It's a very small part of the budget.
If you're talking about real dollars (as opposed to other kinds of assistance), the 2005 budget was about $16 billion, which would equal 0.73 percent of the federal budget.

Depends on what year and what you consider foreign aid.
But in recent year including Iraq, its easily been around $25-30BB.
Iraq has gotten something like $20BB in fgn aid
Israel gets like $2-3BB (but that doesn't include loan guarantees etc.-- with the other stuff its like more like $5BB)
Egypt also gets like $2-3BB
Afghanistan has had something like $2-3BB in the past years.
Those are the major ones-- I'm going from memory here so they're not exact numbers obviously.
