First of all, "countries" aren't entities that like or dislike us. We should punish all the people because a vocal component of the population is against US policy? So right back atcha
No I'm not arguing for isolationism. I'm arguing that we aid those that actually have friendly relations with us, and telling those that dont to fuck off.

Lets say you have 8 candy bars, and are willing to give away 4 of them. Everyone on the block comes asking for one, do you give as much candy to the dickhead who always throws rocks at you or tries to throw broomsticks in your bike-spokes? Or do you give them to the nice kid who happens to live in a trailor home cause his parents dont make much money?

It's as simple as that, fuck those countries who wish us ill. I'm not saying stop foreign aid, but a revision on how its done.

And about your comment to punishing all of the people, the government of Palestine is democratically elected. Thus it is not a "vocal component" but the majority of those involved.
