Just a comment that the US did this in Afghanistan two decades ago. That time the aid was given by the CIA to bin Laden and his mujihadeen fighters, to help get the Soviets out of Afghanistan. This has now come back to bite them. Back then communism was the big enemy. Today it's the Taliban. Will we replace one set of devils with another? And will it ever end?
