#1 Okay,
I looked at a map.
Sararogha is about 150km south of Islamabad and 150km WNW of Lahore...
This is far from the Afghan border ...
Does Pakiwakiland control ANY of it's territory?

#2 Most of the country's south of Islamabad, 3dc. Sara Rogha is an old British Imperial fortress which was the site of a shocking Pakistani military defeat last year, when a battalion-sized element of Taliban overran the forty-man garrison. From the map here, it's in central South Waziristan, and on the eastern edge of the contested territory.
