Ken,
First off let me thank you for starting this this thread...
I do not know if what I am thinking falls within it's format but here goes....

Just thinking about the fact that the USA is testing the winds as to which countries might join us in the task of kicking ass and taking names later...brings up a lot of questions......

I found this on another thread ...

<<<CNN reported last night forgiving 30 billion in debt is included in the deal.
US Secretary of State Colin Powell on Saturday said Pakistan had been "very forthcoming" in its cooperation on possible US action and said the US was appreciative of that -- remarks that could be seen as a signal Washington is preparing to dip into its coffers.>>>

This prompted me to try to find out just how much forign aid we have spread to the different countries around the world....So far I have been unsuccessfull at finding that number....does anyone have a way to find out?..might be an interesting or even shocking amount...just that $30 BILLION is shocking to me...remember OUR tax $$ paid this...and why am I forced to fagitabout the repayment.

Any ideas?
