U.S. Is Paying Six Times As Much To Send War Supplies To Troops In Afghanistan

Military supply transportation costs have soared through the roof since Pakistan shut border crossings to NATO convoys. The U.S. is paying six times as much to send war supplies to troops in Afghanistan through alternate routes. The Associated Press reports, the monthly transportation tab tops $100 million. That's up from $17 million per month before Pakistan clamped its border shut in November. Pakistan's action was retaliation for a Coalition air strike that accidentally killed 24 Pakistani soldiers.
