what WILL happen is that we’ll keep doing exactly what we’ve been doing since the beginning of the Cold War.

What I wish would happen is that we started seeing results (either in standard of living or practical gain for the US) for the aid we give. As it is, we give the aid, and most of the nations in question give us the finger if the subject is actually important to them… And also seeing that ‘standard of living’ aid being appropriated in a reasonable way.

Pissing in the wind I know. But thats what I think would be ‘right’.

To come full circle, us threatening to withhold aid from Israel over the peace process is exactly what we should be doing, since we’re giving them the damn money anyways. The problem is they’ll almost certainly call our bluff, keep doing what they want, and have the threat fall through.
