Can we reject the tens of millions we give to Egypt every year?

Nearly FOUR BILLION! Tens of millions, indeed, what pikers do you think we are?

I think we just seize the Sinai peninsula, Suez Canal, and any other part of Egypt we may find to our need. We've already paid the ingrates enough for it already.

We need a new state in that part of the world anyway, so many Americans now want to move to deserts, and Arizona and Nevada are about full.

Sinai and NW Saudi look like good candidates for a new territory and later state.

It's around $1.9 billion each year...!

Halt foreign aid to all countries except in the case of a 'humanitarian crisis' due to a 'natural event', i.e. flood, storm, etc.

I think I read that it’s more like 2 Billion.

Fine, if they don’t want us to use the Suez Canal, we can just sail right up the Nile and cut across the flooded plains after we rocket the Asswan High Dam.

Egypt gets 2 billion per year foreign aid from us. During Gulf War #1 we cancelled 6 billion dollar in loans they owed us.

This was the bribe to get their participation

Millions? We give Egypt $2 billion plus per annum, and we have done so for nearly a quarter-century.
