Who Gets US Foreign Aid

Seems to me that US foreign aid is largely a waste. We are essentially arming countries with weapons. I do not consider this "aid."

1. Israel: $2.4 billion
2. Egypt: $1.7 billion
3. Pakistan: $798 million
4. Jordan: $688 million
5. Kenya: 586 million
6. South Africa: $574 million
7. Mexico: $551 million
8.Colombia: $541 million
9. Nigeria: $491 million
10. Sudan: $479 million
