Should the U.S continue sending billions of dollars in foreign aid to countries like Libya, Egypt and Pakistan that are less than friendly towards the United States?

No. I feel we should halt all aid to any country that is not an ally and on friendly terms. We send them billions every year and all they do is hate us and burn our flag.F@#%%&% them!

We are upside down in trade for beginners. I agree. Maybe just buy off the Saudis and call it a day. That's what its all about isn't it? We stay in the middle east for a reason. And it not about humanitarian aid.

I do agree with u but i think about the children and people they are the once who will suffer! And i know its those peopople are the same once burning the flag and hating america! But thats what they were taught all there lifes! They dont know any better! Its the same as teaching an old dog new tricks! Or teaching a nice animal to be mean!

The sad fact of the matter is,that we are hated everywhere. The world cries about "american imperialism" , really? We do not take land or resouces even when we could. The basic implied threat of our military might prevents many smaller nations who would engage in actual imperialism and taking the land of their neighbors. I dont like that we are acting like the world police. But wow,do they have to slap us in the face with one hand while begging for help with the other? Just a frustrated citizens opinion.
