Some US aid has strings attached, sure. A lot of it doesnt.

One example, Africa. We give BILLIONS a year in aid and help to Africa, and we don't have strings attached. It's simply to help stop the spread of AIDS in Africa.

Oh, and who do you think primarily funds the UN and performs duties the UN regulates as necessary? The US provides over 80% of all funding, and military hardware, for the UN.
