I realize you probably don't read the WP or the NYT, but there has beena series of exposees on what we spent in Afghanistan (1.3T) and how little has been accomlished.  But anytime you want to know, you can read the legislation that will give you a good idea.  As far as milititary aid, some of the aid is used to buy U.S. weapons and allows us the economies of scale to buy what our military needs.  It's a shell game to some extent - different colors of money and how they can be used.
