Some VERY Interesting Numbers

Submitted by Greg Wood

The United States gives out $13.3 billion tax dollars in direct Foreign
Aid annually.   The United States is above and beyond the single
most generous benefactor of the United Nations, donating $2.4 billion
dollars of YOUR money, to primarily third-world dictators.

This amount is 25% of the United Nations budget.

In addition, the United States also gives another $1.4 billion tax
dollars to United Nations' programs and agencies. The American taxpayers
fund more for the United Nations than ALL of the other 177 member nations
COMBINED.

What most Americans do not realize is that the vast majority of the
recipients of the of US Foreign Aid routinely vote against the wishes of
the United States in the United Nations at an average rate of  74%.

In other words, of the $13.3 billion tax dollars invested in direct
Foreign Aid only about 26% or $3.5 billion went to support people who
endorsed American initiatives or causes.

A staggering $9.8 billion tax dollars went to causes and people who were
and are in open and direct opposition to the United States' interests and
objectives.

Listed below are the actual voting records of various Arabic/Islamic
States which are recorded in both the US State Department and United
Nations' records:

Kuwait votes against the United States 67% of the time.
Qatar votes against the United States 67% of the time.
Morocco votes against the United States 70% of the time.
United Arab Emirates votes against the U. S. 70% of the time.
Jordan votes against the United States 71% of the time.
Tunisia votes against the United States 71% of the time.
Saudi Arabia votes against the United States 73% of the time.
Yemen votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Algeria votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Oman votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Sudan votes against the United States 75% of the time.
Pakistan votes against the United States 75% of the time.
Libya votes against the United States 76% of the time.
Egypt votes against the United States 79% of the time.
Lebanon votes against the United States 80% of the time.
India votes against the United States 81% of the time.
Syria votes against the United States 84% of the time.
Mauritania votes against the United States 87% of the time.

US Foreign Aid to those that hate us:

Egypt, for example, after voting 79% of the time against the United
States, still receives $2 billion annually in US Foreign Aid.

Jordan votes 71% against the United States and receives $192,814,000
annually in US Foreign Aid.

Pakistan votes 75% against the United States receives $6,721,000 annually
in US Foreign Aid.

India votes 81% against the United States receives $143,699,000 annually
in US Foreign Aid.

In the last year The Taliban terrorized the people of Afghanistan and
gave safe haven to Osama Bin Laden, they received $143,000,000 in US
Foreign Aid.

Sudan voted 75% against the United States and received $1,121,000 in US
Foreign Aid. (The US State Department stated that the Sudanese government
is guilty of providing a safe haven for a variety of terrorist groups
including Osama Bin Laden's organization, The Egyptian Jihad, The
Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and Hamas. The Islamic government has also
conducted a literal reign of terror against the Christians living in the
southern part of the country.)

The Palestinian Authority will receive $500 million dollars in U.S.
Foreign Aid over the next five years(!!!) This happened due to the Oslo
"Agreement" of 1993, a deal which was endorsed and avidly supported by
now New York Senator Hillary Clinton, who was then First Lady.  The
Clinton Administration sought to establish good relations with terrorist
groups despite their support of terrorism and anti-Western stances. The
Palestinians were seen on ABC News openly celebrating and dancing in the
streets at the news of both suicide bombings on Sept. 11th.

Israel, it must be noted, receives three billion in US Foreign Aid.
However, for the last five years it has an average record of voting with
the United States 94% of the time.

There is clearly no incentive for most countries to support the United
States, as they will receive US Foreign Aid regardless of their stances.

Perhaps it is time for the United States to deny things such as money,
scientific, technological, medical expertise, and education to nations
who simply will not assist or protect American interests?
