Map amusement

The PakTribune article isn’t amusing for its content: 90 militants killed in S Waziristan clashes.” But the map accompanying the text is solid gold.

The geographic features on that map belong to a different place entirely.

(Spotted in a comment on the Strange Maps blog.)

About Peter Durfee

I'm a translator and editor in Tokyo, where I first came in 1985. I graduated from the American School in Japan and majored in Japanese at UC Berkeley. Now I'm stuck here! It's all right though; I have a wonderful wife and the cutest baby girl on the planet to keep me company. More info on the About page, or you can write me with all your questions.
