Paying to Help

The Washington Post reports that this week "the Kabul government took the unprecedented move of blocking inbound shipments of fuel and equipment for Afghan security forces." They want the Americans to pay a $70 million fine, alleging that "U.S. contractors hired to transport equipment failed to turn in documentation for billions of dollars in equipment shipped into the country since the 2010 troop “surge.”"

So America has to pay Afghanistan to send in fuel and equipment to help Afghanistan's security forces? Talk about perverse!
