But I believe that all foreign aid should be ended because I, like most Americans, oppose it on principle.
I was ALMOST to the point of completely agreeing with Farah (scary thought indeed!!) until this sentence. I would LOVE to see some stats behind that, but I know I won't, being that it is STILL Joe Farah and WORLDNUTDAILY.

"[T]o suggest that it is appropriate to give away U.S. taxpayer dollars to a terrorist quasi-government of a non-existent state that hates everything the United States stands for defies reason."No kidding.

.....to suggest that it is appropriate to give away U.S. taxpayer dollars to a terrorist quasi-government of a non-existent state that hates everything the United States stands for defies reason. Pat has his reason -- it hurts Israel. ....and that's all he needs to know.

I like Pat. I've met him and he's a good guy. But bring up Israel and Jews and he is as wrong as a man can be.

I agree about agreeing with Joe, which I do on occasion, and no, he doesn't have the stats. Whether you're supportive of foreign aid or not, it's a minor item. The big expenditures hide other portions of the budget.

pretty much.
It's just something that i've noticed about Farah's column.
there is generally some wholly unsupportable claim somewhere within it.

If Pat's managed to push Joe Farah away, he's really off in la-la land.

I have to wonder if the state of Israel were, say, a black nation, and the terrorists against them were, say, Latins, how much US foreign aid would Pat Buchanan want to give them. It seems to me none. Pat would consider that foolish. So what's Pat's motive in giving US money to the worst terrorist group in the world who are aligned with Iran and Syria? Class? Class? Answer? Anyone?

Buchanan and Farah disagreeing about the goings-on in the Middle East is nothing new. In fact, Pat's only supporters regarding the issue in question are far-leftists, neo-nazis, and of course Islamists.

Yet, Pat Buchanan, who as recently as December 2004 wrote passionately against foreign aid in all its ugly forms, has changed his tune. (Snip)
What would motivate a man to turn his back on lifelong, principled opposition to that kind of wrong by defending the indefensible idea of aiding our sworn enemies with money picked out of the pockets of hard-working Americans?
Hmm...seems that you can take the man out of the Reich, but you can't take the Dhimmitude out of Buchanan!
Here, Pat...
Up the dosage until you can keep you right arm down!

Now, is that fair? People keep forgeting Pat had an uncle who died in the Nazi death camps. He fell right out of the tower.

"Foreign aid is wrong."
I'll second that.

The author seems puzzled as well.
