From the Camp David peace accords in 1978 until 2000 (the latest year for which figures are available), the United States has subsidized Egypt’s armed forces with over $38 billion worth of aid. Egypt receives about $2 billion annually—$1.3 billion in foreign military financing and about $815 million in economic support fund assistance —making it the second largest regular recipient of conventional U.S. military and economic aid, after Israel.

Mysteriously, they are seldom mentioned as number two by the people who wax lyrical about how much aid Israel gets.
