"That government has received nearly $60 billion in aid from the U.S. taxpayer since 1979." Why are we giving them aid? Was it to balance the mid east politics... Is it necessary to continue with aid or we can move this money to Iraq. I hope congress reviews the foreign aid package to see how money should be spent with Iraq problems now sucking up dollars big time. If we are giving aid to some of these countries we should expect some of their troops and human resources to be assisting in Iraq recovery.
