Why is Lebanon getting $157 million, but Hurricane Helene only got $750 million in relief?

I'm not understandijg this. Lebanon is the belligerent. All it had to do was not bomb Israel for months and months, and no war would of happened. They should be funding their own relief fund. If they had enough money to fund a useless war, you have enough money to help your own people.

The hurricane victims are our own people. Distant, red handed Lebanon got 1/5th what several US states devestated got. This makes no sense. All that money should of gone to Americans, and alot more.

Seriously. Lebanon just starts crap for no reason. Has a history of screwing with us. Why are we playing along with their twisted little games?

Why don’t you ask your Republican Senators and Representatives in Congress, who left out billions of dollars in FEMA’s Disaster Relief Fund? You can read about it here:

Every dollar they send offshore goes to NGOs who are immune to audits..
Make every penny able to be audited and watch how congress and the senate lose appetite for Aide

If the impacted residents of Appalachia raised Ukrainian flags, they'd get funds a lot more quickly.

Let's first hear about how Trump doled out money - or not - to his own countrymen in times of disaster.
based on whether or not they were predominantly dems or repubs...

@rinkydinkydoink , don’t relive the past, there is real Americans suffering and our tax dollars are going to terrorists.

Didn’t you hear ? Trump set up a collection for donations to hurricane victims.
You know like him and his golf course.

He also doled it out to illegals. From the Washington Post:

That's because the government is funding terrorism. They are allowing DOMESTIC terrorist to pour in through our open borders, they hate Jews, they have bleeding hearts for Hamas and Palestine, however.

Add on top the $8billion to israel and its clear to see "government" is a system of theft. They aren't even hiding it.

That sounds like pootin propaganda. In America Congress has to authorize and fund disaster relief programs. They went on vacation so they wouldn't have to do it.

The people who lost their property are pretty much out of luck. Their insurance companies will not cover the damages. And for the few people who did have flood insurance, they may not get paid if they were previously flooded. The people should simply move to other States and demand that the local governments put them up in hotels like they do the illegal aliens.
