I can obviously research some of the points you've raised but it would be helpful to readers for you to provide some context. I don't know what FATA refers to for example, and it's not mentioned in the article you linked either.
- baybal2 5y agoFATA - federally administered tribal areas, aka no rights zone, aka Pakistan's own Pakistan. It used to be a special zone in place of what is the current Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province, in the north of the country, bordering Afghanistan.
- IMAYousaf 5y agoI'm not so sure "no rights zone" is an appropriate framing here. A more appropriate comparison, good and bad, are like Native American Nations inside the US. But we're not talking about small pockets here like reservations. We're talking entire massive, massive areas.
- selimthegrim 5y agoSurely it had the name “ilaqa-ghair” (no man’s land) for a reason
- trhway 5y agoas Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa is mentioned it reminded about "Kesari" - a movie about Battle of Saragarhi i watched recently (it is on Amazon Prime for example)
