Call me cynical. Call me whatever you want to. But I do believe that these crazy grants to countries which HATE us serve the Congressmen that vote for them. That is, through whatever and however means, through 12 levels of misdirection, somehow, some way, a percentage of that money makes it back to D.C. into the pockets of the politicians who approved it. That's the only way it makes any sense. Otherwise, it is simply insanity.
