Is It Right For The USA To Keep Giving Aid To People That Hate Them? by tctrills(op): 11:30am On Feb 04, 2025
Below are the top ten recipients of US aid in the last 10 years.
Afghanistan
Israel
Jordan
Egypt
Ethiopia
Iraq
Nigeria
South Africa
Democratic Republic of the Congo
Syria
Afghan, Jordan, Egypt, Iraq, and Syria, are people that hate the US and would shout death to America without provocation. Why give aid to nations that hate you? The BBC reported that Nigerians in many northern states celebrated the September 11 attack. The US is Begining to learn that you can never buy friendship and some people's friendship isn't worth having.

The US is not "father Christmas" as you make it seem...

It's not free aid. They always have something to benefit directly or indirectly.

They are only promoting their own strategic interests with those aids!

So china and Russia are not benefiting from these countries abi? Yet you no fit see them giving aids to countries other than loans which they know you can't pay back. If USA are gaining directly or indirectly let the countries too stop letting them gain na and stop asking for Aids. Make Una lie another lie abeg.

As for Russia and China benefiting...


Strategies and policies differ. You just mentioned China giving out loans that's their own strategy. Russia also does same with mostly giving military hardware support etc.

How can the countries ask them to stop helping them when they too are benefiting from the aid? undecided

They is something called mutually beneficial. It's like scratch my back while I scratch yours.

The US is not father Christmas. They always put their self interest first!

Powerful countries put their interest first oga. Do you think you can become a Chinese citizen in china? Do you think you can own a landed property in china? Go read these things and decide for yourself if China isn't also into self interest. Russia those ones are earthly thugs all they do is gain from you and give you mindset of becoming a war lover. What Chinese firms are even doing to Nigerians speaks a lot of what their true color is over there. None of them be father Christmas na their pocket them dey fight for. When you start picking side that means you're just bias and pained.
