America wouldn't let 9/11 families sue Saudi Arabia but is happy to steal food from the mouths of Afghan children. What an awful, disgusting, immoral move.

You want to know why America is hemorrhaging soft power around the world? It's shit like this. A country this immoral and hypocritical has *no* place on the world stage as some sort of "universalist" organizing principle.
They steal your bread, take half of it, then give you the other half as "humanitarian aid" - as charity - and then expect you to thank them for their generosity and humanity. This is America.
"What if this money goes to the Taliban?" Two things:
- The Taliban is now the de facto government of Afghanistan. The US guaranteed that when it pulled out and handed the the country
- You don't have to give them cash. Take the money, buy food, send food. It's not rocket science
