bb,
We're trying to reduce welfare in this country, should we now export it to other countries so they "feel good" about US.
If you want to help feed them then please feel free to use your own funds to do so, as I'm sure there are charities that send help to Afganistan. However my $$ will go to help those effected by this murderous act, and those that support the actions of the Taliban and Bin Laden should be eliminated. For Afganistan people who don't suport them, they can flee to N. Afganistan or Pakistan , the US has commited $$ to help in that effort. 2 Mil I believe.
I also support eliminating all foreign aide to countries that are in opposition to the UNITED STATES, and cutting aide to those who are not. 1 exception to that is Israel, I think we ought to do all we can for them, because they are not fair weather allis.
I hate pacifism when the situation clearly calls for military action.
