US citizens. Far more worthwhile than the money spent on Muslimes and your mother's foodstamps.
