Default Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.

Thermodyne:
Here is a page I think very few people will dismiss as leftist propaganda.
Scroll down to Economic aid (Military aid is taken out).

http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/...esanddefs.html

$ 6.9 Billion, That’s a whooping 25 bucks per capita.

I know private American organizations do a great job.

World Bank:
Donations to the World Bank can hardly be considered Aid. I think Andrès will have a few chosen word to say on this. The World Bank together with some local politicians will have to take most/all of the blame for the wrecking of the Argentinean economy.
And, Norway and EU and the other OECD contries are equal partners with USA in the World Bank, so this is not USA bashing.
