Buner, Mingora, etc. are roughly due north of Islamabad though. we're working on getting some new maps (especially for Pakistan), right now we've been settling for the public domain stuff lifted from the CIA World Factbook.

Most of your readers (I hope) know where Pakistan is! I know that you probably relied on others to put a map in the article for you. That was obviously not a good move if you expect your work to have maximum impact. I hate it when I see such shoddy work in an otherwise excellent piece.
