A published column in Israel National News has revealed the stunning amount of American taxpayer moneys that were delivered to terrorists and terror-supporting regimes under Joe Biden's administration.
The report from Daniel Greenfield reveals that USAID, the entrenched team of bureaucrats that President Donald Trump is now disbanding and eliminating, moving only its necessary functions to the State Department, gave $9.3 billion to Islamic terror states that killed 3,000 American soldiers. "And over $18 billion to Islamic terrorist states."
The report noted over the last two years alone, USAID "doled out $2.3 billion for 'humanitarian assistance'" to Rep. Ilhan Omar's native Somalia.
"Last year it reported a request for $1.6 billion in aid and even in December 2024, with the Biden administration on the way out the door, it sent an additional $29 million," Greenfield reported. "USAID support for Somalia had doubled under the Biden administration and with $3.3 billion from USAID allocated in the last 5 years."
The report noted beneficiaries of the funding included Somalia and "other terrorist entities" of the Taliban in Afghanistan, the Houthis in Yemen, and Hamas in Gaza.
USAID dispatched $2.1 billion to Gaza since the terrorists there attacked Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
Another $3.7 billion was sent to Afghanistan "since the Taliban took over" in the hours following Biden's catastrophic withdrawal of American troops, a scheme that left behind, under the control of the terrorists, Americans, American allies, and billions of dollars worth of American war machinery.
"The money was so unaccountable that USAID refused to cooperate with SIGAR: the government watchdog tracking spending in Afghanistan intent on blocking money from aiding terrorists," Greenfield reported.
And he said while the U.S. was "at war" with the Houthis, and the Islamic terrorists were firing on U.S. Navy ships, USAID transferred $2.7 billion to Yemen in 2024. Over five years, that total was $3.4 billion.
"Other Islamic terrorist states that have heavily drawn on USAID include Pakistan which harbored Osama bin Laden, but benefited from $600 million in the last five years. While some American towns and cities lacked clean drinking water, USAID labored to build plants for Pakistan's majority Muslim population even while it engaged in the persecution of Christians," he reported.
And the now-disintegrating agency gave over $700 million to Iraq over the last five years despite its being governed by "Iranian puppets whose militias have been firing on American soldiers."
Syria? It got $3.4 billion from USAID, and the agency sent $1.1 billion to Lebanon, which is run by Hezbollah.
"While USAID is unable to function in Iran, between Yemen, Lebanon, Syria and Iraq, over $8 billion was sent to Iranian puppet regimes aligned with terrorism," he reported.
The listing did not include tax money sent to countries that are "actively in conflict with the U.S."
Greenfield questioned, "Is sending $18 billion to Islamic terror states really helping our national security … ."
