金銭的に ｘｘｘ の面倒をみる、ｘｘｘ の経費を支払う
The context is not completely clear, but I'm thinking of a general situation where a person was either financially dependent or receiving special treatment from another party since there is no object in this sentence.
1) A parent gives financial support to his child by buying a car and clothes and paying for education, for instance.
金銭的（経済的）に ｘｘｘ の面倒をみる
Kinsenteki(keizaiteki) ni xxx no mendoo o miru.
2) If an American businessman visits a company in Japan, they pick up his traveling fees and costs: buying meals and airplane tickets and paying for hotels.
ｘｘｘ の経費を支払う
xxx no keihi o siharau.

Hmmm. your additional example 2) seems to be saying that we financially supported the carnage of the Palestinians by giving them money or arms. In that case, 資金を供給する might work. So, your original question may be translated as ｘｘｘ は彼に資金を供給した. It¥'s possible that they ¥"bought him¥" (bribed him or influenced his mind with money), too.
I saw a title of a book, ¥"Texas Justice, Bought and Paid For¥". They are saying that the justice system was bought by some rich Texans and got financed. In this case, translations such as 買収された and 金で動かされた may work.

買ってあげた
彼らは彼のために（何かを）買ってあげた。
karera wa kare no tame ni (nanika o) katteageta.
Basically, the act of buying is the same notion as that of paying; i.e., the former necessarily include the latter. So, I do not think that we have to express each of those verbs, and doing so makes the sentence sound unnatural as a Japanese sentence.

: The meaning of a word always depends on its usags, contents and the relation with other word. So, your translation is the basic of its meaning here.

加担する
Bought and paid for carnage...hm....Doesn't that mean something like "We contributed to the death／destruction／ruination of...? その二番目のexplanationなのですが購入、支払いなどと言う短絡的なものではこの場合ないはずです。この場合は加担する、貢献する、などその行為に直接的ではなくとも関係する意味の言葉がもっともニュアンスとして正しいものになると思います。
Discussion
1. Are Social Security payments "bought and paid for"?
2. We bought and paid for carnage of Palestinians.
3. So suddenly "bought and paid for" mean nothing.
