Many of the various Middle East dictatorships have long been in the pockets of the US government, awash in aid to acquire the various truncheons and tear gas that they tried to use to keep the public in line. But as the Arab Spring has begun ousting regimes in places like Egypt, the revolutionaries are seeing the US trying to shift funding to various political groups, and are expressing concern that the lack of transparency in where US money goes could mean that freedom and US subsidies really might be mutually exclusive.
if by aid you mean bribe, then yea.
A little late, isn't it? US AID sponsored the "revolutionaries"! Read "US training quietly nurtured young Arab democrats" in the Washington Post:
"But it's the USAID grants, from an $800 million budget for developing "political competition" and "civil society" in 67 nations, that have proved vital to activists in a half-dozen Arab lands, from Morocco to Yemen."
First of all, there is no Arab Spring, Secondly, they're all in the hands of the American darkness.
Americans give bribe no aid.
