How can we Help the Most?

[Richard]

1.  Cut off all foreign aid except to close allies.  That, at this point, involves Israel, Britain, Australia, and possibly a few others such as Canada (Star Wars), Poland, and a few I don't know about.  Nothing is going to Africa.  Nothing to Latin America.  Nothing to Asia.

2.  Repay debts.

3.  Ignore rest of the world, unless a close ally needs help.

4.  Have citizens donate to relief organizations.  Your taxes should go to this.  It is not the government's responsibility to help.

My point is, if we are the sole remaining superpower and have the responsibility to save the world from terror, don't we have the same responsibilty in this case?

No you don't.  And this is coming from a foreigner.  You owe us nothing.

[Richard]

OK so if Bill Gates falls down and break his leg, he should help himself because he is rich, but if a some poor guy breaks his leg it is expected that Bill Gates should help him?

No.  Charity starts at home.  Let the rest of the world cope.  You don't owe us anything.  Help is nice, but NOT REQUIRED and if you give even a dime you should be receiving nothing but thanks, not complaints for more handouts.
