Recent allegations have surfaced regarding the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and its purported connections to terrorist organizations:

• Congressman Scott Perry’s Allegations: On February 13, 2025, during the inaugural hearing of the Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency, U.S. Congressman Scott Perry from Pennsylvania claimed that USAID has been funding terrorist groups, including Boko Haram, ISIS, and Al-Qaeda.
• Discovery of USAID Packages: Reports indicate that USAID-branded humanitarian packages were found among a Hezbollah weapons cache in Lebanon. This discovery has raised concerns about the diversion of aid to unintended recipients. nypost.com
• Historical Funding Concerns: Investigations have revealed that in the 1990s, USAID inadvertently funded the college tuition of Anwar al-Awlaki, who later became an Al-Qaeda terrorist with ties to the 9/11 hijackers.

In response to these concerns, President Trump has taken significant actions:

• Dismantling of USAID: Citing issues of mismanagement and the inadvertent funding of radical groups, President Trump, with support from Elon Musk leading the Department of Government Efficiency, has dismantled USAID. This move reduced the agency’s workforce from over 10,000 employees to approximately 300.

These developments underscore the complexities and challenges in ensuring that international aid reaches its intended beneficiaries without being diverted to malicious entities. www.multilinks.biz
