letter to nyt--april 4--taliban

To The Editor:

Hold it....let me see if I have this right. While being steadily reminded that our tax returns are due to be filed just ten days from now, we read today that "hundreds of thousands of dollars a week" are being doled out to the people of Marja, Afghanistan, and that our Marine strategy there "depends on sowing this community with buckets of cash."

Can all this possibly be true? Is this a joke, and is it supposed to be funny? What, I ask, gives?

Yours perplexed,
