Funding the Taliban

We, you and I, are helping fund the Taliban in Afghanistan. A few weeks ago we learned that we pay them not to attack our convoys. Now, the Taliban collect revenue from an electrical plant we built and finance. The plant is good for the Taliban in three ways - they make money, there is less money for the "official" government and the power helps the poppy grow.

When do we wise up?
