You knew you were lying. Well, here's the actual figure. The ANNUAL foreign aid given by US is about $18 billion. That is about 50 million a day. And of this 18 billion, 3 billion goes to Israel alone -- 1.2 billion in economic aid and 1.8 billion in military aid. Even if you include the bribes that were given to some members of the coalition of the unwilling (to make them "willing" partners!), it would not get anywhere near even one-tenth of a billion a day.

You have completely disqualified yourself from any further substantive discussion on any issue... GZ Message 19947402 There's more if you want to chuckle some more GROUND ZERO.
